Same man. Louis Cole is a criminally underrated drummer too. He's so far on top of the beat that everything he plays has this almost frantic energy to it, but is also the closest to a drum machine I've ever heard a real human being sound. Not to mention his sheer chops.
Sam Wilkes turns up in some interesting places. Scary Pockets, Pomplamoose and others. Apart from his Bass Face, his footwear is often a subject of conversation.
It´s been 5 years that this video keeps appearing on my suggestions. Every time i rewatch this one and the other videos from this serie. Please consider a like for every time.
I think the whole idea of cramming the band into a kitchen-dining area of a house, knocking on the window for a cut-off and wearing some humorous outfits adds to the charm immensely. Also, personal acknowledgement with photos at the end of the video is a nice touch. Well done, kids!
@@PhatTrumpet2 just cause a person calls them "kids" doesn't mean its somebodys parent. I call teenagers kids. Hell I consider myself a kid (i'm 25). The original commenter is most likely older than them and calling them kids cause they are young.

You know musicians are hot shit when a live session recording of a song blows the studio version out of the water. Not many artists can do this, but these people aced it
I would just like to say, almost two years after this video dropped, that the zoom in on that girl's Guitar Center jacket is one of the hardest trolls I've seen since.
I wish Spotify said how many times I listen to songs, because Louis Cole has gotten more playtime in the last 2 months since I first heard him that most other music!
It's good, that I love practising scales and arpeggios on the flute but sure wish I had octave buttons. The dishwasher must have been doing overtime, 'cause nothing was out of sync (sink). The organ-stand was obviously facing the wrong way.
Sitting at home, self quarantine during the Corona crisis In The Netherlads, seeing this put a big big smile on my face. Sorry Louis, never heard of you before today. But as of now I'm a fan!
Just spotted the few graphical overlays that occur from 3:50...the snorkel, the little dude crawling across the ceiling, the picture of Louis on the wall. There's probably more that I missed. Genius!
This is SOOO fantastic. As a somewhat older muso type, hearing such talented youngsters sound SOOO great is just beautiful. My faith in humanity and the future of music is restored thanks to cats like Cole and co. Thank you SOOO much for this beautiful music, you beautiful people.
It’s not hard to find new great funk / jazz / whatever you like to listen to, seems like people are just lazy and would prefer to reminisce the old times
I mean, it's Louis Cole and the whole thing is just crazy good, absolute top level musicianship, but Ben Wendel's solo? Just a certified face-melter and my eyes fell out of my head and now I'm typing this with black holes where my eyes once were and humming Badinerie.
THE GENIUS OF THE MUSIC OF THIS CENTURY! In Argentina we love him ... He is the influence of great bands, like "Octafonic" and "La rueda o el barco" ... I hope he comes for soon!
3:54 Badinerie is like the last thing I would expect being used in a sax-solo in a song by Knower, but somehow it fits xD Is Badinerie the new "Lick"?? Genius!...
The problem with LC is that I'm instantly convinced every track he puts out is the best thing he's ever done. I watch all his clips obsessively, loving them all. And maybe this one is top of the pile? (yeah I'll change my mind next week).
The set of this video is so bizarrely setup, yet it compliments the fantastic tunes do freakin well. Porch singers? Stair drumkit? STOVE KEYBOARD? I love it.
(Base X) bass or the melon? lol does he even play bass? i figured it out unfortunately...he replied to an elon musk tweet and the quote tweets were just “shut up melon boy” lol
Jacob Mann's keyboard solo at 2:33 is still the funkiest thing I've ever heard. Even though it's less than 20 seconds long, it will get stuck in my head for entire days on end. I wish I could play like that.
Just wanted to say thank you for the vibes. I work construction and often sing your hooks at absurdly high decibel levels whilst dangling from scaffold, pick, and ladder alike. Also inspires me to funk up my style on the bass. Stay true to the game as long as blood is blue in your vein, Louis.
Thanks Louis for making me go thru musical withdrawals when I don't listen to every song you've live banded every day I swear he's researched the tonal ranges/time signatures/keys/harmonies/BPM/Syncopation/vocals/arrangements/and live band combos for the optimal effectiveness of human musical addiction and combined all of these in every song he's produced...

And not only her, there´s also Moonchild´s keyboard-,trumpet- and basically everything-player, the very talented Andris Mattson on Trumpet in the back :)
Mine too. But was hoping a fuller version would be more like the original. This is still a great rendition I listen to a lot, but the horns don't really fit the original vibe, including the sax solo.

i like the way that the bassists face is suprised by his own timing without vanity ....its pure flow
Thats that stank face
brilliant description my god
Sam Wilkes turns up in some interesting places. Scary Pockets, Pomplamoose and others. Apart from his Bass Face, his footwear is often a subject of conversation.
Wilkes doesn’t actually know how to play bass.
He just let’s the funk gods take over his arms and he lets them do their thing.
He's jamming up a storm

yeaaaah dude we need a lifetime to jam like this

watchu doin in this town mr huang
This is actually the last live session we're going to see in this house because that sax solo caused a house fire
free eletric wires on the wall too. Not very secure :)
Damn Louis Cole these live sessions are the shit! I'm feeling the hell out of this version of Thinking.
This guy is gonna come back to his house and be confused as hell why people wanna book it to record.

Louis Cole, just go with this. I would preorder a bluray series box set with complimentary unreleased Clown Core basement single.

It's got a "Too Many Cooks" vibe
You should see the one in New York!
Adult Swim would so fucking pick that up
reginald I disagree

Just beginning to come to the same conclusion: While I love the studio versions, these "live sesh" vids are way more vibrant and ... alive!
Love the fact the camera people wear hazmat suits so they don't get infected by THE FUNK.
Beekeepers
They keep musicians like a beekeeper keeps bees
killer bees
hahahahaa best comment ever!! XD
That comment didn't age well lol feat covid
Sam is a precious bass player. Protect him at all costs!
I would just like to say, almost two years after this video dropped, that the zoom in on that girl's Guitar Center jacket is one of the hardest trolls I've seen since.
I don't get it
Anyone else addicted to his music ?
yeeeeeeeeep!!!
me.
no just you
Been singing this song in my head while sleeping. Talk about addiction...
I wish Spotify said how many times I listen to songs, because Louis Cole has gotten more playtime in the last 2 months since I first heard him that most other music!
Every new live session it seems Sam Wilkes has more and more fun each time and I love it
goodest BOI
Sam Wilkes is my spirit animal.
It is said that Sam Wilkes is composed about 91% of fun-funk-material, the 9% left is water.

Being a drummer for Louis Cole, what a dream that would be
I’ve listened to this song about a million times and I just gotta say, that bass line is so good I’m pretty sure that it could cure cancer
Bass player: Hey Louis, how funky do you want this to be?
Louis: Yes
Jamiroquai 2: Electric Boogaloo
*yes*

It's so funky sam grew his hair back.
@Benjamin McCann why not, I mean, go back and watch Overtime... He grew his hair back.

100% same here. Started going down the rabbit hole after hearing KNOWER in GTAV 2 days ago --- amazing!
YES! Welcome to the cutting edge!!
Do you think when you get to heaven Sam Wilkes is just sitting on the stairs running sick bass lines for the angels?
I sure hope so :)
Yeah probably
If that's not the case, I don't wanna go there.
And on the 8th day, God said, "Let there be funk."
On the 9th, he said let there be drums, and so that drums should not be alone, he created reverb.
I'm pretty sure funk is the devil's music
Someone on one of the other videos said the bass player looks like all 4 members of Vulfpeck.
I thought that was pretty funny.
It's true
Is it not Joe Dart!?
He does lol
Just spotted the few graphical overlays that occur from 3:50...the snorkel, the little dude crawling across the ceiling, the picture of Louis on the wall. There's probably more that I missed. Genius!

Also the turkey on the table during Jacob's solo at 2:42
actually it starts way earlier ;-)
Classiest keyboard stand ever.
More pert than classy.....:D
Feel like it was copied from Chromeo or Tiga and jori hulkkonen' live set up.
@@troyspartan992 What are their set ups? The same?
Louis is the unexpected gift no one wanted but is SOOOOOOOOOOOOO glad we got. His music is so simple yet so otherworldly. I likes it.
There's a huge amount of complexity underlying the surface simplicity.
Simple?
That bass is just insane
Louis Cole is so on another level that I can't even identify what level he's on much less how to get there
It's 2025 and i'm still vibing to this, Louis Cole is a cold piece of work ( in other words he's a bad Mofo) !!
Louis Cole just reinvented the keyboard solo.

Too much neck
Joe is all neck movement, while Sam has some serious funk face going on. It would be a battle for the ages.
