I'm 61 now and keep coming back here to make sure people are still listening to proper music ..they are🙏

[blueberry]

Not only an amazing artist, Jon Hopkins is a wonderful man. A year ago I wrote to him how much his music helped me in time when I divorced.. especially when I was returning my daughters to my ex.. I was driving listening to his Immunity album and many times I had tears in my eyes. Well, he replied to me saying that he is thankful for my words and the impact his music had on me.. Not many would do something like that. He is someone with a deep heart and soul, and that is obvious in his music.

One of those very tracks you never get tired of listening to

[PromptStreamer]

This music video is all feeling, all flow, all sensory, all coherence, no commercialism, no frills, no exaggeration, no false motives. So pure it grows on you.

[AVevers]

It's mildly terrifying that this beauty is 11 years old (as of 05.07.24). Celebrate everything, while you can.

[robaky]

One of the best things I've ever heard. Electronic music at its best.

[mrgiove]

Noticed how the first kicks that the skater do are in sinc with the beat

[AudioPervert]

Bassline of the decade ! constantly evolves, climbs, continues on and on and on .... massive !

[MrPjotry]

Every once in a while, I forget about that song for a few months. Then I rediscover it, and I'm having a blast again. Simply amazing.

[yearago]

So it's been 7 years, anyone heard anything else even remotely as good as this?

[messengerpdx]

the beginning of the video... where the skateboarder appears out of nowhere jumping over the fence and skates into the jon hopkins grooves…phenomenal. one of the best video + music syncs ever. 

[fudgecool]

Such a fresh perspective on electronic music. The song moves seamlessly from Eno-esque ambience to a colossal techno beast. Hopkins has produced perhaps the most subtle yet forceful pieces of music I have heard in years.

[PowllMorgan]

The snare is love, the snare is life.

[Hashpotato]

the silhouette of him against the backdrop of palm trees and pink sky is beautiful stuff. absolute classic tune.

[paragthakur]

this song is timeless, 5 years since i discovered this one and still never gets old

[aubertgendron]

Jon hopkins + Moderat = best live performance

[TheColossalBlanket]

I don't normally go in for quotes but watching this video with that music I finally truly understood Picaso's quote 'We all know art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realise the truth.'

[pinkbonde]

It's like being water...flowing ...life in front and behind... but the present soo present.. wonderful!!

[yazanabdoush]

I discovered this tune back in 2014. It had a massive impact on me. I kept it on replay for days and weeks, and my taste in music has changed ever since. This tune has really shaped who I am now!

[resideas]

this music is soul meditation... i can find myself
