Still honestly think this track is standalone incredible. Even on this monster of an album, it seems unique and organic. Its pulsing start is captivating, and leads you into something unforgettable.
Yeah, and was an unreachable model of the fusion of black and white music. Why? Black feeling and expression dominates! Miles´ musical authority to make a band explosing while repeating a handful of pitches is unique. For me one of the most impressive recordings ever. I`am a fan for 40 years.
"Pharaoh's Dance" contains 19 edits - its famous stop-start opening is entirely constructed in the studio, using repeat loops of certain sections. Later on in the track there are several micro-edits: for example, a one-second-long fragment that first appears at 8:39 is repeated five times between 8:54 and 8:59. The title track contains 15 edits, again with several short tape loops of, in this case, five seconds (at 3:01, 3:07 and 3:12). Therefore, Bitches Brew not only became a controversial classic of musical innovation, it also became renowned for its pioneering use of studio technology.
Spot on. The producer, Teo Macero, is intimately involved in the creative process. Apparently Miles gave him free reign. This was already happening on In A Silent Way.
everyone has their favorite moment of this song...mine is late, the repeated riff on the trumpet that's introduced with just the single bass note played over and over...i don't know...the last 5 or 6 minutes are my favorite music bits of all time...
@@SuperSoulsaver YES! When it simmers down and then Miles plays yet another (though quieter) variety of that riff I imagine that all eyes in the room are on him, waiting for more instruction....THAT is truly a gorgeous stanza! It has often brought my eyes to well up with tears at how beautiful it is.
Does jazz as psychedelic and wild as this exist anywhere else? I seriously can't think of another album like this. The notes linger and pulse in this kind of sea of sound, always free and organic but always tight and groovy.
+J. Deiss No. This didn't exist... (and of course it did) Some few endeavored to keep the idea. They only got close. After it was over it didn't exist anymore. I do feel lucky that some of it was recorded.
+Sage Llivokin I was lucky enough to catch Sun Ra once in a fairly small venue. Used to have many of his albums. Friend of mine used to jam with Sun Ra and the Arkestra in Philadelphia.
First time I heard this album, it blew my mind. I had no idea music like this existed. I was 16 in the early 90s and had just started getting into jazz after I heard the Miles/Cannonball Adderley rendition of Autumn Leaves on the radio. I'd heard jazz before, but never really listened until then. That song also blew my mind. I went out and bought a Miles cassette that was something like Miles Davis The Capital Years I think, a compilation of mid to late 50s stuff. I liked it so much, I decided to buy another and got Bitches Brew based on the album art. It was a life changing experience. Totally changed my perception of what music is. This track in particular had a huge impact on me. I didn't even know what a bass clarinet was. I literally didn't know the names of the instruments being played. But I knew I was listening to music that came from a deep place I didn't know existed. Before that, I thought Jimmy Page was the GOAT. Lol
So many people from the rock crowd claim that this is boring and overrated. Are you okay? Very few rock bands were interesting, most are just banal. This music explores new dimensions and makes you see images, you must be soulless if you think this is boring!
This is a Zawinal, Miles Davis masterpiece! Classic. It builds up and up to an amazing groove and call n response improvisation. I always loved Bennie Maupins bass clarinet hauntingly Beautiful and creepy at the same time. Brilliant bitchen brew
This is my all time favorite Miles song, and I've listened to probably 75% of his pantheon of musical genius. There's just something that perfectly embodies a place he took Jazz that no one else could go .. I've listened to this song perhaps 300 times and it never even remotely gets old.
I would say it starts with Miles' riff right around 8:30 ..... but I agree with you, it is a fantastic-atonal roller coaster for about four or five minutes there
@@adamcraneguilford6236 I have to agree with you, man. The magic, at least for me, really started at around 8:30 or so, then starts really going hard again at around 12:00 Wow. Just wow. Poetry without words.
I was listening to this record a few nights ago, while I was on a night-time coach. The coach got lost and I fell asleep. It was the weirdest experience ever.
This album is essential if you have an ear for music. Masterful sounds . Masterpiece album. The trumpet sounds my god. Everything about this album could only come from a musical genius. The last 5 mins on a bit of volume enough said.
I think one of my favorite parts of this song is the intro. The opening is some of the best tension building I've ever heard in a song and really sets the entire song and it's bizzare world. Another part is probably towards the end when for a brief period it slows down and all we are hearing is the slow build up to an epic conclusion. Can't get enough of this album, it's too different which is amazing.
starting with Miles' riff right around 8:30 ..... it is a fantastic-atonal roller coaster from there, it takes a while to get a trane like this rolling
Adam Crane Guilford yeah man. it gets really smooth and mysterious right on that minute and then suddenly it exploooooooooodes at 9:00. Blew my fucking mind.
This to me always felt like Miles Davis plays Stravinsky ...with a little Afro Cuban thrown in the mix! ...always loved it! ...but could never find many to jump into this great music.
Oh man haha I think you nailed it 👌 I so wanted to say how this kinda' reminded me of "The Rite of Spring" specifically, but well... you know how judgemental some aficionados can be xD
This is the most out there Jazz I've ever heard and I've loved this album for a lot of years. It's definitely still musical but it eludes a key or even a scale I can cling onto. The musicality to make this surpasses most listeners and It was a bold move to release this. It could not have happened anytime other than the 60's. The great thing about Acid in the 60s is it made people re-eavulate where the boundaries were? As it stands today this is a masterpiece of how far out it's possible to go and still be consumable as music. Genius. Luv and Peace.
The Beatles and the Grateful Dead get a lion’s share of the credit for making long lasting “psychedelic” music. Because this isn’t considered rock and roll, I don’t think it gets the credit it deserves. This is one of the most cerebral pieces of music ever conceived. This isn’t just a song, it’s a paradigm shift.
if you really dont have a damn idea why is this tune is called Pharaoh's dance, wait until you get to the end. at around 15:20 is a stop-start phrase. then Miles, like a damn pharoah orders all his slaves to start again, and keep going. the very ending pharse with all the notes of it is heard here, but in a really fragmented way. the piano players have their time to show off, improvise and all that shit. the band in the background rearrange once again, and all of a sudden, Miles comes in. like a pharoah. the band keeps going, and he just blows those eerie, out-of-this-world melody, which you cant forget once yue've heard. and he kepps it dancing, and makes you dancing too. he is the pharoah, and the band are his slaves, and we are his slaves too, listening to his dancing. this track and also the album is a masterpiece. if you get into mit, you'll never get out of it. it haunts you, it follows you, till the end of the time. fuck, i have to roll an another joint and play it again.
I feel the apotheosis of experiencing the inner dimensions of matter and thought as a free-flowing stream of consciousness travels through the endless abyss, displaced and together. Unity and love. Freedom and possibilities.
I fell asleep listening to this a while back. I got transported to Sarajevo in the midst of snipers. When Mile's riff kicks in at 8:30 and explodes at 9:00, I saw the most barbaric things..dissection of babies, savagery of a different kind by unknown tribes. I remember jolting up and the music playing. I had never heard of the Snipers of Sarajevo. I googled immediately thinking this must mean something. To my utter disbelief, this was a real thing in the Bosnian civil war. Incredible. Just wondering how music does that...This album is pure psychedelics..Miles was definitely on a different wavelength than mere mortals.
i'm sure Miles' ancestors were from the akan tribe,and elvin jones looks exactly like my uncle.Coltrane's face was mandinka but his music sounded more like yoriba style.Miles 'face and character were totally akan ,and his style of music is 500% akan.
I love this cut. It hasn't lost its impact on me since I bought the record in 1971. It's chaotic, seemingly out of control but brilliant especially the last six or so minutes.
Like most Jazz, to the Rock ear, it must be heard over many listens to realize the many nuances in the individual playing and the counter play of the musicians. This song in particular builds and builds into an amazing crescendo and then slips back into its original roots.
THANKS MASTER MILES FOR GUIDING ME WHEN I WAS LOST AND FULL OF DOUBTS: This is recorded in 432 hz i checked E natural harmonics on my 68' acoustic guitar (Martin D35).......this is the main reason while i choose to record my music in 432 hz over 440 hz.....cause 4 some reason Miles & friends did it here
if you love Miles' music, I highly recommend you read his Autobiography. A very unique book & it gives a lot of insight into all his music, successes and struggles. In the end you realize that Miles, despite being elusive and saying few words in interviews, was very introspective & perceptive. The book is also *very* funny. Just be prepared for an onslaught of the word m****f**** LOL
I would love to read his autobiography 😁 What is the specific title of the Miles Davis autobiography that you speak of? I'm certain that their are several different ones. I am a huge fan of Miles Davis. HAPPY HOLIDAYS 🎄🎁🙏🏼
And if you're ready to take a deep dive, Ian Carr's bio of Miles is definitive -- gave me a whole new understanding of his music, technically and otherwise.
Setting about the tempo of this piece certainly seems like a precursor to hardcore punk. Also I had no idea this is where the sample for sour grapes by Billy Woods came from.
There's nothing in this album that isn't ahead of the game. But I'd never complain about the older stuff and quite liked the stuff after this. Even the "On the Corner".
On the Corner is a fantastic album that inspired other genres as well. Heck, it even inspired freakin' post-punk which is one of my favorite genres of punk music.
Celebrating the life of Miles Davis on his birthday! We love this track, so we featured it in our blog: dailyhitofmusic.blogspot.com/2020/05/miles-davis.html
Imagine an alternate universe where all music is done through pianos and vocals and no other instruments exist other than maybe synths. A space ship sent to collect meteor bits returns with a small golden device that stores this on a disk that can only be played on another device found in the golden machine. When played we find it's this album. No explanation or ideas to what it could mean. That's how I think of this album when I listen to it anyways. I mean the noises on it are made from human devises but overall it's just so... Alien. It's almost disturbing.
What the heck kind of theory went into this? I really would be interested in knowing if there's any method to their madness or if it's purely freeflowing improvisation with a few composed sections.
People say they can hear Bitches 'brewing' in In a Silent Way and preceding records but I don't believe it, even with complete hindsight. This record was a Cruise missile into the establishment and orthodoxy. Shock and Awe, absolutely breathtaking.
The ominous approach of the impending horizon; binary duality dissolves into absurd conundrums blending each sense, perceiving no disparity between the enigmatic forms of gnosis revealed in plumes of dreamscape sound which capture eternal mysteries' apotheosis and the bizarre illimitable rapture of riffs revolving round symbols transcending all earthly knowledge. Awesome cosmic dance that speaks of numinous life, never ending wondrous firmament, induce this trance to contemplate its facets' endless bliss, the absolute and fathomless abyss.
Still honestly think this track is standalone incredible. Even on this monster of an album, it seems unique and organic. Its pulsing start is captivating, and leads you into something unforgettable.
I agree 1000000%! Haha
I guess I've never heard something as heavy and intense as what is recorded in this track

The closing is transcendent.
One of the greatest jazz fusion/jazz rock pieces ever made in history, from one of my all time favorite jazz albums.
Most anyone with ears can agree
And this recording birthed Weather Report, Return To Forever and the Mahavisnu Orchestra!
and head hunters. and spectrum. just to name a few more. this album was so influential.
Yeah, and was an unreachable model of the fusion of black and white music. Why? Black feeling and expression dominates! Miles´ musical authority to make a band explosing while repeating a handful of pitches is unique. For me one of the most impressive recordings ever. I`am a fan for 40 years.

Spot on. The producer, Teo Macero, is intimately involved in the creative process. Apparently Miles gave him free reign. This was already happening on In A Silent Way.
A true brew
Miles famously edited his music throughout his career, it didn't start with this one.
🥇
He (& Teo) used the studio -- and the edit machine -- as another instrument. Always 💡 innovating, always searching...
This song gives me chills- like the jazz equivalent of Stravinsky’s “The Rite of Spring”.
That's a great analogy -- with those 2 pieces, Stravinsky and Miles changed music forever.
Yeah! Great! Two of the greatest creations in music of the human kind.
EXACTLY!!!
Hell yes.
Well said!
This music is absolute love; no condom.
+Erich Bouccan good + dirty observation
Best comment I've read on UA-cam ever.
You have my eternal respect.
Luv and Peace.
Erich Bouccan wow, no condoms! That’s crazy. It’s a great album.
whats with you horny ass boomers, not everything is sexual you dirty fucks
I'm going in raw 😎
Ti ti ti ti ti ti ti ba dum ba dum ba da dum ba da ba dum.... That intro was amazing
I always loose it at 0:37
Biriri biri riri bi bom bom bi bom
This has always reminded me of if aliens attempted to make music with human instruments
Nah man. Aliens would suck on human instruments, what with tentacles and no mouths or hands and stuff like that.
everyone has their favorite moment of this song...mine is late, the repeated riff on the trumpet that's introduced with just the single bass note played over and over...i don't know...the last 5 or 6 minutes are my favorite music bits of all time...
and when it simmers down for a second and it repeats again slowly it's Miles telling you who is boss.
Yeah me too! That is Zawinull composition
I hear you
Cool! The entrance of the soprano is also breathtaking.
@@SuperSoulsaver YES!

Capitol Years, and then this? What a leap. I listening to Filles de Kilimanjaro and In a Silent Way first.
From 16:38 until the end of the tune is just incredible to me.

Corea and Zawinul are probably the most underrated perfomers of that session but clearly the most genius.

Ground breaking album
Like most Jazz, to the Rock ear, it must be heard over many listens to realize the many nuances in the individual playing and the counter play of the musicians. This song in particular builds and builds into an amazing crescendo and then slips back into its original roots.
Depends on what rock the rocker listens to. Alot of old hardcore screamo has jazz influence. The Swing Kids, Hot Cross, Usurp Synapse,
the musical definition of art
What a song!!!!!!

A work of genius. Love the intro!

some people believe 432 hz is aligned with the human body mind and soul my friend :)
Where did you get that information from? Miles tuning here to 432? that I hadn't heard before....

A space ship sent to collect meteor bits returns with a small golden device that stores this on a disk that can only be played on another device found in the golden machine. When played we find it's this album. No explanation or ideas to what it could mean. That's how I think of this album when I listen to it anyways. I mean the noises on it are made from human devises but overall it's just so... Alien. It's almost disturbing.
What the heck kind of theory went into this? I really would be interested in knowing if there's any method to their madness or if it's purely freeflowing improvisation with a few composed sections.
i can´t be the only one who gets a feeling of similarity between this and "la fiesta" in stan getz´s captain marvel right? awesome

People say they can hear Bitches 'brewing' in In a Silent Way and preceding records but I don't believe it, even with complete hindsight. This record was a Cruise missile into the establishment and orthodoxy. Shock and Awe, absolutely breathtaking.

The ominous approach of the impending horizon; binary duality dissolves into absurd conundrums blending each sense, perceiving no disparity between the enigmatic forms of gnosis revealed in plumes of dreamscape sound which capture eternal mysteries' apotheosis and the bizarre illimitable rapture of riffs revolving round symbols transcending all earthly knowledge. Awesome cosmic dance that speaks of numinous life, never ending wondrous firmament, induce this trance to contemplate its facets' endless bliss, the absolute and fathomless abyss.
You would've been a great beatnik.

Sounds like you are standing there sweating while a female panther is rubbing up against you.
