Hypnotic Brass Ensemble: "War"

[ncdesign]

This track and video is truly inspirational...... For me its one of the best music videos ever made..

[michelleyuen]

not enough people have listened to this.

[MrDiggaMeMusic]

[MadSativa]

powerful tune

[ArsenalAza]

slower than the live sets, dont like it

[pdalencour]

Ugmm... outstanding production and tune. Great job whenever I see these brothers on. Years later, still in rotation.

[DerBalin]

very good, but nothing against YBB and Mnozil Brass!

[MetSkwisMaidlica]

[lucifersam79]

One of the best live bands around

[psyfreaka]

[Regginyaga]

[deyterkourjerbs]

@Regginyaga So dank.

[kasgo]

Great music, good clip but does no one else see that they completely don't match? War is not an easy listening! Where are the extremities? Where is the tragedy?

[barnaclegooseful]

@kasgo ever thought the name 'war' might be ironic?

[kasgo]

@barnaclegooseful sure, tell it to the people whose suffering has been shown in the video

[barnaclegooseful]

@kasgo i'm not going to get into some long debate about war and peace. just appreciate the music, it's fucking dope

[davidlmiinternationa]

Great video and music!!!

[lauraklolz]

Even they're names are just too good. I mean, Imagine if one of them was called something boring. Like Brian.

[MozoPDA]

[sebs82]

Music with soul, many thanks for this, love from Australia

[musikeranglola]

yeah

[MUTxINC]

this just had sex with my ears. oh shit.

[kembooo000]

I'm discovering the band right now. the music is lacking some energy. go check out antibalas afrobeat.

[CoolBlokeAndABit]

@kembooo000 Dude, go listen to the version of War on The Jools Holland show then see if they lack energy :)

[GelGsound]

@CoolBlokeAndABit it was repeated last night, they were great.

[thathillkid]

@kembooo000 Planet Gibbous - Hypnotic Brass Ensemble. Arguement solved.

[kembooo000]

@thathillkid Ok that song is catchy, but there's still something lacking in these trumpets. I think the problem womes with the mixing, the sound is too soft. I'm sure they don't sound like that live.

pls just check out antibalas afrobeat orchestra - elephant.

nother great song of that band is called "big man"

It's raw, just what music should be like

[imt3hm4n]

@kembooo000 Being able to play softly is a real skill on brass instruments :p

[ajmetz82]

@kembooo000 If this is too soft for you, there's a harder version of the same track here: youtube.com/watch?v=Ospt8g4i-9­k

[angrydeathh13]

I saw these guys perform with Gorillaz in october and when they came out and played on "Broken" i almost broke into tears. I've been hooked ever since, this is true talent right here.

[MegaDrSingh]

thats one talented family

[dalmankidz06]

I simply love this song. And Black or white?- It don't matter. We all hear the same. Music is music. Love all. (:

[fliparoo1234]

BLACK POWER!

[crotchshotradioshow]

RESPECT!!!!

[Ph43dru5]

28 people don't know what real music sounds like.

Trombones represent!

[AVerbene]

this is real talent. not the auto tune bull shit you hear on the radio.

[diakritikos]

Respect & greetings from Greece.!!!

[diakritikos]

Respect & greetings from Greece.!!!

[diakritikos]

[pissrobot]

@drugaddict1235 

[thornton117]

So good.

[PaperdrumSoSweet]

CHECK OUT MY VIDEOS AT EVANESCENCE9494 AND PAPERDRUMSOSWEET!!!

[NailimiMontesi]

Bup bup bup bup bup, bup bup bup bup bup ba bup!

[DJvincedavinci]

Nicca!!! how do i get this ish on my iPod

[fieryfather]

sounds way way better at the album tempo instead of this slowed down version.

Far more of a strut to the album one than this...

[tecnicosilva]

The clip and music are really fab!

[LilReaper1010]

YOU GOT THAT BRASS POWUH!!!

[SouBrazil]

Great sound. Very good.

[KIKIVENGEANCE]

26 faggets don't know a good brass ensemble when they hear it.

[DbagChix]

@KIKIVENGEANCE their opinion problem makes them gay, good call!

[ultra3level1goku]

26 people are now having intelligent discussions with 9mm homing projectiles

[KroMcLovinFaSho]

Whenever I'm drunk I like to play this song and jump around and get pumped as if they're a marching band and I'm about to go play a football game

[RLTinsane]

26 people listen to justin bieber.

[AndPlus]

Amazing band. I liked them before Damon fucking Albarn decided to think there were cool to have hanging around his indulgent side project.

[TheJunyoshida]

26 morrons....

[leronzo]

yikes. I came in my pants.

[jjamerican93]

They should play this stuff on the radio. It sounds absolutely amazing.

[rdru00001]

Heavy! :)

[Eoinposse]

Wow. Damon Albarn has a great taste.

[Idude893]

I heard them play during the Gorillaz Escape to Plastic Beach tour. They sure know how to make music I can shake to.

[kB5ka]

Listen to this walking down the street.

Feel like a fucking boss.

[TheWhitestPersonEver]

@kB5ka LIKE A BOSS

[minigolfer101]

@kB5ka Im thinking about playing that in NYC with a few friends.

[unknownbruneian]

trumpets are the best!

[farotv82]

Bravi! Complimenti dall'Italia! ;)

[BAMBOOLOUNGE]

nice

[jdjep]

They're much better live I have to say

[Quasarmuhammad]

First time hearing of them....I'm late!!

[kevdebable]

It is okay for what it is, however, if you want to hear truly exceptional brass playing, listen to the Burning River Brass on YouTube.

[TeslaCollision]

@kevdebable For what it is? What does that mean?

[kevdebable]

@TeslaCollision I would say that it is okay brass playing for the average listener. I do not think it is worthy of all the lavish praise given to it by all of the viewers.

[rdru00001]

@kevdebable I have to agree, the Brass isn't the strongest part. I think the percussion is really tight and makes up for everything else, it carries the song along nicely.

[Alexthepwner1]

@rdru00001 well, the brass is doing what's know as "style", i am sure these are above average players of classical music and what not, but they a playing parts for other instruments, like the tuba: String Bass.

[rdru00001]

@Alexthepwner1 Thanks for telling me! :)

[Alexthepwner1]

@rdru00001 no problem :D

[TeslaCollision]

@kevdebable The average listener? What does that even mean? Sorry dude but this is excellent brasswork.

[kevdebable]

@TeslaCollision I'm sorry I didn't realize you're a brass player and apparently you like pep band music.

[TeslaCollision]

@kevdebable pep band? you must be a racist; and I'm not about to sit here and listen to a bigot badmouth a unique and soulful set of artists.

[mechametal]

woooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!­!!! amazing..chills down the spine.

[DatFrigginGuy]

My new ring entrance song...

[SEL500]

why doesnt what I wanna say post



[SEL500]

[TheAdamat]

Make that 22 people dont understand good music

[diegoforlansheadband]

[TekkenPaul]

They were amazing on Later...with Jools Holland. They played this and rocked the shit out of it!

[mrvincequan]

Damn, this is so good it's giving me goosebumps.

[eganl]

Who would DARE to give this a dislike...

Animals, that's who.

[smp04c]

@eganl ...and the type of people who wouldn't be able to find shit if they were standing knee-deep in it

[leeperryismerry]

WAR. WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR?

[TheWhitestPersonEver]

@leeperryismerry ABSOLUTELY NOTHING

[wcwashington]

Love button? 

[gs05jdt]

@wcwashington yes they need a LOVe and ADORE button: google "FAMU SOS"

[NotGood1024]

[saucerdude]

[jonstar897]

[DanimalOnTheBeat]

[NewSenseBrass]

They make brass playing look great!

[NotGood1024]

wrappers with brass instruments?

DELIGHTFUL!

[mrpopenfresh]

The trombone payers a damm playa!

[thequenster]

Who the fuck dislikes this?

[saucerdude]

@eoinposse i first heard them through the gorillaz. I didnt notice until last week that they are on both welcome to the the world of the plastic beach and sweepstakes.

[niamhcam]

saw these guys by accident at a festival-they blew me away!

[plostopiuro]

muy buen grupo.....buena musica

[Pyro670]

HBE --- Proving that talent still exists, one song at a time...

[limbo194]

i first saw these guys on an episode of australian border security - they were having trouble entering australia because the drummer was a convicted felon, but in they end they got in. awesome stuff!

[murrineglass]

@limbo194

That's how I found them too :)

[assol2]

such awesomeness....

[Eoinposse]

I've heard of them through everything from Gorillaz to Glastonbury.

[RollingFatman]

this is the greatest music ever for strutting down the street

[MPCpadBanga]

this is the greatest shit ever

[Forrestman69]

This guy makes that Sousaphone sound great... now imaging a nice C Tuba... that my friend would be amazing. KD 

[jay55also]

This is a high quality talent,and the piece it self is outstanding,very enjoyable,catchy,and rich in musical depth.

[asiakismet]

how can you dislike something so beautiful? 

[idiocityproductions]

the 17 people who dont like this are either racist or tone deaf because this is the best music i have ever heard, makes me happy to play baritone, trumpet, valved trombone, and my personal favorite flugelhorn

[iCharleyStudios]

@idiocityproductions makes me happy to play all those too, and the sousaphone ;)

[WTFRawrtube]

The only problem I have with this song is I wish for some more bass melodies and for the quality to be bitching

[Benihana44]

where can i get sheet music for this??? me and my friends wanna play this for an ensemble competition in band class. we have 4 trumpets, 2 trombones, one baritone (me) and one tuba.

[JLewiz]

1209 likes and only 16 dislikes

those 16 people are wrong

[norbertlakics]

@JLewiz

they are just deaf!

[Eoinposse]

I saw them on Glastonbury... probably 2009...

[adir00]

Oremos!

[absurdosturos]

people should forget who doesn't like it and focus on what's important: the music

[MrKomKast]

They way that guy wears the Sousaphone disturbs me

[duuude16]

the 16 ppl who disliked this... really need to be socially darwinized. cuz theyre probably justin bieber fans

[brownscirocco]

I talked to these guys in the streets of chicago about seven years ago and bought a cd of off them when I was really young, theyve come a long way! and boy do they deserve to.

[amadeumc]

incrivel mesmo ! de_malungo eu tenho esse CD mto foda! RT @Dani_Articular: Isso sim é q é metal! RT @lombardi13: @amadeumc sonzera!

[v2shan]

Makes me wanna take my trumpet out from under my bed, after having not touched it in years.

[LLJtbone]

@v2shan Go get it!! This is cool stuff, liking it alot. Makes me want to grab my tbone too!

[mindtrippp]

taste.....

[ReverieAvenue]

Didn't even realise I'd stopped breathing until the song was over.....

[leejonesify]

b.o.b on tuba!!!lol dope!!

[DrSpoon1991]

saw these guys on Later with jool's Holland and i really like it.

[bluemoonomen]

I've actually seen them many times in Manhattan doing their thing. These guys are tight!

[Tygrychu]

Dem brothers don't need no loudspeakers, electronic devices, promotions, managers, ads and MTV. All they need is their instuments and their souls. I saw dem cats a week ago live in Wrocław/Poland and I was blown away. So much energy in the air, so much heart put into playing, you could see they were raised inn a familiy with musical traditions. They said they wanted to bring raw music back, and i honour them for the path they have chosen. Much respect for dem Chicago bro's, wish dem the best.

[0737585]

Was partying with these guys last night... really cool people

[spintokid]

@0737585 so was i!!
