Joel you need to watch their version of Thriller and you will see horns!

Dirty Loops has just been on a quite extensive US tour.

If you like 80's music, they did a new amazing "parody" of an 80's video but with skill that's off the chart called "Run Away". Everything they do is awesome. If you like horns then definitely check out their collaboration with Cory Wong, including Thriller, Follow the Light, Turbo (instrumental), you'll get hooked. "Work Shit Out" really shows off the keyboard and especially the drums.

You want horns? They recorded a few tracks with the Wong Notes - Cory Wong's band - Specifically Turbo and Ring of Saturn, both featuring the immense talents of Kenni Holmen and Grace Kelly. Their version of Thriller, from the same set, is also stunning.

Cool to see you do Dirty Loops! Fantastic band and super talented. They should be much bigger than they are globally. World class. Do a deep dive on your own time and become a fan.

Wow, you guys have such a rabbithole to go inte once you found Dirty Loops, they fall outside musical category and embody skill, fun, and produce chills with their musicality and versatility - try their newest next if you will - "Run Away" which is a jawdropper in more ways than one - Welcome to Dirty Loops, we love it here

Saw them in Seattle this past April- They worked with David Foster first and then Quincy. Check out the collaborations with Cory Wong and the Wong Notes!

Glad that you both got to react (first and second react :) to Dirty Loops. Since discovering them a few years ago they’ve grown on me so much, it’s kinda ridiculous… And after having listened to some of their albums for countless times (now some of my most treasured possessions) there’s still new stuff turning up in my speakers all the time. Despite the easy look and straightforward structure of some of their tunes and videos, it’s also incredibly complex music, I find. Henrik, the bassist, is a monster player and musician indeed and draws a lot of attention in the way his bassplaying is presented in all of their pieces. Aron, the drummer, writes a lot of his bass lines. All three of them studied music together at a prestigious Swedish con, and both Aron and Henrik play like hand in glove, practiced for hours together, and even shared the same bass (n drums) teacher for a while. The three of them also compose their tracks together, in various combinations. It’s this whole combinations of factors, including not having a guitarist in the band, which placed Henrik into a unique situation as a bass player of Dirty Loops. Then you add his monster chops, his musical expertise and a monster sound engineer (!) and you have these bass parts which always stand out… But hey, all three of them are super musicians. David Foster was the first one to ‘discover’ them, and took them to tour the Asia Pacific regions, as well as some of Europe. Then the pandemic hit. They’ve been touring again a lot this and last year. You mentioned, Joel, that this video looks fairly simple. Yeah and this is the way with all of their music videos from this album. Apart from goofing around with some of their props, eg the number of mics pointing at a solitary small amp, or Henrik sitting in front of a ‘wall of speakers’ and so on, -also in the credits-, these videos are simple. (You should see tho their music videos from their first album ‘Loopified’ (2014). Just B&W 😉) Still, their playing will leave you dumbfounded. In a way they’re still a small, self produced trio, with some friend shooting the videos, Aron editing them, another friend mixing and engineering, etc. A very self-produced style of doing things. Loved your reaction to them, and would love to see your reaction to their track “Work Shit Out”! Thanks for showcasing this band 🙏👍

You should do their song "follow the light" for some horns in the video and "work shit out" for the crazy drums and piano playing

They just finished a US/Canada tour and Europe coming up next - I'm going to see them for the third time in November! ♥ Dirty Loops never disappoints and keep surprising you!

Incredible band, incredible song. Only trouble is, once you hear 'F*ck you' and 'Let's Scr*w', you just can't un-hear it.

Nice, fun, glad you liked it !I it always nice to see someone experiencing Dirty Loops for the first time! I do hope you continue down the path, you will be a splendid time, not least hearing more of Henrik! Don't expect it to be very much like Rock You, though. The sound is the same, but much else changes.

You want horns? Try Jonah’s solo project “Coffee Break.” Astounding.

Yes, that's crazy good! And you should listen to Jonah's version of "Bad".

and stevie wonder

In Nov 13 i see them live in Aschaffenburg / Germany........ i can t wait ........... 🙂

Michael Jackson + Dream Theater = 🥱

His voice sounds like Michael Jackson.

Fine band but old hat....everything they're doing is derivative...from vocal style (stevie wonder) to 80s jazz fusion (Spyro Gyra, Yellow Jackets, Weather Report) And bass..?? again, amazing but sounds exactly like a 2 dozen other bass players. Great band...excellent talent...excellent production...not something I would ever listen to because I would put on Weather Report, or Stevie Wonder, Or Michael Jackson. Why would I listen to a copy when I could put on the real thing?

"Obscure places like Indonesia". What's "obscure" with Indonesia? This / lack of / reaction kind of confirms my dislike for U2, even if this guy is just a marginal.player obviously.

They seem talented, but not really appealing to me. Too derivative. I’ll stick with Snarky Puppy - better musicians and more creative.

I just love to see someone experiencing Dirty Loops for the first time. They started the group as a hobby project in 2008, and never thought it would be anything other than that, and did twisted jazz fusion covers of top 40 pop songs. In 2010 they put up a video on youtube (a cover of Lady Gaga's "Just Dance"), as a booking reference, to see if they could get a gig or two, just for fun, as they thought their music was way too unsexy for anyone to actually like it. Needless to say, they were completely wrong. The video went viral and a LOT of people absolutely loved it. They weren't discovered by Quincy Jones though, and he didn't become their manager until the release of the "Phoenix" EP, which this song is from. For their debut album "Loopified", which was released in 2014, they worked with David Foster, as @fiddlestix3025 pointed out, and the one putting them in contact with him was their first manager, Andreas Carlsson. Just about everything they've ever released is of this ridiculous musical quality, so you could pretty much pick any song to listen to, and you more than likely would not be disappointed. My personal favourite is one of their more jazz fusion-y pieces, "Work Shit Out". They've all known each other and played together for 20+ years by now, in their late thirties. Jonah Nilsson (keyboard/vocals) and Henrik Linder (bass) even went to music elementary school together and met when Henrik was 11 and Jonah was 9. Aron Mellergård (drums) comes from another part of Sweden and came along when he moved to Stockholm at the age of 16, to attend the same music high school as they did (he was in the year between the other two). Then they all attended Kungliga Musikhögskolan (Royal College of Music) in Stockholm, where Henrik and Aron studied jazz/rock, and Jonah opted for music production as his main subject.
