Quincy Jones was featured several times in the video. When you have a genius like Quincy calling Jacob a genius, you wonder what “genius” even is. Jacob will move music forward and go down in musical history as one of the masters of time.
I totally agree and I love the 5 levels of harmony video when he is the "Expert" Jacob is explaining to...haha great concept and video format! Loved it! Happy New Year
He is the Mozart of the digital age.
@@libertarious nice way of putting it!
@@captainmorgan1978 that's actually Herbie Hancock in that video, but I see what you're saying!
@@claymiller9707 ahh right 😊
Jacob does everyhing. Filming, composing, orchestral arragement... Everything.
Check out Moon River, for a real WTF.
Even more impressed with the video editing...wow! Cheers!
The amazing thing about Moon River is that it is pure tonal. That's why it is all vocal. (If you accompany with a piano it would move away from its tonality, because our tonal system is basically out of tune - it's a compromise).
@@drdalet It actually shifts the A reference tone at 440hz to 427hz by the final two minutes. Then he increases the pitch to 450hz or smth. establishing a new A4=450hz. He plays a lot with microtonal phrasing, you can listen to similar things in Hideaway, Djesse title track, and in a bunch of songs from Vol.2. The guy is actually using very complex music ideas in a way that's easy to hear, it's even hard to discern if you don't know music theory. Fuck I love Jacob.
@@drdalet I haven't watched that one yet, maybe I will do a reaction to that next...
Jacob may film himself, but he sends the videos to the West Coast for editing. And Captain Morgan: he's up for 2 Grammys this year, of for Moon River, one for this one.
*Master of all trades, jack of none* Jacob collier was born to embody this phrase
Well I would say he is a master of composition for sure. ☺️
There is so much positive energy coming out from jacob collier music... it always brings joy to me when I hear it...
along with many others as well! Cheers! and thanks for the comment!
I understand what you are saying about Jacob's voice tone, it's unusual but it's one of the many things I love about his music. I'm attracted to uniqueness and I think he really makes his voice work in his music, especially his originals such as "Time To Rest Your Weary Head", "Hideaway", or "Make Me Cry". Maybe it's because I don't have previous versions by other artists in my head? I do understand how people can not be a huge fan of it though.
Yea and i nthe end it is not a big deal in my opinion...:) Cheers
Love this video his mum plays the violin totally awesome
Not only has he won a Grammy for this, the Orkest Metropole are here with Jules Buckley. Not only Take 6, but their alma mater, The Oakwood Aeolians are on, voted the World's best Choir again in the World Choir Festival in Wales 2019. Quincy Jones, Herbie Hancock, Jonah from Dirty Loops and so many others in this video. It is special.
Ooooh, I would totally love me some choir reactions. Never heard of The Oakwood Aeolians. Any songs/vids with good quality sound I could maybe react to?

@@dougitoonsdesigns THANK YOU! :)
Steve Vai is there too
When I listen to Jacob Collier, sometimes it just breaks me. It's just so good, so creative, he is clearly an absolute genius. He is a 1 in a billion talent
I know that feeling well! 😊
One in Seven Billion.
Jacob Collier's one of the most talented people in modern jazz and jazz fusion right now... definitely a deep rabbit hole, his music.
Rabbit hole entered...lol
Please do moon river next dude! It blows my mind everytime! He hits some chords and takes you to a whole different planet.
Yup, coming up next :() Keep watch!
I think just like you. Take 6 is peeaaaakkk!!! I'm extremely happy to see someone else who actually appreciates and recognizes them. I love them.
Young take 6 is still not matched. 😊
Jacob not singing these arrangements???? All the vocal harmonies all the arrangements everything is predicated off of Jacob singing. His vocal Licks and improvisational ideas are incredible as a singer. He has a style the same way Harry Connick Michael Bublé Norah Jones and any of the other signature singers. The longer one listens to him the more you’ll understand the subtleties and even the incredible singing abilities he has over many other singers who at first glance you would think were the better singers. I know your comments are about his tone even that is so different and unique. He’s so next level at times it’s hard to even comprehend. But as he’s been continuing to do it and no doubt will be moving out even more in the future. He’ll just keep blowing people away totally out of the water. And his singing is going to be part of it. It’s really easy to see that he could have a career to doing movie soundtracks producing other artists all of those things no doubt they’re going to happen. he will also be able to be a solo artist himself as he proves over and over again. He’s unstoppable!
Dude. Holy. Cats. That was just amazing. How have I never heard this?! Thank you for featuring this.
Yea, this is amazing, especially when you realize he does EVERYTHING including the video editing...
Have you never heard of Take 6 either?
Jacob produces all his own music in Logic Pro in his home studio. And yes, he conceives of and edits his own videos. What a mind!!! Oh, and I like his voice. He has remarkable range and plays his vocal instrument with as much skill as he plays other instruments.
Awesome, thanks for the comment. Some others in the comments mentioned as you did!..Thanks for the info! :)
Jacob did in fact edit the video all by himself!
I keep getting conflicting comments saying he did or didn't... Either way it doesn't matter cause it is is still beyond amazing
@@captainmorgan1978 He did. He talks about it at length in his logic session breakdown video, and shows how he edited it, starting here: ua-cam.com/video/UAMc4K_NXsA/v-deo.html
@@captainmorgan1978 He actually worked a year on it in his tourbus
@@lasse1106 awesome thanks for the link!
@@elinemay awesome link in the above comment explains well!
I understand the tone difference thing, but you know what I love? I LOVE the fact that he's owning it and doing it. I also feel ( could be wrong) that to him his voice is an instrument he uses to get out what he hears in his head. I think in Moon River he laid down 5000 tracks of vocals. Can you even imagine trying to convey that to someone else to do for you? Gah! As a creative myself, I totally get needing to link what is in your head to the outside!
Oh, I would totally agree. His voice isn't bad, per se, just not good imo...:)
I agree with you about his singing tone, especially as a classically trained singer myself. It definitely bothered me at first, but his music is so good, and now that I’ve listened to so much of it I’ve gotten used to it and it’s just part of what makes Jacob Jacob.
But only in certain registers. He always hits the note and most of his range sounds sweet. But not all as you note.
I agree with everything except for your surprising remark that Jacob should not sing. It is not only his incredible range, but the quality of his voice (so deep, warm, and velvety - unexpected from his baby face) that captivates me. I cannot get enough of his singing...
Yea can't disagree with the range part but the sound that comes out is not strong, airy, but also just a preference thing. For all the instruments he does do I don't see it as a negative 😊
When you're good enough write the music for Take 6 as your backup singers, you are genius level.
Touche!
In another video, one of the singers in Take 6 admits to how much JC challenges them. And you can tell they love it.
I definitely recommend you listen to Jacob's version of Moon River. You'll hear what an amazing range he has and that he chooses to make this hollow kind of sound for his solo lines over other more centered sounds that he uses for example in the basslines of this song.
Moon is going to be the next one... Requested alot! Looking forward to it!
Already impressed that you have an open mind
The first time I heard him sing I was a little taken aback. BUT, and this is a big but, his voice quickly grew on me and now I love, love, love it. Especially the vocal acrobatics he does and the two and a half octave range. Maybe the odd tone that he has is easier to blend with all the odd chords that he performs.
Jacob Collier's mom Suzie Collier is even in this video playing the violin.
Yes someone mentioned that before 😜
@@captainmorgan1978 Did you also know that he has a mentor in the music business who goes by the name of Q who was also in this music video.
@@ryan61384 I did not
@@captainmorgan1978 on the original video, description there is a full list of everyone in the video
@@jimligon1460 oh, nice info, thanks!
Completely agree. Jacob sings great but he has the tone of a choir boy. I'd love to see him composing and playing for a "simple" jazz trio, since he is a beast at both writing and playing piano (see his piece "Ancona").
Thanks for the suggestion..Moon will be next!
As I said in the vid, I don't think it is a skill thing, more of a preference thing....glad we agree! Cheers!
Hey, nice one, I am one of Jacob's Cult Leader and as for your critique I get it you got valid points even though Jacob's voice is pleasing for a lot of ears which means most of the voices are prompt to personal preferences which make me think that despite you think you don't know how to sing or you don't like what comes out of your singing that might just be a bias of yourself critique or critiques that other put into you, which I invite you to rethink that because probably you got a good voice that could be welcome by many ears around the Globe, what I most love about Jacob is when he expresses that everybody needs to let themselves be free of constrains when outputting their musicality, your music should be an expression of you not a reflection of others.
Great thoughts and thanks for the comment!
I have to like your reaction video because you know what you're talking about!!! Jacob is a genius, indeed
Yup he is the Mozart of our time
Thanks a lot! :) More Jacob coming real soon, so keep watch!
Another fun fact: Jacob arranged this in 6 hours! And also the Aeolians from Oakwood University are featured in this video too.
Subscribed. A reaction channel that actually has a person who knows what they're talking about! Super glad to see someone appreciate this music the same way I do!
Thanks Tee...More Jacob coming soon...Moon has been requested and looking forward to it! Happy New Year.
Yes, his voice his surprising especially when he starts singing in this video, I first thought 'cut the crap' but one second later he flew me away. Wiggle wiggle... and I've listened to it 50 times since, harmony, pitch, rythm, tonality, almost gruesome but when combined, like magic!
Yea my favorite rendition by him
I get the tone thing. I think it just comes down to preference. If you hear him speak then its pretty darn close to how his speaking voice sounds as well so i'd say that's just naturally what he sounds like - as opposed to some singers who put on a different sounding voice for example, to imitate singers they want to emulate usually.
Absolutely I said as much in the reaction that it is not a skill thing.. M just preference... 😊
The GOAT!
I really loved this video! Great reaction, and you seem to know your stuff unlike most people who react to music lmao. Always a plus :)
Thanks for saying so. I really enjoyed this reaction...crazy talented that kid is...wow...any suggestions let me know! :)
Normally, I'd skip through intros and stuff, but I owe it to a fellow "Worthingtonian" to watch it all the way through! Nice vid!
Nice, TWHS grad here and proud to say one of the best Theatre and Music programs in the nation, no joke...you a singer?
@@captainmorgan1978 One could say that, yes. I love to sing.
@@borj_1967 where are the vids yo? Lol
@@captainmorgan1978 haha i haven't bothered to upload them yet. it seems pointless given that i'd never get a single view.
@@borj_1967 come on now positive thinking... Atleast 1 😊
2:22 You got them dude ! Un petit bonjour de France, c'est la première fois que je vois votre chaîne, et c'est Jacob qui m'amène ici.
6:35 C'est le Metropole Orkest sous la direction de Jules Buckley, le même orchestre qui accompagnait Snarky Puppy et Jacob Collier dans la version que vous avez vu. ;)
Wish I could understand French but I hope you said something great! 😏😏. Cheers!
@@captainmorgan1978 It was mostly info. I said :
2:22 You have new followers thanks to Jacob.
Little hi from France, this is the fist time I come to your channel and that's Jacob who brought me here.
6:35 This is the Metropole Orkest (dir. : Jules Buckley), the same orchestra that played along with Snarky Puppy and Jacob on the "Don't You Know" video you saw before.
@@Elixear thanks for the translation! And yes this video is different than my normal reactions so it has brought some different preferences to the channel bc of it. Cheers and hope you find something else here worth watching 😏
The other group of note is the Metropole Orkest…. and there’s an asian lady with a violin about half-way through the video; that’s Jacob’s mom.
I would say JC had a major hand in the videography, based on his earlier work when he did all of it.
By the way…the next time you watch this (because I know you will), notice at one point JC playing bass IN UNISON with his blazing piano solo… insane.
Have you heard of Quincy Jones’ other discovery, Dirty Loops?
How about guitar prodigy Matteo Mancuso?
Your first paragraph others below have commented about his editing the video..even crazier. Yes, I know the part you speak in unison...I think I mentioned something like why he even has other bass players.lol
I have no heard of the others your speak of, but I have seen Matteo quite a bit, Amazing!. I will give them a looksy! Thanks for the comment! Cheers!
@@captainmorgan1978 With Dirty Loops, I’d recommend a short list of likely’s:
“Work Shit Out” …ngl, actual title
“Thriller” (w/Cory Wong band). …VERY clever time signature change
“Next to You” … several key/tempo/style changes within the piece
@@thage7729 On it! :)
My reactions to his piano solo and base licks were identical to yours 😂🤣😂🤣
Anything other would be unacceptable. Lol
@@captainmorgan1978 I've literally only discovered Jacob. Have no idea why it has taken this long. Good commentary bro 👍.
He has got an unearthly voice, but it's a weird instrument. I know what you mean about it not being entirely pleasant, but I suppose that's not the point. In fact, as a child he got the best marks nationally in the UK for grade 8 'voice', as he has perfect pitch (amongst everything else!). His voice is, perhaps, his USP?
haha Nice way of putting it...it is just a preference, but I do think it is a part of the over-all sound. Small detail for me.
Jacob did the video himself; he has a video where he shows how he does it.
Yes, some other comments have said as well and I watched it :)
Jacob did in fact do the video editing. He also did the orchestral arrangements. I've watched this so many times and it still blows my mind. Oh and yes he got a Grammy for it. I think your description of master of all and jack of none was very apropos. Your video and reaction were a genuine well done, respectful of the music delight to watch. I wish more people could stick to the standard you've set for this type of video. Great video, great fun. Thanks. Gotta disagree on the singing comments.Oh yeah he definitely has own "take" on dancing.
thanks for the comment..a few more jacob reacts I have done if you haven't checked them out yet...more to come soon..any suggestions?
@@captainmorgan1978 I do have one track I think gets a little overlooked. This was the first video I saw of Jacob and it blew my mind. There are two versions-a live and a non-live (?). I'm leaving the link for the one that made me a believer. It's a very cool song and the visuals are just stunning. Again the melding of audio and visual is so impressive. Here's the link: ua-cam.com/video/IlFD298wTOM/v-deo.html By the way I went to your "site" unsure of the proper terminology looking for the other Jacob reactions but couldn't seem to find them? Not sure. Thanks for asking about a suggestion.
@@robote7679 Well, you just brought awareness to me indirectly that the other videos I did have now been blocked and I didn't know it until you mentioned it and I went looking. So, thank you, and Shit! lol I uploaded them when I lived in Korea and it was fine but it is now blocked...unfortunate! I will NEVER understand blocking something...copyright it YES, block...who does that benefit. NO ONE! it is so dumb.
The video was directed and edited by Jacob. Hundreds of hours of editing apparently!
Yes a few other comments said as well... Video is so well done.
There is an amazing you tube video of him breaking down his recording sessions you'd enjoy. The thing about his voice..... I have heard that crit many many times and I hear what y'all are talking about, I assume regarding his solo singing as opposed to his harmony singing, which is spectacular in every way. But over time I just see all of the sound output he generates as one big thing.... "Jacob Collier's musical imagination", and suddenly the thin ex-boy soprano tone quality of his singing just becomes irrelevant, I just become in the thrall of this volcano of his genius.
I have, since this reaction, looked at some of that,..I am not a theory wiz just know enough to get by so I get lost, but great to see all of it and how his mind works. I like his "teaching harmony in 5 levels" vid...
As far as the voice crit, it is yes, only about his solo sound...I mentioned myself as the same...I can sing some harmony and that is okay but if I sing that SAME harmony solo it sounds horrible...it is just a preference thing...Cheers!@
He didn't do the video editing for Moon River, he had that done by someone else. But nonetheless still great artist.
If you're gonna react to that Moon River video, after you're done talking and giving your take on it you should give this video to watch, not to react to, but just for yourself. So you're a bit more in the 'know' about the whole music theory/tuning theory of jacob collier's songs.
ua-cam.com/video/NHC2XNGerW4/v-deo.html&
Yes, Music Theory/Tuning Theory is rocket science.
June Lee, who's famous in the jacob collier community for transcribing jacob's music down onto music sheets interviewed him and was really thorough about asking the right questions.
ua-cam.com/video/DnBr070vcNE/v-deo.html
If you're looking to understand Jacob's music more, it would be through June Lee's transcription videos of Jacob's songs and his 3 part interview.
@@captainmorgan1978 I had the same reaction at first, but his solo voice has grown on me. Not to, y'know Otis or Marvin Gaye levels, or anything, but to the point where I hear it and it's welcome to my ears. Becky Stark was the same way, back in the day. Plus Jacob deals in the dark arts of microtonality, and Just Temperament, which is absolute Wizard-level for me.
@@rollomaughfling380 Dark arts, like that phrase...Cheers!
Yoooo, can you please react to "with the love in my heart" by jacob? especially if you are a musician, you will love this so much
I think Moon will be next, but maybe after that...Cheers and thanks for the comment!
@@captainmorgan1978 I think you would love With The Love in My Heart as well. but Moon river is just nuts too
@@danielnichols7193 Awesome, I think this is an inevitable rabbit hole! lol
another great video!
Cheers... News ones coming soon... Any JC suggestions for future?
Moon River is even better, if you can even compare the ridiculously great to the stupifyingly great. With just the two songs alone he convinced me that he's the greatest musician of my lifetime, and I go back to the 50s. I've listened to each at least 50 times, and they never get old. He's a monster.
Check out my Moon River reaction! 😊
Yeah, Jacob's vocal tone is hit or miss with a lot of people, don't worry. This was a wonderful review of the song since you had a different perspective coming from mainly Take Six.
I think you may be picking up the different vowel sounds between an American (Take 6) accent, and a British RP accent. Also, his early singing career was as a boy treble in opera - a very different sound from what you may be used to hearing. I love his voice, but then, I'm British and grew up singing choral music.
This got recommended...
Not sure how or why, but interesting !
Looks like your channel is getting traction :)
haha glad the internet lords, YT, brought you here. Cheers! :)
Check him out in the video sleeping on my dreams, he is not a bad dancer.
Jacob has a logic session breakdown on this song, and in addition to the song he also breaks down the video editing that he did in Adobe Premier Pro
Yes, others have mentioned in the comments and then I watched the breakdown :)
He also plays essentially every instrument.
Yea, that is what I said at the end...the flipped of me...lol I am a jack of all trades but master of none, he is a master of all trades and jack of none :)
I wasn't trying to obtuse but apparently I succededanyway
Check out it dont matter
By Jacob. And JoJo. Much more spare. But the video is neat.
He doesn't play horns... as far as i know...
Recorded professionally by himself. Video work all done by him.
Jacob is amazing. He arranged the orchestra on synths and had someone else print it out and had it played by the Dutch Metropole orchestra. And, yes, he made the video and mixed the music as well.
Definitely amazing...I watched the breakdown of his arrangement video after this and heard him say it took him a year to do all of it...I would think 3 years lol...
@Kevin Leong which part? He said himself in the vid the whole process took a year? 😊🍺
Can you react to Transatlantic Duel with the devil live it’s a prog rock epic with a all star supergroup Line up. The line up is Mike Portnoy on drums Neal Morse on keyboards and Ronnie stilt of flower Kong’s on lead guitar and Pete Trewavas on bass they are the most epic
His tone is AMAZING, definitely my own opinion but you're wrong haha
Haha fair enough, every has the right to be wrong eh?
CaptainMorgan of course, I am all the time!!!!
Yep, Jacob did all the editing and stuff, too. But don't shit your pants, just enjoy it!
Now I'm probably pushing my luck but here is one other distinctly non-jacob suggestion. The mysterious-alas-one hit wonder Abiogenesis. This is such a roaring volcano of metal perfection and since its release several years ago the band has never put out another song. They maintain a social media prescience but this gem of metal perfection is all we currently have to know Abiogenesis. This video is audio and visual impeccability. The musicianship off the charts. What happened to them? ua-cam.com/video/Rt1QVlOkRfU/v-deo.html

Yeah, don't get it either. You're basically using your time and talents to give more air time and potentially wider audience.
@@robote7679 Nice welcome! :) New ones coming out tomorrow :)
Awesome reaction. I totally agree about his singing voice, it's very strange and he's definitely not as accomplished as professional singers in that regard. However I've got used to it a bit and the great thing is that I think he's recognised that his voice isn't the best in that he invites so many great professional singers to feature or back him up.
We agree totally! Cheers and thanks for the comment!
I agree. I’ve become sorta accustomed to his tone but it’s not my favourite.
Fun fact. I thought similar, yet he got a gold award for the top result in the UK for his vocals from the highest awarding body in the country. We must have all missed something but his talent is undeniable

I appreciate your commentary, but I must say it was very frustrating when you were talking constantly over the song and clearly missing many of the intricacies of the music. Just my 2 cents.
Appreciate the comment. Thought I didn't talk too much during this one so you probably wouldn't like my other reactions lol. I think it being a reaction channel, especially a first reaction, is the point. Some people stop the video and talk and I personally don't like that so I get people have different preferences. On a first reaction all the intricacies is not the point, those come later with each listen. Again, different strokes for different folks and I get it. Cheers!
OHIO STATE WITH NO BRIM?!
No BRIM? I feel this is a set up lol
He's British, and that accent is unique to that part of his phraseology. He won a Grammy Award for singing like that. Will you ever win an award for singing? Your assessment Lacks basic intelligence. Lastly, You're free to think, BUT some things should never be said, not if you still want people to hold you in high regard. cheers.
