Watched this a TON of times and this is what 'gets me' about this video. The music is PERFECTLY balanced and mixed but, I see the video wobbling and shaking with the bass lines and hits. It is live and has errors in the visuals. This is why I come back week after week. Great and powerful rendition. Additionally. Kebu appears 'in the grove' and if you have ever been there you know what I mean. He takes what Jan Hammer laid out as an outline and forces it to the next level. His mod wheel work and idiomatic playing of the guitar riffs were amazing. Keep in mind this WAS om 2012! Great work! Keep it up! BY THE THIS IS AN EDIT.... The fact that he plays this WHOLE thing 'off the cuff' and live.... he adds to my wish to something as amazing as this. Sequences are GREAT but, his level of play skill is off the charts.

Watching/listening to in 2024! This is great.

Miami Vice, Literally a series that was ahead of it's time. What an era. The nostalgia is real man. Been re-watching the entire series these past months, and what a time. Don't think any show can come close too it these days. Sad that the era, is long past. Iconic storyline, themes, instrumentals, characters and so much more. Legendary. Espically with Jan Hammer, and how he nailed it. So glad he got massive credits for the theme, and got chosen for it.

Что в 89 году, когда я услышал эти мелодии, это был шедевр, что в 2023 это пушка!

This guy is a synth genius but the Jan Hammer original had so much feeling and was also technically totally original. That’s a true musical genius.

My god… this is sheer brilliance… unbelievable

Now there's a man who loves what he does. And his synthesizers! Love and respect, I'm a big fan, thank you for many years of great music!

A Geek, a fortress of synths and pure fucking passion. That's how you do Electronic Music.

Måste bara tillägga att jag lyssnade på liknande musik i bilen som ung och hade oftare gasen i bottenläget än vad som kan rekommenderas! Retfullt eller tur så gick min bil bara någon km under 200 kr/h men den var trots det snabbare än den då så populära Audi Quattro! Hur många har klarat av att köra ca 150 på asfalt i mörkret för att sedan flyga uppåt 100 m och landa i början av en skarp kurva där framdäcken gled rakt fram tills jag tryckte gasen i botten så att det blev fyra svarta spår genom hela kurvorna ända ut till gruskanten? Garanterat något som jag inte skulle kunna idag och så krävs det rätt sorts bil dessutom! Men jag har många fina minnen från en hel del som jag har varit med om till just liknande musik på mer än högsta volym...

What a legend. He just captured the whole 80's in one track ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I love when musicians is totally IN their music.

The '80's movies, the music never dies, the genre is picked up and rediscovered for the generation coming forth. It's that good, you can't fight it, give in to the spine-tingling sound.

I could listen to this 24/7! He’s incredible ❤

This Jan Hammer cover is way better than the original, took this simple theme to higher grounds and new musical worlds while at same time sending any 80s teen back to a skin-burned memory of crocket driving in his car during the famous episode . Way to go Kebu, what a monster performance.

2:47 You know the bass is JUICY AF when even cameras capture it.

How I miss this era of music!! Proper music!! So many memories of my youth, love it!!

2023 best Performance ever... from Crockets Theme 😍

I love this song Kebu!!! Please come to America and do some shows! We love you here!!!

He's not afraid to let a synth sound like a synth...love it

I thought the likes of Jean Michel Jarre never existed anymore. Still alive in this guy. Awesome.

Fantastic..takes me back 😂😂❤❤🙏🎵🎵🎵😎👍 what a set up

April 2024, still watching Miami Vice, still listening Kebu playing 12 on keyboards in one track. And I love it =)

Wow, so many keyboards and hundreds of keys and dozens of buttons! How can this legend manage to recreate this awesome tune live with it's own catchy twisted version of it. He's a musical wizard!

This is what made me a Kebu fan. This man is paying the ultimate respect to the masters. What a brilliant artist, Kebu, brings it live.

Keep coming back to this video, it's just so friggin awesome!

Genialne. Ten występ ma 10 lat a ja nadal to uwielbiam 🥰🥰🥰

Crocketts Theme is a real Masterpiece of Jan Hammer. I heard the original already hundred and hundred of times. Its the most timeless Track I ever heard. ANd i will hear it hundred and hundred times in future until I die. As I was young (Born 1977) i played Organ/Keyboard and bought the Scores of this Song und cwas able to play this thing in sleep.

Very cool to be the creator of a piece that’s now essentially timeless, loved it when first released, never stopped liking it. If anything seems to age pretty damn well

I thought it 7 years ago, and I still think it...this is the best version of this track in existence, period.

Fantastic performance of a great theme song! Loved the way he played both keyboards at once and behind his back. Remarkable. How can anyone not like this? I guess they don't get it or it's over their heads.

Well as a 1990's FM radio DJ, I think I can answer that! The first thing to note is that the term "DJ" covers a wide spectrum of talent ranges and sophistication. So... : ------------------------------------ A) HIGH LEVEL DJ's In live radio, some of them have a team of lower level DJ's to serve them! But at other types of live events (concerts, raves, etc...), these DJ's are actually artists, much like Jazz musicians that just go with the flow, and feels the vibes of the crowd and music, and carefully operates complex equipment to mirror/vibe with the audience's energy, and transition between beats/tunes seamlessly. And sure some of those transitions are pre-planned, but a lot of them are just spur of the moment music transitions, reactions, and effects bouncing off the audience energy. DJ's at this level ALWAYS operate/adjust very complex-equipment live (equipment that would take you a couple of years to learn!) through pretty complex setttings and setups for varying venues. ------------------------------------ EXAMPLE NOTE: Here's an example of a true-live-DJ artist at work: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hoZ3s8-HfbLXhbw.htmlsi=U9XXOioq2uT5viUw Jan Hammer doing his rendition of the early 1980's Miami Vice "Crockett's theme" and it's... it's... ya: pretty awesome and mind blowing! This guy is definitely burning a few extra calories and brain cells trying to make this work live! His equipment also contains multi-high-data streaming services to a central switch, requiring some unifying networking equipment that would be the equivalent of an entire floor of a medium or large sized corporation! PS: If I'm not mistaken and remembering correctly (when I met him once) I think this guy has either a Master's or PhD in Biochemistry! In my opinion: you can certainly seem him using his extra brain processing power to do his shows. ------------------------------------ B) LOWER LEVEL DJ's Then we get to "lower level newbie" DJ's! Nothing wrong with that: we're all newbies at everything at some time or another! But ya, they "simply" go through their record library, or the stations' music library, and pick out a set of songs that is given to them on a list by someone else. (Not such a simple task because it requires you to know and "feel" multiple multiple many genres of music.) While doing so, if they're any good at this stage, they will pick out some alternate substitions on the list, and suggest it to the main-DJ or broadcaster, but not overwhelm the main-DJ, so they know how to do so, or not do so, depending upon how busy (or irritated!) the main-DJ appears to be during a live broadcast. They also do HUGE amounts of radio live broadcast, or party broadcast control board handling for others, including even in the case of FM broadcasts, manning the phones and incoming calls, and filtering/passing on relevant messages to the main DJ.

Dude... this is probably one of the best live synth performances i've seen...

Keep coming back to this every couple of weeks or so, reminds me of the 80's
