Every Tame Impala fan loves to repeat the fact that all instruments and vocals, as well as all production, mixing and (some) mastering are by one man, Kevin Parker : )
Wow, had no idea - thanks :)
It's also interesting to know that the people playing are the band, Pond.
@@JACpotatos yes, only in his live shows though !
@@bed7610 the performances are fantastic
@@rpgeebzmusicarcade bonus info, tame impala are from the same city as king gizzard and the lizard wizard AND Karnivool
Tame Impala sounds like something from the future and the past at the same time
The first time I heard them I thought they were a cross between The Beatles, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin with Kevin's voice sounding like John Lennon, yet the music just sounds so fresh.
Retro futurism, it's one hell of a synth-fueled drug for me, nostalgic but futuristic at the same time somehow.
@@greyfox4838 Retro Futurism, that's a new term for me.
@@Alpha_7227 I’m sure youve seen a lot of it just don’t know the term, alot of the world has been inspired and influenced from retro-futurism from the 1800s and 1960s
XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Also definitely do "Let It Happen" by Tame Impala. Life changing song, that ending is insane you'll have to see.
NAILS
that was the song he was reacting to on stream
@@rodricbr jooser?
@@DeSlagen8 damn right!
Yes geebz you have to watch the MV to fully experience it!
Their best song by far... the most meaningful for me at least
Geebz, the album this song comes from, Currents, is probably the best modern psyche album of the last few decades. Listening to it start to finish, especially the first 8 tracks, is an unbelievable sonic journey that is so damn cathartic. The opening track Let It Happen is masterpiece. Listen to it on the beach during sunset to dusk on a beautiful day, you won't be dissapointed.
Glad you said all I had to say 😊 Pure brilliance.
It's an album that defines its time. I knew from the moment I first heard it.
100% agree - been bumping this on a regular basis since it came out 8 (!) years ago. One of my all-time favourite albums. The production on this album is incredible; the drums in particular are crispy as hell. Skull Snaps tried to sue him for using their famous 'It's New Day' break on 'Eventually' but it's all original drums :)
Absolutely perfect pairing, especially considering where the album was mastered. In Yallingup, Western Australia at a studio called the Beach House.
I grew up and live in Western Australia, and have actually been to parties in my younger years where KP and some of the members of Pond would be hanging out in North Perth.
It's a great place to live because some amazing things and people have come from here but it's also such a small population for such a large and diverse state.
In fact, I went to high school and shared home room with Melanie Perkins, she created Canva.
Small town, great vibes.
I remember, not the moment but the feeling I got the first time I heard this song, I wish to feel that again I was completely engaged to the song, melody, lyrics, and psychedelic pop. DAMN. One of my favorite songs of all time.
The Bee Gees influence is so strong with Tame Impala, it's like a modern version of them blended with indie rock instrumentation. So it's not quite an 80s revival, nor a typical indie band, instead it's something completely new, yet the emotional core of it is something we all know intimately within ourselves.
Great to see you listening to Tame Impala! You might be interested to know that "Tame Impala" is actually a single person: Kevin Parker! He writes all the songs, sings, and performs all the instruments! Also, I'd highly recommend the track : "Let It Happen" from the same album
_d i d y o u k n o w t h a t t a m e i m p a l a i s j u s t o n e g u y ?_
He also produces everything.
8:25
In samba, usually played with a seven strings guitar, a very commom thing to do is what we brazillians call "baixarias", where between some verses as a counterpoint, the player do some bass lines in the 7th string, just like Kevin do.
An good example for it's in the verses of Cartola's "Preciso me encontrar"
It's certainly an unconventional pick, but my favorite Tame Impala track has always been Powerlines off of their B-Sides and Rarities album. It's all vibes and mixing shenanigans, I love it.
seriously an amazing and underrated song
Powerlines is so freaking good, always one of my favorites
I think it's one of the best produced pop song of recent years. For me only Daft Punk's "Giorgio by Moroder" comes close
Agreed
While hes not really my cup of tea for vocals, the production on this as well as the dreamy aesthetic about the effects on his voice are phenomenal, very well crafted.
Check out some of his early songs like Half Full Glass of Wine, he sings much differently, I like it more.
Loved the first bit of analysis; insane depth and attentiveness to pretty much everything that was going on from listening only to the first 1 minute 😂👍
Really great breakdown! You helped me hear parts of the track I'd never noticed before like the guitar arpeggiation at the end.
Thank-you for your incredibly insightful analysis of Kevin's work, I really enjoyed the music theory/terminology as a classically trained musician myself! :D
its crazy, its got an ambiance all of its own. verry catchy tune.
You NEED to hear "let it happen" it's a masterpeice, but also "new person same old mistakes" and "eventually" on the same album. please listen to those three. They are phenomenal. Truly masterpieces.
yah! I'd love for him to check on "new person same old mistakes"
@@zerbina that one is peak bro
Let It Happen is wonderful
Woo! Love this break from the OST stuff. Brilliant.
Man I remember this girl showed me this song in 2015 in the midwest, we were almost in love for like 2 days and then time happened and we kept running into each other in different cities but the spark never turned into fire... Reminds me of those days
Anything else happen?
Boy was this a chill piece of music
If this was enjoyable, something like the song "Hunnybee" by Unknown Mortal Orchestra would be a fun little ride :) Yall can yes this if you know lol
that painting in your side is so dope !!!
Grateful Dead!!!!
I love that you reviewed this song. Hope you listen to some more of the album 😊
This is one of my FAVOURITE songs ever!!!!
David Gilmore had said one time in a interview that Tame Impala is the Pink Floyd of this new era
I've been waiting for a tame impala song on this channel forever. I can't even suggest a song because they're all fantastic
I could have sworn I watched a video a couple weeks ago with this guy doing a reaction/review of "Elephant" he did 3 years ago. 😂😂😂
No idea how this came on my feed but glad I watched it. Do some more music reviews my man! I loved listening to you breakdown one of my favorite songs and would love to hear your takes on bands like The Arcs or Greta Van Fleet!
Love him, I saw him live a month ago at Lollapalooza on crutches!! (poor guy, couldn´t let us fans down)
Love Tame Impala, I usually listen to his stuff at the gym. Let it Happen is one of my favs.
This is probably more appropriate to ask on your main channel, but I'd love if you did a reaction to HOME - Resonance!
LOVE me some Tame Impala, excited to see how you feel about it~
Love the Dead artwork !
I really enjoyed this reaction! I just wanted to share a fun fact that the intro bass line is actually played on a guitar with an octave pedal to make it sound like a bass. It definitely adds to it's uniqueness!
It sounds like a bass for the whole song until you hear it isolated at the start
The most amazing thing is that Kevin Parker not only wrote and performed but ENGINEERED this song.
Just for a heads up, if no one has said. Tame Impala is just a singular person for the most part, Kevin Parker. He mixes a lot of those songs. He does play with a band live but for the most past that is all him
Fantastic analysis of one of the best bands of the last decades. Long live Kevin Parker!
7:16 - this is the best part of the song imo (growing from 7:00).
Great review! your reaction at 5:18 is 100% the same as mine.
Would love to see you react to let it happen
Yes please do more by Tame Impala! Kevin Parker is the GOAT
That bass sound was actually the acapela unplugged baseline from when he was grabbing the line from his imagination and didn't even take time to plug it in 😱☺️🏆
ua-cam.com/video/sTL5FZQveMI/v-deo.htmlsi=uQBMRzQDITCZhT0g
whats insane about this song is the fact that kevin played everything and i mean EVERYTHING but the drums on his guitar, the piano and synths and bass are all done with the roland gk3 synth pickup on a squier j mascis jazzmaster and processed through roland's mk-55 guitar synthesizer, the bass is the p-bass setting on that run through overdrive and i believe he said chorus and compression. the rhodes were played on guitar which is why the inversions are interesting on it and the synths were also done by guitar. kevin wrote this album while traveling a lot so he didnt have access to most his gear so he recorded almost everything on guitar.
Listen to New Person, Same Mistakes.
Kevin is very knowledgeable about drum and synth sounds, love to hear him speak about that in interviews
7:16 hit a feeling in there. That part of the song is very melancholy.
The main riff is fun to play on the bass
listen to apocalypse dreams! kevin’s second album lonerism is a psychedelic rock/pop masterpiece. to be honest, his first 3 are fantastic, his fourth was great.
A great take on one of my favourite songs. Since I'm new to this channel, I'm sure you've explaied this before, but what is "sissle (sizzle?) on the bass?
His most recent album, The Slow Rush, is full of really cool bangers
Love this song and love your insights. This whole album is great, definitely recommend you check it out. FYI - Tame Impala is one Australian guy, Kevin Parker, and I've heard that he writes and records everything himself in studio and then brings in musicians when in goes on tour.
My elderly ears have been listening to TI since 2012 ❤
I see that Mr. Geebz is getting closer to reacting to Macintosh Plus 420... Considering that you've listened to this song it's getting closer to vaporwave genre of music.
React to more tame Impala, you’ll be mind blown by Let it Happen, New Person Same old Mistakes, Mind Mischief, etc all of his music is fantastic
Love the new albums from Tame Impala (I consider this a new album, even though it's been seven years since the release of this track) - but I gotta say, I love his first couple albums even more - they're grungier, more "alt", less electronic. Kevin Parker does it all and keeps doing it, and I'm here for it all.
Does this guy realize just one person? I dont think so Which I appreciate. Cool videos
This is great man. love your style of reacting. Tame impala is the goat.
I'd love to see your take on The Dripping Tap by King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard or Slow by black midi
Thanks for reacting to Tame Impala. This song is brilliant advertising for Tame Impala's entire discography. His junior album "Currents" is cosy and an absolute classic.
Do some of The Strokes! I recommend "Selfless" or "The Adults Are Talking" it's their new album, which is different to their earlier stuff, and it's very chill, deep, yet retrospective.
NAAAAAIIILLLLSSS
He mixed this song himself... and played all the instruments
Kevin Parker's a fukn GENIUS.
I wish people had recommended something weirder, I love that song but it's one of his poppiest and it's be fun to see him react so something way more out of left field. :p
I love this. Often we just hear music and don’t think about every detail. But you going over all the effects, bass, etc it really shows how creative and detailed Kevin is at creating amazing songs.
Man you stay uploading music I love. Tame Impala is amazing! They're on a newer track called New Gold by Gorillaz, which is worth a listen. Also, Oil by Gorillaz ft. Stevie Nicks is a phenomenal track all around.
Who’s they?
@William Majkut right he's one person oops. Glad we got that settled so he knows what in talking about xD
7:16 was a moment
These dudes are from where i am... Western Australia... Actually a pretty solid amount of musicians and the odd actor from here considering we are pretty isolated with a low population.
John Butler
Inxs
Tame impala
Acdc's Bon Scott is buried here
Eskimo joe
Pendulum
Drapht (a rapper, he recently did some of his earlier songs with the WA symphony orchestra which was cool)
Think Isla Fisher moved back here with Sacha (or at least she had for a time over covid)
Ben Elton (writer of the young ones lives here)
Looking forward to you doing "One More Hour" possibly?
Love TI
You should definitely listen to runway houses city clouds by tame impala
Awesome stuff mate. Can you do another video about Let It Happen, also made by Tame Impala? That song is a sound engineering masterpiece. Pretty, please
You should listen to Lost in yesterday and borderline
Sounds good when your baked too
What doesn’t? But, yes, this especially.
i JUST noticed the dragon in the back
If you were to guess between 1 and 5 how many people were in this band how many people would you guess are in it?
You are a genius
Kevin Parker is amazing.
What’s the gnarly looking puppet in the background?! I must have one!
It's my "Terror" Dactyl - I'm a ventriloquist and I use it for performances :)
Oh please do, would love to see your style breakdowns of
King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard - Dripping Tap
All Them Witches - Rats in Ruin
Psychedelic Porn Crumpets - Found God in a Tomato
Would absolutely love his take on The Dripping Tap
reminder to listen to
Do EVERY TRACK from Lonerism :) Tame Impala (aka Kevin Parker) are amazing.
what's that art on your wall?
You should listen to the 300:rise of an empire themistocles theme. It's so incredible
Love the album, love the song, but for me it’s the Lonerism album all the way baby 🤟😎
i love adam sandler
"Old" Composer? 😂 Love the title!
World music appreciation, criticism... I mean... I wonder how that might change the impact and reach to the existing community and future newcomers 🤔
I really enjoyed your review of this song! I myself enjoy Tame Impala very much so it was definitely a pleasant experience
I don't mind the title of your channel, if I could recommend something it would be to have consistent branding across your channels "KeyofGeebz" "GeebzWorldReview"
I also don't want to give you the impression you're doing anything wrong, as long as your enjoying yourself is all that matters..
But, if editing this video, in post I would recommend splicing the specific moments in songs that you're referencing when you pause to review - for example when talking about the sizzling of the Bass, splicing in 4-12 seconds of footage of the song itself will let listeners know exactly what you're referencing
(Useful for helping viewers with untrained ears)
Regardless, thanks for being you & hope you enjoy your coffee!
WMR with Geebz?
Top 3 songs of the 21st Century
Aw dude
Check out PLOK OST
Some of the tracks are amazing
Is that an M audio 88es?
Tame Impala (Kevin Parker), "That song originally I thought shouldn't be on a Tame Impala album, because it has this dorky, white disco funk. I wouldn't call it cheesy, but it's not trying to be too cool, because the lyrics are pretty dorky and the groove is pretty dorky. But at the same time, for me, I love that kind of music. I don't know why, but I've been obsessed with disco for the last year or two."
It’s not a band the songs are sung, played and produced by one person witch it the coolest aspect of tame impala
You need to hear Scary Pockets with Elise Trouw's cover of this. I actually prefer it...
skeleton art is dope.
React to Garou's theme "I'm a monster" next
React to LiFA from Hielung!
Watch the video for this song; it’s great
Ahh. Tame Impala. I feel a bit bad I don’t tune in unless I know the uh… Tune. I know Tame Impala though.
🤔 maybe Geebz music arcade?
Every Tame Impala fan is nodding their head agreeing with all the technical explanations not understanding what you’re actually saying because that’s just what our culture is lol. We understand there is something great about him, but most of us are not even close to knowing the real reasons why, and we’re sometimes a bit snobbish about it.
More people should learn music theory and they'll under the production techniques Kevin employs
I got a doozy for you Geebsy. Go perk your ears up to a cool track called Night Vision by Mareux. It's haunting and beautiful.
Please react to Norman F***ing Rockwell by Lana Del Rey
Can you plss react to "California Dreamin', from The Mamas and the Papas?? thank you ^^
please, react to Siberian Breaks by MGMT
