Yoko Kanno is an AMAZING composer and arranger! 👀👌
When I played this song in big bands I had no clue what it was even from.
I think it's time to check out Cowboy Bebop very soon

⏩Video Question: Who are your favorite composers in anime?
I want to learn much more about Yoko Kanno for sure! Here is some basic information:
Yoko Kanno (菅野 よう子 Kanno Yōko?), born March 19, 1964 in Miyagi Prefecture, Japan, is a composer, arranger and musician who scored for the Cowboy Bebop anime series, movie, video games, and the live-action remake. She is also the keyboardist and frontwoman for the band The Seatbelts.
Omg the madman he did it!
Yoko Kanno is definitely an industry legend.
I Like Yuki Kajiura with her opera like themes. Especially in Madoka Magica:
1. Sis Puella Magica
2. Absolute Configuration
are 2 of my favorite tracks.
And then in Fate / Stay series:
1. The Sword Of Promised Victory
2. They Rule The Battlefield
Yasuharu Takanashi's work is amazing, in classics like Fairy Tail and Naruto,
And particularly love Toshio Masuda's beautiful and otherworldly compositions in Mushi Shi though.(which is an amazing episodic anime that i highly recommend, very digestible since every episode has its on ending)
Also the entire soundtrack of "Nagi no Asukara" by various composers.
my favs would be Tsuneo Imahori , he composed the OST for boxing show called Hajime no Ippo 2002, it has very rocky, grungy and loud sound to it that works with the grit of boxing .
Kensuke Ushio ,he did SIlent voice OST , its a lot more ambience focused and understated than most anime soundtracks
Naturally Hiroyuki Sawano who did Attack on Titan music for first 3 seasons
Honestly theres just too many
One of my fav is Kenichiro Suehiro - he composed several arrangements for Re:Zero which are incredible. Shiro Hamaguchi - he did One Piece (absolute legend of an anime) and some Final Fantasy games. And of course Yoshihisa Hirano - he composed some of my absolute favorite pieces in Hunter x Hunter, Death Note and ton of others.
i love all the names in the coments, but i could says my fav actually are sawano hiroyuki and kevin penkin
Requiem of Silence (from Re:Zero anime) composer Kenichiro Suehiro
The entire Cowboy Bebop sound track is a complete groove. And the anime is top notch! Top 3 for me!
And 2 years ago, the Seatbelts did a virtual session of this. Absolutely worth checking out! The shadow dancing woman is actually Yoko Kanno! And something interesting to note about Tank!, the Sax Solo is NEVER performed exactly the same.
ua-cam.com/video/2VsgkIE-RHg/v-deo.html
Yeah definitely in my top 3 too bro
How did you get through it? I gave up halfway through because the episodes were too contained.
@@lucriciousthetrainer4365 Cowboy bebop really isn’t about the big story arc or plot. It’s a study in characterization and mood. But if that doesn’t appeal to you then it’s probably just not your thing.
This and samurai Champloo is just💥
I had no idea Tank was such an iconic song outside the anime community but it makes sense even my grandparents enjoyed this song when i played it for them.
That’s what’s up
Based grandparents
That's fantastic to hear
My parents came to my big band concert and even though they always talk shit about anime this song was their favorite among the 18 we played. We played John Was don’s arrangement though
I was not expecting to hear this song when I went to a drum corps competition last week. My daughter was wearing her cowboy bebop shirt and she lost her mind. It was her first in person drum corps experience and it brought her to tears. She's now determined to march with SCV. Which corps were you in?
I'm glad someone has commented about the DCI part. Sheeeesh! I marched with the Seattle Cascades! Good times. Can't wait to see BD in a few weeks
Same when i first heard the preseason performance and they played tank, i lost my mind lol
@@DrumRollTonyReacts I was a trumpet player in my local highschool band and grew up watching the battle of the bands held in Charlotte. Carolina Crown is the DCI group I follow but having graduated 2011 no one in my class didn't know who the blue devils were. I will definitely be sharing that clip with my friends^^
@@chemislife I CANT WAIT To hear Crown.
@@DrumRollTonyReacts Guts Theme Please 🙂
This theme is unavoidable since it's one of the legendary ones,
My high school jazz band senior year played this or was going to play this in festival, I even had the sax solo 💀 unfortunately this took place in 2020 and we were all quarantined, years later I’m now a 3rd yr in college and every time I glance at my sax in my room I’m just reminded of what could have been 🥲
lol I'm sorry!
I definitely recommend reacting to Guts theme
Up
Up
Guts theme from the 90s anime Berserk, it's a masterpiece and the manga's so good that there hasn't been a single decent anime adaptation since the 90s release.
Ufff what a recommendation!
Damn
I love the fact that you can just feel the trumpets peeling the paint of the damn ceiling, with that high, piercing, silver notes they're hitting...
The ost was ahead of its time. Yoko kanno is a legend.
The irony since this is a 60's jazz throwback.
@@cteal2018 true for “Tank”. But the show’s styles and influences are much deeper and more diverse than just that. The Cowboy Bebop OST runs the gamut between countless genres of music
I'm a simple man: I see "TANK", I click.
Former marching snare player through high school and a private corps after, very happy to see you give us some BD. I know I'm a year late, but now I get to go look up their performance!
Thanks for this!
What an iconic opening song. And, if you really haven't watched the show so far, I highly recommend doing so. I think it's a masterpiece and one of my favorite animes of all time. Dark, mature, but very funy. Great story and characters and one of the best soundtracks to any show ever.
under rated comment and very humble praise.
I loved the show. The soundtrack is great. I never skipped through the opening.
@@jwag301 thank you eric 😊
Completely agree great show top 5 for me but also funny has 2 n’s
I LIKE Yoko Kanno.
I especially like the music of the anime GHOST IN THE SHELL(攻殻機動隊).
"Inner Universe"
"Rise"
"player"
These songs are sung in English and Russian.
Ghost in the shell : Stand alone Complex has such a great and diverse soudtrack
All the openings are indeed in Russian/English (sung by the late Origa), but there is also great song in Italian/English sung by Ilarya Graziano (I do, I can't be cool, Velveteen...) and some... oddyties sung by the legendary Gabriella Robin (Kanno's alter ego) sung in "Kanno", words from different languages or made up that are put together to form a melodic gibberish (Tachikoma out for a Walk, Torukia, Cyberbird...)
I will never get tired of the smile on musicians faces when this song is playing , especially that ending climax 🤣🤣
COWBOY BEBOP (I understood the title is a reference to a 1950’s term for competitive horn playing) is my favorite anime series. It’s definitely worth watching. This recording (CD version) of Tank is different from the version in the anime opening, which is shorter and from a different take.
The ending song, “The Real Folk Blues” is an awesome ballad. You should check that one out next.
Shout out to the SANTA CLARA VANGUARD. Anyone interested in learning more about the intense world of drum corps might enjoy the movie “DRUM LINE,” which is set in a fictional HBC.
The Anime Gives Back version of Real Folk Blues from FUNimation back when COVID-19 first hit is *chef's kiss* as well.
If you're talking about the title COWBOY BEBOP, their ship is the Bebop, and Cowboys are what they refer to bounty hunters as. The title references the ship which references the music style.
"competitive horn playing" what😆. Bebop is a style of jazz characterized by fast tempo and super crazy chord progressions, no competitions going on there haha
Yoko Kano is amazing. This version of Tank will always be my favorite, but she also remixed it for the Netflix live action show as well.
Worth listening too if you haven’t before.
It has some subtle changes but it’s still very much Tank!
I just love Yoko Kanno so much. If possible, listen to her album Songs to fly, which contains selected songs from soundtracks of different media, it's just too beautiful.
You should listen to "The Real Folk Blues" by the Seatbelts, it's from Cowboy Bebop as an ending song and it's one of my favorite songs ever.
Fun fact: it is physically impossible to listen to this song without pumping up the volume
I’m from Columbus Indiana and I was in the Columbus north marching band and I love watching dci. Not a lot of people realize how much effort you have to put into it but the end result is always worth it. I wish I got the chance to play this song
what instrument do you play?
@@DrumRollTonyReacts I play the trumpet I usually play the lower parts of a piece
If you're not aware of them, you absolutely need to check out the Tachibana Highschool band. They're of of the best marching bands in Japan. Though I won't be surprised if you already know them.
I do know them BUT I had not thought about reactions to them. Good idea
@@DrumRollTonyReacts I thought you might. I remember stumbling onto them and immediately realizing that what I was watching was some seriously top level shit.
Just watched Blue Devils play this at finals!!! 🔥
You should definitely react to more Yoko Kanno, and also more of Cowboy Bebop's soundtrack in general.
I have a feeling you'd really like Rush especially
I'll also add, for my generation at least (1987 model, myself) Blues Brothers did so much to introduce folks into Jazz, Blues and Rhythm & Blues etc.
Shout out to Blue Devils! And D&B in general. Some of my favorite memories are playing marching bass and snare. I miss it, and love watching/hearing bands play.
Great to have drumline people in here!
Yoko Kanno also did music for the Macross series of mech anime. Macross, while being a mech show, features female characters who sing pop music as a very prominent element.
She actually used a pen name for.. I believe the lyrics for a lot of the Macross songs.
She's done a lot more, some much more out there compared to Macross, but in my mind, there's something about being able to create both good pop music and all the rest of the stuff she's done that showcases just how great a songwriter she is.
1:55 As a bassist in big bands and combos, I have to agree with you 100% xDD
oh man you gotta watch cowboy bebop, its such a classic and has such a good aesthetic, my only complaint is that it's too short 😭😭
OMG the memories. I'm a clarinet and oboeist. Give me a great brass and saxophone solo - pkaylist ALL DAY!!Best anime video next to the OST from Death Note. Thanks 😊
Sweet. Glad to hear there are more musicians in the comments!
Such an great show, this opening plays before you know whether the episode is gonna be goofy, sad, scary, cheerful, or all of them. Every episode is very distinct.
Speaking of, maybe react to the ending theme
This comment is 5 months late but I just wanted to say I love when other tunes I know make it into field shows. I remember going to a DCI event a few years ago and picked out music from Fantastic Beasts and Where to find them in one of the shows(and I'm upset I can't remember which group performed it). Awesome video!
Edit: it was the 2018 Blue Devils show it seems lol
The last 15 seconds of this song is my all time favourite outro ever.
"You have your brass, melting your face off..." This defines big band for me, thank you.
I would love to recommend another masterpiece from Hiroyuki Sawano, the OSTS from the movie "Bubble". It has a variety of songs composed by Hiroyuki, most of them are only instrumental but every single one has a special and unique melody. I assure you, you're gonna get goosebumps. It's probably my favorite work from him so far.
By the way, I love your channel and reactions :)
Got to play this song for my last jazz band concert senior year of high school along with Pat Metheny's "The First Circle". Both songs contained some of the highest notes I ever had to play as 2nd trumpet.
Also I wasn't aware you had a Drum Corps background. The high school I went to had the only competitive high school drum corps in the states until 2012 when they decided to become a marching band (unfortunately this was my senior year). Never got to march DCI but I did a summer of DCA back in 2009 with a corps called the Sun Devils. To this day marching is still one of the most rewarding experiences I ever went through.
I love Pat Metheny!
Yoko and The Seatbelts are a very tight band !
Recently subbed to your channel and I'm loving your musician perspective so far. I suggest giving Baccano! a try. Its OP and OST 1 is similar to Tank if not more. Have a great day!
If you like this, 100% check out "What Planet is This?" Its my favorite song in all of Cowboy Bebop and its incredible.
Such an underrated track since it’s from the movie. That entire dog fight scene is fucking epic!!!
My favourite list (it's really treasure for me):
1. Shiro Sagisu - The final decision we all must take
2. Shiro Sagisu - My brother
3. Shiro Sagisu - In my spirit
4. Shiro Sagisu - Treachery
5. Yoko Kanno - Moon
6. Yoko Kanno - Torukia
7. Susumu Hirasawa - Gats
8. Maaya Sakamoto - Kiseki no Umi
9. Yuki Kajiura - Canta per me
It's not from anime, from game, but you should listen😍
10. Chris Christodoulou - Coalescence
11. Hades - Through Asphodel
Also you can listen
12. Hiroyuki Sawano feat Gemie - Light and Shadow
Hello from Russia😘
If you check out The Real Folk Blues (both Japanese and English versions are great) be sure to also check out the Special Performance collab they released to youtube in 2020 as well. ua-cam.com/video/8GwE0wwMmKE/v-deo.html
Also there are a number of great songs off the OST, Gotta knock a little harder being one of my favorites.
What Planet Is This?! is definitivelly my favorite song from the movie
My fav intro to any anime. Just amazing.
On the full CD collection there's an extra track with Ed singing the lyrics to Tank!
Love this show, love the music! Love the breakdown. Really appreciate you bringing the music knowledge for us folks with musical backgrounds, while still keeping it entertaining.
Btw, Polyphia just dropped a new single (Neurotica) you should check it out - the drum work is wicked, and I’d be interested in your take!
I imagine anyone who does a lot of jazz or big band work probably gets more requests for Tank! than almost any other song.
Recommend listening to ranking of kinds openings, great show, and as for you, great content so far, love to see you enter the genre
Here I was, having so much fun with the AOT video, about to recommend you to listen to The Seatbelts or Yoko Kanno in general (I recommend,insist, the things she did for the Escaflowne series), and was surprised to see this one! Because dude...this whole show and the music...almost no words for it.
I'm definetly having the best time of my life here with you, even if you don't know about anime or a specific show I can see your passion for music, so thank you, keep it up!
One of my favorites! Thanks, Tony.
MAN Tank is a banger. Somehow I forget and am surprised every single time. There's really not anything like it in anime - save for the opening to Baccano! If you want more big band grooves
Man and I said this in a previous comment but it's so good that every time you pause to comment, you give your thoughts and roll it back a fair amount - it's such a small thing but if there's ever a case where you pause at a really choice moment, it's not ruined. That moment isn't lost on you or anything. So many other reactors just kinda stop and go and miss a lot that way. Keep up the great work man
heck yea. id love to see you go over some lot videos or classic shows from dci history
I'll be taking a ton of lot vids at finals. Never know about other youtubers lots vids if they would get mad for using their video or not.
I had no idea that the Blue Devils were performing this song! I haven't really been following DCI for a while but you have reignited my interest. I have pleasant memories of going to a competition for the first time back in 2010.
AOT x DBD out today. Let's go.
Also thanks for reviewing tank
With this intro you're missing out on seeing the visuals in the anime opening. It introduces the characters as the song progresses and the characters have their own theme to how/when the music comes in.
And I'm also missing visual copyright ©️ so that a good thing.
@@DrumRollTonyReactslol I think you’d be alright brutha , there’s a UA-camr that has a literal 30 minute breakdown of the opening and it’s visuals and how the visuals and music mix together to subtlety give context to each of the characters. It’s actually an amazing vid you should check out sometime just look up “what’s in an OP cowboy bebop” by “mothersbasement” . He’s a great content creator
"Stardust crusaders" another JoJo theme, think you would enjoy it!
would love to see you react to some "Initial D" tracks like "Deja Vu" "Running In The 90's" and "GAS GAS GAS"
Now I want to know what u think about Trigun opening
While it is a very different style from most of the anime theme music you've been listening to, I think you might enjoy "Sono Koe ga Chizu ni Naru" - the opening theme for season 2 of "Snow White with the Red Hair". The anime is a romantic adventure, and the theme reflects that romanticism, but there are some very interesting complexities that are used so well that the casual listener would probably never notice them - but musicians (particularly the drummers, percussionists, and bassists among us) catch them with a smile 🙂
Masato Honda is the lead alto sax soloist. He's also known for his work with T-Square. Isn't he amazing?
as a lover of cowboy bebop ( it is the first anime I ever watched) I would love to know what you think of the song "digging my potato" I honestly think it's one of the best songs in the series.
Agreed, Spokey Dokey too
Amazing song
I wish he listens to higher quality version like flac which has 700+kbps bitrate compared to youtube's 128kbps, it really does make a difference, you can hear whole lots of details
I have one an anime with a whole bunch of great songs you could check out. Its called Angel Beats!
My Soul, Your Beats is the opening, Brave Song is the ending song, My Most Precious Treasure is one of the most impactful songs in the show, and all of the songs by the in show band, Girls Dead Monster, are spectacular. Especially My Song, Crow Song, and Alchemy in particular. I hope to see you check those out.
Guts theme please 🙏😁
More more more Seatbelts (Cowboy bebop ost)
PLEASE please do more Yoko Kanno. PLEASE
I lost my shit when I saw DCI in Atlanta a month ago and BD pulled Tank out. It was so gooooood
this theme is immaculate ah!!
Would really recommend read or die (ova) and/or r.o.d. (ost).
I watched my first read or die b/c the synopsis was so stupid and weird. It is actually pretty good though.
I think you'd really enjoy Piano Black from Cowboy Bebop as well
amazing song, shows lots of the stretngths (the flexibility) of Jazz. (in my eyes, not professionally speaking, Jazz / Blues / Funk sorta has that ability to fuse with things in things like R&B (Blues Brothers sorta taking slow paced stuff like Soul Man and Riot and make it more exciting witht the electric guitar/bass etc), afro Blues and so on. It's so fun. I once had a visit-thing with a symphony and I remember sitting in the back for a practice for over an hour and doing nothing. All effort was on the violins (understandably) but then my role was just as a silly background thing nobody would notice missing (really). Like a segment in a part of a thing in the middle part of a 30 minute thing. Symphony totally lost me at that (luckily) and I've had so much more fun with jazz / r&b etc.
Once upon a time when the earth was just beginning to cool I played trumpet in a marching band. It was the junior band, and we had one number. 25 or 6 to 4.
I rescued myself by trying out for and getting a seat in the stage band where we always played inside. Always warm. Always dry.
I do love the big bands of the ‘30s and ‘40s.
Still, if it’s got a brass section I will listen to it.
Now, I’m going to listen to Tank again.
These soundtracks are littered with gold nuggets of big band and small combo scorchers. For sure checkout:
-Rush (quick loud big band chart like Tank)
-NY Rush (small group version of prev)
-Too Good To Bad (New Orleans style w/ a sousa, Bari sax solo)
-Gateway (fun 3-horn ditty with some fast trading solo sections)
-Bad Dog No Biscuit (crazy chaotic almost Ska track)
-Car 24 (almost no bassline, but great bass clarinet usage)
-Clutch (real quick Coltrane-esque arrangement with soprano sax & trumpet)
-What Planet is This? (banging funk-fusion track ala Tower of Power)
I'd kill to see a corps take this on for a full show. But alas I will settle for the snippet from Blue this year!!
you should react to all the jojo openings! there are a few jazzy songs in there ;)
I am looking forward hearing more
You should check out Paprika movie OST. They are super unique and fun
you heard any other of the cowboy bee-bop soundtrack? and if not would you consider doing a react to it?
Tenor-Sax here. The Sax section parts just sound so fun to play. Just the type of things I know I'd get elated while playing with everyone in BigBand.
I recommend checking out Lost In Paradise, it’s an ending to an anime called Jujutsu Kaisen, it’s super Jazzy.
The first time I heard "Too Good Too Bad" from "Cowboy Bebop" I immediately thought "Cool marching band tune!".
Credens justitiam or Venari strigas, from Madoka Magica's OST, by Yuki Kaijura
YES
Yoko Kanno, Joe Hisaishi, Kenji Kawai and Hyde (from l'Arc~en~Ciel band) are the anime composers I prefer.
Good choice with Cowboy Bebop. :) You can also check "wolf's rain", "vision of Escaflowne", "Macross"...
The songs from Kokia and Gakt are also very good.
I forgot the "Akira" OST by Geinoh Yamashirogumi...
Blues-inspired Jazz Funk
I subbed cause you started talkin Tumbao I wanna hear more
You should react the Jojo’s bizarre adventure openings like you did with the attack on titan openings
YES PLEASE
you've got to react to the ending theme Rain
You should react to Houseki no Kuni's Kyoumen no Nami. It's a really complex song
Also the 5 openings to Mushoku Tensei: Jobless Reincarnation. Every opening is basically the theme of the place the mc is in instead of the op to the show if that makes sense
Man you really need to react to Persona5 OST. Trust me on this one
pleas react to Made in Abyss OST - Hanezeve Caradhina (Kevin Penkin )
This is what I came to recommend. In fact the whole of the Made in Abyss score, plus contributions by Myth & Roid. One of the absolute best.
you need to react to guts theme!
Guts theme,especially recommend
Bro says hold the Salsa explanation for just an anime reaction. Go ahead with the explanation. Anime is art, the drawing and voice lines are layers like instruments in its soundtrack. This is one of my favorite songs of all time. Such energy, such dynamism, so rich
Any Lupin the 3° fans here?
We need to make this man listen to The Full Theme of Lupin of the Lupin part 4°
Is something like Cowboy Bebop opening but I Hope You never heard It before.
I recommend Avidity from the anime 86. It’s really good.
This is "The Opening" in the anime :).
Reminds me a bit of the theme song to Johnny Quest at times. Edit: Fun Fact - Johnny Quest was one of if not the first soundtracks to use synthesized music.
Space lion
Please watch the show sir, its an absolute classic, one of the greatest of all time
As a jazz saxophonist, this fucking song gets me GOING
Pls react to the argentinian band "Soda Stereo - En la ciudad de la furia" live 2007 considered the best latin pop rock band
i don't know if you had tryed it ( i don't think so) but you could try Umineko no naku koro ni opening song it's called "katayoku no tori" ( one winged bird) and is a song of the very talented artist "akiko shikata" it's in short a "modern opera" type song!
Enjoying see your excitement, while I'm doing the same listening. Played lead tenor sax in two different university big bands. Two of my roommates were snares in "Spirit" back in the late seventies and miss the analyzing of all music around us as we did. Half of the Marching Southerners (JSU) were Spirit members because it was a cheap university in Alabama we could afford to attend. I could not understand why I was attracted to the Bridgemen when their chops were not Blue Devils until a club owner where I was playing pulled me to the side and told me this. People remember half of what they hear and half of what they see, and you have the chops but suck as an entertainer, fix that. Best advise ever and now understood why the Bridgemen didn't focus on scores only, but a show to rock the house for those times. DCI does incredible stuff far beyond those days, but are missing the Bridgemen entertainment element....or am I just that old? Glad to see the Blue Devils actually playing a tune in stead of practice room riffs for 12 minutes. Enjoy the semi finals. Back to the tune you played, it was hot, tight and I could hear the trumpet line rip off a couple of Bill Chase licks. Enjoyed this and now subbed, carry on!
Spirit of JSU! Sweet. I agree with everything you wrote
React to Monogatari series ops. I wouldn't say most of them are really "amazing" compositions but they are good. Also, like the fact that the opening(visuals and lyrics) tell the story of the respective arc/character arc
