The chords coming out horn section sounded like Jerry Hay wrote them for Seawind. And yes, agree with that Pat Matheny vibe. All it took was a few measures and I became a fan!
@@Macanto Brahms does this throughout his 4th symphony... a good performance of it here... ua-cam.com/video/7QLuYj2jxoc/v-deo.html Might not be your usual listening, but if not, go with it, and watch as then camera does focus on the woodwinds at strategic moments. The way he uses woodwinds is very much part of his style. Enjoy!
Jonah adding those synths as the Flute solo is developping makes the experience so full and satisfying. And the sharing of the melody between Cory and Jonah is beautiful. Love it
I swear that if the full "Wongnotes" ensemble isn't present when they come to my city (Los Angeles) later this year, I'm going to start a riot! While I've loved every single musician who has played with Cory every time I've seen him play live here, he has never brought along The Hornheads crew. They are all members of The Wongnotes on the recording and videos, so they damn well better be present when they come to my town! I apologize if this seemed aggressive, lol. I've just seen so many of Cory's live shows where he is playing in Minneapolis and he always has The Hornheads backing him up for those shows but those guys never seem to go on tour with him.
@@gustafsone Saw them in SF on Friday, Hornheads in tow. It was awesome. I believe they were on to LA next - hope you enjoyed the show as much as I did!
@@c.j.caudle8869 Oh my gosh, yes! I saw Cory and his band 4 months or so before the pandemic shut everything down and they were amazing. This time, he brought along The Hornheads and I can't even! I'm still in disbelief of what I witnessed that night. Unbelievable musicians, the lot of them! We also got a special appearance of Dave Koz for a couple of songs, and then they closed the night with "Dean Town" because Jack was at the show and he wanted to sing and dance with the crowd, lol. I think that Petar might be the best hype-man that you band can have. Not only is he an absolute beast on the drums, but he was always getting the audience to clap to the beat and get into the show. I love that guy!
This is the most different style from Dirty Loops that I've ever heard so far... and absolutely LOVE IT (,too). Smooth and soft, it sounds just wonderful.
I can't believe I'm one of the first few to listen to this masterpiece. I'm gutted Dirty Loops had to postpone their tour date in Guildford, UK... and looking forward to seeing Cory live on October 22nd. It would be pure bliss if I could ever watch them playing together. One can only dream...
The more I hear this, the more details I can get, I love how Jonah added simple but beautiful piano part at 3:36 before the arpeggio, hopefully you all can perform this live!!
The tune reminds me a bit of Steely Dan's "Deacon Blues". There's also a certain amount of the CTI sound here - from those Sixties/Seventies pop-jazz albums with the gorgeous cover photos, the A-list players, and the super-polished production.
@@mattlogan1 Under other circumstances, I'd be very tempted to agree with you. However Jonah really has some tremendous synthesizer abilities that quite honestly are probably commensurate with Cory's. Albeit I haven't seen Jonah improvise anything quite like Lingus, but I think there's opportunity in the future. That said, if you decided to throw a Hammond B3 in anything, there is nobody else but Cory.
Every nuance is tied to another. These musicians are bound at the soul. They play their individual parts yet stay out of each other's way. They are some of the best musicians I've ever heard.
Dear Mr. Wong, I love this composition. A few bars into the song, it captured me. It's beautiful, dark, full, warm, slightly melancholy and lush. As a Percussionist and Drummer, it's one of those dream songs I'm always hoping for to come along. After listening to it a few times, which filled my head with lots of ideas, I played along for about an hour. Being only 04:03, I looped it so I could try out my ideas. I've added "Ring Of Saturn" to my (archived) Music Library, Playlist and Play Along List. However, I wish there was an additional 26 minutes to the song. In closing, I just wanted to say I have great admiration, appreciation and respect for your musicianship. I dig your choices and I think you're a beautiful, sensitive and very tasty player. Thank you for sharing your music with me. Respectfully, Leo de los Reyes Percussionist/Drummer
Love everything about this tune: Groove, melody, arrangements, execution, nuances, solos, feeling and the fact that dirty loops is leaving space between notes
Just do a YT search. Many in-the-studio, in-concert and "reaction" videos abound. Also, check out the first album, "Loopified" and EP, "Phoenix." Also look for "Songs for Lovers" on YT. ALSO check out Jonah Nilsson's new album "Now or Never" and his videos, "Coffee Break," "Diamond Ring" and "Bad" on YT. HAVE FUN!
"Follow the Light" sounded like both of Cory's and Dirty Loops' style at the same time, but this one sounds like none of them, although they both are fully capable of it and even killing it.
This is such delight to listen to, very Pat Metheny-esque especially in the chorus ..I noticed a bit of "have you heard" and "Third wind", Pat's influence can be felt in this track. Great job there from Cory and Dirty Loops, you guys don't just make music for general public but also music for musicians to enjoy.
Cory, Pat Metheny I am sure is happy to have you as a peer and you pushed Dirty Loops to a new dimension in their already unique position in the music industry.
Some have mentioned other artists, but it isn't even close. The overriding influence is Metheny and Mays......and it is fantastic. I would love to see Dirty Loops move more in the smooth jazz direction where their amazing skills can be fully expressed.
This is a phenomenal group of musicians. Grace Kelly's facial expressions are a perfect example of a "love of music." That's what this is...a celebration of musical talent.
What an outstanding blend of talent. Big thank you to all who put this together. So many worlds merging of late for me, first Jack Gardiner and Owane (including a cameo by Henrik!), now this. More please......
"Ring Of Saturn" is a Percussionist's dream song. There's so much going on in this tune. I love everything about this beautiful composition. BRAVO Mr. Cory Wong, BRAVO! Leo de los Reyes Percussionist/Drummer Fan and Subby of your Channel California, USA
I have never known another musical act that did as many high quality collaborations as Cory. Always a good day when it goes Wong.
Feels so right but so Wong 😬 ha. ha.
Try mezzoforte
Ye. You cant do anything Wong watching him 😌
Omg, I was looking for the Wong comment...
Right place, Wong time!
Pat Metheny and Esbjörn Svensson just had a baby. Glorious.
une partie très Pat Metheny , tout à fait d'accord
and m jackson and herbie hancock ! but sure !
and cedar walton !
you are as baby as possible )) Don't fuck the names U used coz U You didn't hear them.
Cory is really pushing for that Grammy, and we are all blessed for it.
That Grammy deserves a Cory.
I think he lives for this. Not for grammys.
Nobody cares about the Grammys. It's a joke. Music (and any other art) is not a competitive sport. True musicians do it for the love of music.
I here you gotta sell it to snatch the grammy
He should have about 5 by now :D
Tremendous Pat Metheny influence. Kenny Holman is probably the most underrated woodwind player out there.
Also could be the first alto flute solo on UA-cam
I heard more of an Al DiMeola vibe in the B section (not in the guitar playing).
The chords coming out horn section sounded like Jerry Hay wrote them for Seawind. And yes, agree with that Pat Matheny vibe. All it took was a few measures and I became a fan!
Kenny is beast!
...with a hint of Steely Dan in there, and even Bob James and Earl Klugh. Just beautiful.
Henrik is such a monster bass player, and it was awesome to hear him play a laid back tune. Subtle, tasteful... he NAILED it!!
Agree with you, he’s a bass god and very luckily not underrated
Yep a real good musician one could say :p serve the music first!
Yes!
The SnarkyPuppy vibe I got listening to this... just amazing style, I WANT MOAR!!!
Same...reminds me a lot of the Sylva album!
Exactly what I thought when I saw Cory's post on insta about this song
agree! 🍻
That flute and clarinet layering at 0:57 is something I didn't know that could sound so gorgeous; wow!
Absolutely, the flute solo is just beautiful!
Brahms did some pretty brilliant layering of woodwinds, back in the day...!
@@timbeaton5045 Interesting
Reminded me of Jethro Tull. :)
@@Macanto Brahms does this throughout his 4th symphony... a good performance of it here...

Might not be your usual listening, but if not, go with it, and watch as then camera does focus on the woodwinds at strategic moments. The way he uses woodwinds is very much part of his style. Enjoy!
This sounds like a modern homage to the best melodies of Pat Metheny, underlined with a decidedly Cory Wong funk and Dirty Loops groove. Fantastic.
That's exactly what I was thinking !
Me too
Pat Metheny at its best time. Great.
I’m hearing Steely Dan’s Aja and nothing else
Also has a touch of Ritenour and Grusin
Spanning genres and generations....Cory Wong unites the world and becomes supreme leader of the galaxy
Wow, Henrik holding down a no frills solid bass line. Another awesome performance!
That dude can do ANYTHiNG, scientifically proven.
Jonah adding those synths as the Flute solo is developping makes the experience so full and satisfying. And the sharing of the melody between Cory and Jonah is beautiful. Love it
It's so cool to hear Wong playing in a style he doesn't typically. What a great collab.
I see that double bell euphonium! We need a shirt made ASAP
😄
Holy shit, this flute Solo is absolutley insane, hope I can see Cory someday live
Kenni Holmen for ya. Flute isn’t even his primary instrument!

Seeing Cory twice - 22nd and 23rd - can't wait.
We need multiple albums of this stuff. So. Good.
The more I hear this, the more details I can get, I love how Jonah added simple but beautiful piano part at 3:36 before the arpeggio, hopefully you all can perform this live!!
Freaking jazzy! This is already turning into one of my favorite albums and there's only 2 songs out yet!
I agree with Taylor and I have never seen Dirty Loops so restrained. Incredible Horn arrangement again! Congratulations to all !!!
This is the Cory Wong + Snarky Puppy crossover everyone wished for, and it's glorious!
Dirty Loops’ drummer is extremely underrated
Aron is dope!!!!
@@CoryWongMusic indeed he is
🔥🔥🔥❣🤟🏽
I personally rate him VERY highly
Is he though? I'm pretty sure everyone who knows about him rates him very, very highly?
Such a ridiculous talent pool here, fantastic to watch and listen. Also enjoying that every release so far is a mini Grace Kelly reaction video.
Right? Instant quality assessment right there
brilliance...Truly incredible
no u

Yep. The Steely Dan is strong in this one!
And Yellow Jackets also
Ya think?! It’s almost a verbatim quote from Deacon Blues! Hey, steal from the rich, I always say. 😬
@@frednow Although Donald and Walter would probably tell you exactly what jazz classic THEY stole it from.
@@Baribrotzer Right. Although this one likely came from Tom Scott’s horn arrangement.
I've probably listen to this a million times now. The horn line from 3:06 - 3:21 is the horn line of life!!!
All that's missing is a bunch of people sitting down around them wearing headphones
Add in a Cory Henry for good measure
And a flugelhorn solo.
LOL I see we all had the same thought. I think it's partly due to the theme being played at the same time by the electric guitar and the brass.
Lolol

Love everything about this tune: Groove, melody, arrangements, execution, nuances, solos, feeling and the fact that dirty loops is leaving space between notes
And DL doing Latin jazz fusion? Holy crap mu dream has come true.
Pat Metheny Group/Spyro Gyra/Yellowjackets vibe in it! Great stuff! And the flute solo - OMG!!!
This is the masterpiece!!
Congratulations to all performers.Great musicians!!
Flute solo is incredibile!!!
DL and CW together is a beautiful thing. Sounds a bit like a Vince Mendoza arrangement. Love it! More please.
I just now realized that these guys did a whole album, now I'm hyped!
Found Dirty Loops last week and this happens! Need mooooore!

Love the flute in this one
Amazing.
A big tribute to our beloved Chick ❤️
I dig that flute solo ....... very much!!
Great! It sounds like flamenco-jazz. Chick Corea's Spain, or Chano Domínguez and Jorge Pardo. Always exploring, innovation. Thanks.
and a little sprinkle of the Police in the beginning
This is so beautiful ! A rich blend of the best musicians, like Pat Metheny, Keith Jarret, Chick Corea , Jonh Scoffield and many others … superb !
"Follow the Light" sounded like both of Cory's and Dirty Loops' style at the same time, but this one sounds like none of them, although they both are fully capable of it and even killing it.
exactly! thats what im saying right now!
It’s a jazz fusion straight and simple- fantastic performance.
G Kelly!!! This whole thing is stacked
Soo warm and comforting, like a warm blanket. Just what I needed for this cold and rainy early autumn evening!
I've never follow a woodwind very much but that clarinet and flute Duo is incredible. Those two could front their own album.
Absolutely brilliant!!! a thousand LIKES!
never expected 4 minutes to be this short.
As a team, it sound like fourplay, PMG, ...
Incredible flute solo!
The trills of the flutist had me squeezing my eyebrows in joy
🤣🤣 Me too!!
Might be time to grow up mate
Best in the world,,,,Dont Ever stop

Yet another phenomenal Cory Wong/Dirty Loops collaborative effort!
Amazing collab! 👏👏👏
The drums in this is making me dizzy. That's how beautifully it's played ♥️
Cory Metheny eh? Not that I'm complaining... Love this!
I love the Mix! Drums, piano and horns feel so wide and open while bass and guitar are just rock solid, yet super smooth. Amazing!
This is the true meaning of the word fusion. Wonderful.
That section at 1:55 - 2:20 has Pat Metheny/Lyle Mays written all over it…. and that’s a damn good thing. 🎼🔥🎵🔥❤️🦁☀️
I say the same, make that feel.
that is my favorite part of this song ! amazing chord progression, melody, so,so awesome !!!
Some have mentioned other artists, but it isn't even close. The overriding influence is Metheny and Mays......and it is fantastic. I would love to see Dirty Loops move more in the smooth jazz direction where their amazing skills can be fully expressed.
Excellent work!!!!
Musical bliss. Thank you to all the musicians and everyone involved.
Beautiful! And hints of the Dan coming through in places.
Getting some Chuck Mangione - El Gato Triste vibes off of this track. Well done.
Cory Wong and Dirty Loops playing together is like… I don't know. I wouldn't even have dared to dream about it. Gosh, you guys and gals make me happy!
When Grace Kelly’s happy, I’m happy.
Great talents collaborating in the creation of musical beauty
You are killing it with these singles. Can´t wait for the album guys. So good.
This is a phenomenal group of musicians. Grace Kelly's facial expressions are a perfect example of a "love of music." That's what this is...a celebration of musical talent.
When that jazz flute comes in...damn
Nearly Ron Burgundy level. 😳
Bad ass flute solo!
Loving the Corea/Metheny influence here. Keep doing you, man.
So many different emotions in this masterpiece, listening for the 4th time in a row now, gives me goosebumps! Absolutely amazing!
I really love the flute. One of my favorite jazz instruments.
Metheny and Mays in the house Pedro Aznar too - Great!
Reminds me of SnarkyPuppy! So great!
Absolutely awesome collaboration, I can‘t wait for the full album!
Anyways…. Is no one going to mention the DOUBLE BELL EUPHONIUM?!
It's certainly a rare pokemon!
The last thing I’d expect
very good musical color mix
This is beautiful! As if Kenni wasn't talented enough on the sax, he had to go slay the flute too!
Kenni is one of my favorite musicians right now.
There's a bit in Cory Wong // Live in MPLS 2019 where he brings a piccolo on-stage. Lots of musical in-jokes at that performance.
Kenni slays hard on the flute in 'Cory and the Wongnotes - Heist' as well :)
@@skierpage That's such a great solo! One of my favourites no matter the instrument!

Bro shut the front door NO WAY!!!!! 🔥🔥🙏🏼🌎💫
Aahhhh its grace kellyyyyy!!
Reminds me the best years of Pat Metheny Group! Brilliant!!!
Yep. Pedro Aznar's voice even!
I wasn't expecting a flute solo to be my favorite part with such a lineup
As if one Cory wasn't great enough they made three of him
Can they clone one for me as well pls?
The Cory TriWongle
incredible tune, gorgeous instrumentation, beautiful flute solo, up there with the best of the Pat Metheney Group
Did anyone else register the flute and clarinet(?) at 0:57 as one polyphonic instrument because it was so TIGHT?
This is just beyond amazing!
Que obra maestra, acaso soy el único que siente las LATINO'S VIBES MELODIES? 😍
Absolútamente!
Brasilean Samba and Spain's Flamenco vibes
Es sin duda latín jazz fusión, pero jamás me lo
Hubiera esperado de DL. Estos suecos pueden hacer lo que se les ocurra.
