When you can get the metalheads to headbang in your jazz fusion composition, you know you've made it.

So. Fucking. Metal. Jazzy. Prog. Armenian?. Indian? Loved the mashup of styles. This song is so rich in musical styles and timings.

That little stick trick at 6:36 is everything. Reminds me of drum corps

6:28 when we said "takatetitdektiatato" i really felt that...

Who wants some TRADITIONAL ARMENIAN DJENT?!!!

i'm so happy just cause this exists and i'm alive to hear it

I let my newborn baby boy listen to this, he instantly turned 22, learned to play the bass, built a Time Machine, went back in time and replaced the bassist with himself.

The squirrel that lives in my backyard is named Tyrone. He comes in my garage sometimes. I'm feeding him peanuts right now. He likes this song.

A monastery is in white flames Rocks are melting Birds are chirping A kid is playing on gran-pa's anvil Fumes are rising Metals are dripping The Alchemist is mixing the crucible

tigran as leaders!

6:14 top 10 rappers eminem was too afraid to diss

2:25 me, approving of literally everything Tigran does

Fun fact: He has mentioned in an interview that his favourite band is Meshuggah, a swedish progressive metal band! This man is a genius. I have never felt an artist music so deeply in my emotions as his!

"Tim, how many times do I need to repeat this? Classical guitar isn't a percussion instrument." "SHUT UP MOM"

As someone who grew up listening to System of a Down but now almost exclusively listens to prog and math rock, I think I've found something very special here.

"Djent song I wrote" -Tigran Hamasyan

damn son! Such a 10 out of 10 arrangement. So pleasing for my adhd mind - growing up listening to Meshuggah, Pantera, Miles Davis, D`Angelo, Badu, albanian folk music, Primus, Gong and what have you. Why keep it in one genre. Just arrange music that is fun to play - and it will be a joy to listen to. Thank you for making something I can go back to.

You rarely see guys enjoying what they're playing than those drummers. Holy, they look like they're having a freakin blast.

Charles Cornell introduced me to Tigran Hamasyan. I’m so grateful!

6:06 -6:48 Mans spittin’ BARS 🔥

If this was on Spotify it would be my number 1 every year

Didn't know I would be able to hold my breath for 8 minutes... absurd in the best possible way, what some people are able to accomplish.

I am sad my taste in music has only of recent grown to find and enjoy this. Thanks Tigran and all the people in this group, this song will always hold a special place in my heart.

It's been a long time since someone actually make prog sounds original.This is so much better than shredding over the top, and not to say much much creative, more musical to be exact.10/10 prog over here guys.

2:03 i just noticed he's playing the choir part with his right hand and the crazy bass polyrhythm with his left. before i assumed he was just doubling the bass there. insane.

omg Djent mixed with ethic jazz, and indian bro absolutely killed it with his insane vocal odd time signature

This is genuinely one of the most incredible musical arrangements and performances I have ever witnessed. this right here is why I want to pursue music. Nothing else makes me feel like this

I've listened to this so many times and only just realized that he is whispering/scatting during his piano solo at 3:29 which gives me some more insight into the brilliance of his musical mind. Amazing!

The bassist is working so hard it's amazing....

THIS NEEDS MORE VIEWS!!! Tigran cannot possibly be a real person, good lord

best part is the cut at 2:14 from the very serious focused faces of the amazaing chorus in this recording to the guitarist absolutely losing it

That whole section between 3:29-4:22 was absolutely amazing. I love that little almost a minute of calm like jazz, idk how to describe it

This is a combination of many amazing Armenian traditional songs, it's cool how he's composed it

omfg i almost died because of the epicness of this

I love that MARO is just casually one of the backup singers.

I've watched this for what seems like a million times, and I still can't get over how much fun everyone is having. Love this so much!

Respect from India. This has been nothing but extraordinary

Still watching it in 2024. 😍

This is what creative people do when they set norms aside. Several timing nightmares that are simply mesmerizing surrounded by beautiful singing, wonderful!

This is one of the most moving live recordings I have witnessed.

This is by far the best version of this song.

This is the best thing happened in YEARS. I'm truly moved.

Still coming back to this video in 2024

I saw the piano and thought - ahhh some jazz again, and then THIS MAGIC EXPLOSION OF SOUNDS AND BLENDS happened. umami for the ears all the way. wooow. WOW.

That Konnakol part 🔥💃 !!! Everything about this is absolutely amazing... Meshuggah vibes😎

Good god. The entire band is just incredible. And the way the two drummers work together is awesome! Tigran Djents hard as hell!

For any of you metalheads out there, the guitarist, bassist and drummer (right hand side) are from the isreali band Distorted Harmony, highly recommended. The drummer, Yogev, also has a YT channel breaking down drumming - he's a cool guy. Then there's also MARO singing, who I thought was an established artist by then and has pieces with Jacob Collier among others. And then I probably only haven't stumbled upon the other musicians but the amount of talent in this single arrangement is quite something. Berklee really is the top music school I guess.

This is by far one of the best compositions I've heard for the last 20 years, Thank you great Tigran, all the great musicians, and all the cast for creating this masterpiece!

This is without a doubt one of the most creative pieces of music I’ve ever heard, I’m LIVING for this drum set up!

Is that MARO singing? The link we needed between Jacob and tigran

Such a jam. This song never tires. This and several other works by Tigran have been on my daughter's playlist since she was born. Now that she's a bit older, whenever we let her pick on youtube, she brings us to either Tigran Hamasyan, Jacob Collier, or Snarky Puppy.

Almost didn't watch, but so glad I did. Awesome! Mirror drummers a 6:40 sharing stick for roll is just sick!

That metal feel though.... Just awesome.

Wonderful to hear Berklee chorus sing Armenian! This was amazing!

Amo con todo mi corazón esta pieza, no puedo expresar con palabras lo que me produce, solo decirle felicitaciones por traer algo tan divino a esta tierra.

6:36 " I got you bro"

So exited for his next album Tigran is my favourite musician hands down

Its so amazing that every musician seems to be enjoying the hell out of themselves

The heaviest Jazz in the world

God... This is the pure definition of talent

It’s like heaven for every musician here, they enjoy every millisecond , me too Thank you Tigran and everyone who made this fantastic music . you are the best

This piece of music feels like it is truly the product of all the music that came before it, like all the history of music led to this. Stunning, and I can't wait to hear more things like this

Tosin Abasi of Animals as Leaders (amazing metal instrumental band) took over SiriusXM's Liquid Metal for a half hour, playing some of his faves. This was one of them. My reaction "What the hell was that?". In the best possible way, had the same reaction when hearing Animals as Leaders the first time on that channel. Quite amazing!

The evolution of music takes another giant step forward. Genius.

It's so cool seeing the rhythm section grimace just trying to count the tuplets and the sense of achievement when they nail it

Adam Neely listed him as one of the most infulencial pianists right now

OMG this is the most amazing song i`ve ever listened to. like 100 out of 10! it repeats over and over and over on my playlist

This is the best composition I've heard since discovering Stravinsky!

Its a mix of what I enjoy the most in music. Just the best song ever, I dont even have the words to describe it.

I like how at times Mr. Hamasyan seems like he's possessed while playing the piano. My favorite pianist without a doubt.

this is best music I've ever heard, not to say all other music is lesser, it is not, yet the absolute command, mastery,dynamics,sheer musicality, the interplay, the visual feast, the glory thank you

Omg. What an amazing performance. So many cultures gathered in one place.

Do you realize how much people always enjoy playing with him?

No he visto pianista contemporáneo con tantas influencias musicales y virtuosismo como este tío! Bravo !

This piece blows me away. Jazz, armenian folk, METAL, with irregular tempos. AND multiple vocalist and an....auctioneer?

I love to hear Tigran's mumbling each time he is concentrated on the piano

If anyone is curious, or wanting to hear more of Tigran's in the same vein, the ending 'riff' @5:45 and again @7:00 is the prominent groove/riff in Tigran's song 'Red Hail' on his album 'Red Hail'. The chord progressions heard around 1:57 and throughout the middle of the track also sound very familiar to those heard in 'The Grid/Out of the Grid' and other songs on Mockroot. I can't get enough of his more groovy stuff like this, if anyone has any recommendations similar to this I would love to hear them also :)

I didn't know music could get this good. I've just discovered Tigran, whoa. WHOA!

Talk about hearing music that feels completely new and different! I am so impressed with the vitality, variety and interest of this music. This area of the world produces some incredible music. A big shout out to Berklee too for their open mind to all kinds of music and their openness in general in educating people to be musicians in the deepest, most meaningful ways. The school is growing and changing and the students along with it. Forget the arrogance of some of these rigid music conservatories. Berklee is leading the way to something really special and new

i've watched this at least 20 times

Found myself coming back to this every time. Amazing.

This is the best piece of the "I don't even know any more" genre

I don't know how to express my emotions and feelings. This is insane ~

When I saw Yogev Gabay on drums I was so happy. He introduced me to Tigran with his cover of Out Of the Grid

Incrível, belíssimo. Suave, pesado, poético e agressivo. Tigran é um gênio a nível de Beethoven, Debussy, Mozart e Bach. Ainda consegue ser melhor, pois mistura vários ritmos, tendências e estilos no jazz, como o heavy metal.

I'm so proud, that the genius Tigran Hamasyan is Armenian!

I am speechless. Watched it five times in a row - and counting. Thank you.

the bassist is the guy that played on the Meme Medley back in 2011, figured that just now. It's cool to see how good he got!

its a 2021 and still my favorite .. when u make a metalhead banging his head on this legendary music you have to know you nailed it guys

Beautiful! What a brave bunch of cats, coming up with the extraordinary arrangement.. Tigran is the man

An incredible musician, an amazing jazz song. I hope Mr. Hamasyan comes to Turkey for a concert once again. Sending warm greetings and a message of peace from Turkey ❤

This is actually heavy af.

The quintuplets over the vocals is so mind-stretching

Holy shit...? What did I just hear? What. I'm still speechless.

The beauty of this composition brought tears to my eyes. Wonderful 🙏🏻👌🏻

Tigran is a remarkable musician and composer. I am happy to be his contemporary and compatriot.

Keep watching sins 3 months .. high level of music .. thanks for that .. from Algeria 🇩🇿🇩🇿🇩🇿

One more reason to enjoy life, thank you from my hapiness.

Of course I enjoyed his last 3 albums but I miss this mind-blowing Red Hail-spirit soooo much. I would love to hear more music in the style of Mockroot and Red Hail
