Wow, totally new for me too. A little hard for me to separate the quirky un-synced visuals from the music so I just closed my eyes and enjoyed the always wonderful Dirty Loops sound.
Wow, knowing before the DL cover, just learnt that it's actually a cover of Utada Hikaru song, well... too many missing chords 😃😃😃 not easy to move from DL cover to the original one!
I think that’s Simon Petrén. Basically the fourth member of DL. He’s pretty accomplished as well. 😆 “Simon Petrén (born 14 March 1986) is a Swedish music producer, songwriter, mix engineer and mastering engineer. He holds a Diploma in Piano Music Performance at the Royal Schools of Music in London and a Bachelor degree in Film Scoring and Music Production at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm.”
Another early song with magic playing, especially Henrik, (published 6 years ago) you should react to "Sayonara Love": ua-cam.com/video/Fnl6DMR7Jaw/v-deo.html Different video production quad squares alternating the members. Thanks for your awesome reactions! 👍
Jeff. Love your Dirty Loops reactions. Some of my faves. Are you familiar with Charlie Hunter? I'd absolutely love to see your reaction to this: ua-cam.com/video/k-ZokObk3ic/v-deo.html
@@NoTengoIlusiones Come as you are...great take...saw them perform it live at Yoshi's in Oakland, CA. It's really difficult to find good live video of them performing, which bums me out...
You’re correct Micael. For some reason there was a Japanese version of Loopified and it included some additional songs, of which Automatic is one. The album is incredibly difficult to find and Automatic is only available on the Japanese version of Spotify.
@@florida0092 I bought the Japanese version of the album because it was available first. I'd heard enough of their covers and I was too obsessed to wait for the U.S. version. Glad I did too. I ended up with this tune. I love this like I love all the others. The original tune (by Utada Hikaru) is very much just an R&B slow jam. This is...not...LOL!
@@Nostaljack That’s awesome, I went as far as trying to hack Spotify into believing I was in Japan and then get the album onto my playlist. Where’s the Beat is another gem on that one. A crazy slap-you-in-da-face song that is impossible to categorize.
I just read that Automatic is a cover of a Utada Hikaru song. So strange! I was about to write in the live chatt that the chorus reminds me of another song. I now I know why! I have her album..! 😃 She is a famous singer in Japan Ps. Here is one live performance with her: ua-cam.com/video/JSb_x5lJ5DQ/v-deo.html
Yeah, I totally agree. This is part infusing pop like music with more complex chordal stuff, part sneaking jazzy stuff into the mainstream. It's kinda like Charlie Puth sneaking in five note chords or like major11 chords into songs that are obviously pop, or Jacob Collier sneaking wonky grooves or phrygian licks into his latest songs. Even if this isn't these guys' intention, it sure is nice to listen to.
I love all music but lean towards Prog. I have to thank the covid lock down for expanding my appreciation for bands i would not normally listen to. The first time i heard Snarky Puppy was a game changer. While i dont always love everything you or other reactors highlight, i always go in now with an open mind. That is how i stumbled upon DL. I never knew that Jazz Pop Fusion was something i was missing. I'm ok with Pop music when the musicianship is this high and i dont know that i consider DL pop. Current music on the radio does little for me and i find my self on the "Oldies" stations - the 80s and 90s lol.
I have wondered why No One has reacted to this song. First Time I heard this was about two years Ago I think. Not My favorite from DL, but a really Good pop song.
Here I was thinking that I had heard them all but you found a missing piece. Thank you so much! You know that I like your reaction and that was a perfect start on this evening.
Another great reaction! I don't know if you're into Gino Vannelli or not, but if so, would you consider reacting to songs from his very jazz influenced Yonder Tree CD, or the live versions from his Live in LA DVD of either Brother To Brother or Appaloosa ( there are live videos from that DVD up on UA-cam... thank you!)
Years ago I listened to Gino A LOT! Loved his light and intelligent compositions and arrangements, typical italian approach in a way similar to Pino Daniele.
@@matto9734 ...I saw him at the Jacksonville Coliseum in FL in 1978 I think it was. It was one of the better sounding show's I've even attended. The entire band was hot hot.
@Ben , I could not agree more on Gino Vannelli, a very underrated singer. Unfortunately he got some visibility when he moved on "rocky" Black Cars, I'm quite sure he did just to try to get a bit more of success...way far from Brother to Brother, thats the GV flagship! In my channel you may see a couple of video I took by myself in Italy and France live concert
I'm in tune with the comments below. Such an amazing band but who is the mystery man in the background who plays brilliant keys support to Jonah on keys but never seems to get any credit. I know Kristian Kraftling is one session player for them. are there others I wonder?
Yeah, they've had different auxilliary keyboard players for their live gigs. Kristian Kraftling is, I think, the one who's been with them the most, but this looks like it could be Arvid Svenungsson. Their mixer/co-producer Simon Petrén has played with them a fair bit, and there has been some other keyboard players as well. I guess it's all up to who is available at the time of the live gigs. They do get some credit though, as DL always presents them by name when doing the live gigs, and also has them bow with them when recieving the applauses after the gig.
This was new to me, too - so thank you, Jeff. I think it is one of Dirty Loops strengths to make technical music listenable to a broader audience. Cheers! 🙋
I hope you'll get around to that GEM video (with Eldar Djangirov, Matt Garstka, and Henrik Linder) I recommended a while ago! Torque is the one I recommended, as it's my favorite of the ones they uploaded: ua-cam.com/video/M3NfCWMwayA/v-deo.html There's two more though, that are even crazier, and definitely worth reacting to as well!

Late to the premiere, but I hadn't heard this one either. Which begs the question... OMFG! WHAT ELSE IS OUT THERE THAT I'VE MISSED?! WE WANT IT ALL, FELLAS! EVERY NOTE YOU'VE EVER PLAYED OR SANG IN YOUR LIFETIMES! Lol! 😂
I think these guys are pop-y enough in that Jacksonian way so that most pop fans probably won't even realize they've been progged. The more difficult accomplishment, in my estimation, is to get us snobs whose bar was set way high by Zappa and King Crimson to jump out of our seats screaming, "WTF!!!" and dance our ancient asses off!
Years ago I stumbled over Henrik and saw one song of a life gig somewhere on YT. I thought "what an incredible Bass player" but what is he doing in a full blown Pop band! ;-) It must have been a song like this and I only heard the "surface" lol

Hahaha I know it’s a little unsettling
Thanks for the info. All,these temp keyboard players are stars on their own right.

...as usual ;-)
Notice the "other keyboard" player lurking in the background.. Apparently usual on live tracks.
Ya I caught that too 👍

The cover of this song by Koiai is actually better than the original
I consider Dirty Loops to be a perfect band. everything they do is stellar!
Oh my God.Dirty Loops turn my mind crazy.I can believe the talent they show up all the time,every song.They are the best.
I think this song come from the Japanese version of the "Loopified" album. It is a cover of a song from some Japanese artist .

The musical movement inside the vocal melody is outstanding

I was sure I had listen to everything they had done but apparently not….
Great stuff! Really
❤️
Growing up with the original version of Utada Hikaru, this was a really good example of how to make it like it's their own song.
Absolutely!

Gino doesn't get a lot of love in the reaction world. Wilburn Reacts has done a couple, and that's about it that I've seen.
Years ago I listened to Gino A LOT! Loved his light and intelligent compositions and arrangements, typical italian approach in a way similar to Pino Daniele.

I believe it's part of the Loopified collection. Automatic is another fave!!!!
Looking forward to seeing this one;) I am all cued up at work and ready to go at lunch:)

I really think the term “Chops Pop” may be an appropriate way to describe a lot of Dirty Loops tunes! Great video again, thanks for sharing!
Hahaha I like that!
actually you should totally react to Utada Hikaru's music!
Have you heard “wake me up”? If not, an another beautiful cover….
Yes! Great tune!

Totally missed this one too. Weird! Where did you find it? Sounds like a studio recording with some bits of live footage.
Just wait till you see what’s coming down the pipe 🤯 it gets better! 😆
