One critic suggests that he is "one of the few drummers to convincingly meld the funky and the cerebral" [1].

 Can
Of course, this doesn't stop Jaki from having his own special spotlight, either; all the while holding together the groove of the whole, he gets in some terrific polyrhythmic passages starting around the 5:00 mark and going on for a couple of minutes, proving that he could be even more than the world's best metronome.
This reduction in Jaki's and Damo's roles doesn't really lead to a corresponding increase in the importance of any of the other band members individually, though (maybe Schmidt could be said to be boosted, though his presence is as much in atmosphere as in anything else).
Jaki isn't his former beast self, and he's got some electronic augmentation, but heck, he had some of that in the 70's, and he doesn't sound like a hack, so he's fine.

The German quartet of bassist/editor Holger Czukay, drummer Jaki Liebezeit, guitarist Michael Karoli and keyboardist Irmin Schmidt initially existed from 1969 to 1978, augmented for a while by singers from America (Malcolm Mooney) and Japan (Damo Suzuki).
Liebezeit picks up the thread --- virtually the only subject on which he's willing to utter more than five words in a row, and he talks for a good five minutes.
That's where Jaki developed this music where the ground tone is the drum, the center of the harmonic.

 Nonplace - Secret Rhythms 2
Friedman and Liebezeit, sharing a mutual interest in traveling as well as all things on- and off-beat, try to unearth those natural born grooves and, through their own music, bring it to a bigger audience.
Liebezeit provides the acoustic beat backbone, his drumming stark and seemingly simplistic and, as always, easy to identify.
That said however deeper listening is rewarded as the strength of Liebezeit’s playing and Freidman’s ability to lay down solid core textures and melodies is gradually revealed, hidden beneath a subtlety seldom found on modern recordings.

 Can (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Can was a musical group formed in West Germany in 1968, working within the scene that music critics dubbed "krautrock", with a style grounded in the garage rock of bands such as The Velvet Underground and world music as studied by professionals in ethnomusicology.
Liebezeit subsequently suggested the backronym "communism, anarchism, nihilism" for the band's name.
In 1999 the four core members of Can, Michael Karoli, Jaki Liebezeit, Irmin Schmidt and Holger Czukay, performed live at the same show, although playing seperately with their current solo projects (Sofortkontakt, Club Off Chaos, Kumo and U-She respectively).

In staunch contrast to the wired "Pinch" which opened up their last album, the title track that begins this effort is like walking along a beach with waves of liquid trazodone lapping under your feet.
Sedated Damo Suzuki croons muffled vocals and Jaki Liebezeit provides a gentle, calypso shuffle sliding against a mincing generator rhythm and Schmidt's barely audible polyphonic synths.
No, Can have not turned into the Beach Boys; Jaki Liebezeit's circular rhythms and Holger Czukay's ping pong bass lines are still present, but the sense of frenzy heard on previous albums such as Tago Mago has been muted.

 Burnt Friedman & Jaki Liebezeit: Secret Rhythms 2 - PopMatters Music Review
It’s a common phenomenon for musicians to switch from rock to jazz as their preferred mode of expression, most frequently occurring as talented players seek extended challenges to their virtuosity as they grow older—or become bored with the perceived limitations of rock music.
Former Can drummer Jaki Liebezeit, however, represents the rarer scenario; after recording some free-leaning jazz dates in mid-1960s Germany, he grew tired of the music’s lack of form and went on to join Can, with whom he created some of the most forward-thinking rock music of the entire 1970s.
Liebezeit’s worldview hasn’t changed much in the ensuing years, if Secret Rhythms 2, a co-led collaboration with electronic artist Burnt Friedman, is any indication.

 BURNT FRIEDMAN & JAKI LIEBEZEIT Secret Rhythms 2
Since the break up of legendary experimental rock band Can in 1978, Jaki Liebezeit the band’s drummer and rhythmic engine house, has been involved in a huge number of projects, working with artists as diverse as Brian Eno, Depeche Mode and Primal Scream.
Since then however Liebezeit has found another kindred spirit in the shape of electronic jazzer, and head of Nonplace Records, Burnt Friedman with whom he released the Secret Rhythms album in 2002.
Enjoying the pun, Liebezeit and Friedman thus refer to the 4/4 bar as a “fearer”.

 * Dusted Reviews - Burnt Friedman and Jaki Liebezeit *
Jaki Liebezeit played drums in the German rock band Can, whose music was loud, wild and unpredictable.
To be fair, I'm not really sure Liebezeit and Friedman were aiming to make the listener feel any sort of emotion, except maybe contentment.
If you're hosting a cocktail party at a modern art museum, this would be a perfect record to play as background music—and I say that without sarcasm, because this album is expertly executed.

Throughout their career, Can's line-up was fluid, featuring several different vocalists over the years; the core band members remained keyboardist Irmin Schmidt, drummer Jaki Leibezeit, guitarist Michael Karoli, and keyboardist Holger Czukay.
David Johnson's only involvement is that of a sound technician; he leaves the band by the end of 1968.

 Holger Czukay - Biography - AOL Music
Under the tutelage of avant-garde composer Karlheinz Stockhausen, Czukay continued to refine his ideas, and soon became a teacher himself; through student Michael Karoli, he gained his first exposure to performers like the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and the Velvet Underground.
After picking up the bass, Czukay teamed with Karoli, fellow Stockhausen protege Irmin Schmidt, drummer Jaki Liebezeit and American-born vocalist Malcolm Mooney, and in early 1968 the group Inner Space was formed.
Quickly renamed Can, in 1969 they released their debut Monster Movie, the first in a series of visionary albums establishing the band as one of the truly seminal artists of the period.

 Profiel: Crossing Border
Gitaarleraar Czukay betrok zijn jonge leerling Michael Karoli bij het complot en schakelde zelf over op basgitaar, omdat de weinige noten waarmee hij vond dat een bassist kan volstaan, hem in de gelegenheid zouden stellen zich intensief met de geluidstechnische kant van de muziek bezig te houden.
De ervaren freejazz-drummer Jaki Liebzeit zocht naar nieuwe uitdagingen en vond die bij Can nadat een toehoorder hem in een visionair moment van helderheid had ingefluisterd dat hij,,monotoner moest gaan spelen''.
Liebezeit ontwikkelde zich tot een onvermoeibare menselijke drummachine, die zijn liefde voor Afrikaanse muziek liet doorklinken in bezwerende ritmepartijen.

 Rock & Pop: NEW RELEASES: Jah Wobble, Jaki Liebezeit, Philip Jeck Independent, The (London) - Find Articles
Live in Leuven is, in effect, an extension of those collaborations, with turntablist Philip Jeck an able substitute for Czukay and Edge - less demonstrative than the latter, maybe, but with a wider range of sonic strategies at his disposal.
As a turntable artist, Jeck is like a more laid-back, minimalist DJ Shadow, not so much obsessed with the rhythmic possibilities of scratching as with creating absorbing textures.
Here, he opens the piece with a lowering orchestral chord sequence, with echoing fragments of strings, vinyl static crackle, music-box chimes, and little zippy noises of uncertain provenance whipped to the consistency of mist, before Wobble and Liebezeit join in about seven minutes in, setting up a curious push/pull rhythmic figure over Jeck's shifting sound-bed.
