This song sounds like Christmas on an island. Not your typical snowy Christmas.. At least I read in an interview they thought this song would transplant people to a feeling of Christmas with a carribean feel to it as well. Very layered.

They could do, what they want, but they would never sound like the music from these old times. It's just some kind of revival. I don't like them... I only listen to it, because my mom want's this song as an Mp3... I prefer the real artist of this times... Sry for my english, im german.
You dont' seem to know how this music is made. It's based on samples and computing. So it's not about trying to make something old. It's about taking something old and make it sound new.
No, it's based on sound samples from old records. (the background, not the vocals). Those samples are processed with a computer and puzzled together into new songs, making something old sound new. Since technology has brought this new technique this might be as modern as it gets. It's not retro since it's very much unique for our time.
Koop is cool group and I respect that they are influenced by the great 60's lounge sound, but Alexandra has a point... as hard as you try you can only parody that great sound (Combustible Edison are another e.g.). Still good though.
I am really really sure that they are Swedish. Take a look at their website, says so there as well. Ahh well, no matter what country they're from, they still rock :-)
ahh so happy! happy happiness is what this song brings to my heart :) the beatific impulse Yukimi radiates is magnificent with the music collaborated by Koop
The singer is Yukimi Nagano. She is also on another song and video called "Summer Sun". Find it under "Koop feat. Yukimi Nagano." It's a song that really swings. She does some scat vocal improvisation backed by a vibraphone that is really beautiful. It's a great song with an uplifting feel. If you like Yukimi, do a search here on Youtube. She sings with Stateless, Little Dragon, Jafrosax, Sleepwalker and of course,Koop. Her voice is clear and smooth isn't it?
Easy Jazzkatten2. I think Yukimi Nagano's voice is "clear and smooth". She vocalizes well, her singing is intelligible & you can understand what she sings, hence "clear & smooth". "Sade's" voice in my opinion typifies "deepness". You're right on the scat though. It's not improvised, it was obviously worked out. It was 2 am & I was tired. I had knee surgery & couldn't sleep. FYI-your comments come on a little too strong against others. We're all here to watch, listen & have fun. Thanx 4 info.
jazzkatten2, Stop. Go to the washroom if you must, take a crap or piss. Then go outside and have a short walk. Come back inside and get a glass of cold water. That should ease your tension... We mean no disrespect.
Thanks grah55. I mean, am I wrong or what? I thought we were here just to watch/listen and have a good time. There's no need for getting uptight. BTW... I like your homepage and your favorites videos. Laterzzz....
You fucking Youtubers can't talk about anything positive or type anything legible. Stop being dicks. Youtube already sucks more since Google bought it and everyone goes hard with the copyright stuff at least let's try and keep the things we can control somewhat decent ie. COMMENTS
Are you kidding me? that's not what I meant. and by the way, she's mixed, just like I am. So you are the one making about race. sorry to have confused you. just listen to the music.
Wow I assumed that your comment was about her age...but I guess it can be misinterpreted...but Yukimi is cool, that's something we can all agree on :)
On thursday the 21st in the Melkweg. Starts at 9 , door opens at 8. Tickets are only available at the door right now, hope you can still get lucky! PS got them as a present, Giel Beelen gave them to me :D

no mr instahipp,
her voice is not "clear and smooth", it has a deepness that is much more interesting than that.
and the scat in summer sun is not "improvised".
