Emancipator - Kamakura

[Tehtrollzor]

I don't think I'll ever find a song with as much significance to me as this one....Without a doubt my favorite piece of music ever. Just....beautiful.

[ColoradoSon19]

If there's better boarding tunes out there - please let me know!

[vidamusical1]

any one see the face in the rock?

[KrocketAnimations]

@vidamusical1 It's a lion! 

[Piyoko1812]

@vidamusical1 I believe it is suppose to be a wolf.

[mellyjanetexas]

@vidamusical1 hell yeah lol sometimes ;)

[th3azscorpio]

@vidamusical1 glad to know Im not the only one! XD

[Gleun94]

there is a fuckin lion in this picture!

[marcuelcajon]

Damn this is good.

[LogicBlueProductions]

No dislikes. This is what i'm talking about.

[gameaover888]

@LogicBlueProductions ups we got one of them, again.

[mrmonkur]

Pretty cool, kind of like a more conservative Bonobo

[101Licious]

I love it. Great track !!

[jessejoshmatt]

i thought the picture was some creepy guy at first

[minks96]

Just my opinion but I think dj okawari is much much better

[mil3211231]

go to 500k

[Brandencarroll202]

the pic looks like a dead lion lying on its side

[stupidguyaabbcc]

@Brandencarroll202 HA and I thought it was only me

[FreakFolk101]

@Brandencarroll202

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that hahah

[sora41333]

This song comforts me when I'm walking back home at 10:00 pm through the moist, dark streets. I forget about the dangers around and me, and it doesn't bother me that i can't see whats 10 feet ahead of me. I just relax.

[Sqvusz]

i have no words 

[tantrix]

Just beautiful. Was looking to add a new artist to my collection along the lines of Nujabes (RIP), Nomak, Fat Jon, Force of Nature, etc. This is exactly what I needed. So much of the best music in this world flies under the radar.

[QuantikMusic]

@tantrix Agreed! It's good for us though seeing as once you know what to look for you can reap the benefits. In this case amazing music =D

[jamafrican657]

Look carefully.......can you see it? The panther's face in the cliff side?

[Hedgehog3342]

@jamafrican657 i see it

[heckyesss]

lol i thought that rock was a lion..like lying down...odd

[ChickenFriedVice]

this is the most laid back song EVER

[kai2nez]

I thought the title said 'Kamasutra'

[Codfert970]

I was watching an episode of BBC's Life and heard the narrator use the exact same term "safe in the steep cliffs" when referring to some highland monkeys. I wonder if he got the idea for the album name from that.

[apsiks]

i'll be original and i say that the picture of the cliff looks like a cliff ;o

[vagabobby]

the picture of the cliff looks like a pantere

[MrMusicevolution]

That picture of the cliff looks like a lion..

[SmokinTreez92]

@MrMusicevolution I see a buffalo hahaha.....

[sykopath66190]

He mostly samples his own music, if I'm not mistaken. He's a multi-instrumentalist and a musical genius, either way.

[ObsidianCinema]

Free Runners Favorite!

[giofreerun]

does he make his melodys himself? or does he use samples? does anybody know?

[skimpyyields]

@giofreerun in some tracks he makes music with musicans (like TheBJW88 wrote earlier, this track features keybords by Uyama Hiroto). I'm guesing the rest is made with samples.

[Aron420]

@giofreerun samples mainly

[butanebob1]

Nice tune. Reminds me of Nujabes.

[TheBJW88]

If you like this, try Uyama Hiroto's stuff as he did the keyboard work on this track.

[Ogunarek]

that rock looks like a kitteh

[exdav123]

@Ogunarek is the white crack supposed to be an open eye? cuz i think it looks more like a puma lol

[Ogunarek]

@exdav123 puma wutever all the same

[nightzeroAX]

Hiroto need to stop hiding.

[Joeskateapool]

so amazing!!! I love just kickin it to this music and being with good friends reminiscing of things passed.

[theinvigorater]

eargasm

[CultofPatriots]

This album is so good. I saw Emancipator and Eliot Lipp open for Bassnectar in Seattle. Really no words can describe that show. I gotta say that I hate this new Youtube set up though. It just doesn't make sense.

[luxatearna1]

this song just puts you in the mood ;) amazing music absolutely amazing.

[AdrenalineFlash]

Emancipator was inspired by Nujabes and Uyama Hiroto to make this song when he spent a day with them.

[adiamondonwings]

@AdrenalineFlash ? he's on hydeout prod., nujabes' label.......

[jaycthemc777]

this is really good.i might have to cover this for a mixtape

[bingerslinger]

this song makes me feel like i am swimming, so dope

[ChineseProduct]

yeah same

[becool365]

500th view exactly. I don't know why its not a 500000 though. This song deserves it.

[AKA1CHECKMATE]

@becool365 well its up to 34,410 right now, its still going up, slowly but its still going up. hopefully when people get out of the mainstream trend, and start listening to good music like this, well get there :) until then il do my part and keep on supporting good music and videos like this.

[becool365]

@AKA1CHECKMATE Good that its more popular! Though as far as I have observed from Underground on YouTube its actually doing pretty awesome, which is both good and bad. I know some really good songs out there for which I piled 200 views myself and it still struggled to reach 1000. It takes quite a bit of devotion to find the right sort of music, underneath all the other junk that gets recommended due to high view count.

[AKA1CHECKMATE]

@becool365 my thoughts exact man, and sorry i took long to respond, been knee deep in work. but yeah, its ashame how much garbage gets played on the radio these days, and im not one to hate on anybodys success, but it angers me when people can possibly say that litle wayne makes "good music" or when people continue to spew ignorance through the internet or television, im getting off topic, im trying to do what u did, and give emancipators vids alot of views lol

[becool365]

@AKA1CHECKMATE no sweat, life likes to mix things up occasionally.

[GreenFarmTea]

Favorite song off of the album. The piano is so cool.

[eluded1]

One of my personal favorite producers because he is so progressive with his beats and uses some of the most beautiful sounds ever, if you like this i recommend nujabes, fat jon, and bonobo.

[zenmanno]

@eluded1 very similar to bonobo

and for something with a bit more of an electric twist, thats still as down to earth as this, check out ulrich schnauss

[Invention0513]

@zenmanno agreed, have you heard Bonobo's new album Black Sands? soooo good..

[zenmanno]

@Invention0513 thanks for the heads up! ill check it out!

[damonation18]

@eluded1 DUDE YES. In this order I found Nujabes, Bonobo, and Emancipator. GLORIOUS beats forever. Bluetech's pretty good too, a little more intense however.

[roflQQless]

@damonation18 LMAO SAME HERE

[damonation18]

@roflQQless lol can't go wrong with good music!

[jamafrican657]

@damonation18 That's freakishly similar to the order I found them in lol

[teddysafford]

@eluded1 good suggestions, also check out Shing02, Little People (which I haven't seen mentioned a lot), Nomak and heRajika Tracks

[miscarli]

@eluded1 Also nomak's album muziq and photo

[sonofranfan]

@eluded1 my top 3!

[TheChiefAtlas]
