    I'm kinda bummed this is the last episode. I've loved watching the process of this record and getting to know the Project better. Thanks Zim, Dev, Beav, Dave, Ryan, Mike, and everyone else for making these videos.

    At 6:30, that scream....listening to it on record is intense enough. Watching it being tracked is another level. Just insane.

    @SevenENG 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I don't know why every time I have an existential crisis I end up watching and listening to Devin. Another mind that has a focus on so many things that it's hard to see how it all intertwines. Every time you listen to a track, you'll pick out something else you can no longer hear the song without. It is "just music". The man "just" happens to be a genius and he does it through raw emotion and persistence.

  • @tommeakin1732
    @tommeakin1732 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Idk why but this little series has been full of good feels for me. Like I genuinely feel pretty good after watching it. Dev seems to radiate good vibes.

      I only buy digital most of the time but I have to say I do miss sitting down and looking at the booklet of cd casea like the old days, reading the lyrics while listening, it's a lost art lol

  • @Cosminen
    @Cosminen 7 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    That ending. Human life in a nutshell. All good and evil and all in between things come from that "hey, that was good, but was it? I dont remember, but lets do that" :)

  • @rf2632_
    @rf2632_ 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Transcendence turns out to be a masterpiece! I listen metal and progressive metal since I was 8 years old and I never heard such a wonderful album ever in my life!

  • @BuzzaB77
    @BuzzaB77 7 ปีที่แล้ว +48

    Dev, for your info, (for future attempts) you can multi track a 'virtual' choir, but you need to move the singers around vs the same mic position for every layer or else it will never stack convincingly and in certain cases with very 'tight' singers you can get phase cancellation .

    There isn't, nor has there ever been, a man on Earth I have cared for and respected so much despite never having met them.
    I would travel anywhere on the planet to tell him how much his music and his growth has influenced me. He is what makes me so proud to be in music. I love you, Dev. And every sigle one of your bandmates. Thank you for changing my life forever.

    I remember seeing strapping young lad and writing them off till I saw a live performance, wish more performers could entertain like Devin. I think a shit ton of metal heads listen to shit like new age or something not so gnarly by contrast its just this mans got the balls to express it, kudos m8

    I fucking love everything about these videos, the insight, laboring and the soul of it. it truly shows Devin you out your all into this, that's what I love about this band. the bonus is some of the greatest musicians on the planet and the heaviest sound ever produced. every time I listen to this album I hear something new and there's time I just get emotional like I'm ready to bust out and cry, it's that moving for me. can't wait for the next one, but this one and Addicted, to me, are the pinnacle of epicness!! Cheers to you all.

    I love Dev so much. Beginning of his career up to this, there isn't a bad piece of music. I do have a special place in my heart for Terria, though.
    PS, the fork scraping on the plate in the last three seconds KILLED ME.

    These videos are truly inspirational on so many levels. To see a brilliant bunch of guys do what they do, well, there was a time when the only information you could find on a band was a brief interview in Circus or Hit Parader. lol Thank you all for going the extra mile and sharing so much of yourselves along the DTP journey!

    Ok. That's enough. Enough I said! Just bought the 2CD + T-shirt to support you, even when I downloaded the album like weeks ago. One more thing; Stormbending is a fabulous super epic track. Thanks to you and the band, and all who helped creating it.

    It's so cool, interesting and inspiring to see the creation process of this musical piece of art.
    And even despite your lack of "technique" (as you said), how i'd truly love to see or have a voice lesson from you, Devin .... it's one of my biggest dreams !
    It may never be fullfilled (at least physically), but a little video on youtube would be so great.
    Anyway, I love your music.
    Long life to you and your buddies ... amazing work ;)
