Roland JD-Xi x RD2000 Jazz Improv by Yohan Kim 

House chords, house beat, jazz improv- flame solo!

Better than 99% of music that’s currently on the chartbusters list

Chords is basically th same as What You Wont Do for Love by Bobby Caldwell which due to the songs versatility, being played / sampled in so many different styles, might be the best song ever written.

The lick starting at 1:57-2:02 is so sensational. Amazing melody

That lead is one of my favorite sounds in the entire fucking world.

Simply amazing jazz lines! Actually, listening again, it reminds of the greats, like Jeff Lorber, yet you are throwing in so many cool jazz scales and patterns.

I grew up in the 50s and 60s and we used to watch Liberace on TV and think he was good. HA! This 18 year old plays 500 concentric circles around the old "good" artists and he has the technology to assist in the creation. Yohan obviously is an electronics geek and knows how to use the Roland to its full potential. He is amazingly inventive and makes it all look so easy. He can only get better and we will be here to enjoy his wonderful jazzy music. Thank you, RU-vid for making it easy for these young artists to get the exposure they deserve and have earned.

That pitch bending gave me shivers.

That had a Haywyre vibe to it, nice work.

Why would anyone dislike this? Seriously this is amazing

진짜 천재다천재.. 음악해주셔서 감사해요

Very satisfying

The best on RU-vid hands down...this kid is very talented...he needs more attention on him cuz he's better than alot of top producers in the game today...

애기 모습을 본 게 오래되지 않은 것 같은데 언제 이렇게 청년의 모습이 되었나요~ 넘 멋지네요~ 멋진 연주도 잘 보고 듣고 갑니다~~

ESSE MENINO E UM MONSTRO, TOCA MUITOOOOOOOOOOO, PARECE DE OUTRO PLANETA, QUE MARAVILHA, MUITA SAUDE PARA ELE E MUITOS ANOS DE VIDA.PARABENS.

This is one of the most satisfying pieces I've ever heard. Thanks, Yohan!

Yohan the beginning part when you started playing and recording on the JD-XI 0:37 - 0:47 I started tear up, how beautiful it sounds, I haven't been able to practice piano on my Juno DS-88 in ages, and it is a pity that it is laying in the dust, Today I felt a huge rush of motivation, I never felt before for producing music, I played on my friends Fantom 8 last night, and the way he was shocked and that he told me to not stop learning piano and continue the journey. I started ditching most of my other hobbies, that will prevent me of time and for reaching my dream of being able to Improvise like you. I need to put a high priority on music because 23 is not a young age anymore to begin. Today I picked up a MPC Live 2 and will also pick a smaller midi controller with after touch like the Arturia Keystep 37, or go also for the JD-XI, that synth sounds truly orgasmic and beautiful when it is played by a master player like yourself, that was blessed to practice since a young age. I hope I have enough time left, for with hard work and dedication to also one day get near your level. Not many artists make me cry, but the emotion I got from that intro recording was in my eyes perfection. Keep going forever, inspiring the whole wide world, I remember watching your video when you played a Michael Jackson song at a very young age near flawlessly... Incredible

U 2 a person of incredible natural gift, that's the JAZZ I always searching for

This is what I call talent

여태까지 듣던 즉흥연주 중에 가장 좋아서 학교 가는 지하철에서도, 공강 시간에도, 집 오는 밤의 지하철과 버스에서도 틈 날 때마다 듣고 있어요 😌 이런 좋은 연주를 들려주신 요한님 너무너무 고마워요!♥️

Finally found a good demo this synthesizer

That's some bloody sweet playing

This sound is speaking to my soul! This young man is an incredible talent....much love health and happiness to you always!

amazing how two octaves' worth of keys can produce very wholesome music. I like that

Awesome BB Gossum! God made the notes, but thank God you organized them, and had us all experience them. The Yellow Pages used to have their slogan: “Let your fingers do the walking,” now you can claim it.

The piano section at the end was amazing!

프로로 언제 데뷔하세요??? 연주와 노래, 스타일 너무 좋아요

For everyone comparing this to Corey Henry, etc...check out Jeff Lorber. Jeff practically single-handedly invented all this stuff back in the 70s. But Yohan does it extremely well. Way to go man!

Super talented and hardworking. Keep it up.

Anything you compose is a masterpiece! I really hope you'll have an album soon and I'll definitely purchase one! 😆 You were stunning btw Yohan Kim!

피아노의 음을 들었다 놓았다 하는 피아니스트 요한님 멋져요~~ 늘 잘듣고 있어요~ 영상 올라올 때마다 피아노 연습을 많이해서 요한님처럼 되고싶다는 열의?를 느껴요ㅋㅋ

06:00 Sunday morning, this was a great way to start my day! Wonderful playing.

Dude you are ridiculously capable on the piano. It seemed at first you were strictly technical in your gift, but I got a few goosebumps here and there during this improv as you let the time ebb and flow to your whim...so you got the heart too. Try and let that shine through more and I'd be amazed if you don't blow the fuck up. Wow man this is amazing.

요한,,당신은 한국에만 있음 안돼,, 어서 세계로 나아가,,,,,와아하..보는내내 ㄹㅇ감탄중,,

탁트인 가을 하늘이 보이는 음악이에요☁️

A super-infectious jam and some really tasty ideas in there.

음악을 듣다보면 이거 듣다 저거 듣다 하잖아요?? 요한님 음악듣고 한동안 안듣던 재즈듣습니다..보통 옛날 쿨재즈만 좋아했는데 요한님 덕에 다른느낌의 재즈도 찾아듣게되네요 감사합니다.

Cory Henry vibes 😀 amazing skills !

makes me think of T-Square with the synth and grand piano combo

재즈포함 퓨전재즈 일렉 뮤직 등등 안가리고 15년 넘게 들었지만 요한킴의 연주는 제 귀를 즐겁게 해줘서 너무 좋습니다!

Sin palabra que maravilla dios

this guy is an absoloute genius oh my lord either that or improv can be easily shown off, never the less amazing

Très bon swing, j’adore et j’adhère ! Merci

JD-Xi and RD2000 What a sexy combo

1:57Fell in love

저랑 나이도 비슷하신데, 정말 잘 연주하시네요 음악을 진지하게 하는 모습이 정말 대단하시네요! 화이팅

You have talent, fantastic solo whit upper Roland preset lead pad monophonic. Great solo really bellissimo on the Roland down. Compose something writes a real hit for Radio and an Album. I compose a lot . Improvvise over 4 chords it's improve not Co. Well job continue you are doing well and you have taken the right street and you study , because the quality it's growing fast

다양한 음악을 시도하는 모습 보기 좋아요!! 코드 진행도 매력적이에요

I think the recording metronome sort of adds to it! Nice jazz jamming!

I LOVE THAT MINI KEYBOARD

This is why i bought a Roland JD-Xi and i am playing it almost every day. Thank you, Yohan! All the best, Chris

this was released on my birthday. can confirm it's better than anything else I got.

어제 영발단 다시 나와서 연주하는거 보고 충격먹었는데 역시 요한님은 대단하세요 20살인 전 뭐한건가 싶네요ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 저도 전공입시 준비하려고 음악학원에서 밤새 살다시피했지만 진짜 즐기는 연주자들은 못따라 가겠더라구요 즐기는 모습이 보이고 행복해보이네요 앞으로 멋진 음악 기대할께요

Cassiopeia layer JD-Xi, :) .Great timings

Dude be killing them keys such a smooth tune

Great!!! God bless you and your family

요즘 덕분에 피아노 찾아 듣는 재미에 푹 빠졌어요:) 좋은 영상 올려주셔서 감사해요! 항상 응원하겠습니다!:)

eargasm

I have been binge watching your videos. Absolutely love! Please break down your setup! Thank you for sharing 🙏🏾‼️

Many people can't appreciate it because this was a hidden secret treasure that God will possible given for a few chosen people that's why we should thank God for he had open our ears, heart, soul and mindset to appreciate the beauty of this noble music.

Whoa... What an amazing improvisational jazz playing skills... Totally loved ur music.. Blew my mind off...!! 🤗👍👍

Very talented

So good. So so so good.

어떻게 이런 연주를 ㅠㅠ 좋은 연주 감사합니다 정말 너무 멋있어요

Little bit of Daft Punk - Something About Us and a whole lot of Cory Henry, I dig it.

Superb.

I enjoy every single video and music you posted!! 😊😊 Thank you for always motivating me. God bless you Yohan Kim 😄

Dem New Jack Swing chords! Love!

소름이 쫙~~~음악이 넘 좋아요🍓

This a perfect dosage of jazz for the day. Fabulous work!

This is Way Cool, very hip Funk Jazz creation, you've got shredding chops, especially on the keyboard below....I admire and envy your life right now! I play jazz sax and piano, keyboards, but have been homeless and without any gear for past few years...your stuff lifts my spirits actually.

you just convinced me to put this synth on my radar! I was like, "huh the roland jd xi? I gotta see what this sounds like. if it sounds anything like the classic roland stuff, I'm in!" Thank you!

1:55-2:03 is a great line and where did you get that idea from?

악기 진짜 이쁘다...

Yohan Kim is my spirit animal

Great vid to practice your jazzy bass playing skill to. I must have played along with this about half a dozen times.👍

진짜로 넋놓고 봤어요 .. 다음 영상도 기대할께요🙏🎧

Aye man.... Am I the only one who is enjoying his style? Props to you dude.... I'ma big fan of ur playing🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯

nice sounds and synths

無限ループして聴いてる…

great!! a good musician doing a good demo with musical skills, melody, harmony and rythm.

raw talent.. man went crazy

You're phenomenal. Jammed with you, but your piano chops (when you went on the piano) are better than mine, I still play too much in the style of old bebop, but I have never got around playing soul as you've obviously have. Also I never plann in my life as it honestly disorientates me while improvising. I'm interested in recording myself, but would prefer a good mic and camera, and I don't mind it costing over $2k, but what would recommend?
