It's so cool to have someone I respect like Greg Phillinganes articulates the same feelings I have for Jacob's mastery of music.

I'm not a musician but this is one of the most inspiring cross-generational conversations between artists I've ever seen.

When Greg Philliganes tries to practice your song, you've made it :}

Well said!! I'll also add that when Jacob Collier tries to learn your arrangement of 'Happy Birthday', you know you're a legend!! :-) One of the best KZread videos I've seen in a long time. Two out-of-this-world musicians. So inspiring.

2 utter legends here in terms of musical skill and positive spirit. Jacob's CPU is off the charts and Greg has such fantastic chops and a beautiful soul. Bless you both x

Jacob always makes you remember how fun life is and how exciting the mysteries are

He reminds us all to activate that joy in our lives.

You know you’ve made it when Greg Phillinganes calls you “Bro”

I love hearing Jacob on the Harpejji…that instrument plus his arrangements…heaven.

My two favourite people in the world.

This was a sheer joy to watch. This is rare indeed a casual conversation with geniuses. I felt like a Fly on the wall taking it all in. And he's right.Jacob is from another planet.

Awesome stream. Very rare I sit through an hour video on KZread. Two great humans

This brought me so much joy. Thank you Jacob and Greg.

It's an honor to have Great Keyboardist of Michael Jackson's Tours a long time, Congrats Jacob!

Two of my favorite musicians at the same time!! They are both talented (immensely), intelligent, pleasant, joy-filled, and FUN!!! Thanks for posting - greatly enjoyed the exchange.

Watching these two greats geek out for an hour was one of the most enjoyable and entertaining experiences I’ve had in a long time 🔥

This is so delightful. Music, joy, and camaraderie!

Just the fact that you can listen to artists having these intricate conversations is crazy

Thank you so much for sharing this very pleasant conversation between two true musicians. (from Montréal, Canada)

Jacob Collier est mon IDOLE. je le 'suis' depuis 6 ans maintenant. J'ai assisté à tous ses shows à Montréal... Une véritable expérience spirituelle à chaque fois!

“Harmonic Painting” (mixing note by note) 18:25 “The Higher the Resolution is of My Understanding” (Questions asked and answered, repeatedly, with greater and greater depth and granularity while maintaining great Patience for the journey all in service of loving/respecting the music adequately) 18:36 - 19:29

What a trip watching this.. mutual respect between a legend and a legend in the making..

Witnessing first-hand the genius mind of Jacob. So much in that brain or soul or whatever it is.

Man I wish I had perfect pitch, not that it would necessarily make me a good musician but after watching this stream and the one with Charlie Puth--it is crazy how they communicate ideas so effortlessly

@@jasonruffjr3107 its not possible to just learn it over a certain age, there have been many studies that find this, you are probably training memory of notes, which lets you remember notes, which is different to perfect pitch, as you are trying to recall notes from memory rather than just instantly knowing what it is

@@FinlayPacks do you think it's like this... You learn letters and numbers as a kid for example ABC123. You instantly know what these are when you see them written down. People with perfect pitch thus instantly know what it is juts by hearing it in isolation (not its relationship to another note you just heard which is relative pitch)

You are correct I do recall about 9 notes from memory, the other 3 (f sharp, b, b flat) instantly but memorizing is the first step to pure reaction. I know the studies that you are talking about and they don't scare me. Chances are is that they took a few people (without pp) and played notes on the piano told them what those notes were and over months and months of practice they probably got better at recalling the notes from memory but never succeeded however what I will be doing is that but 24/7 with an app that I am currently creating.

Would love to know anything you can mention- the more the better! for me personally, i've been working on 'true pitch' stuff (associating the timbre of an acoustic instrument with the 'vowel-ness' of each pitch), as well as unlocking chords and diads. cheers! jeff

These are so fun to watch 😊

I have no idea about the music theory these two geniuses are talking about, but I just can't stop smiling and I feel better at listening already.

Wowwwww.... what an amazing discussion to witness!!!!

“Cross Terrain Modulation” 🤩 Is he developing new terms to articulate what he is doing?? He's explaining his use of half sharps. 🤩

My favourite live ever

thank you again for posting these!

The tag team that might just make my head explode. I've found this and I just can't watch it right now. I have to get into the head space where I can absorb what I know I'm about to hear. Will get back to this later today for sure.

46:43 This is the method that Prince would use in order to get his to sound like it's speeded up. Ex: DANCE 4 ME, PARTYMAN, IF I WAS YOUR GIRLFRIEND, HOUSEQUAKE, FUNK, etc. Whenever Prince would record songs like that using anaolg, he would record the instruments at regular speed. Then he would slow the track down and record the vocals. When he would take the track back to it's normal speed, his would voice would sound like it was speeded up a bit. He would apply the same method when he recorded songs like FUNKNROLL when using digital devices.

Wonderful

Greg, fuckin, Philliganes. When he compliments your music you know you've made it. The man has been involved with titans of the music industry.

Epic. The whole thing.

8:30 isn’t even a computer glitch it’s just Jacob being Jacob

Great chemistry here.

LOOOVE IT!!!

Jacob and Louis Cole! Love Greg!

Watching this with my simple little brain just got even more mind-blowing when I realized the video is a mirror image of reality, super confusing when the hands are opposite way around to what I'm expecting!

By about 33 minutes I was literally laughing so much my eyes were getting wet

Let me know when someone does the happy birthday cover of greg's arragement

hey thats the keboard guy from last train home

never mind Patience: the LOVE for music & CARE for humanity (because That's what it comes down to) it takes to mix music for everyone's enjoyment, so that time isn't a factor! 🤯

That Gospel band keys stank face came out at 44.00 lol!

A sane man trying to comprehend Insanity. xD

Can anybody let me know what the technique at 33:26 is? Is it an arpeggio or is it called something else? Will appreciate the help :)

I have socks older than you

51:23 when Jacob's eyebrow goes south like that, you've piqued his interest. I remember when Greg was the Jacob Collier of his day. in fact, when greg worked with stevie he was about as old as JC is here. Stevie would yell at greg about his never-ending re-harmonizing in the studio. lol

14:00 Baer Baer Baer!

There’s a musical revolution afoot and JC is leading the charge!

I'd love to see a similar meet-up with Donald Fagen.

Game recognises game...

44:22 I'd like to have that kind of "wrong idea"...😄

was very odd seeing the piano the wrong way around.. i felt dizzy..

38:43 Funny scream! LOL. Bamboo Alto Flute with a Saxophone reed on it.

25:50 Intuitive Palette.

And there we have it. Jacob has nothing else to prove. This video is proof.

If you don‘t understand shit but you find it interesting, then you call it fascinating right?

i wonder: does he actually feel the gaines?

It didn´t look like Jacob has the same feel like Greg for music as he actually appears to be in his music and Greg fell for this wrong guy. Sorry Greg but there are a lot of real musicians to blend with easily out there. Jacob is just a confused and fake musician with his computed music. And last but no least i have been a pianist for years up till now and it is not wrong to play multiple of instruments but it can bring you down if you will not try to master as at least as one instrument. Jacob is just the wrong example and blending all and everything into each other which is just not music but is just some hobby and knowing and pretending he doesn´t know that. But Greg you surprised me even more with true skills and God bless you.

First, something must be wrong with your ears or you didn´t listen properly to this conversation. Second...who are you to judge these top world class musicians? Jealous? Your name doesn´t seem to be known in the music industry at all....so Jacob somehow must have got a lot more knowledge of music than you have and seems to be very successful with it. So please improve your knowledge of music before judging other musicians...by the way I recommend Master Classes at several universities worldwide which are given by Jacob. Little examples you will find on KZread!
