DBR & THE MISSION in Las Vegas

[thechillinhippy]

Yo DBR ever consider doing anything with 2CELLOS? Listening to this I can just see and hear them rocking out with you....So beautiful.

[eclecticviolin]

[MusicLady854]

I think it's awesome and who ever desn't appreciate a different take on classical music is retarded. He has a lot of talent to be able to take this and make it more current. Not everyone always wants to hear Bach how it was originally played.

[jcreeves]

Bach meeting HipHop is similar to Japanese citizens meeting an atomic bomb - that is to say it is an inexcusable atrocity.

[merjguitar]

well i heard no hip hop in this really, and you really need to open your mind and respect all sorts of music. saying that it is an atrocity just shows everyone what an ignorant fool you are.

[fritzbrothajoe]

@jcreeves wow.. what an intelligent metaphor.. comparing the deaths of thousands in cotext to music you don't grasp.. so heres an intelligent response... RETARD

[ShipsVoodoo]

Thank you for stopping this nonesense guys

I understand i wasnt acting right, and i apalogize

No bad feelings?

[d8899]

Sorry not my cup of tea.

oops it spilt

hum , I see the violins , but they don't sound like them. More like guitar hero video.

oops...... spilt another cup Rock on ........ All that JAZZ.

[niski12]

love it!

[mcricee]

he's collaborating with my orchestra and he is a genius. hearing him lecture and hearing his views of the world makes him even cooler.

[1licketysplit1]

im not saying its bad, cause its great, but i dont see why they put hip-hop in the title. As someone whose is involved in the hip hop comunity i dont see the link :/

[ipwnedanoob]

absolutely amazing

[BOSOX9004]

I dont wish death upon many people...

[llorima]

I'm so honored that i get to play a piece he wrote this October!

[simpsfn023]

It's not out of tune. It is called dissonance. There is a big difference. After hearing Dr. Roumain lecture you would understand why he composes his music in this way. I believe he is one of the most brilliant composers and musicians of our time.

[3percentage]

definatley

[hawkechik]

@simpsfn023 I have no other way of putting it - his music is oddly appealing to me and I suspect I will be searching out more of it.. 

[qrrb]

Yeah, but this is SO much cooler.

[Romanticloser16]

i just finished watching them last night.

it was amazing so i had to look them up here so i could listen to them here. :)

[japeye9]

Le sigh

[chippyslilguy]

I'm new to the whole distorted violin thing, but its amazing.

[EatinCactus]

I Love It...! I appreciate his music, that he's been playing the violin since pre-school age. Listen to his Album titled "etude4violin&electronix", along with his compilation with the Lark Quartet! I love this Dred Violinist who lives in Harlem and composes his own beautiful music without feeling like he has to "bow down" to the stereotypical "european" style, and yet can jam with them! I respect him! May you be filled with wisdom, peace, love and joy! I love DBR and his music!!!

[falafabetsoup]

he was saying in one interview 'i want to push the violin forward' and 'i decided i'm a haitian american composer' which is the exactly type of rhetoric a person who uses society's definitions (whether being for or against them) as their collage pieces for defining themselves would use. It's no surprise then that this guy's so eager to make it his identity, all the while making something that actually sounds imo like generic music you would hear at medieval times. I see no limits being pushed..

[jusbcuz29]

what bach song is this?

[gwydionismyhero]

This is terrible.

[JOSHISNICE]

I met this guy 3 days ago man he is awesome I got to talk to him and everythinng

[lukeduke2525]

i saw him with the mission at berklee, and then at the ICA with dj scientific, and talked to him after both. He is absolutely amazing.

[fiddlercrab3]

DBR is definitely doing some funky shit. I feel like the music lacks something, though, because while everyone's going "whoa, those have never been combined!" the tune itself could have been funkier.

[RodianRaskolnikof]

Bach is god an hip hop is THE DEVIL INCARNATE!!! sucks!!!! what an abominatioN!!!!

[benjabitoya]

yeahhhhhhh go jon!

[fillmoresound]

you know this is some incredible shit as soon as it hits you. props to the band and production staff for such a great vid. outstanding.

[sandman543212004]

i think you should work with E.s posthumus.

[chicagodom]

Very cool work.

[jferraracc]

This is so totally cool and really DBR & The Mission! Starting out so demurely with Bach and classical art flashing in the background, then here comes the wonderful entrance of Daniel's violin and everything changes... nothing like it in the world. This video is incredible! Wish I had been in Las Vegas...
