JINJER fans - I’ve just released a stand-alone piano arrangement version of PISCES.
Arranged by yours truly, and the sheet music is also available in 3 difficulty tiers. Head over to the video below and check the description! 🤘
ua-cam.com/video/8UA5Rw4JpeE/v-deo.html
Do you have a midi version of this? I'd REALLY love to see that.
I would love to have a conversation with you about this track now that it's been out for a year and I'm sure, like me, you have listened to it many times. I am still noticing little things that I didn't notice previously
i feel like youre the jinjer of reaction videos. always learn a lot and enjoy your thoughts
Listen, man…you are the perfect combo of knowledge and communication. A lot of people that have a deep understanding of music theory are unable to explain musical theories or ideas to normies..I’ve listened to this song about 20 times and you’ve just pointed out 3 or 4 things that I simply didn’t notice. Great shit!
That's really reasurring to hear. Thank you for that! So glad you're finding my commentary enjoyable. 🤘
@@JWSoundworks2 enjoyable and educational. You describe things in a way that’s easy to understand. I love music but wish I had the ear that you do. It takes a few times of me listening to a piece to hear what you’re hearing.
I've been watching "Vortex" reactions all day - this is the best (No surprise there). I love how you point out things that I've might have failed to notice. (My JInjer t-shirts arrived this week! Although I want one now that says "Whirl! Spin! Swirl!")
Thank you very much, man! I think their new album is gonna be astounding.
So proggy, so heavy. I mean their musicianship is on a really high level right now. That album is going to slay!
Absolutely intense experience, that. I feel like this is about as good as it gets really!
Feel so blessed this week. New Jinjer song and already a dissection video from you.
This song took me a couple of listen to really dig, but I really like it now. And thanks to you, I love it even more now that I can pick on those little details.
Man I love your song in the intro.
Cheers
Thank you Martin. I'm hyped for this new album. And thanks for the kind words about my own music. 😊🤘
Just watched the live Hellfest stream where they played this song live for the first time. Holy shit dude. It was literally perfect. She fucking nailed the last deep, extended growl. Clean singing was on point as well. I don't think she's ever sounded better and the band has only gotten better and better over the years. I was kind of worried how those really low chugging riffs would sound live but they pulled it off. Shit was heavy. Made me want to stomp a hole in my living room floor.
Knew nothing about the live stream until now! In a world where the studio engineer can make a lot of average musicians sound killer, it's all the more impressive to hear that this band are just as good live. Harks back to the good old days where all recording musicians had to be shit-hot players!
Watched the whole show (of course)....they sounded basically perfect! Tatiana owned the stage, owned the cameras, owned everything. Eugene, Roman and Vlad were spot on as well, so tight, so clean.
YES! The Hellfest From Home stream was absolutely amazing, I am so freaking psyched to see them in November!
@@BTAColorado I'm also seeing them in November with VIP tix, nervous as hell!
The Hellfest set was amazing, so clear! Kind of bummed out that it was no crowd, but it certainly offered a unique set and performance.
I’ve been waiting for you to react to Vortex because I always feel musically smarter after watching your reactions. Can’t wait for this album to drop, then see it live. Keel it up! 🍻
Lovely comment. Thank you! :)
Great analysis again. I get the same vibes from these Jinjer songs but just can't put it into words like this. I know I'm listening to something awesome and unique and intricately composed but it's hard to explain what I'm hearing...just know I love it!
Thanks! Leg chills, dude. Leg chills lol. 😊🤘
@@JWSoundworks2 Just watched Jinjer's Hellfest show that was just streamed over Facebook and UA-cam about an hour ago. They played this song as the last song I believe. The whole show was amazing. If you get a chance to check it out, I highly recommend.
I've been looking forward to your take on this song. You didn't keep us waiting long. Thanks a bunch for this. I'll appreciate the song even more now after you pointing out all these things.
Thanks Suzanne!
No wonder your a teacher. You have fantastic communication skills and understanding in real time what your unwinding. Very well done and even better taste in music.
Another great analysis and incredable reaction! You know, any musical journey with you is like a trip along the best sightseeings with the best guide who is living by the history and rare facts.. If you are alone, you see just a couple of stones and hills, a wonderful landscape, and that's all.. but with the right guide you see the civilizations changing each other here, and you touch these stones like you touch a miracle )
That's such a huge compliment. Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed it!
Can we just get you to be the official Jinjer music interpreter? Even in the chaos of the vortex of riffology, you found the keystone to order the method of their madness. Great reaction and analysis.
Haha appreciate that, Shane. Thanks mate!
Fantastic reaction my friend. And hear I am just dumbfounded by Tati's "swirl" growl at the end LOL 😆😆😆😆 I'm not a musician, but even I know that Jinjer is so complex on the way thay write their music now, compared to the earlier stuff which was still fantastic. The way you explain everything musically is so informative and awesome, it gives me even a greater appreciation of Jinjer on how incredible of a band they are. You my friend are one of my favorite reactors for that very reason. Keep up the great work, and as always, stay Metal. 😊🤘🤘🤘🤘🎶🎶🎶🎶
Don't quit on music (however great Jinjer are... and they are) and definitely don't quit on reacting - love the depth and technicality of your reactions. Thank-you
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. When you hear a 10/10 it makes you realise you need to keep upping your game to co-exist in a world of music of this amazing calibre!
Hello, just wanted to say how much I enjoy your videos. I discovered Jinger about 6 months ago. Instantly loved them. I was blown away by how technical their music is and how well they gel together. I’m in no way a music expert but I knew there was something special here. Watching you break down each song has been a delight and welcomed educational experience.
Hi John, really happy to hear you've been finding the commentary enjoyable. Thank you!
Thank you for not making us wait too very long for your reaction to this. Thank you for this fantastic reaction. Thank you for teaching me a little more about the technical aspects of the composition. Thank you for sharing your enjoyment of this amazing band.
Thanks for that, John. I'm glad I didn't wait either. This song was immense! 🤘
Masterclass of interpretation, sir. Been through a dozen reaction video's looking for someone that really 'got it' and landed upon your page. Thank you for dissecting it further than I thought I had even known. I'm a fan of yours from here on out! 🤘🤘
This is the group that gives me hope for today's music.
Many comments down here already said it, but man i gotta say it once more : This is the best reaction to this song by a huge margin!
Not only are you not just sitting there smiling and saying "that's cool" once or twice (which already puts you way above the average reactor, let's be honnest), but the points you're making actually make me enjoy the song more, like for the way the riff is being drip-fed at about 14:00 and above.
Great stuff man!
Appreciate the kind words! Thank you.
Man! Jinjer is a BEAST band made out of BEAST musicians but you're a BEAST when dissecting all that musical complexities ( sometimes lack of them) and explaining it to the common mortal folk of forever-amateur 'musicians' like myself. I really appreciate this stuff. I'm learning more music/composition theory in your 5-10min videos than throughout my whole life. Thanks for the effort brother! \m/
What a generous comment! That's very kind of you to say so, dude. That makes me very happy to know people are enjoying this stuff! :)
Your knowledge of music is impressive man,I love your reactions to music. You really understand music
Really appreciate your kind words! Thank you :)
Jinjer- giving Master classes on music ability... and you, being able to make the details come to life. I wish I had someone like you in high school, I would have taken more jazz band and music theory.
Very kind of you to say so, Eric. Thank you very much, man! :)
Cracking track! I'm constantly shocked by how they craft songs that never settle.
Very impressive Analysis. This gentleman is obviously well studied. As a musician myself , his feedback is priceless. Not sure the casual listener would appreciate the in deep analysis involved here. Theirs plenty of musicians who’d love this channel. Great opportunity for learning. The best channel for me…
Very kind, Henry, thank you for the positive feedback. 👍🤘
Was waiting for this one! Album comes out August 27th!
It's never a waste if time listening to you explain music and especially Jinjer!
Seen already hordes of reactions to this very song but this channel is one of the very few I have actually waited for. Top tier channel with quality content 👌.
Thank you so much for that comment. I can't believe how positive and kind the comments are. So stoked to hear that people are enjoying my commentaries. 😊🤘
Will never get tired of rewatching all your Jinjer reactions. Would LOVE to see you watch and break down some of the play throughs, even if you’ve watched them before in your own time. I think we’d all gain a lot from seeing you analyse them 😊
In particular, because you don’t get unless you ask, Roman’s “Pit of Consciousness”, Eugene’s “Vortex” or Vlad’s “Home Back” 🙌🏻
Don't worry, I've had chills since my 1st Jinjer song.
I have watched all your Jinger Reactions and i must admit, you deliver the best Analysis/ Reaction on their music. By far. There is no one else who understands and explains their music as you do. Really great work.
😳 Ridiculously kind of you to say so. Thank you very much, man!! 🤘
i love your attention to detail, also because i'm a musician myself ........... and generally .......
Jinjer is ultimately something extraordinary, if Zappa would still be alive, he could confirm that, I'm sure!
I wish you a nice time until we meet again!
Greetings from Germany
Guten Tag! I think that most people these days now realise that metal music has always had a level of sophistication to it. Hard to believe it used to be considered dumb or just noise, by some people. Jinjer are the perfect commercial vehicle to showcase just how incredibly sophisticated metal can be. Virtuosity doesn't just mean playing fast. Everything about this is virtuosic, to me. In the ways that matter.
You're hands down one of the best reactors. I always learn something, notice something I previously missed. Really, you're more of a critic and teacher than a "reactor," and I love your analysis/breakdowns.
Very kind of you to say so. Thank you 😊
Just want to tell you that I have watched your reaction at least 5 times. The combo of knowledge and enjoyment of the song and band make your reaction superior to all others. Thank you for the time you spent producing this video. 🤘
Great song, great reaction... I enjoy how a genius like yourself can explain things that even I can understand... superb 👌
Very kind of you to say, Jeffrey. Glad you enjoyed it!
I have 0 knowledge of music theory but your commentary and metaphors and examples made so much sense. I also started to notice new sounds in the song that I didn't notice before, there's this 'ting' or beeping sound in the beginning, when a phrase is over you will hear it briefly, then it will stop before the next phrase starts. I can't tell if it's the guitar, bass, or drum but it's driving me crazy since it sounds like the sound my earbuds make when the battery is low lol. I also can hear the sound of strings moving and rattling in the beginning of and the end of some reffs. The more I listen to this song the more things I hear in it. It's so fascinating.
I really love your reactions man!
Please check out "Who is gonna be the one" and "Sit stay rollover live" are some of my favorites songs of Jinjer and are awesome.
Greetings from Guatemala! 🇬🇹🇬🇹
Greetings Pablo! Thank you, man. I have those ones on my list 😎🤘
You dissected this performance as a surgeon. This is the best reaction I've seen.
Very kind of you! Thank you :)
I’m so happy to have stumbled upon your channel. Thanks!
Thanks for the reaction mate. Your analysis of Jinjer speaks right to my soul. The intricacies of their music is what first grabbed me and has held me since. And as amazing as Tatiana is, these master musicians deserve every bit of credit they receive and more. Tati is lucky to have them. Great reaction 👍
Thanks very much, Chris!
Hello man , great reaction to the song. To me jinjer have raised the bar even higher, so their new album "Wallflowers" will be mighty. Your breakdown of the song is the most in-depth one l have seen, great work! Oh by the way,if you are looking for jinjer merch try EMP.
Very, very interesting reaction. Thank you, man. You are so musical.
I understand and enjoy the construction of this Jinjer piece of work a lot better after your interpretation and explanation. Thank you for that. It's also great to see that you're surprised and hooked too by these high level musicians. Keep on reacting.
That's great to hear. Appreciate that!
It's Jinjer time and I will always be here for that. I've been making my rounds of subbed channels and you are one of my favorites. Summer in Alaska is crazy so much to do so little time . Today is the longest day of the year. Time to fish the midnight sun. Peace out from Alaska.
Cheers Stan! Hope all is well in Alaska!
“Not many artists or bands get my legs chilly…” Best statement from any reaction video. Love your reactions, especially for Jinjer.
Yes..You said all three. Tempo changes. Octave changes, and Time changes. The golden triad of Classical and Jazz. Hi jers musical understanding of Change is Brilliant!
Spot on. "Through rapids and stones..." That part absolutely guts me. Something about the lyrics paired with that harmony and melody.
Another great reaction to a great band
your movements with your hands , and your description of the music (around 23.38), fits very well with the Lyrics...bad thoughts running wild, keeps moving, can't get hold on them
Thanks for that! I didn't realise how much I talk with my hands until I started editing these videos!
Jinjer never disappoints 😁👍👍
I was so excited for your reaction of this! I was waiting and checking back every few hours knowing it was coming 😁 Great reaction as always and so educational! Appreciate you!
That's incredible to hear. Can't believe that! Thanks, Adam. :)
Damn, you've become my favorite person to listen to Jinjer alongside with. I feel like I can learn so much from you brother. Thanks for this added insight!
First video of yours I've ever watched and subscribed right away. Love your commentary and passion for the music man. Keep it up!
Not only an absolutely brilliant analysis but your enthusiasm and recognition of their genius validates my own experience. Thank you...
Thanks Mike!
Analysis and commentary that I've been looking for about Jinjer! I'm pretty sure everything was written with a purpose and you've analysed it in words that I couldn't say myself. Great analysis and you've got yourself a new sub!
Vlad supposedly wrote 80% of the new album so that's probably why you're picking up a lot of classical elements with the composition. He is a classically trained pianist and also plays guitar. He's pushed this band to a higher level in my opinion.
That would definitely make sense. Very sophisticated stuff going on here, all round!
9 of 11. 1 from Eugen and 1 from Roman.
Agreed. Vlad is the last piece of the puzzle, the former drummer was very good, but he doesn't have V's originality
Yes and yes, vlad is pure money and what drew me into Jinjer in at first. But in this song, Tati's emotions and vocals are sublime, almost trance like at times as it elevates the emotion of the song and just pierces the soul, masterclass as usual from Jinjer.
It's amazing how often the bass is driving the song and the guitar is in the background. And then they switch and it's just as amazing.
This is about the best reaction video I have EVER come across you describing everything makes soo much sense and is spot on and the goosebumps is for real I had them all the way to me feet! Cheers!
Wow, Brandon! Thank you so much, dude. Very kind words there! :)
I sent the video to them on IG
@@brandonconley2705 really appreciate the support, dude, cheers ! 🤘👍😎
No problem I hope they see it!!!
Great reaction! Really enjoyed your breakdown of the song.
You helped me finally explain what I love about this song with your "drip fed" description: this is like a metal espresso. It's complete, smooth, strong, and sophisticated if you pay attention to the details. Oh, and it's wakes me up for hours at a time!
Notice how the harmony just gets slowly darker and darker until the super heavy section… shit is so fire, just epic musical story telling.
I'm so grateful your channel exists man. You analyze Jinjer's music sooo deeply and catch everything. This is so satisfying and also makes me appreciate Jinjer's music a lot more even though I thought my appreciation has peaked all these years. So thank you for that!
That's awesome to hear, man! Thank you so much for that!
They just uploaded their live performance from Hellfest 2021. Unbelievable live.
Catchy, disoriented and it just flows. You are very good at grasping the essence of the song and this band (and any song, for that matter), and so quickly too! During the first listen, it's very hard to tell what exactly is going on, and yet it works. There's always a clear tempo you can nod your head to, and yet you won't know where the downbeats will lie, what the chord changes will be. Many bands do this, but Jinjer somehow makes it all work always. Thank you for the reaction, yours are always a must watch!
Was really looking forward to your reaction after listening to the song a handful of times since it came out. It’s oddly satisfying watching someone else visibly enjoy a piece of music as much as I did. Also as a non musician I really enjoy learning and understanding bits that I would not have probably picked up on otherwise, so thank you!
Thank you Monique! Very kind of you to say so.
React to Sit Stay Roll Over, is one of their heaviest songs 🔥
Love your reactions to Jinjer! More please? Old and new.
Great breakdown, subbed.
Love your musical insight. Great reaction. This band is reaching a different level!
I’ve been listening to this album over and over since it came out, and didn’t appreciate this song as much until I saw their video and recognized how they melded the music and lyrics to create a literal vortex sonically. This reaction was my first of your videos I’ve seen, and I enjoyed all of it. The concept of moving where the phrase starts and ends just reinforces the “sonic vortex” of the song’s composition, and how it builds from the small guitar part intro with a little drums add, then more, and so forth.
Dude, this gem of a video made my, well, night or early morning. The song is another step above their previous works and I was blown away once I've heard it a couple of times. But your analysis made me appreciate it even more.
Beautiful reaction! I really enjoy the depth of your analysis especially on time and intervals and the “1”. Its something I am personally workin on in my playin. Appreciate and enjoyed it. By the way you mentioned a word “evolution” and that’s exactly what Jinjer is doing. Evolving a new kind of way of playing extreme music.
I love watching this man listen to jinjer.
Love the band, love the channel.
Amazing video. Thank you for sharing your experience of listening the song. I got chills seeing you getting chills hahaha
Haha, that's unreal! Glad you enjoyed it, bro! 👍😎
I thought the same about that groove they landed on, and that combined with the lyrics there always give me chills. "Through rapids and stones..."
I know that point of the song that gives you chills. I got them too. I completely agree w the metaphor of the pieces of music being parts of the vortex. I think the videography on this song is spectacular. Each of their videos just keep getting better.
Glad to see you again. Im wearing my Jinjer tshirt and seeing your Frank Zappa tshirt. I wanted to comment that that’s a great shirt. I got the Pisces shirt. May get another. Hoping to see Jinjer in December if I can. Cheers!!
Thanks D. Yeah, the video seemed to compliment the music beautifully on this one. Excellent vision to get from listening to the song. Cheers! :)
After you talked about the chill in your legs and drew my attention to that part of the music, focusing on that part of the music gave me chills in my legs, so thank you, musical sorcerer, (and thank you to Jinjer, too, of course) for that! ❤🤘
That's awesome! :)
Thanks for another excellent breakdown, so much to unpack here.
Thanks! Absolutely full-on!
What an amazing review. I only subscribe to musicians & other professionals, & I must say, your content is truly top-tier. Well done! Cheers!
Very kind of you to say so. Thanks very much! :)
I don't even know what to call what you do in your videos, but I love it. Thanks for analyzing and breaking this one down, agree with you, it's a great composition.
Thank you, Jan. :)
The ending was to me ,she is standing on a craggy cliff kicking each off one at a time, but they keep playing on the way down. The beauty and the three bearded beasts are just getting started.
Best react of Vortex ever! Jinjer is so talented, it is almost obscene...
Cheers dude, appreciate that!
Still my favorite reactor ❤ nobody gives them quite the depth of breakdown that they deserve
Great break down as usual. In an interview it was said the drummer Vlad composed nearly all the music for the new album. He is a classically trained pianist (Check out his post playing Rachmaninov's “Prelude in C# Minor (Op. 3 No. 2) and also plays guitar. The entire band is so gifted and now someone with classical training is literally composing metal. This album should be awesome!
Makes total sense him having a background in Classical adding a level of sophistication to what's on display here! Cheers.
great reaction... I feel like I really learn a lot from your videos.
Thank you, Jon!
i agree with you on the after the song comment... a lot of people say greatness inspires them... it just makes me want to give up... because i know i'm never getting to this level, this is a talent beyond just practice
Thanks. You put a lot of my thoughts to words!
The #LegChills are real indeed! LOL
I've a feeling this denotes Vlad's classical training coming into its own, now that he is settled in the band, & that he has really dived into the writing process for the upcoming album- apparently Vlad did ~80% of the musical composition for this one.... & I *cannot wait* :D
Also, it's nice to see a good few positive, encouraging, comments for yourself in here. You do a great job with these analyses. It may be slower growth than others on the Toob, but I suspect you're gathering the kind of folk who are likely to be *solid* supporters, the kind of which shallower channels can only dream of attracting- keep yer head up. I mean, I could live off of 400 Patreon subs pinging me a fiver a month for (Discord, access to reaction requests, & a monthly livestream).... just sayin'!! ;)
^^^ This ^^^
Thank you, bud. I definitely think you could be onto something there. I might consider doing something like that if I can reach, say 10k subs.
@@JWSoundworks2 10k subs seems a sensible mark to launch something like I suggest here. Gives you a chance to get the wee bit of prep done re. setting up Patreon, Discord server, TeeSpring etc accounts (& possibly upgrading internet service for livestreaming).... but you might be surprised how quick that 10k can pop up. I'm not suggesting you're lazy, but there's no harm in getting things set up soon as. ;)
All the best from sunny Dundee as always!
@@badm0t0rf1nger yeah, man. I'm up at 6.30am and in bed after 12am. Definitely not lazy lol. Just busy doing other things like working and keeping my 2 year old daughter alive 😂. I worry that I might not have the time for all of that jazz! Maybe by the time I get to 10k subs my daughter will be grown up and have moved out lol.
@@JWSoundworks2 Creating Patreon & TeeSpring accounts, & setting up a Discord server, can be done in an afternoon.... don't make me wag my finger at you, young man! LOL
And it wouldn't be crazy for you to ramp up past 10k in weeks rather than months if you can stay consistent with uploads. Just sayin'. ;)
Great reaction ❤
Good reaction sub and liked
Great Analysis. Enjoyed it.
AWESOME REACTION!
Great reaction, like your style.
You got a sub.
Thank you for doing this.
Happy to listen to the dissection ❣
Spanked ya right in the willy…good analysis my dude! Keep em coming.
I've been waiting for your breakdown of this song since it came out , really great reaction.
Thanks Steve! 🤘
Great Reaction.
Love the new Jinjer song and especially your reaction analysis on top of that.
Keep up the good work.
I'd love to see you react to black crown initiate. Their new album especially, but all their music is so unmistakably theirs, in that they have such a defined style and it sets them apart
