The bass swayer, the guitar slayer, and the beat layer
Lol niiice brother
just a prayer said the sayer
You know the one !!
Radio Player in the Deep Northwest Lair
Nicely stated! 😎
I don't understand how the KEXP studio can sound so good every time. Insane props to their sound engineers
no kidding, I like the live version better than the album version lol
It seems like everyone who plays there gives their best performance ever, everything sounds amazing and the host is always such a cool and nice person
True
Couldn't agree more, every performance sounds amazing!
Noticed this too! I actually seek out new music thru them now. And def check out my faves.
Always get hooked on musicians who look dead inside all while delivering godlike banger.
I feel that on a fundamental level
King krule haha

Listen to showgaze, dude!
@@aidanosullivan_ he has a lot of passion in his voice and face
I am 150 years old and this is the greatest song I've heard since I was a hippie in the 70s
😂
Hippies were in the 60s, kid. The 70s was all about the disco. I know this because I’m actually 150 years old.
Me too
The way she dances when playing bass really does something for me
im in love
The way she does anything
That side to side shaking thing just works.
ooff i know
5:42 Gracious sakes!
From what I hear, metronomes are calibrated to this drummer's rhythm.
AwesomeShot Studios Upon moving to comment about a drummer’s metronomicity (YT iOS-app hides cmnts), my impulse to publish a bland thought was replaced w/ an awakening to my unoriginality. An instant loss of religion then led to a heavy Fentanyl habit. Yeah, but after I kicked, I turned paid session recordings of their drummer into a successful series of sample packs and web audio modules. They have paid for the two SLs in my multi-level Malibu garage & the “friends” that ride in them, but I would trade it all for the power to have commented first all those minutes ago.
@@SeeingColor this dude didn't find the third room
@@SeeingColor Aiight
Oh man! This comment almost DESTROYED me!! Oh must breathe!
Hahaha! I was thinking it. Then I looked down and saw your comment.
Possibly the most effortlessly cool band on the planet Earth.
10 times over!
I think it takes a lot of effort to be cool like this but that's just my opinion man
The fact that it looks effortless means they put in a whole shedload of prior effort.
Exactly!@@guitarfan01
Drummer! Blink twice if the wigged people are holding you captive!
Hahaha :)
IKR but a good source told me "its his thing."
Hahaha!
Now that... is a masterclass in comments.
Right?!!🗣😂😂😂
It's like I died and surfed my way to heaven.
Tim K vert aptly said. The psychedelic touch to those surf music guitar parts would definitely make one feel that way
Haha broo
Came for the hair, stayed for the music
Thammy Impala lol, totally what I did!
....came back for the drummer
Thought so: Wig Outs!!!
@Squirrel Master hail squirrel master
same
The woman interwieving is so nice
That’s Cheryl Waters. THE Cheryl Waters.
She doesn’t stumble and use ums and ahhs. She knows what she’s saying and how to say it up front without making a mess of it. She’s a pro.
bet she makes delicious cookies 😋
Cherry waters is goated
She's nice in all the shows I've seen on this platform
I've literally been searching for this sound my whole life.
You mean that riff on the first song? I swear I've heard it before but not from them.
@@popodopulus3826 That 3 note repeated progression reminded me of The Psychedelic Warlords beginning at about the 2:45 mark on Hawkwind's fourth studio album Hall of the Mountain Grill (1974).
You've found it mang.
You might like Ravi Shankar if you dig this....
@@popodopulus3826 sounds like the French band 'Air'
I drive an Uber in DC and I play two of your albums on repeat I've lost count of the people that asked me" Who is this band?"
RIGHT
The exact same thing has happened to me at my workplace man. I've played Khruangbin so much and I've had like 4 or 5 co-workers stop me and ask who is this band. Like half of my workplace is on them now haha Khruangbin are seriously doing something right!
hahahaha
remind me a lot of Thievery Corp.
It's the music going through straight to our brains!
I love this performance, but can we also give Cheryl Waters some love? She's a terrific host!
She is! Instant chemistry and smooth delivery. She clearly is in her element!
As soon as you hear Cheryl you know there's about to be some ace music heading your way.
Most people would want James Earl Jones or Morgan Freeman to narrate their lives but I want Cheryl Waters to narrate mine. Who'd be scared or anxious when a motherly voice is telling me what I'm thinking before I think it?
Dunno why she had to interrupt between every single song though.
you can tell she really loves the music and knows a lot about the bands before bringing them on. also, i emailed her once to ask about a Seattle musician who has disappeared from the scene, wondering if she had any 411. she emailed me back the next day and was very generous with her time. i can tell - a VERY nice person. you can sense that.
My 13 year old son introduced me to Khruangbin. Proud Mama!
13 years old? Wow.. ! Awesome!
Obviously the young person had a good music education 😊
When my kiddo started talking about Captain Beefheart, many years ago now, I had the same reaction. Never forgotten ❤️
For Real!
My 27 yr old son shared this band with me too.. it's a vibe I've been missing my whole life 💯🙌💯
Today I discovered this band. The universe smiles upon me.
Today I discovered this band too.The universe smiled upon me too.Cheers.
А я сегодня.))
"Your guitar are the vocals to this band" - really well said, Cheryl
Drummer is a machine. The 3 of then together stay totally in sync.
January 2024 , still this is one of my most favorite recordings of em.. mad respect to KEXP, still always giving us beautiful tunes
Legend has it that the drummer's star ship lost its course in the nether reaches of outer space. The drummer's mental metronome within his head kept beat with the stars at the center of galaxies until he found that he could communicate with them. Over the span of 6 millennia he taught them the essence of rhythm and synced their pulsing to his will. He left tiny pieces of his mind scattered throughout the universe which eventually became the pulsars we know of today.
Hahaha brilliant
🤣🤣🤣thanks for the chuckle
@@vwheato It's all true. I got it from the Wikipedias.
You took too much bro!
@@aironovathuul My tale is true. I was there. I am the Star Child, born unto this universe as a culmination of all of the drummer's seeds of musicality; a flesh-born amalgamation of cosmic notes and chord progressions. I've stood dormant among the stars, germinating for eons, until I was ready--until He said that I was ready, and smiled down upon my cosmic form. With a warm glow of His synapse my form soared through the empty pathways of space--faster, faster, faster until I crash landed upon a small, barren rock floating around a yellow star. I stood. I began to walk, becoming accustomed to my new body. I was hot. I was glowing with life energy. Every step I took left behind a footprint of substance--life. The first step, a water droplet; the second step, bacteria; The third step, a nematode; The fourth step, a seed of vegetation; the fifth step, a bipedal mammal; the sixth step, humanity; the seventh step, the passage of time; the eighth step, music. After the eighth step I rested. I looked down upon what I had done and felt the coolness of His fulfillment wash over me. The remains of my body melted onto the firmament and became the seas. I gave the whales their songs, the birds their whistles, the wind its moaning, and humanity its voice. I am He. And He taps the beat of eternity upon his cosmic drum.
The world is still a beautiful place after all.
Just sometimes
G. Matthews thank f for that.
yhea.
The most explosive calm music I've heard in a long time!
Yes very wild yet restrained and passive.
The rare whiskey-sipping music that is great on a giant outdoor stage too.
That’s eastern influence for you. Full of paradoxes.
Khruangbin. My favorite musical discovery of the past 10 years. So original. So damn good. 👍
May I introduce you to Jungle, from the UK? Quite different from Khruangbin but amazing band.
Listen at All Them Witches, the last 2 LP... they are incredible too
Saaaaaaame
@@MissRoux Jungle is ok, Glass beams is like Khru lite, and YIn Yin is also very awesome. So many good bands out now days.
hello from Uzbekistan, we love you Khruangbin
me: excuse me, is this the third room?
Khruangbin: YES!
Evan: Is this the third room?
Khruangbin: YES! This is the third room
@@cannatacris
Yay!!!!!
And Thank you
Can I get all your links for this amazing sound?
Thanks and groove on good man!
Are you alright, Rob? Then press 4.

These guys sound better live than on their albums.
Absolutely
Which is a mark, you know))) that means the band/performer is REALLY TRULY GOOD MUSICIAN.
KEXP also always do a great job on sound too
Good and great.
Great and good.
I was thinking the same thing. They are always amazing live.
This host knows how to make an artist feel good about what they do. She’s awesome 😊
Cheryl is amazing.
Please take this interviewer to every single TV show out there! This is how you interview musicians! She is good!
If there is any justice in the universe these folks will get their own Hanna Barbera cartoon show.
Drummer is the armored fighter, Guitarist is the archer, Bassist is the Sorceress.
hahahahahahaha
That would be cool, but I was thinking more along the lines of solving spooky mysteries with a talking dog.
They solve mysteries with a talking wolf in a medieval Sword and Sorcery setting, uncovering the evil deeds of an ancient Lich.
Think He-man and Scooby Doo had a lovechild.
Cheryl Waters is one of the best interviewers I have ever had the privilege to watch. She is always so good, and this particular interview is, in my opinion, one of her very best.
Look at the sparkle in her eyes... It appears she is a genuine fan of the band.
Cheryl Waters....the Queen of KEXP :)
She's so detailed, enthusiastic and thourough it's a joy to hear.
She is great
She's the matriarch of indie music
Saw these guys tripping on acid. It was probably the most beautiful concert I've been to because it felt like Mark's guitar was telling me a story. It was like the sonic equivalent of a breeze blowing through your hair (or wig) on a hot summer day in California. On top of that, their musicianship is unrivaled. No flashy shit, no fighting for the spotlight. Just music. If you ever have an opportunity to see these guys live, please do.
😂
Living the dream lol 😂❤
This sounds like bliss. I'm glad to know somebody had the perfect experience with their music. It probably rivaled having the best sex of ones life while listening to it.
This radio is what every radio should be !
That's the type of guitarist that everyone wishes he was in their band.
The music is like from 70s turkish movies👏
you absolutely have to be joking. I'm just going to assume that you are and are hoping for lol comments or something..
Agree
…like King Crimson?
One of the best things that happened to music in recent history
I can’t stop playing them. I have all my friends hooked on them.
I love it when new music gets you like that, it's an amazing feeling.
Dude, same, everyone I let her this loves it
same Nina!
Yes they have a fresh and very magical sound I just started listening to them this year and I love everything I hear from them
Me too.
Those baselines are enough to buy proper headphones ,thanks Khruangbin for the great music.
this band is incredible and Mark Speer what a guitar player .
Such a beast, and very catchy riffs.
Velvety smooth guitar
the guy plays good and keep it simple, matches their music beautifully.
♦️♦️
He is the best.
I can't get enough of this cosmically cool band right now.
I feel ya
I think this has got to be the most clever and witty comment section I've ever seen. And it goes without saying that the music is out of this world good.
Like Latin surf psychobilly. Structured minimalist lounge. Groovy and sublime. This trio is onto something special. 💜
@E They are playing Thai funk. Go anywhere in Thailand and you'll here music like this all the time.
@@rattymouse That's the first thing I thought, too
Hence the Thai name 🙄
Love Thai Funk
friday night, smoking a joint listening to this perfecttion
I hear that, sir! Enjoy!
Been high off of this band for a month now and I'm never turning back! Changes my perspective on life!
hell yeah. 1 month has turned into 1 year for me and to celebrate im seeing them in atlanta in december for 3 nights!
I love the host, she really knows her guests

As a bass player, I love this bass player so much. Tone, style etcetera, she is so good.
Yeah, the tone
Her tone emonates such perseverance !
I think she learned how to play bass when this band was born. I heard her say she learned to play off of "Scientist wins the world cup" a reggae record
Khruangbin has been blowing up in the best way possible! I'm obsessed with their musical talents!
see you on everyone of their recent performances lol
McDingleberry Hehe, I get really excited when new performance videos of theirs are released!
Was in a random store on the high street the other day and they were playing Khruangbin. I'd put decent money on their music being used as a film soundtrack one day.
Zeb Mm, yes, I can definitely see that, as well! Their music already seems to tell a story, so it'd really elevate movie scenes!
It's crazy how quickly they blew up from just 6 months ago when no one had heard of them yet.
The drummer is like "I'm out if they ask me to copy their hairstyle".
Band is clearly insane 10/10. Let's give it up for Cheryl as an amazing host too. Fantastic 25 min vid
They should of kept this scene in Pulp Fiction.
Should HAVE
😂👌🏾
@@thepreposterich3553 so many people make the same damn basic mistake
🤣
LOL
When youtube algorithms reward your good taste in music with rhythms from heaven... just discovered this band and I have to say, this music is fantastic!
10 times over!
yep, yep, well said....
In love with the bass player!!!
the bass line is sexy

YEAH NO SHIT! its in the description
Drummer still cant believe the band he helped produce actually blew up.
This is a perfect example why we need live music up and playing live again. How long will our restless souls have to wait to enjoy a good live show again especially with an act like this!
In my opinion, these guys are no question the best band making music right now. If you haven't seen them live yet you need to make it happen as soon as you can. They absolutely destroy every single time, and they never play the same song the same way twice
Thats a good and bad thing😂. Good for the artist to keep ideas coming and improve. But im the type i want to hear how it was on the album or how i heard it originally. Lol.
@@johnnyringo4463 Your probably also into stale ass classic rock from the 70s still.
Drummer needs to get onboard with the band haircut.
He is like the odd guy in zz top
🤣🤣🤣. Totally agree. He needs a man wig
Drummer needs to get a blonde wig
Haha great idea!
super LOL
I know some of you will think I'm saying this because she's drop dead gorgeous, but Laura Lee is one of the best bassists I've ever heard. First off, the volume level is perfect. Too many bassists, especially in a three piece band are TOO LOUD, she's not. But her playing is absolutely in the pocket, and she's not afraid of "space".....meaning she leaves bits of silence and "air" at certain times. I'd really like to know her musical background before she picked up the bass. All three of them are incredible as musicians. I do wish they could evolve into having a few more "vocal" songs. Otherwise, I'm just awestruck with the whole band.
I get what you are saying, but I can barely hear the line even when watching her play. I guess I need to download the stuff to a real sound system and get off the crappy laptop speakers..
Jack Bruce was guilty of this, and it was one of the reasons Clapton because tired of this lineup. Sad, even during the reunion concert Bruce walked back to his amp and turned it up to be louder than the rest. Ego kills.
I'm not a musician, but everything I've heard about playing bass is what you don't play that makes all the difference in making it good.
John Goscinski yes! You do!!! Sounds like the perfect volume through my Partybox 300
Gil Sanderson think I remember her saying in an interview that she picked up the bass after the band got together.
She's so pretty, and everyone here is so talented. Love this band!
every once in a while, we are blessed with the opportunity to watch the reinvention of cool. Very, very cool. I'm now a fan.
Cheryl Waters is amazing! Certainly does her homework and does a great job getting artists to tell interesting stories.
True! Not easy to do, and at first they seemed to be outta gas, so it shows how good Cheryl is at getting bands engaged.
she imbodies their music so perfectly... you can literally feel her play through her movement
Gulaschiltis the funny thing is, she actually hasnt been playin for a long time. i think she started playing bass after meeting the two other guys and i hope im not spreading false info but i think i remember an interview where she said that mark (the guitarist) actually encouraged her later to go on tour, although she thought she wasnt good enough and everything.
seems like she is good enough 😄
I’m mesmerised by her swaying hips
I have a girl crush.....that almost never happens
Her misty vocals make all the difference.
@@ME-ol9gk... no kidding ... I'm mesmerized
They are creating the best music of this time
She's just so fucking groovy
I could listen to Mark Speer's guitar playing all day, he picks such nice tones and has the most tasteful choice of notes. Great band.
Arctic Douche Hank Marvin meets Eddie Hazel or some shit....incredible player
tasteful notes? lmfao PLEASE dude.
@@jackbenson8228 Instead of typing that, it's better to give an explanation as of why you're thinking that way.
@@jackbenson8228 Your name is supposed to have capital letters dude. The please didn't need any.
@Squirrel Master only thing I have against the band is the cutesy wigs and choreographed dance moves which overall just seems too hipsterish. But musically you're right, he's a great player, not many players these days can carry a band with a clean tone strat.
Drummer biked there in the afternoon when weather was fine, but now It’s raining hard and he’s quite far from home
Have you ever had one of those days where you know your thirsty you mouth is dry you think could this be hay fever? You try milk pop water coffee.....must be hay fever... And then for apparent reason while surfing youtube Khruangbin it doesn't sound very refreshing but it cured my hay fever. Khruangbin Absolutely love them there style of music is so fresh. I was floored There friggen awesome!!!!
Crazy how they manage to sound like way more than three people. Watching Mark play is especially interesting: he's doing the work of two guitarists, returning to a rhythm part in each empty space, no matter how short, between his lead lines.
He’s amazingly good
I just took a 20 minute vacation... so relaxing.
Laura Lee should be the standard for everyone's answering machine.
YES
Aman Kumar ..this is the 3rd room
Chris Macdonald YES
You alright?
"YES"
Tina Weymouth of her generation. Bass lines stand out and a pleasure to watch live. Love it!
I def agree with this!
came from tiny desk, to see them on KEXP, will go back to tiny desk, and then come back to KEXP.
Laura asks rhetorically: "Who else is going to play guitar like Mark?"
The answer: No one on the planet!
It's been a while since I've heard this level of guitar playing. Awesome.
Jeff Beck comes to mind. Modern version
Cheryl Waters being gracefully speaker as she is
Oh wow. Her awareness towards old Iran came as a nice surprise to me. I was here for the music but that's pretty awesome, these guys are aware of the world's cultures and history.
Cheryl really is such a great interviewer. Always knowledgeable about the bands she speaks to
I've been obsessed with this group since they came on NPR. Since then, I've been everywhere consuming all recordings I can find. However, i come back to this one repeatedly. Shout out to the sound team! This sounds too damn good for UA-cam. We aren't worthy! Thank you!
The Pitchfork performance was magnificent as well.
One minute in and i can't believe my own ears
This lady is a great interviewer.
Laura Lee's melodic rhythmic bass beats speak to the soul.
When you're just plain good....and you don't even act it....then you are the COOLEST. That's this band. Cool without tryin'.......
I've watched this clip so many times. They're fantastic! Reminds me of that obscure (and taboo) wave of psychedelic rock that came out of Turkey during the 60's. Feels like soul surf music
this band is a proper music for LSD
Anatolian Rock.
'Could have been a lawyer, could have been a doctor' spoke to me
Almost finished with medical school but wish I had more to play music :(
KEXP brings "So good it HURTS!" music to us. I've discovered so many performers that BLOW MY MIND through these live performances. THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
Indeed. Kruangbin and KG&TLW are two standouts.
exactly same thing! how it can be that good that you almost cry?
I could listen to this over and over again... wait... I do. I wish more music was like this and hope they keep this up.
There's something special in the way Laura Lee says - YES
Hot
As a guitar player myself, I'm very happy to see a fellow man of the axe deliver his own sound. A thousand times better than ill ever be! The man an can flat out play!
this band is bringing me back to life
Finally on KEXP !!!!!!!!!!
"who's gonna play the guitar like Mark?" you're god damn right Laura
He doing this without any picks. Finger to finger, just smoking. She's hot and a player while the drummer is just so kicked back throwing a beat in every time needed. Luv these guys.
I recently saw a showing of the movie "Relentless" in Maui, the story of Dusty Payne, the surfer who almost died after wiping out on Oahu's North Shore. The footage of him surfing was accompanied with this amazing Khruangbin song; Maria Tambien. Outstanding music, excellent surf movie music.
Laura Lee working a bass is love at first sight, even for the blind.
Their energy do something to me.
ROC MARCIANO COULD FLOW ON THIS BEAUTIFUL INSTRUMENTALS
Love how the Captions say 'Music' when they sing.
They have a slight “Maggot Brain” vibe to them. Love it.
They've definitely got the funk
Funkadelicccc
I stumbled across this because Rhett Shull (@RhettShull) made a video on this band.
It's a deep rabbit hole, but I'm not complaining.
Amazed at the seeming simplicity of the music and the relative depth and breadth that is accomplished by a mere three members.
DJ is one of the most on-time drummers I have watched and listened to, and with a very simple kit.
Thank you all for this one 🙏
This is the video I chose to introduce Khruangbin to my girlfriend because of the outstanding audio production KEXP did in presenting this video. Very well done, guys!
