IN COLOUR WILL UNDOUBTEDLY HIT

Michael Shirley

Holy SHIT. Do some The xx!!!!!!!!! The first 2 albums….Please.

Waseem Curry

also would suggest Rüfüs du Sol or Justice for your next electronic listening! both have really engaging production and would be a good bridge if you're trying to explore the genres more!

zabratser

just saw his show in chicago last night and was blown away. if you can make it to his tour date near you please go! i've been to a number of different concerts, many in the electronic genres, and I was blown away by jamie xx. the production and stage design and visuals were so captivating. i almost don't even want to call it a "concert" it was so unique. such a special show, would love to hear your thoughts if you can make it!! <3

zabratser

Hi! Loved the difference in style on this one. If you're looking for some good electronic music, with a similar vibe to Jamie xx. I suggest: The Road To Hell ls Paved With Good Intentions from Vegyn ! Have fun!!

Mayou

would love to see a fred again reaction!! Actual Life or USB 🙌🙌

haley 🧸

Bonobo especially with Kevin’s affinity for tycho

Connor Gallinetti

PLEASE listen to his single 'Idontknow' when you guys react to In Colour. Kevin will absolutely love it

abhishek

Kevin already reacted to Kaytranada one in solo on stream, you got the vidéo as well on the Patreon !

Raphaël

Btw you guys will love Fred again new stuff

Mariana Ronquillo

One of my new year goals is to learn how to play the guitar since I’ve never been able to play an instrument before, and also retake my French lessons!!

Mariana Ronquillo

oh man u guys just opened a can of worms by getting into electronic. need to see a fred again or rufus du sol reaction!

Luke Bredeweg

So happy you listened to this! Jamie xx is a legend in the UKG scene. You should absolutely checkout some of the popular Fred again.. Albums like actual life or ten days, I feel like it could be very interesting for y'all! The electronic scene in the UK is popping off again right now. Also Overmono, Barry Can't Swim and recent music by Four Tet are worth pointing out

Noah Bührer

Two other recent electronic albums you guys would benefit from reacting to: KAYTRANADA - Timeless James Blake - Playing Robots in to Heaven The kaytra one is full off massive features and has great replay value the Blake record has a lot of the ambient techno you two were digging on this one

Tom Stoneman

Pleeeeeease do a chemical brothers album xoxox

PBMC

You guys HAVE to listen to Fred Again!!!

Jon Studs

Floating points is awesome

Stephen Rodriguez

Agreed, that album is accessible and rocks

Stephen Rodriguez

Loved this video and had a lot of fun with this one. I love this type of electronic music, definitely recommend avalanches (wildflower has great features and is more hiphop oriented), four tet, bonobo, Fred again, flying lotus( you’re dead!) and others.

Stephen Rodriguez

Happy new year to you guys! Since Kevin loved this record I would highly recommend Jamie’s first album, in Colour. It’s not as club focused as this but it is an EXPERIENCE. I think Kevin would like it as well. Also since there’s an electronic collection now I definitely would recommend digitalism’s albums “idealism” and “I love you dude” those are some great bloghouse records.

Pastaboy71

Hoping this has inspired you guys to react to the Fred again discography 🤞🏾

Henry Sawyer

Yes!!

Nathan Angelo Balingit

Heyyyyyyy friends!! Love that you listened to this album, it's not usually my genre but I ended up seeing Jamie xx at Pitchfork Music Fest in Chicago summer 2024 ... and immediately fell in love with this album. I'm seeing him again on 17jan and I'm PUMPED!!! PS: No new years resolutions ... just manifesting an exciting Beyoncé update (she has teased something coming on 14jan, but we don't know what it will be) !!!

Matthew S. • @themegamega

Yall need to get on squid game season 2 if you haven’t already it’s so GOOD also happy Season 3 comes out this year so we don’t have another 2-3 year wait

XAyeItsDuck

this was a welcome surprise for the new year! some great sounds man, and perfect sampling going on, hoping to see this guy at the next festival i go to! since there’s an electronic collection now, you should add Crystal Castles to that list! Kevin would be shitting in his socks!

Ben Dillon

IMO Jamie xx is one of the biggest in the scene right now. He’s been headlining many festivals for his ability to absolutely rip it on the stage, incorporating different genres into his sets and playing songs you didn’t know you wanted to hear. I’ve seen him 5 times now and it’s different every time — he excels in finding unique/niche songs to masterfully transition into his records (in which folks should listen to from a venue speaker system). Feels like Jamie has such a unique soundscape with his production??? It’s giving organized chaos (see “idontknow” or “KILL DEM”) but also great sampling of vocals. Fun fact: he helped produce “Ivy” by Frank Ocean and “RISE!” by Tyler, the Creator! If he’s coming to town, I’d give him a shot, you won’t stop dancing! Hearing Breather live is chef’s kiss Other recommendations for iconic artists, all with different energies: Against All Logic - 2012-2017 Burial - Untrue Four Tet - Three, Sixteen Oceans Vegyn - Only Diamonds Cut Diamonds Floating Points - Cascade Skrillex - Quest for Fire KAYTRANADA - BUBBA Flume - Flume, Skins

jessie

I’d looovvveee to see a reaction to ‘Kala’ - M.I.A 🤝🏾

VibeWithDal

I’ll also vouch for: - Odesza - Fred Again - Zhu (Generationwhy)

SoupyTurtle

You don’t really how excited that you both are now exploring the electronic genre. When I got into EDM in highschool I couldn’t quite place what drew me to electronica. And looking back, it was always because of the TEXTURES. Would love to see a reaction of Flume’s debut album, the artist that really got me hooked in the first place.

SoupyTurtle

Loved this reaction, this was such a fun album to listen to upon release and a great introduction to electronic music outside of Daft Punk. It's time for y'all to listen to Nurture by Porter Robinson. A hopeful electronic pop album about an artists 7 year struggle to follow up their ground breaking debut. Some of the best electronic pop of the 2020s thus far. A great blend of amazing production and heartfelt and heartbreaking lyrics. I think a lot of it will resonate with Kevin!

wallace prower

Have you heard the newest Tycho album? Actually amazing

Logan

love seeing you guys do electronic stuff :D

Kram Bondar

You guys rock so hard. This was such a good way to start the year

Bryce Hendrickson

You guys have to listen to avalanches Sinnce I left you or We Will Always Love You They use really great samples and it has the human quality that you all are talking about when it comes to electronic music. They feature Jamie XX on some songs and they also have a nasty feature from Denzel curry that rocks so hard It might make Kevin Cry

Bryce Hendrickson

Highly recommend The Batman, keeps the same gritty feeling of the show without feeling like a superhero movie. Robert Pattinson will blow your mind ✌️

Xavier

Would really love to see you guys react to Porter Robinson's discography. I think you'd really appreciate Nurture in particular.

Deen Tristan

That Nilüfer Yanya record is such a flex. If Kevin hasn’t heard it please do a reaction. It’s so underrated.

Ethan Cook

This can only lead to something as great as like, a Flume album reaction. I can see it happening, Palaces I think it’s accessible enough for a blind listen.

Ethan Cook

Nicolas Jaar (particularly as Against All Logic) is a great suggestion, he has done production for FKA twigs, worked with Brian Eno, and has been sampled by The Weeknd. He makes something like house music except with a lot more experimental of an outlook. The sounds of the synths he uses are always so rich and complex that it sounds like he draws even from electroacoustic music. My favorite albums of his are: Space is only noise (2012) Textured electronic ambient pop 2012 - 2017 (2018, as against all logic) Luscious deep house 2017 - 2019 (2020, as against all logic) Industrial techno and house

Justin

So glad you mentioned Promises that album is a 10/10

Ian Sinclair Harris

I personally think 2012-2017 is slightly better but you really can’t go wrong with any of his work he is a master of sound design.

Ian Sinclair Harris

Against All Logic i didn't even bother suggesting because I thought it was too niche, but absolutely seconding. 2017 - 2019 (released in early 2020) is my album of the decade far. Calling it techno / house doesn't even feel appropriate. Anyone looking into it should make sure they hear it with the original first track (Fantasy, now removed from streaming).

Justin

'In Colour' is much more of a challenge, so smart to start with this one. But the first is also a better (different) album than this one, so, swings and roundabouts... Stoked you're going into EDM - so much to discover. You'll need this if we're ever meeting up in Berlin. 😂 much love

Jon Scanlon

plzzzz do in colour

Brawleylil

I think guys would like Fred Again a lot he makes similar music to this.

Alex Stevens

So glad you guys are getting into electronic music this is one of my favorites from last year. I would also check out his first solo album “In Colour” as well as the one with the late great Gill Scott-Heron. Other contemporary electronic/dance artists I would check out in no particular order:Four Tet (and his many associated names), Nicolas Jaar/Against All Logic, Burial, Caribou/Daphni,Flying Lotus. Honestly electronic/dance music is such a deep and interesting category of music I hope you guys fall down that rabbit hole some day.

Ian Sinclair Harris

Thank you for this info. I will most definitely be checking these out.

Joe

Ok now you have to listen to Porter Robinson's Nurture. And since you talked about Avalanches in the video but you definitely need to listen to their first album Since I Left You

Jamie Bekins

Yeeeeeeees! Please check out In Colour sometime. It’s even more brilliant! (Great moves Kev!)

Joe

If you want to react to more electronic music, I would suggest Jon Hopkins’ Singularity or Immunity!!

bruno

after y'all enjoyed this id love to hear you react to civilization by kero kero bonito, the last song was giving me similar vibes

Sam Panfil

Let's comment fred again r everyday until they post him

Jarrah Wren

Enjoyed seeing you try a new genre just like the original idea of rap and that's what its all about. Your dads comments at the end are spot on as someone who has listened to it for a while. I'd say your right on the edge of house here too which is why I liked it when it came out. (im no expert, just vibe wise). Would love to see more of this as it feels like you could have a "Black Seminole" moment of surprise with the genre which is my all time goated moment on the channel (That blew my balls right off). Cheers

Tyler

Yoooooo an electronic album?? Lfgggg

Chris Soleberry

OH YEAH, this is one of my fav albums of last year guys, loving that you guys checked that out

beatamina

Chief keef

Majore

This was my album of the year 100%!!!

Vf

YES

Colby Kultgen

Loving electronic reviews music from you guys❤️❤️

Vf

Highly recommend The Batman!

Owen

Quest for fire by skrillex is strong too 🧖😮‍💨

Pascal Ziehe

although it is electronic dance music, this is not EDM as we know it

Conor Deane

OMG TY FOR DOING THIS!

Julian

As mentioned a few times, if you love the vocal samples in this then you will absolutely love Fred Again, another UK producer/DJ

Tom Hepp

avalanches’ since i left you is insane if you aren’t familiar with it. the album is composed entirely of other records. hundreds of samples, 100 percent samples, and smooth transitions between every song. it is almost impossible to pause

griffinwayne

and skip the first two avalanches ? i could never

griffinwayne

i needed this so much thank you for doing one of my favorites i second floating points cascade

griffinwayne

breather is epic. what a way to start the year

Burntreon

Since you both found this enjoyable, Cascade by Floating Points is another house album from 2024, but more techno influenced. Floating Points is another English guy like Jamie. He got some attention in 2021 for his album Promises with the late Pharoah Sanders (prolific jazz saxaphonist) and the London Symphony Orchestra, which he composed. He had made abstract dance music before, drawing from IDM and techno. Promises beautifully combined minimalist jazz and ambient electronic music. Cascade was my album of the year bc it sounds like the wisdoms about timbre and texture he learned from Promises applied to his danciest and most accessible track ideas. As a reaction channel using headphones instead of speakers I am confident this album would be enjoyed especially.

Justin

Yeah!!! Fred's storytelling and connection his music has with the listener is truly addictive!! And his sampling of his actual friends and artists he loves is unmatched

Jarrah Wren

Time for the Avalanches - We Will always love you!

Je Ows

Agreed! Seems like they’d really enjoy him based on the comments during ‘the feeling I get from you’ song

Allie

If you like Tycho, you may also enjoy Lane 8 :)

Allie

Agreed

Jarrah Wren

Or just all of flumes discography

Jarrah Wren

The Avalanches seems like a cool place to start if they want more Australian music

Michael Kitto

Would love to see a reaction to Flume’s “Hi This Is Flume” if y’all want to keep going down the EDM road!

dielit

perfect segue to fred...again and more electronic stuff. also need lonerism still to complete the tame impala collection

Nino Marino

Start with actual life 1. Great album

Jarrah Wren

More electronic. Fred again... please

Jarrah Wren

Such a great album & awesome reaction, I'm glad you two vibed so hard with it. I've transitioned from the rap & rock/alternative world into the dance and electronic scene pretty seriously over the last few years. It's the primary genre I listen to these days and the popularity it's gained with my generation (Older Gen Z) means it's here to stay. I want to recommend some recent-ish albums that I think would both be popular on the channel and fun for you two to listen to: Justice - Hyperdrama (2024 release from legendary French duo... big Daft Punk vibes + two Tame Impala features) Skrillex - Quest for Fire (2023 album, complete sonic re-invention from a master, amazing production + beats) Swedish House Mafia - Paradise Again (2022 release from the GOATed trio, epic production + perfect melodies) Rufus Du Sol - Surrender (2021 release, the perfect melodic house music album, great if you liked the track "Breather") + and it's mandatory to listen to their most popular hit "Innerbloom" alongside it

Mike Donohue

please react to the XX albums! if you enjoy Jamie XX

T T T

Not a huge fan of this album but 'In Colour' is one of my all time favourites. I think you'd both like it

Callum

Recently got into this as a huge edm fan, can’t say I was expecting a reaction but so excited!!

dielit

WOAH I WASNT EXPECTING THIS IM SO EXCITED

Ryan

Great- now please do SINCE I LEFT YOU

Griffin Muir
