Animals As Leaders - Para Mexer, Aura Spectrum DI Performance (Tosin Abasi & Javier Reyes) Part 2 

Perfect song for beginners.

Javier: Master of every guitar technique that exists. Tosin: Master of every guitar technique that DOESN'T exist.

Tosin's playing is awesome, but Javier owned the song

It’s crazy how you can hear javier’s technical experience with classical guitar. His tone is incredible and his dexterity and ability to limit string noise is blowing me away!

Javier's beard is fantastic.

Javier is criminally underrated. His playing is flawless and his technique is so tight and effortless.

I feel like this song is so severely underrated for the live setlist

1:53 Virgin Tosin vs Chad Javier with the picking style lmao

Wouldn’t it be great if AAL did an all acoustic album or EP at some point?

Javier is so bad ass

Oof, Javier is putting on a show here. I'm going to be watching this one for years.

Javier's technique is insane

I love how this song just sounds weird the first time you listen to it then you realize just how unbelievably good it is after a few more listens

I absolutely love Javier's latin influence in AAL.

OMG, they still can djenting with classical guitar

They're quite a team.

Great warm up before smoke on the water

Animals as leaders reminds us that in the chaos and trial that is life, there is always beauty to behold.

2:37 my favorite part

I'll slap my nan for every day that passes without an Apeirophobia playthrough

Seeing Tosin playing a classical guitar really puts things in perspective as far as his style/influences go.

The way Javier flicks those fingers while playing some chords, beautiful!

Is this even legal?

ESP: PLEASE release to the marketplace the 7 string that Javier is playing in this video.

JAVIER FLEXIN' ON US

A beautiful Dual the two together make. Pushing and inspiring one another while opening the windows for us all to watch. \m/

Amazing ...is Javier’s beard.

Pretty good, I’m not a fan of the vocals though

Djamenco = Djent + Flamenco

God, the nylon strings lend themselves so well to this song.

I was waiting for that outro... It is so beautiful! :-)

This is on the level of some genius classical music. Unbelievable.

This is the most I ever enjoyed animals as leaders 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I saw Javier perform for his project Mestis in Montreal some 5 years ago, no words.

best outro in the history of music.

2:21 My favorite phrase in the entire song

This song is really underappreciated.

SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL

Amazing🥴 my favorite animals song ever, and perhaps my favorite song ever!

I don’t think I have ever seen both Javier and tosin play acoustic together. Always a treat to watch you guys play.

MASTERPIECE

I really love Tosin, but Javier is a badass guitarist as well and constantly overlooked.

1:08 That´s what I call feel the music

This is superb.love this band man...... but damn that added solo was just right and fit nicely .love this arrangement

So so good on those guitars.

Oops, I almost forgot to watch this today.

Those are some gorgeous acoustic guitars

Javier sounds sooo clean. It's just absurd!

This is ridiculously good

One of the best songs on the joy of motion

Javier is so good!

It's music like this that makes me never want to learn guitar. I never want to lose the magic of listening to something this amazing. Once you know the magician's secrets, the magic goes away and is replaced by technique, that is something I would never dream of doing to myself because of music like this. Makes me want to cry. Amazing work.

Two brothers performing i love it!

I will try to play it by watching a lot of cover versions and by using my ears 🎸🔥.

Gorgeous guitars, playing on point: good job Animals!

absolutely beatuiful

Sounds magic!!

javier is crazy good

Javier's style is something i have always preferred just my opinion. Dont hate

I usually go to polyphia playing God then come here to finish off.

That outro brings us somewhere everytime

genuinely such a beautiful song

Tosin: [ I'm Chillin' ][ I'm Trying Hard ] Javier: [ I'm Chillin' ]

Love seeing Tosin play classical guitar don't want to miss out on any videos

It always seemed to me that this band is interesting musician personal collision: Javier obviously is a classical-taught guitar player who later started playing metal music - not talking crap about Javier - he probably needed to learn how to play that sort of music because he's more about traditional jazz guit playin and Tosin has more punk/rock influences first playing Nirvana and stuff then switching to shredding and only years later joining Berkeley-school to discover all the music theory territory. Well in the end both of them came to one point but which is curious from totally opposite directions, almost diametrical.

What a Beautiful song.

I am in love with these guys.

This is the best song ever.

Always love seeing an esp Ltd being played. I never knew they had a classical 7 string that's pretty dope

I love Fishman piezo pickups, my acoustic Ibanez came equipped with Fishman this is the best sounding guitar that I ever heard! Big bows to the engineers, great work! Keep on doing what you are doing

Deftones' Steph Carpenter: 😐 *goes back to 6 string* 😂😂😂 Also can't ignore the insane talent of Matt on drums on this song. 👏

Reyes y Abasi as leaders!!!!

Yeah is that the nicest beard of all time?

I am looking at real masters of their profession here aren't I?

Love love love

Javier Reyes is King!

The D# to F melody at 0:25 sounds nice, quite folksy. :) My fave bit.

I would love to see what the bass guitar is doing actually... always these guitar focused videos with AAL

Le duo infernal

I just wish the song faded out on that last part for like, a couple more hours.

This is insane..wow!

WE NEED AN ACOUSTIC PLAYTHROUGH

Javier’s like that uncle I never had.

I would've been fine with that outro just continuing on for quite some time...

These guys are insanely skilled. I gotta say that Javier’s playing really shines while using classical guitar technique. His playing even looks less labored than Tosins on classical guitar. Both are absolutely geniuses though.

I wonder what Javier and Tosin’s relationship is like

Man that LTD though! Stellar playing as always guys keep pushing music to it's limits

Absolutely amazing

How fun it may be to play

My fav to play along on my cajon!

1:19 you can see Tosin mouthing with the notes he’s about to play. He’s fucking unbelievable, and I don’t think anyone will ever one-up him in terms of raw prowess

why are these guitars not tuned together lol the high E sounds off on one of them

The improvisation @ 1:12 if not taken into consideration and with disregard just happens to mean that one cannot be allowed to think freely and ingenuously within One's (Animals as Leaders:Tosin Abasi & Javier Reyes) compositions. Very Impressed on How Tosin managed to pull off what Paco De Lucia & Al Di Meola accomplished on their own tours, which is a distinction in real time and its cemented confines of the song. Great playthrough, Guys. Keep on rocking the world with precise thoughts. v^-^*

I love the lyrics....

Javier Reyes rocks on this song!!

So cool

amazing this to f...

Javier djenting on an acoustic is the best thing i saw today

Awesome!

I dont know who they are but I wanna buy this 🌌 jk totally know who they are. Hah still wanna buy this 🌆
