I still think this is the pinnacle of Plini's work
Perfect driving music. Especially in the summer, right before or during dusk with the windows down on an open road in a rural area, hand out the window feeling the air massage your skin and smile on your face, time stops in these moments.
Nice image- thanks
You don't live in Arizona. Your hand would melt off
i know you posted this 3 years ago, but i would like to sugest the band intervals, they are also instrumental and have to be in your road trip playlist. the best songs from them are, in my opinion, libra (feat. plini btw) and fable. absolutely recommend
I live in a rural community and I felt this comment.
@@Eat_m3 same dude
I googled you after coming across this only to find that you have a masters in architecture. As an freshman architecture student who loves to listen to and make music, you inspire the shit out of me dude.
Ryan Hoppe Wow! I didn't know Plini had masters in architecture. I'm an architecture student too but I have zero talent and time in making music. Just have intense love and appreciation for great music!
This is so wholesome! He also inspired me when I was into technic school. Now I hate it and I only want to start my own studio and work as a producer, It´s more fun!
Are you still in architecture school? Because I am in my freshman year, and it's really hard, and I just want to do some music stuff actually
he is the architect
That explains how he builds such awesome riffs
That solo from Opening is god-tier. One of the best I've ever heard...
Just gave a standing ovation alone in my bedroom
I gave exactly one hoot and one enthused holler
10 years later and I'm still here applauding bro👏
Just found this today
Where have I been without this?
you have seen the light. now go and proclaim the word.
Done. But my mother got me back home :(
Done. But my mother got me back home :(
When you get to the last 2 minutes of this it's like hell no, it can't end. Gotta play it again.
Praise the Loop feature !
I know 💜💜💜
still one of my fav sections of any Plini song
Just now discovering this. Where the hell have I been! This is incredible!
+needdles1 he is an unreal musician! Super kind too.
Well this was a nice suggestion from youtube. Thanks for this music, Plini!
thats funny because i showed this song to my friend and he was like "i know this band but how do you know this band/guy?!?!" i was like "i have no idea, youtube just recommended this song for me and i dont listen to this type of music" anyways... Plini is awesome
Also recommended to me by youtube... holy shit this is beautiful
for me the only thing youtube recommends is fat korean guy videos...
mmmeee that just might be because you watch a lot of fat korean guy videos...
Lol youtube also recommended me this but I think it's because I listen to a band called Polyphia
How have I not discovered THIS WORK OF PURE GENIUS until now?!
I am so disappointed I am unable to buy a physical copy of this. :( :( :(
Porcupethtonia
Tell me about it..... i can't stop listening to it and i refuse to have a digital copy i want a physical copy......
Mathieu lepage Why won't they take my money?!
Porcupethtonia You can donate on his bandcamp page I'm sure =D GO DO IT
sooner than me :p
very talented bro just bought your album. keep up the good work!
thank you!
+Plini your opening reminds me of some Nujabes and I love it.
+Cody Tozier Awesome, Nujabes lives on!
+Plini Incredible! Ordered my Cd and T package today :)
+Cody Tozier you have excellent taste in music sir
Still in love with Sweet Nothings
Sounds like a cross between Guthrie Govan and Tosin Abasi. Too epic for words!
instrumental ambient djent fusion?
MrMelodyCold I don't really see the djent in it, but well.
MrMelodyCold DJENT IS NOT A GENRE! Let the comment-wars begin!
Daan van Beek Of course it's not...I don't hear any djent-ish sound....
i don't care how much sound like "this guy" or "this not genre" i like this EP and the war that i am involve is the war to get a physical copy of the EP cuz in my country is to expensive get it + it's sold out.
Gotta say as a producer/composer myself that the reverb settings are just incredible. It's one of the things I always tend to focus on while listening to a track, where instruments are placed, how long their reverb tail is, how big the hall etc. Great work! Also your midi programming skills are on a very high level, you managed to make everything sound very realistic and organic-like! Guess I'm a fan now? Yeah!
RidvanDuzey I'd like to better understand audio production for my own playing, can you provide any tips/resources?
inhale mixing tutorials, youtube has plenty of them.
take the time to really learn EQ and compression so you have a solid foundation.
understand things sound different on different speakers so learn to cross-reference and use reference tracks.
This is programmed?
Can you recommend some good ones?
acording to description it was recorded and mixed in his bedroom. So cheers to that.
Music ain't dead. It's just evolving.
And evolving fast. The internet has provided a fantastic place for people who make unconventional music to share their stuff with people who like to listen to unconventional music.
You just need to know where to look
so is my upside-down goldfish
Internet killed the video star! =P
well put
Plini must have a beautiful soul. This is divine music.
This is literally too good. I don't even want to listen to it every day cuz I want it to stay new and exciting whenever I re-listen
This guy is a GENIUS!
This is the best study music
***** Not according to the standings : /
+Jake 1 i think you'd find overly complex/progressive music is worse off
I can't study to this cause I cant focus on anything else 😂😂
If you want some real bomb study music you gotta go check out some gastrointestinal bleeding or maybe some spilling entrails.
Very calm and soothing stuff 😉
Plini doesn't deserve to be background noise
I've already commented that video, but I'm so in love with this EP...
Hell yeah
this is the best thing ever to be created by man.
Alex Gonzalez check out gru cosmogenesis too!!
wasn't it porn?
This IS porn.
Tumor askjaskajs for musicians, this IS porn
There is a lot of young people out there, I myself fell in a period where I listened to a bit of the not so good core bands, although I had started listening to core bands starting my last year in middle school I started socializing with other people that listened to the same genre in high school and also started influencing other people which made me come back to the genre many times even after I thought I had enough... many times this type of not so good music is the gate to great music like this... I mean how are you gonna listen to music as good as this if you don't know any better? Let other people find their way and those that will just not have any of this type of good music let them be.... I mean what if this type of music became super popular and overplayed and artist kept repeating the same idea? then it wouldn't be so precious... I want these artists to succeed but for now I am happy if they are part of the "underground" Tosin Abasi himself used to be in a metalcore band..... not forgetting that there are some good metalcore bands specially the classic ones....
Demiigodd been saying this for years. Totally agree
Chilling with a cigar, sake, and the beautiful night sky, accompanied with these wonderfully composed melodies.
Cheers!
Is it wrong to say that listening to this makes me want to rethink about life and re-imagine my perspective about the universe?
Majestic Banana no :)
If that's wrong, I don't wanna be right
Music can touch your very Soul. It will compass you about if you let it. I do. So no. Your not Wrong. The Universe is a Big Place. This Music is Totally Mindblowing. Keep listening.
wow, this kind of bands and music deserver to be famous
Haha the best part is that this was pretty much done by just one person
200K views, they already are.
Grahfx bro...hardly
Wow this is amazing stuff. I always seem to find the coolest music when I'm on the internet instead of sleeping haha. This is fucking beautiful
Michael Z Martin Can't get over how good this is. I literally said "Wow" out loud to myself. Beautiful and Wow are the only words that come to mind haha
Hahaha same here man
Studies show that you're more likely to find music when not sleeping. . . I think. But you're possibly more likely to become inspired to create music while sleeping and dreaming.
Michael Z Martin way more diferent than usual prog metal right? Finally i've seen something so naturally beautiful in the style. And brutally beautiful in the same time.
16:34 reference to the first song of the trilogy, Heart. I love how this man brings some song into others by mixing in a little riff of a song into another. And there's also the hook of The end of Everything appears everywhere in the trilogy as a Plini watermark. Masterpiece!
That lick was originally in Selenium Forest, I think. I also noticed that some of the melodies in "Tarred and Feathered" seemed like a precursor to Inhale from Handmade Cities.
His trademark lick, I mean.
also you can hear the main theme of sweet nothings on paper moon (minute 5:50) and right after that the keyboards plays heart riff's, then at 6:17 reference to away and then the ''Plini lick'' on the end of the song miming selenium forest solo (if you play guitar you can try to play selenium forest solo instead of paper moon solo and it will fit nice ahah). he's just a genius composer
and also, on paper moon, when the song ends you can hear that same ''metronome thing'' that you hear in the very beginning of heart, it's like it end where it started
9 years and Im still coming back here
I can't believe this is mostly Plini. Amazing. Way to blow some minds!
*****
Programmed or not, it sounds amazing.
***** including bass?
Brilliant nonetheless.
Ehem. The piano in Sweet Nothings is not 'programmed'! ; )
Love this EP. :)
it blows my mind that i've never heard this before. it was a random click too...I'm blown away
this is a masterpiece, i will have to come back and listen while sober, im sure i'll love it again
how did it go
Legend says the man never sobered up
u never did though.
I confirm there were plenty of replays sober and not-so-much, still a banger 10/10
Away is a unique piece of art. Plini you are Amazing!!!
The guitar sound on this EP is perfection.
I remember finding this when it first came out, I was 15 and it completely changed the way I played guitar and how I wantd to sound as a guitarist. Its awesome to come back and listen to this masterpiece again.
what I love about this its the smoothly jazzy stuff and not the extreme math. I love the melodies. keep it uppppppppppppppppp.
Talk about mood enhancement at it's best.
+Michael Magill -- perfectly put
Holy shit!
Im so grateful to this video because I just stumbled upon it and through it found another 5 band's.
So now im definitely on the instrumental scene as before this I'd only heard aal

I began listening some Beyond Creation, I do not know how I got here but this is really impresive.
Every time I start listening to DM I eventually get around to prog stuff, too. Btw, Beyond Creation rules, too. ; )

3:27 and onward is one of the best guitar solos I've ever heard... Amazing work!!
this is really inspirational
Tarred & Feathered has such a crazy tropical sound I've never heard in this type of music before, but somehow it works out wonderfully
Crap. Listened to this album again. Now it'll be stuck in my head for weeks. Many guitars. Such sound. What do.
I saw Plini and Intervals play together in Calgary and it was so sick. Plintervals \m/
Troy Wright!!!
Did you go ot the clinic?
No, I didn't know there was a clinic. I just went to their concert a couple weeks ago
~whooosh
Caught them in Kansas City last night. Sooooo good.
This is the type of music I hear in my head all the time, it's so scary to have found this, I love your work Plini!
When I listen to the song at 8:22, I close my eyes and try to doze off. Then these random images appear in my head, like quick flashbacks of unrelated events from a movie. I have to be completely relaxed and almost in a meditative state. It's awesome.
Such an exciting yet relaxing album. "Tarred and Feathered" is a piece of pure art.
It's so fantastic that these days, there are so many talented young musicians who share their music via new media. There's so much to explore and get inspired by! For example this fantastic EP :)
plini everything else
plini notplini
The new binary code.
notplini notplini equal plini
igual prefiero the end of everything mil veces
Agustin Magne vos decis? a mi este me gusta aun mas..aunque "the end of everything" tiene paper moon que sinceramente te lleva a otra galaxia
Best part from 15:09 to the end. Especially that attack at 15:20. Rock on!
god what a genius
Discovered you today, and I've gotta say, this music is outstanding! Beautiful and intricate on so many levels! I love unique and non-cliche compositions, which are so rare in the music industry today, so all I have to say is thank you! You've earned my subscription for reviving my faith in music ;)
This is amazing. I have to support this.
So happy to have come across this. Wonderful
today is much better then it started out, now that I've discovered a new artist its now a damn good day and some really fuckin good music.
you are so talented, Plini. nowadays ichika nito is pretty popular as a guitarist and indeed he’s very gifted and i should be partial to him as i’m Japanese too, but to me your songs have a soul touching feature no artist has yet to replicate to this day in my opinion. not to mention you’re also an amazing producer.
i’m only capable of singing, and i’ve tried many times to learn musical instruments but it’s just not in me. i feel jealousy and admiration for musicians like you. i do feel many times that singing is an inferior form of music, even though i know there’s no such thing. i do wish you were as famous as prominent singers or even some guitarists are. to me you will always be on my top 3 best musicians of all time.
This what I live for. ProgRock with Jazz elements. Beautifully made. Such songs get more different and unique each time someone plays it.
Disney Jazzcore If you haven't heard his stuff yet, check out Owane, his ep Greatest Hits has a lot of great happy, djazz-y music!
I will, thankyou
Man.. this takes me back to being a university student and having this album on repeat constantly while studying. Such an amazing piece of art. Although I feel sad now. Being a student was easy.
Man, I don't oftenly comment to compliment the artists but this is too good to not to. You're all truly amazing.
03:27 - 04:37 This is the BEST guitar-solo I've heard in my life!
Thats wasn't plini's solo actually. Guest guitarist. It's in the description.
@@crowing3886 yeahp that's by GRU. epic solo!
The sweet nothings riff has fueled me even before i started playing prog metal on guitar
Just such an eargasm at 15:19
Hey, I share the exact same feeling!
Absolutely love how he blends the opening riff of Heart in Sweet Nothings!
I've been listening to Plini since 2014. I don't even remember how I came across it. But I can without a doubt say that his music can be jammed to at all times and it will never get old. Plini's music has given me rushes of euphoria even with a sober mind. I will go to every show. Until the day he stops making music, which I pray never never comes. We all appreciate and love you Plini!
Plini, I rarely comment on RUclips. This is the best thing I've herd recently.
I will look for your album to buy it.
GREAT...
This whole thing is absolutely magnificent. His overdrive tone from that AxeFxII really has me swooning ..
Egg Master jajaja, many people thinks that everyone uses AxeFX but truth is that not everyone use them.
Best Instrumental Bands...
Animals as Leaders
Plini
Chon
Scale The Summit
Polyphia
Intervals /They were instrumental got a singer now they are instrumental
The Aristocrats?
Also God Is An Astronaut, but it's a biy softer (more Post-Rock)
Their dogs were astronauts is so good too!
James Beck Exivious...
liquid tension experiment,,,duh
The last song is such a time stopper it’s still as amazing today as I heard it 6 years ago...
just found you from listening to CHON and wow is all I have to say why the hell haven't I heard of you yet?!!?
Beautiful work my man
+Darren Newberry SUBSCRIBED
+Darren Newberry fucking same.
Me too 😛
You are my friend's absolute favourite composer and I can see why! Good work and keep it up, would love to see you live or maybe be part of what you're doing, this is just magic.
Definitely love Plini. The acoustic harmonics in Tarred and Feathered are so Antoine Dufore.
You get a little bit of everything listening to this wonderful genius 😎
Been a while since I have tuned into this masterpiece. Continue making music like this forever, and leave behind your legacy of beauty for all to revel in.
Holy wow - this is honestly some of the best music I've heard in years / like vai chops ?!?! Refreshing to know this exists - Plini you're a Jedi bro keep cranking - love it -
wow.
When I first found this EP, and I read through all the comments that praised Paper Moon to high heaven, I didn't get it. To me, it just sounded like another Plini song. But then I really sat down, and I listened to the damn thing, and now I start to cry whenever I hear it. Jesus, it's that good.
Plini, I don't know if you'll ever read this comment, but I came along your music at a very pivotal and uncertain point in my life that is still playing out at the time of this writing, and your music stands in my heart not only as an anchor keeping me buoyant and safe in this time but also as a reminder of it, of the change I'm going through and how amazing that change is.
Know that to me and many others, your music is more than just music. You have inspired us and you have helped us and you have kicked ass while doing so.
Thank you.
wait oof wrong ep
hey this one is still hella dope
Still the best all these years later.. plini, ive been with you since this was released and as far as u have come this still is my favorite... memories..
The riff that kicks in in sweet nothings makes me cry. Seriously well done man. Pure emotion poured into here.
Hey , I just wanted to say that your music got me through a very difficult part of my life. When I hear your music, I close my eyes and take a trip and all the problems go away for a while. Thank you. Keep it up, you're great.
Whoa, Dude, this is wonderful music. Tarred and Feathered blew me away. My new favorite thing. Fucking bravo, Man.
That song is just beyond amazing. Totally one of my top 10
I just found this 5 minutes ago and everything you've written is the best I've heard in years
This is so intense yet so soothing. Love the harmonies in the first song.
nothing like going back to Plini's classic trilogy
Wish he'd put "Opening" on a live show someday, fantastic track.
The music and compositon gets better the more and more I listen... INCREDIBLE!!!
I love the subtle static and the little noises that the album leaves you with. It brings a nostalgic peace with it
its 2019 and I just found my new favourite song! Merry Christmas everybody
I searched Jazz Metal and this is what I got. Can’t say I’m disappointed.
maybe try blotted science...little bit heavier, but no less cerebral for it.🎶🤘
Tarred & Feathered is my go to song for when i'm feeling down. thank you so much for the music you share with the world. truly inspiring.
Stephen Taranto's solo on Away... just love that aggressive entrance... and that tone
Absolutely fantastic album!
2:03 - It's like jumping off a cliff with wings and be sent into the clouds as the sun sets in the distance.
everything about this ep is so good, met plini in september and he was a straight up cool dude. keep shredding bro, your tunes are inspiring to guitarists everywhere
I'm so glad I happen to stumble upon your music because I can't explain how much I love it. You all are very talented
Tarred and feathered is my favorite
Keep up the good work
amazing composition, they have everything sound and musicallity
Wow, amazing structuring, composition and mixing. I love it. This EP makes me want to progress as a musician. I'd love to write stuff like this someday as well. :D
The ending of Sweet Nothings when it transitions will ALWAYS give me chills, love you Plini
I love going for a walk on a summer night listening to these, thank you guys.
Listen to this on LSD. My God. Its like a crystal ball that you can reach into and once your inside you wont ever want to leave. Plini is love
Getting that feeling totally sobre men.
i doubt it :l
RadddahTat Someone doesn't have to do drugs to have an imagination? NO THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
there's a different between imagination and having all your senses heightened to the point were you dont even have to imagine, its just there in front of your face. You can actually feel the beauty, hear everything piece by piece, and get taken almost out of body.. if you can do that through imagination youre doin somethin
HikariNoNanaki
***** no one said i needed drugs, i just happened to be on LSD and wanted to listen to Plini..
This is some pretty cool stuff. Very atmospheric while still having a driving melody and pacing to it. Reminds me of some of Guthrie Govan's stuff on his Erotic Cakes LP. Glad I stumbled upon this.
Thank you so much, Plini. Your music make me feel in love with life itself.
You are creating universes, second to second.
NO WAY... that echo of Heart in Sweet Nothings blew my mind! That was the songs that introduced me to your work. Fantastic stuff!
