Hip-hop duo - Madlib and Lord Quas. Record scratching for the win! Your suggestions... my musical journey. This is all your fault! INSTAGRAM / mercurialno6 TWITTER / mercurialno6 PODCAST the-only-podca... #quasimoto #reaction #review
I'm just a random South African guy watching a random British bloke experience the creation of a mad scientist on shrooms. So just another Friday night.
Madlib actually has a few jazz / jazz inspired albums! He was given access to the archives of Blue Note Records and made an album called 'Shades of Blue'. He made a jazz tribute album for Weldon Irvine called 'A Tribute to Brother Weldon'. He also has 'Angels Without Edges' which is a jazz album under one of his alias, 'Yesterdays New Quintet' where he plays all the instruments himself but credits them to fictional people... love your reactions man!
Fun fact: This album came about on a Magic Mushroom trip while in his studio. Madlib didn't like his rapping voice so he pitched down the beats and rapped over them only to pitch them back up. Too bad he "doesn't fuck with Quas anymore".
YES YES YES YES YES!!! I wanted you to review this so badly this is amazing! Imo this is one of the most underrated hip hop albums, it’s so cartoonish and atmospheric and it’s amazing.
One of my favorite albums of all time. I find it to be so consistent, as every single song is enjoyable for its own reasons while still tying together phenomenally
This is my number 1 favorite album of all time. I will almost never get tired of it. It's essentially a surreal cartoony like world with pychedelics, humour, amazing production and a sense of magic and also a hint of just pure surrealism and weirdness. It's a shame not many people actually know about it since its easily one of most creative and best hip hop albums ever.
8:25 mannn this vibe was crazy, I was sitting across the computer screen just feeling the vibe head rocking just as hard as he was. Keep up the work M6!!
You fr should get a Patreon, it doesn't feel right enjoying all this kickass content (with so much effort going into the editing and experience) without getting the chance to offer something in return lol
This album had me zoned out for a whole summer. I had to pull over when I heard that at 19:20. I was thinking “wtf is that I don’t remember that” then I seen you playing. That was dope haha
I liked the vinyl opening as someone who listens to music mostly digitally you should take a poll to see if people want that or not (assuming people complained about it and that's why you didn't show off the vinyl case)
Your videos are just great, i love it, another Madlib recommendation would be his first hip hop group, Lootpack and their album Soundpieces: Da Antidote
u hit it right on the head when u guessed that this was recorded slowed down, then sped up in post. madlib took a bunch of shrooms and this was the product
Yeah fair enough, RD is def tighter but I think TB is more well-rounded in variety of subject matter and production. Idk they’re my 2 fav Jay albums so I’d take either
@@ozzymandias8137 I'd say variety in production goes to RD - you got kinda late 70s and early 80s pop sound, 80s and early 90s R&B type beats and you also got the dark NY aesthetic with Preemo on the beats
The audience retention stats would shock you! I lose 40% of the audience within 16 seconds. I only have 7% of people watching during the end section (my 'review' bit) of the video. Imagine how bad it was when I dwelled on the unboxing of the vinyl! Ha ha! It's quite sad really. Ultimately I'm trying to get these videos down to around 6 - 11 minutes long. You can see that I'm struggling! Ha ha!
Wow. I am so ecstatic you decided to do this album. Madlib is one of my favorite artists. When I saw your post earlier I was a little sad when you confirmed you weren't going to be doing Frank Ocean like everyone thought but as soon as I saw the notification for this video that all went away instantly. Another project you might enjoy is his album "Shades of Blue: Madlib Invades Blue Note" where he uses his sampling prowess to take on the Blue Note record catalogue. Anyways love ya man, thanks for the amazing videos.
Make a Patreon! I'd love to support your work, you put in a lot of work & deal with a lot of slack and criticism. I found you some time ago and it's been a great trip!
dopeee reactionnn. was just gonna say when u listen to kanyes debut the college dropout the whole thing isn't on the vinyl like all the skits and stuff it's probably gonna be better to stream it you'll actually get to listen to the whole thing properly. that thing u said about music being a time machine is sooo true literally before watching this i watched tic tok and the song on it took me back to the days i used to spend at my uncles house while the radio was playing on the tv when i was younger.
I love your content man and your reaction and expressions make me appreciate the music even more. I was made aware of the fact that you aren’t paid for any of this and I hope that you make a patreon so I can support you any way that I can. Thanks for doing what you do!
Love this album, hope you do the follow up some day too! Oh, and Run the Jewels! Run the Jewels should be right up your alley, I'm convinced. edit- The video for Come on Feet is worth checking out if you ever get the urge, super trippy.
I would highly recommend listening to Since I Left You by The Avalanches if you love this sample based production. Madlib is always great. I would also recommend checking out Lootpack which was a project Madlib was a big part of around the same time.
Two bands to listen to: 1. Arcade Fire - Everything now 2. Modest Mouse - Good News For People Who Likes Bad News 2.5. Sims 3 Katy Perry expansion pack soundtrack Enjoy
Been loving some of these editing choices recently, your videos have become way more stylised and unique. I’d recommend Hobo Johnson and BROCKHAMPTON’s recent albums, I think you’d enjoy them!
