you can clearly hear the influence on the breaking the habit. and yeah after mike showed his richard d james records i be like "HAHA I FUCKING KNEW IT!"
One of the things I adore about this guy that even though yes, he has merch stuff and sponsors and such (and why shouldn't he), he is still the real deal. You can see it here too. An honest, genuine soul, bless his big heart.
Agreeing so much. I was 14 when I got Hybrid Theory on cassette tape, and here I am, in my thirties, still with them. I'm amazed by this ability of his: no matter what is the situation, he makes art out of it, in such a natural way. Hard rock album, electric smash fest, sock puppets, stop-motion videos, art shows, absolutely anything. Somehow what he does helps the souls we carry connect to each other. That came out weird, but I hope it's understandable :)
Guys trust me HE IS GENUINE. I meant him and the band in 2015. You talk to him for 5 mins and you get a sense of comfortably and almost like you know him personally.
Even though I've had that impression always, it's nice to see confirmation from someone who actually had the pleasure to meet them. Warms my heart to know that he IS the real deal. Thanks for sharing!
I really want to meet him one day before I die. I want to tell him how much he means to me and how he made my life 10 times better by literally just existing.
The twinkle in Mike's eyes when he's talking about his favorite albums and about "the band" is priceless. Great, real, and natural session right here. Thanks for sharing.
Mike Shinoda's my idol because of his odd tastes. He's been my favorite since 2005 when he went solo with some of his projects. What's even cooler is the way his tastes inspire him and the way people assume that his music style would be closer to metal, but it's genuinely not.
It's like food or beer, life is boring if you limit your diet. Different moods, different musics. This is another downside to subscription/digital download; you used to be able to walk into someone's living room, check out their LP collection and you'd know what kind of person they were in a minute.
YES! I never understood the bitching about how nothing they make compares to Hybrid Theory. There would be no genuineness left in them if they kept repeating the same stuff until eternity. Drawbar, In my remains, Wretches and Kings...every album is packed with fucking treasures and I think this mindset is the thing that made that possible. It's such a relief to know that there are people out there who think like you.
It’s funny how so many people hate on LP newer stuff and hate that they evolved so much ... c’mon it’s been like over 20 yrs since they’ve listen to them for the first time and they expect them to sound the same 🤦🏻♂️ I’m guessing those are the same people who hate on bands that don’t change their and and don’t evolve at all ... and bitch that they’re tired of listening to the same thing album after album.... 🤦🏻♂️
Mike is my idol since I remember being an artist, beatmaker and rapper. And a big coincidence is "The Shape of Punk to Come" by Refused is one of my favorite albums ever! I recently bough it on CD :P
“Is that cool?” My heart ♥️☺️ There’s zero ego with Mike... add his passionate explanations for what each record means to him & his reverence for these artists... adorable, humble & engaging.
It’s kinda sad to see him sitting there alone doing an “interview” because I got used to seeing him do interviews with Chester... But I really like his music even though I normally don’t like rap but probably because I can relate to what he sings about... and he just seem like a very kind and friendly person
There are videos on TH-cam of Linkin park in their early years in which Joe mentions Aphex Twin as an influence (I believe the making of the one step closer video is one of them, and the other is one of the vids with the Hybrid Theory rehearsals). Its always been the one element that makes their early work so special to me. It was never about how the songs were so much heavier and whatnot. To me, it was the atmosphere that was captured in the early Linkin Park songs that made them stand out, and if you pay attention to the sounds in those songs, thats straight up AFX style. It's cool to hear Mike talk about this stuff, it is an important part of Linkin Parks sound that seems to get overlooked a lot.
Sad that there's a lot of people who don't know who Mike is! He's a huge influence of mine for art! I always recognized him as the mastermind of Linkin Park and his respect for rap is second to none. A lot of depth to him and I'll always appreciate that. Mike and Chester were two sides of a coin. I hope he gets more fans!
I know they obviously are not the very top of music, but yes, they definitely mean a lot of shit to me, because somehow their music always touches my heart. I love many that are in some aspects better, but none of those reach my soul the way Linkin Park does. So I'm really thankful for your comment, that's such an amazing approach to things you may not like, but understand that others do. Thanks
I've seen him on his show in Vienna a month ago. Wouldn't say he was fully okay, got quite emotional during some songs (like Heavy...), but I had the impression that both the album and the tour are his way of healing. Evening was an emotional roller-coaster for him&us all - and he's made such a great show, too! Good taste, good man, kind soul.
Bring tissues though. If it's gonna be the way it was in Europe, you'll have a precious, meaningful evening filled with fun and utter heartbreak. I mean that in the best possible way. One minute you all gonna play with your sock puppets, then bawl like there's no tomorrow while singing Chester's part in Roads Untraveled.
@@evamoor2377 thank you soldier. I cant wait to meet Mike to. Respectfully I'll shake his hand when I want to just give him the biggest hug ever. He is awesome in every way. I am ready for anything, just as he and Chester has taught us to be. This will be one of the most important days in my life. I was never able to see LP live. I'm ready for this.
I'm going to see him in San Francisco in early November. Looking forward to it. Been watching videos of his European tour and have loved what I've been seeing, especially in Cologne (Koln). I saw him in Los Angeles in May at Identity LA, which was really good, but as the tour has progressed, he's gotten more comfortable being on stage, and more confident as well. His journey is our journey, and I so appreciate it.
RIP Chester - loved him! Helped me through a lot. Mike looks good but his eyes still tell a story of inner sadness and asking for help. Take care Mike xx♥️
this has been an education. mike is such a geek, man i wish he could just tell me about all these stuff and I'd be listening to him for days. not in a creepy way but you know what i mean.
It very interesting to see where they got their influences from when recording Hybrid Theory. Little does he probably know that many of us Linkin Park heads admire his music the way he does with those artists. Hybrid Theory is an album that has committed to the soundtrack of my life for being so versatile, loud, aggressive etc... Mike is utterly talented and humble asf
dude, that never-ending beat thing is INSANE. i never thought about not spiraling a needle groove and instead just having a few hundred grooves and therefore a few hundred beats. wow. mind blown.
I'm not sure he is doing all that well. You can see it in his eyes there's still a profound sadness and I recently saw one of his live concerts where he asked the audience to sing Chester's part when he performed In The End and he looked in pain, desperately trying to hold back the tears. I don't think he will ever be whole again.
Same feeling here...there's a hollowness to his eyes that wasn't there before. This is going to stay with him/them - but it's understandable, isn't it. Losing a loved one like that tears a hole in you that won't ever mend. I was on his Vienna gig a month ago and felt like he was putting up a smile sometimes because he wanted to feel good (or wanted us to feel good), not because he actually had a great time. In other parts of the show, we had so much fun. His concert is like an emotional roller-coaster, coming from a genuine, great, pretty much still hurting guy. I admire his bravery in exposing himself this way and hope it helps him heal.
I really do think Mike feels a lot of survivor's guilt. He knew Chester had his demons and he helped him create music that helped him and millions of others, including myself, but ultimately, it just wasn't enough. I can't begin to imagine what that must feel like, that you couldn't help someone so close to you from taking their lives. It's easy for us to say that Mike should be proud of how much he helped Chester while he was here and that without him, Chester might have died years ago, but I doubt that this is much of a consolation for Mike. Hopefully with time he will be able to look back and see that he helped Chester achieve so much in his short time in this world.
VB MUTT I think Brad or Mike once mentioned how they wanted to do a song with Björk (for Reanimation I think) never happened but that shit would've been cool.
Because "fan" is such a strong word for you? Maybe you liked one of her songs or tried listening to her music? If you haven't tried listening to her music, I think you should.
Love this guy ... I seen him at the Palladium in Hollywood last month .. it was like hanging out wit one of your best friends ... too much fun ❤️ he’s one of those friends that bring so much great music to the table ... and if it wasn’t for him your taste in music wouldn’t be as great ... God bless him ❤️
Seriously the best artist I’ve ever known, listened to him since I can remember always thought he was such a cool guy , hope I get to meet him one day, so sad Chester couldn’t be here to see how his career has progressed, he would be so proud of him as we all are 👍
Thanks for showing some of your early influences Mike. It's really cool to step back into the past and see the sort of things that weren't on the radio that were underrated gems.
Is nice to see that Mikes loves the RDJ album. You can hear that chopping thing on track like Cure For The Itch and Session, with a little bit of Dj Shadow sound-wise... some hidden gems on LP discography
I have most of those battle records he mentioned... rectangle, swamp, qbert, revolution...all were innovators for the new generation like Richie Rufftone, DJ woody, DJ freddy "swiftstyle" Garcia, DJ idea, Kodak visuals, DJ Lok and there are many more.
And this right here is why I honestly love those first three linkin park albums to death. It was just a band doing their own thing and just having fun with it. And thats really how music should be approached.
It's meant to simulate a young mod dude yaddering on amphetamines, or so I've heard. Great song, a genuinely ahead of its time sound-of-punk-to-come. Strange that they never really did anything else similar...
If you want to include My Generation, you might try CHARLIE FEATHERS Can't Hardly Stand It or THE BRAVES woodpecker rock. Quite a bit of old rockabilly come to think of it.
My Generation is definitely not the first example of stuttering being used in vocal delivery in music. Like Beau Williamson pointed out, there are examples of it in rockabilly (and also blues) dating back well before The Who even existed.
He didnt mean the stutter itself but the computerization of it into millisecond clips that create the trills we all used to think was a mr hahn clean record skip but knowing this hes actually revealed a bit about your favorite moments in these songs. I cant even say he was saying that the artist he chose was the first ever. But the first he had found and enjoyed and that in his opinion inspired the generation of keeping composers using the effect in a final product. Musoc that was recorded live to via taped producion sessions wouldnt have been able to use these sounds.
In 90's I was listening specially to the Tunisian & Egyptian music, after that I discovered quickly Metallica and became fan, but when I discovered XERO (Linkinpark) I knew that this is the band I love. Rock world is fascinating, but hell I love the electronic music. The rap songs are the less appreciated ones, but my favorite rap songs were an LP - Fort minor songs 👏
No way! Yesterday I watched a video with John Davis and was curious to check whether there is any video with LP members here, but there was none. And here it comes today! What a coincidence! :O
Before my mom bought me the first linkin park album I was in to only pop as a kid and linkin park changed everything for me. I listen to everything but pop now but mainly New (not nu) metal and post hardcore. Without linkin park I fear where I be today musically Lol.
Of whom - Linkin Park? Do you think that people who listened to LP when they first came out (e.g. teenagers raised with the mainstream platform) actually knew who Aphex Twin was? Or do you Really think that electronic music enthusiasts of the 90s (Aphex Twin fans in particular) would really pay attention to a mainstream cashcow - no matter if the music had actual value? I dont doubt that there were exceptions, but I dont think there is a strong case for the masses... Though, I might be wrong...
@@al112v4 We (or most of us) all are influenced by many artists in many different ways, yet All of the influences Dont necessarily make it into our lives, just as Not in an artists sound palette imo, and based on what Ive listened to from LP, my Original Point was that I Couldnt have told you that Mike was influenced by Aphex Twin, because there has been No Strong indication of Nods towards him, and no - I dont consider using samples, glitchy noises, etc. as "That most Definitely was inspired by Aphex!"

So much respect for him and his kind soul.
Lol yeah.. the guy who brought out an EP 3 months after Chester died
Linkin Park were influenced by Aphex Twin, you learn something new every day.
I mean have you listened to their music? Of course they were!
Many other artists/bands.
you can clearly hear the influence on the breaking the habit. and yeah after mike showed his richard d james records i be like "HAHA I FUCKING KNEW IT!"
He’s like you know open minded unlike most elitist

One of the things I adore about this guy that even though yes, he has merch stuff and sponsors and such (and why shouldn't he), he is still the real deal. You can see it here too. An honest, genuine soul, bless his big heart.
He does seem cool, but he also seems like an amazing Fred Armisen character.
Brie he called the cops on Sublime with Rome for smoking weed in their dressing room a few years back.

‘Was that cool’?. Love him so much. Born to make art and music, I’m a LP fan since 2000 and LOVE the Post Traumatic album.

I don't even have a record player and now I wanna buy like, everything on vinyl :)
I don't own one either (yet) :-D
Got a Fort Minot tat. Live Mike. Didn't know he dropped another album!

Mike has got to be one of the most genuine human beings on earth.
It’s cool to hear Mike’s level of excitement about what he considers classics, considering he was part of a classic.
One of the better "What's In My Bag" episodes. The guy is humble and so damn appreciative of music as a whole.
Never been the biggest Linkin Park fan but impressed by his taste, gotta say
Agreed, don't know much about Linkin but this was a tasty little selection.
He is a music nerd and that's why they are so versatile musically.
Mike Shinoda's my idol because of his odd tastes. He's been my favorite since 2005 when he went solo with some of his projects. What's even cooler is the way his tastes inspire him and the way people assume that his music style would be closer to metal, but it's genuinely not.
Whether you like Linkin Park or not, I think we can all still respect Chester Bennington's passing. RIP Chester Bennington.
A great "Musician" ALWAYS appreciates and respects a wide variety of music in ALL GENRES! That's how bands evolve....🎶

He didnt mean the stutter itself but the computerization of it into millisecond clips that create the trills we all used to think was a mr hahn clean record skip but knowing this hes actually revealed a bit about your favorite moments in these songs. I cant even say he was saying that the artist he chose was the first ever. But the first he had found and enjoyed and that in his opinion inspired the generation of keeping composers using the effect in a final product. Musoc that was recorded live to via taped producion sessions wouldnt have been able to use these sounds.
Fortminor changed my life. Thanks Mike and Sounds of Beyond
In 90's I was listening specially to the Tunisian & Egyptian music, after that I discovered quickly Metallica and became fan, but when I discovered XERO (Linkinpark) I knew that this is the band I love. Rock world is fascinating, but hell I love the electronic music. The rap songs are the less appreciated ones, but my favorite rap songs were an LP - Fort minor songs 👏
Seems like a nice guy

totally digging his taste, that's why i still listen to a lot of nu-metal..
That bjork album was a master piece
LOVED all of his picks,. just gem after gem
I Love You're Music Mike Shinoda! and Linkin Park Also ^_^
MIKE!!! 😃😃😃
Holy Shinoda
That was cool i haven't felt a nostalgia for break beats in a long time.
I love Mike so much
No way! Yesterday I watched a video with John Davis and was curious to check whether there is any video with LP members here, but there was none.
And here it comes today!
What a coincidence! :O
not a LP fan myself but respect for picking the Richard D James album
Before my mom bought me the first linkin park album I was in to only pop as a kid and linkin park changed everything for me. I listen to everything but pop now but mainly New (not nu) metal and post hardcore. Without linkin park I fear where I be today musically Lol.
Awesome man! Loved Bjork appearing in the chosen lot of vinyls!
I love him hes amazing!!
Huh - Aphex being an influence on LP - who would have thought?
Maybe true fans?
Of whom - Linkin Park? Do you think that people who listened to LP when they first came out (e.g. teenagers raised with the mainstream platform) actually knew who Aphex Twin was?
Or do you Really think that electronic music enthusiasts of the 90s (Aphex Twin fans in particular) would really pay attention to a mainstream cashcow - no matter if the music had actual value?
I dont doubt that there were exceptions, but I dont think there is a strong case for the masses...
Though, I might be wrong...
He has been influenced by many artists, well known and not so well known. I knew who Aphex Twin was before listening to Mike here though lol
@@19RaxR91 duda act like Apex wasn't running on mtv.
you not that sepcial man
@@al112v4 We (or most of us) all are influenced by many artists in many different ways, yet All of the influences Dont necessarily make it into our lives, just as Not in an artists sound palette imo, and based on what Ive listened to from LP, my Original Point was that I Couldnt have told you that Mike was influenced by Aphex Twin, because there has been No Strong indication of Nods towards him, and no - I dont consider using samples, glitchy noises, etc. as "That most Definitely was inspired by Aphex!"
Pharcyde - Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde best album ever
