    Really makes you wonder what colabs we may have had back in the day if it were always as simple as some texts and files sent over email...

      george clinton and the p-funk era were sending cassettes back and forth, each "peeing on it." it is definitely faster now, tho, the process, so long as the focus is on point. cheers!

    This very much feels like a Snarky Puppy tune, especially the horns. Awesome as always :)

      Check out the band "New Sound Underground." Kevin played keys in that group as well, and it's definitely inspired by/in the vein of Snarky Puppy. Damn I miss seeing them rip it up around Mpls in the 2010s.

    "Louis Cole is a singular voice on the instrument of the drums, and music in general, of our generation ... a one of a kind musician!" Absofuckinglutely! Truer words were never spoken.

    I have only recently recovered from my addiction of listening to this 500x/day by locking myself in a sensory deprivation chamber. I emerge, this comes out, and the earworm returns.
    Thanks for a great breakdown of an awesome track.

    Thank you for breaking down your creative process and revealing the birth of this tune 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻!!! The first time I heard it, it seemed obvious to me that it was a piece to enhance the horns section, and now your video shows us how well they are complemented by the other instruments. It’s the kind of tune that seems very “thick, massive” at first, then the more you listen to it, the more you pay attention to the details, and the more you like it, and now here comes your video to finally shed light on everything. Very good and complete composition 🎼🎵🎶 pumped up by a lot of energy 🔥💥⚡ with epic collabs 🎸🎷🎺🥁🎹🎸!!! Great job, Mr. Cory Wong 💓☮✌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 !!!

    I’ve been binging this song for the last month and to find a half hour breakdown is so exciting. That vibrato at the end of the Moog line has always stood out to me in the final mix, adds so much.

  • @lennertgesterkamp7097

    Truly one of my most favorite songs, perfect drums, perfect guitar solo, perfect horns, perfect bass, perfect melody, and it always makes me feel great, no matter what time of the day. I have no idea about Cory's idea behind the title, but for me it is the theme song of the times we live in, the grid generation

    One of my favorite picks from the album next to Acceptance and Brooklyn Bop, Michael Nelson has written such a killing horn section and somehow, Louis was able to keep everything so tight and precise!😆 Hopefully Acceptance is next😍😊

    First time I heard that drum groove without knowing who it was I was like "man, Cory Wong should bring Louis Cole for something like this" and when I see the song name and feature I felt very silly. It was obviously LC and his unique thing. Would love to see LC and CW live together.

    Cory, many thanks, what really impressed me is your clear explanations about your editing decisions - 'this is what I did, it felt right, moving on...'
