I mean to take absolutely nothing away from any other musician on stage with Henrik, but sometimes I swear that half the reason Dirty Loops is so popular is because they actually have the balls to let the bass be heavily present in the mix. There are some phenomenal bassists out there, but they're rarely given such a spotlight like this. It's incredible.
The musicianship of all of these guys (including Cory Wong and his Hornheads) is off the charts. I think the thing that makes Dirty Loops, Cory Wong, and Vulfpeck so amazing and tight is that none of them allow their ego to get in the way. They're all highly technical and gifted musicians, they all know it, and they all genuinely respect eachother's abilities and they all truly like each other. You can see the joy on their faces when they play and it's infectious. And Grace Kelly's stank face is everything.
I wasn’t expecting that whatsoever!!!!!! Drummer was fantastic, vocalist was great but that dang bassist was freaking awesome!!!!! Definitely get more Dirty Loops my friend!!!!!! Your reaction was absolutely priceless 😳😳😳 😊😁😂🤣😂
Work Shit Out, Rock You, and Breakdown, are all must listens! There's so much musicality going on but yet it manages to retain that pop accessibility. To me they show that you can write complex music and still have be grooving and fun and catchy, reminds me a lot of how dense someone like Prince's music was etc
In terms of musical arrangement, I think Next To You is a better pick than Work Shit Out. Work Shit Out shows their musical skill well, but I think Next To You was just written better (the way it spans genres too). Either song is great though! Don't get me wrong. Breakdown and Rock You are also awesome!
Quincy Jones is just their manager though. They produce their songs themselves, together with Simon Petrén. I heard one of them say, in an interview, that they don’t send Quincy anything, not even demos, until it’s completely finished. They’re mad as hatters and it’s utterly brilliant. 😁
@@markprater1 I'm sure it's made as an MJ tribute, and is supposed to sound a bit like him, but if you ask me it doesn't sound like it actually IS an MJ sample, but rather something they've created in some other way. And even if it is a real sample, it doesn't change the fact that QJ isn't their producer in any way. He's still just the manager. I'm sure they could have gotten a sample either way, if that is what it is.
Great reaction. You MUST do more Dirty Loops. They've got such epic material and you'll love all of it. I suggest "Work Sh!t Out", "Rock You", and "Next to You" in particular. I loved the way you grooved with this. They always leave you wanting more. Also, the credits can sometimes be long, but they're worth reading because they put some funny stuff in them quite often. Lastly, I love your shirt.
No one is prepared for Dirty Loops on first listen! Insane skills as a 3-piece then add in Cory Wong with the rhythm guitar and the horn section... it just gets better!
Just in case you didn't know, they actually recorded this in two separate studios on different continents with the same sets and cameras. When you see Corey and everyone "reacting" to the Dirty Loops guys- they're not actually there, and vice versa. Absolutely stunning visual production on this, not to mention the monster musicians.
That's bonkers. I guessed it wasn't a single take with a few overdubs here and there but I assumed they were at least in the same room. That makes this even more impressive.
@Dirtyloops are all incredible. Henrik is truly a bass genius but let's not forget the immense talent both drummer and keyboardist have. So so tight. Insanely talented all of them.
That opening is such a shot of adrenaline, and so ballsy. Very *very* few *musicians* could even live up to that intro, and they've got an entire BAND that blows the roof off. It's the kinda song that leaves you sore from how much grooving you do while you're listening I'm really enjoying classical stank face. Your enjoyment is super earnest, and I really appreciate it.
Hahaha your reaction to that final key change.. I was waiting for it through the whole video! Love the way you picked it up with such ease. Says a lot about your own ability.
Loved your reaction. Great when a reactor listens to something more than once-shows he's really paying attention. Big Loops fan here. You're going to get a lot of requests, just know this. There are NO bad Loops songs. They are all unique and I've never heard a bad one. Welcome to LoopsWorld.
From one Doug to another, I am glad that you discovered and chose to review this. I provided financial support and helped them produce the “Turbo” album. That horn section is Cory Wong’s horns, known as the Wongnotes. The entire album is fabulous.
@@dougmael oh hey, whatever you did, thanks for helping get this stuff out into the world!! I figure while there's there's virtually no chance of me ever getting to hang out with these particular musicians, I could work on coolness by association by hanging out with folks who supported these guys instead, it seems a lot more of a realistic goal. ☺️
It is amazing that despite its complexity and sophistication this song is so catchy and uplifting! I love to listen to it while riding my bike. Doug, thank you for yet another great video! Your enthusiasm is contagious!
Doug at 6:30. :D I get it, dude. That groove is irresistible. You need to do "Work Shit Out". Brilliant song, and as a piano player you will particularly appreciate it... ;)
I read under the originally posted video of this tune that the two halves of the band weren't even on the same continent, much less the same room! Just good editing and identical staging!
Yep you hit the jackpot with this group! Next to you, breakdown, rock you, work shit out…lots of great original stuff plus a ton of older cover songs with endless reharmonizations and cool arrangements!
I've watched others do a reaction to Dirty Loops but your video was the best. You have true excitement listening to the group. I've never seen anyone try to figure out the chord progressions like you did during the video. Well done, and entertaining.
WORK SHIT OUT is the definite Dirty Loops track. Just the three of them (no Cory Wong, no horns - don't need them!!!). Super track, highlights every member - will BLOW YOU AWAY!!!
All 3 Dirty Loops were classically trained at the Stockholm Royal Academy of Music where they were friends. They compose first on paper then go into the studio.
Wow! What a groove! Oh and hi Doug! Been following the channel for a while now but this is my first comment. I'm usually watching on my big screen but grabbed my phone so I could comment and tell you how much I enjoy the show! You're a class act, and I always look forward to the Daily Doug
I’m really glad to see these guys had such a profound effect on you as they did on me, I’m not a musician but I really appreciate great music like this
Wow. I've vaguely heard of these guys but never heard of them... but I'm an instant fan. I love jazz, funk, and pop anyway, but put them all together and I'm in heaven. Definitely be downloading their discography soon.
Just subbed! I love watching reactions where the reactor is musically educated and can break it down to the nitty gritty! You may have already given Cory Wong's other bands a listen but if you haven't, holy buckets, it's phenomenal! The Fearless Flyers, Vulfpeck, and Cory Wong and the Wong Notes! All of it just stanky in the best of ways.
I hope this opens up the genres in your channel. I like rock and metal, don't get my wrong, but this fusion kinda of music is amazing and would love to see more of it in your channel
Dude! This is really cool. Reminds me of the first two Toto albums with Joseph Williams singing (Fahrenheit & The Seventh One), but more intense. Thanks for reacting to this, Mr, Doug.
Dirty Loops came about when these three cats were jaming while attending the musical highschool. They suggested to take a famous pop song and then twist it around and have fun with it. Rest is history.
On first listen, everybody seems to react with "WHAT?!?" at the end of a Dirty Loops song. I know I did. :D Even when I know the band now, I still react with "WHAT?!?" at the end of every new release they make.
That was great! Of course I must do my due diligence and continue to hammer you with my request for the studio version of Rush’s Natural Science! Thanks for these videos Doug.
They have a insanely cool cover of Thriller by Michael Jackson. It’s genius. They’re playing it in 12/8 can recommend reacting to it. It’s on the turbo album too.
Yay!! I’ve been wanting you to do dirty loops for a while now!! Great reaction, please go down the dirty lips rabbit hole. Do work shit out, and breakdown, one that is overlooked is their cover of forever young.
Doug! Thank you for doing Dirty Loops. My favorite track of theirs is Rock You but I think any song from them is worthy of your review in this channel. They also have covers of some pop songs that are great as well. Looking forward to more of their songs here!
Really appreciate you letting the track play through without pauses. I had to restart it on my first listen as well when I first heard this tune as I wasn't prepared either. Hendrik is a beast and that brass section is tight. Some great comments from others on here. Its rare I agree with everything people are saying.
You already know this from my Discord post Doug but I think the best way to jump into Dirty Loops is to do an extended play lounge for them considering their songs are usually pretty short and the fact that you are always left wanting more lol. Hope to hear more soon!
Getting in a Christmas request early. Bela Fleck and the Flecktones version of "The 12 Days of Christmas." Each day is in a different key and it's corresponding time signature based on the day number ie., 1/1, 2/2, 3/4, 11/8 etc.
Hey Doug! Hope all is good! Would love to see you with another Dirty Loops-song within soon! I would suggest their song "Next to you". Peace and love bro!
They came to Australia a couple of years (2015) as a support act to Maroon 5. I know some people who were blown away by them at their concert, including serious Aussie musicians. Best band I have heard in 71 years.

Great comment 👍
It’s only three in the band, no guitar, no sax, no trumpet , and for me it’s "normal" for a jazzy trio.
You have officially been loopified my friend. Your life will never be the same!!!!!
Henrik Linder is a master of his craft. Probably one of the greatest bassists alive.
one of?
@@iamsamhurdphotography Aye. There are some pretty legendary bassist out there. Henrik is among them.
100% agree! The level of skill and mastery is amazing!
@@akio2589Henrik, Joe Dart, Victor Wooten
@@person3538 Aye, I said one of, not "the."
This shit is what should be topping the charts!
People don't want talent, they want characters with face tattoos
Amen to that, Elias
This stuff will never be on the charts. Who cares about the charts anyway, we've got UA-cam!
It should ... positive, happy, brings joy. Truthfully it should. Why people and kids would rather listen to. Them swedes know how to play.
Abso-effin-lutely!
"I was not prepared for that intro," that's what I always say after looping this song for hours...
The trombone player is Michael B Nelson. He toured with Prince and wrote Prince's horn arrangements...
The musicianship of all of these guys (including Cory Wong and his Hornheads) is off the charts. I think the thing that makes Dirty Loops, Cory Wong, and Vulfpeck so amazing and tight is that none of them allow their ego to get in the way.

You can see the joy on their faces when they play and it's infectious. And Grace Kelly's stank face is everything.
The funny thing is: considering their past work, they held back themselves here
I came back for another listen. Thanks, Doug.
I wasn’t expecting that whatsoever!!!!!! Drummer was fantastic, vocalist was great but that dang bassist was freaking awesome!!!!! Definitely get more Dirty Loops my friend!!!!!! Your reaction was absolutely priceless 😳😳😳 😊😁😂🤣😂
Dirty Loops met at the royal Swedish Music Academy. The keyboard player studied composition.

I second that
Work shiit out plssssssssss :DDD
In terms of musical arrangement, I think Next To You is a better pick than Work Shit Out. Work Shit Out shows their musical skill well, but I think Next To You was just written better (the way it spans genres too).
Either song is great though! Don't get me wrong.
Breakdown and Rock You are also awesome!
@@ErnestRamos I agree. But I would certainly watch any of his Dirty Loops reaction videos.
@@tparmenter definitely!
Their song "Work shit out" has one of my favorite musical moments in years. The transition to the piano solo.
Quincy Jones is just their manager though. They produce their songs themselves, together with Simon Petrén. I heard one of them say, in an interview, that they don’t send Quincy anything, not even demos, until it’s completely finished. They’re mad as hatters and it’s utterly brilliant. 😁
You don't think that the MJ samples came from Q ?

It just sounds like Cory Wong songs on steroids.@@markprater1

Hear hear!!
Breakdown is my favourite among their newer releases.
+1!!
I thought I was listening to a Quincy / Michael Jackson comeback - great groove
They have a great cover of Thriller, replete with half time break. Incredible musicianship.
Doug dancing? Yeahh!!! This made my day!!! Dirty Loops is soooo good
I love the reactions lol reacted the same way listening to this majestic track
No one is prepared for Dirty Loops on first listen!
Insane skills as a 3-piece then add in Cory Wong with the rhythm guitar and the horn section... it just gets better!
Great, Doug! Thanks so much!
Drugs reaction at 7.04 is priceless. Brilliant stuff.

That's bonkers. I guessed it wasn't a single take with a few overdubs here and there but I assumed they were at least in the same room. That makes this even more impressive.
@@johnnyonline They did the whole album like this. It's nuts.
@@johnnyonlineDirty Loops is a Swedish band, so that's why
@@johnnyonlinea bit late to the party here but the drummer does the video production.
"Work Shit Out" and "Coffee Break Is Over" is a must Dirty Loops reaction
I envy you because you have so much more of Dirty Loops to explore! The three members of DL are all classically trained musicians.
ps please, listen to Jonah Nilssons version of "Bad" ds
Henrik Linder is my favorite new bass player. He's a total beast.
Gz! Finally you meet these talented swedes, and you have soo many more songs ahead of you! Keep up the good work!
I love your dancing and Vibing to the music... makes me so happy...amazing reaction

Hahaha the look on your face at the opening.... priceless :-D That made my day...
Hahaha your reaction to that final key change.. I was waiting for it through the whole video!
Love the way you picked it up with such ease. Says a lot about your own ability.
Been a loyal fan for about 4 years. Welcome to the club!
First time I've seen a bass player using Whammy. Henrik Linder is on another level
Need to make a Doug dancing gif 🕺

This is so great! This song always make me happy.
This was awesome! I love your work and loved seeing you getting speechless listening to Dirty Loops! They're from another planet!
Henrik and Aron are beasts at their tradecraft. Jonah is a gift on the keyboard. And vocals
LOL man, that car analogy was exactly me listening this fot the first time half year ago 🤣🤣
My favorite part of this arrangement was the modulation at the end. SICK!
Yeah, listen to more of this band!
It's so fun to me how Dirty Loops manage to put a smile on every musicians face when they first hear them.
The “WHOA!” reaction 😂💥❤️❤️
It is amazing that despite its complexity and sophistication this song is so catchy and uplifting! I love to listen to it while riding my bike. Doug, thank you for yet another great video! Your enthusiasm is contagious!
One of the utmost greatest reactions. Superb analysis! (And oh my goodness there is soooo much here for you to enjoy...)
I saw them live in Helsinki earlier this year and they were f*cking amazing. The musicianship, the groove, incredible.

The beauty of music shown in all its amazing amazingness as exemplified by Doug’s fantastic body language whilst grooving to the band.
Yep you hit the jackpot with this group! Next to you, breakdown, rock you, work shit out…lots of great original stuff plus a ton of older cover songs with endless reharmonizations and cool arrangements!
Like you said , Doug : they are all great !!!
Love the research you do at the beginning! Awesome reaction
I've watched others do a reaction to Dirty Loops but your video was the best. You have true excitement listening to the group. I've never seen anyone try to figure out the chord progressions like you did during the video. Well done, and entertaining.

WORK SHIT OUT is the definite Dirty Loops track. Just the three of them (no Cory Wong, no horns - don't need them!!!). Super track, highlights every member - will BLOW YOU AWAY!!!
Recommendation: Pain of Salvation- lter impius and martius nauticus live. It's way different from King of loss
Seconded
Made the same sugestion.

"Work shit out" is the best. When you do the next one.

Thanks for the early drop! So much easier for me to find time to take a break and watch. :-)
Amazing,I'm crying 😨😱🥺😭
Their latest single, Turbo, deserves a listen too! It's completely instrumental and they go HAM

The progressions and the key change at the end of this song are just the icing on the cake, the brilliance of this song is in the RHYTHM.
Yo Daily D, you MUST do "Work Sh!t Out", DL's drummer really shines on that super uptempo track. Peace!

At 5:07 that's Grace Kelly with the blue hair. She's quite a phenom on her own. Wow!
