Plini - Cascade (Audio) 

Dude that part from 0:00 to 6:00 is incredible!!

This song helped me beat dark souls 3

If plini’s music isn’t playing at my funeral, I ain’t dying

From 03:58 on begins one of the most perfect compositional orchestrations I've ever had the pleasure to experience. You think that theme play couldn't get any better and then, just shortly thereafter at 04:13 that chunk-chunk-chunk bliss begins ... My frickin' skin gooses every single time I hear it.

Saw Plini live last week and they played this. Fucking ✨MAGICAL✨ It was so surreal listening to this song and many others online for years and finally seeing the boys play it live was a completely amazing experience and I definitely recommend anyone who can see Plini live, fucking do it.

I just realized that 4:57-5:27 is the main melody of Handmade Cities (the song) thrown in right at the end in a different key along with the Cascade melody tacked on to the end of the phrase to bring the album full circle. Fucking brilliant.

*When Plini tries to djent and accidentally does it better than everybody else.*

You sir, have revolutionized prog.

It's been 8 years already... I never told this to anybody, but this album cover captures something i cannot express. Something about going through a illustrated book as a 7 yo kid, late at night with only lamp light. It's hard to describe, because it's there, at the bootom of my mind.

Amazing music. Cant help but give that drummer credit too. Man he kills it too

When Steve Vai personally recomends something, you know it's going to be good

The use of silence in this song is FANTASTIC 0:52 1:39

Just think for a moment. Out of all the planets in the universe, all the time periods, somehow, we’ve all ended up in this one, able to experience this music fresh and brand new

As a home brewer, Cascade is one of my favorite hops. I am naming my next brew "Plini" no matter what it turns out to be.

Wow, Steve Vai himself is giving props

This is one of the best instrumental songs I've heard in a long time. I can't get enough of it.

This is like the best thing I've ever heard in my life. And I've listened to so much music. I was looking forward to this album but this track just exceeded my expectations, which is something that rarely happens these days with anything. I just can't believe it. It's absolutely perfect. I really, really feel this. Thank you so much. I am a new man. Thanks Plini.

That INSANE HEAD-BANGING feel from 4:43 till the end of eternity... Why did the song have to end??? Such deep melody and them feels... PLINI, yer' a GOD!!

Plini's solos build like no other. His compositions are amazing

Plini’s music touches the deepest part of my soul. And when the inevitable time comes this is the last thing I want to hear as I take my last breath upon this beautiful good earth.

This just sets you on the perfect mood for anything

I don't know what it is, but Plini is the master of building a theme around a melody in the beginning of the album and just evolving it throughout the album until it comes to a head towards the end in some extremely powerful and moving moments such as at 4:56 Nobody does it better, and I think it makes for exceptional album writing that makes all of the songs in an album make sense as a collection rather than some artist that try to write a bunch of cool songs and then throw them on an album without any real reasoning or sense as to why those songs would go together.

This is absolute perfection. The precision required to do this.... The godlike composition it took to write it... I think this is the most impressive musicianship I've ever heard. The sounds blend and run with each other in harmonies I've never thought about before.

I feel so lucky to listen to Plini's music. So damn lucky.

Plini's sophistication with Troy's drums sounds good to me.

I often get memories when I listen to music (nothing new) and the memories bound to this song are the days when you released the album and how this track moved me. Cascade has been the only track which reminds me listening to the song itself for the first times. You're a magician Plini ♥

Omg 3:16 TO 3:46 IS just so melodic, that was some tasty phrasing man!!

So glad nowadays they still make unpredictable music …

Plini's phrasing is amazing / a breath of fresh air

The part starting at 4:43 is simply epic.

Two weeks ago I discovered this song.....and from that moment I 'm listening it every day.....pure magic! How did I miss this in 2016?

This is my favorite thing of the album. Heck man, the whole album is phenomenal :D Plini, Troy, Simon, Ermin and Alex thank you guys so much for the amazing music and art. Keep up the good work :)

This song is Plini's magnum opus. Nothing short of perfection.

From the first moment I heard this album, I knew I was in love.

Ka$cade

2:48 Shine On You Crazy Diamond

Every now and then I come here to listen to this master piece, every time it makes even more sense, it's just incredible, the arrangement behind the solo parts is sometimes even better than the solo itself, the mix played a huge role in giving this piece the space it deserves, I just love every aspect of it!!

You go so many places in your harmony

Album favorite, SO GOOD

This track is fucking incredible; hell, who am I kidding? This entire album kicks total ass. Plini, you have yet to put out a song that doesn't shake the foundations of my music loving mind. Keep doing what you do, man. You do it too fucking well.

If I ever have kids I'm going to sing this to them when they go to bed at night.

5:12 goosebumps

I haven't been able to stop listening to this album since I first heard it over a month ago. From the variety of styles represented, to the fullness and diversity of texturing and layering, to the cycling polyrhythms and their integration into varying time signatures, to the memorable and emotive melodies, to the clever use of motifs that help build the album into an experience, I can't remember a time in recent past when a single album has fulfilled so many of my listening needs. Thank you, Plini. This is truly a masterpiece.

Oh god Yes! Sweet buttery baby jesus.

Fuck me! Never have I been so impressed by instrumental tech metal this much before. This is just brilliant. It takes me on a journey of never ending musical ingenuity. SO FUCKIN GOOD! Plini, this is the best instru-metal record I've heard in ages. Bravo!!

Steve Vai posted about you. You win dude.

I think each one of Plini's songs are the best song in this world

I just discovered this band and I have to say, I missed something so good this whole time...

WOW! Plini is truly blessed with amazing talents as a guitarist and composer.

Thank you Plini. Was absolutely blown away by the amount of talent in this song.. Put up a reaction video for it and had no idea what to expect. I was absolutely blown away

Ok people...let'S AGREE that it's one of plinis best song

does anyone else hear the albums full story in this? god i love it. that is pure genius in composition.

Discovered this guy and animals as leaders yesterday. In awe, instant fan!

Listening to this for the millionth time and the anticipation for what is to follow building up never fails to make me an excited little child jumping up and down

This is the greatest thing I've ever heard man.

Plini, if you ever read this, I want to let you know this song blew my mind in such a way that has changed the way I see and write music from now on. I wanna thank you for such a masterpiece, each part of this song is literally insane. Thank you!

doctor: you have 6 minutes to live *puts this on*

I love this song. I saw this guy live in Vancouver and they'are still in my head. Make me dream! Amazing concert!

never have I clicked in a notification so fast in my life. ❤❤❤

Best of Plini right here!

Plini's consciousness - straight from the heavens.

plini man.. this after electric sunrise has to be the best song in the album. haven't shed a tear to music in a long time. and this has floored me. keep em coming you Messiah

Plini is such a gift. My favourite guitarist FOR SURE.

To anyone who came here because of Steve Vai, you are in for one hell of a ride \m/

ending always makes me cry still too this day!

Best Plini song ever

Such an ethereal and lush soundscape Plini, Nice!

The last 500 times I've listened to this piece I hear it a new, with even greater appreciation.

I was never too keen on Plini, but I just gave this full record a spin for the first time and I gotta admit that this record is brilliant.

Buying my tickets to see plini intervals and animals as leaders in December. Can't wait

this is so incredible... thanks Plini

4:57 dat Handmade Cities reference gave me goosebumps

I see a lot of people here commenting about Steve Vai etc. Even with myself as a guitarist, Vai's music never really touched me and Plini's does (a lot). Not saying anything negative here about Grand Master Vai, but can anyone maybe recommend some stuff from Vai that might interest me, like how Progressive Metal fusion from Plini and many others does. Also, Plini my man.. much love

Just listened to the whole album through. This is definitely the best song on here! This whole album is amazing though. AOTY for sure.

Never heard of these guys until I saw they will be on tour with animals as leaders in December. So looking forward to hearing more epicness from plini

3:00 - 3:08 omg this is perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Never heard such an exciting rhythm guitar line !

Handmade Cities is genius. Whatever you are doing, it's amazing. Keep developing your style, PLEASE.

Quelle belle musque inspirée, intelligente, magnifique! Merci Plini, je suis fan

These guys are definitely evolutionizing a new way of music

Handmade cities is mindblowing, every song is so catchy, this is really impressive songwriting and execution, feel so uplifted with this album..

the intro is almost like the cascade of animals as leaders, wkwk amaze

Absolutely amazing track. So glad music like this exists.

God this song is so fuckin' good, I can't get enough.

This is bordering on soundtrack epic... more, more, more!

This song is just pure perfection

The mastering of this song is amazing...

I found this because of Steve Vai. I am not disappointed. In fact - there are quite a few things in here that remind me a lot of some of Steve's "Passion & Warfare" stuff.

This song is amazing.

One of my favorite guitar player ...

Favourite song on the album.

This album is goddamn euphoric. CANT STOP LISTENING

Awesome hybrid, awesome tunes. The whole album is a revolution

I love your music. keep on surprising us!!! with your energetic music. 🤘

never never never disappoints!!!!!!

This is unique, Plini is definitively the best i've heard in a while, I need this album physically!

I Love this. Layered soundscapes that are sourced from alien atmospheres (sorry..my only way of describing them ) with all the Beautiful melodic, jazz/metal leads that define modes unknown to mortals. Awesome !!!

this is pure love ♥

oh the shivers...

So amazing and unique. I can't get enough.
