criminally underrated, perhaps literally
One of the most overlooked composer in 20th century America.
A brilliant composer, just read about him recently! Heartbroken to hear about how he spent his last years, unrecognized by a musical establishment that only recognized his talents far too late.
I hate to see so many negative comments on his work. These comments are usually just calling it crap with no explanation at all.
absolutely beautiful idk why i love this soo much
saw the Julius Eastman Project perform this live in London and it opens up a whole new layer to the work.
We are who we are.
We are *** we are
right here right now
so dedicated to its motif that it made me laugh out loud. Freakishly brilliant
and if you're so smart why aren't you rich, thematically the funniest thing i've ever heard
Interesting for me is how can any music lover skip such a bright composer
Gorgeous composer! Thanks & greetings from Würzburg. Peace!
Listen to Julius’ incredible voice on Peter Maxwell-Davies’ Eight Songs for a Mad King. Stunning.
His vocals are also featured on "Go Bang" by Dinosaur L, one of several collaborations with Arthur Russell
Hi, is someone here for we are who we are?
Sure
Love this. Just listened to documentary on Radio 4 about Eastman. Great & interesting
Lovely lovely lovely
wonderful
He stays on it all right.
Was listening to some Sufjan Stevens just before this song... and it seems like this must've been an influence for some of Sufjan's music.
beautiful thank you !! :)
Lol why the hell do such people comment on this being "shit"..???
This is delightful.
If people have issues with repetition, to simplify, they probably think Bach is shit too 🤣✌
I'll stay on it Eastman, RIP.
dude there's a big difference between bach and this motif. this is do-re-mi looping for 8 minutes straight. it's pretty annoying in my opinion, gets better after the first section.
There will be a performance of his work on Saturday, 12/17/22 @7:30 PM
Benzaquen Hall on 37th street
this LEGIT sounds like...proto-proto-house music. i keep waiting for the beat and bass to come in. this rules
someone really should sample it for something
@@wwmadi I've tried to sample it a few times...it's a very difficult song to sample, and i'm someone who'd like to think i can sample almost anything...
I will also try
@@JackieLombardi embrace the polyrhythms. Then again, would that make it techno? there is a line somewhere, not sure where.
@@wwmadiLoraine James made an album based on Julius Eastman's work, this song is based on this piece ua-cam.com/video/S0FnZOwnbgA/v-deo.html
The work demands good vocalists. Einstein on The Beach has similiar requirement. This would be fun to hear at a dance party. I'd program it.
good
turn up
This would sound right at home on a Sufjan Stevens album, wouldn't it? I've heard him cite - and musically quote - Terry Riley and Philip Glass before. I wonder if he also was into Julius Eastman.
Tune
Thoroughly enjoy his music. Maybe its the era but I find Frank Zapper of a similar ilk, love him too.
Frank Zapper lol
Frank Zapper haha
Очень интересно...
и странно
oh it's so james brown
DOES ANYONE HAVE THE SCORE?!??!?!
Eastman one, music world zero
I have the lyrics if that helps
Ask Tim Leopold; he apparently created an after-the-fact approximation: ua-cam.com/video/e_YauvN9UE4/v-deo.html Tim's FB page: facebook.com/tim.leopold
Then again, what do I know... there are many performances of this now posted; here is a tasty one: ua-cam.com/video/oQgmadIqSv8/v-deo.html
I have :)
I have the impression that the Julius Eastman Legend is far more interesting than his music.
So many bit off of his approach...
And lol no score.

Steve Reich comes to mind. Not hearing anything particularly fascinating here.
If you think about it, they were pretty much contemporary musicians and honestly this work is superior. It doesn't fall under a mere technique aspect as in let's say "Music for 18 musicians" which is a major work by Reich and is made around the same time
You're not supposed to.
Bad take. Eastman is easily on the level of Young, Riley, Reich, Glass, and Cage, but was too progressive and black for the straight/white - dominated Minimalist movement. "Stay on It" is joyous and raucous, qualities that are missing from Minimalism's standard austerity. It takes someone like Eastman to show that minimalism isn't as neutral as it looks. He used it as a tool to express difference, both personal and artistic, rather than similarity.
holy shit you can actually recognize shared musical genealogies, you're so close to actually being able to understand the work, but you're still mired in the mythology of Music History as a linear march of mechanical progress. Eastman's intuitive command of the minimalist idiom was far beyond anything Reich managed to spew forth in his supposedly long and storied career
@@saoirsewojownik830 and your words are empty jism. I'm not mired in anything. We hear stuff differently. And genius...what we "hear" is what our brains were exposed to earlier in life.
blek.
dull and uninteresting
