I'm turning 34 at the beginning of November, and just lost my job today for no good reason. I've dedicated many years to working for others and getting very little out of it all while daydreaming all day long about doing what I love, and being too drained physically and mentally after work is out to do anything with it because I traded all my time and energy to these dead-end jobs working for people that never ever appreciate the time and effort I've always put into it.

Hi Mr Stevenson, I don't know if you remember your old student or not, but I'm glad you decided to follow your dreams. You were too good for our school anyways. Good luck!
Hi Zara, of course I remember you, you were a great student to teach and I enjoyed our lessons together. Hope you are well and all the best for the future. Regards, Ro

congratulations - and bon voyage! - so far its been a pleasure, so keep up the good work- had the chance to see you live in copenhagen as well, truly a blast!
No, I'm not crying, it was not touching at all. (I wish my family supported me once, at least, from their heart, and not because "he fails at everything" Awesome song, btw!!

Congratulations brother,your pretty much a made man. You freaking did it,you always had it in you.

You really ARE a kick ass musician man. This song always fills me with an energy that I can't describe it's been healing,and comforting,this will live on forever brother,the powerful connection to music and emotions the way music like yours has spread so much good,if every shred of human existence is wiped away this music made in this time will forever live into the ether.
When I was a kid all I can dream about is to play my own music in front of people. I tried, so hard for many years until I finally decided to work as a seaman cause it’s the only way I can pay the bills. I am here now in the middle of the ocean with some unfinished songs on my computer, and I hate everything about my job. It’s nice to see somebody like you who didn’t give up and made beautiful music to share . Keep doing what you love and enjoy the happiness it gives you brother. You are great.
You don't give up either, if you like this, I'm sure there is some wonderful music in your soul too! Keep fighting, and one day you will make it happen.
Found you guys when i was going through a mental breakdown..... Helped me feel alive again when all the walla were closing in on me yet again..... Cheers guys, and may you have a blessed 2024....
Your band will go places and tour worldwide my support from Shillong,India A musician myself Pursuing MBA ,sometimes wanna leave this boring course and pursue music but opportunities in India is very less
Your tracks are dope, still remember buying your self titled album you had for sale to students after one of your gigs during school! It's amazing how far you've came since then and all this support you're getting is unreal to see, I'm glad you ditched teaching because you were far too talented to be hung up teaching kids like me to play guitar who were nowhere near as passionate as you are. Your hard work has paid off tremendously and you're getting everything you deserve! Huge respect Mr Stevenson
Yeah this seems to be a balance between both that I actually enjoy from beginning to end. Plini is a little too far out there for me and Chron sometimes doesn't go hard enough. This is a VERY good middle ground.
What a good simile ... I mixed them in my mind and yes, that is more or less the result, of course without disqualifying the immense talent and creativity of Mr. Stevenson.
Lucky for us you've made this decision! I very often find instrumental music difficult and droll to listen to. Whether my brains too small or my attention span too short of whatever, it is what it is. But every now and then, something comes along that is just riveting, brilliant and beautiful, complex but not boring, tasty ear candy. This is just that! I love it!
Tides From Nebula, Explosions in the Sky, God is an Astronaut, Plini, Intervals, Sithu Aye, David Maxim Micic... Sorry for you bud but instrumental dope shit has been the in-thing for the past decade, now's the time to catch up :p
@@NessNT love these titles Plini is incredible,and the drums are amongst some of the most progressive next level material composed and performed. Much love.
The first song I ever heard from you was Perlucidus, when i first listened to it, god i swear half a day passed before i moved on to see what you were all about. I have played guitar for many years myself but i never once grew inspired to at least attempt creating my own stuff until i discovered instrumetal. My love for instrumetal started with Angel Vivaldi, only shortly after discovering you as a second interest it skyrocketed, ever since then you have well beyond exceeded my favoritism towards being a soul inspiration to how I want to sound myself, but ever since the day I discovered you two or three years ago, there was never a day your music wasn't played on my phone, computer, anything that could play music. From then all Ive considered you was my absolute favorite artist hands down. The way you create your music the entire soul and vibe through every song is nothing short of Inspiring and much more than inspiring itself. Every time i listen to one of your songs, i cant help but be overwhelmed with inspiration to pick up my guitar and play more and more, doing everything i can to learn one of the parts of your songs from your tab book, your style is one of a kind and its like I found the sound i want to go after myself. I should have found you sooner, but I am completely blessed I have found you. I am very proud of your decision to devote your time 100% and I will 100% devote my support to you even if the train goes down hill, im going down with it and im okay with that, but what you have done, what you do, there is absolutely no way this train is going down hill. You have my full blown support my friend. Thank you for everything you have done. For every cloud in the sky, each holds its own favorite song from the one who built it, you brother. Thank you so much, keep up the phenomenal work.
I’m gonna leave a comment for future me here. The year is 2021. Corona is still rampant and life’s complicated as ever. Hopefully in whatever year I read this things will be different.
I've lost several friends in the last few years. Suicides, drugs, illness... Life is short. Life is what you make it. You're born alone and just like it, you die alone. But you are never alone. When I die, I plan to rejoin with those I lost to the fates of time...
Ok, why did 3:22 make me cry? That's so majestic! From a fellow musician who hasn't quit their job. I love my job, but I would love to create music as well. Great work!
I will try to keep this short. I’m in school working towards a degree in the medical field that has the potential to change a lot of people’s lives. Not only has the pursuit of this dream led to stress, but the closer I am to completion (3 months) paralyzing fear has set in because of the capabilities I will soon be entrusted with. As I go back and fourth in my mind split between making the right decision or not I always end up feeling I have. When I found this song it has stabilized my anxiety and my soul let out a sigh of relief because this is exactly how I feel. Thank you for creating this and sharing your story in music that directly talks to people’s souls. I just bought your album on Bandcamp and this song in particular has become my theme until I have accomplished my dream. Fan for life.
Not to be a dream crusher but you sound like a good person so I'll share something important with you. The suicide rate is highest amongst medical Doctors. Why? Because eventually they realize they don't really heal people. They drug people. Which often times makes them even more sick and dependent on the billion dollar medical industry. Maybe one day you'll use your God given gift to heal.
@@karaa7595 they don't actually just drug people unless they foresee medication as an applicable treatment. Until you have worked a day in the medical field, don't just assume everything you read on the web is true.
I didn't know Quentin Tarantino was such a great drummer! Edit: Now talking seriously, I hit the like button just for your courage. I am on the same path. Let's give the world what we best deliver!
Just driving through the country with my pregnant wife jamming to this, your music is powerful and needs no lyrics to feel exactly what your playing, much love 🤘
I was listening to the intro (never heard these guys before) and I'm thinking to myself... "this is epic, only thing that can ruin it now is the vocals"... well, the vocals did not ruin it!
I Built The Sky I’ve always had a hard time with pure instrumental stuff cause half of it just sounds like a bunch of hacky dudes just trying to solo over each other but recently I’ve discovered you and here at the end. Phenomenal stuff! Truly touching
I don't know why this made my cry. I guess because im worried about the future. After reading the intro, I was happy but that went away a couple of seconds after because I thought about how my future was going to be. Part of me is scared that I will not make it because I realize I haven't done anything that shows im heading in the right direction, and my actions don't match my goals. Im 19 and i stress about this all day. However, seeing your video gave me some hope too. I would love to learn more about your path, and how you got to where you at now(doing what you love for a living)
It's hard brother. I'm 27 and do the same thing constantly, by all accounts I'm successful. But I don't do what I love, and it's agonizing at times. The world is a funny place, we're beholden to none but ourselves yet doing what's right for us is sometimes extremely difficult. I wish I had some sort of answer for you, but maybe knowing you aren't the only one is enough for now. You've got 8 years to do what you need to do before you end up where I am bud, good luck.
This band and song is bringing me back to life with a all of sudden hit of a severe mental illness 4 years ago my life was in danger and I have been fighting against my own mind and trapped in a prison of my own thoughts.Seeking medical and being put on Medication has helped soothe the pain somewhat but it doesn't change the illness and the states of psychosis I endured. Listening to music has been my aliby and a great source of therapy. Through this song I feel my ego and soul being lifted up again and can maybe finally escape the prison of my own mind. Thank you I built the Sky for doing so.
Found this gem only yesterday... This is the most emotional and perfect song I've every heard from any band... Also the video and message is powerful, I love every second of it.
Dude.. This is stuff of dreeaams! The locations, sound quality, film quality, creativity, the simple fact that your an Aussie. Simply simply terrific. Cheers from the Netherlands
I'm 32 and I have no clue how I could make something like this work and still have a roof over my head but this is such an inspiration! I absolutely love that you shared this moment with us and I wish you nothing but success! You got the chops! You can do it! I just gotta remember to tell myself what I'm about to tell you. Never give up!
As some one feeling like they are stuck in a rut. I appreciate the inspiring message at the start. Trying to find the heart and bravery to do what you did for your dreams.
This song saved me in some really tough moments I endured. Everytime i listen to it it gives the drive I need whatever is coming. Thank you for making this 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
There needs to be a music Festival called "ProgStock" where it's all the progressive Artists/Bands like yourselves and others such as, Plini, Covet, Intervals, Owane, Arch Echo, Sithu Aye, Nick Johnston, Polyphia, Angel Vivaldi, Animals as Leaders etc etc. I know there are more artists i haven't yet found too. An event like that would be a dream. Edit: I just googled it and there is already an event called something Progstock but it's not quite the same genre i had in mind haha
I found out about you from that first shred collab two years ago and listened to your two eps which are some of my favorite albums. Im stoked for the future of this band.

My two tips for making it as a musician:
1. Be a good musician.
2. Be a better person.
I wish you all the best!
I can not be a good musician because I dont play anything, I only listen but. I can be a better person..
LOL! You win. Back in the day, every musician I worked with (including myself) needed at least one of those two tips.
@Jeff T Only on the surface maybe? Do you ever share what you create?
Be on time. Everytime. Make as many connections as humanly possible. Dont burn bridges. Practice your craft daily, and be easy to be around. Also, stay current in other audio skills, like audio & video production, live sound and stuff....the more you know.
Fantastic video btw.
Lots of successful musicians are terrible people.
This dude is by far my favorite musician. His ability to create this huge wall of emotion with instrumentals is incomparable. Absolutely inspiring.
This dude's the only reason i'm still picking up my guitar in the everyday life ^^ Really inspiring and motivational :)
listen to plini too..
Angel Vivaldi, Polyphia, and Animals as leaders, while you're at it.
Actively listen to all of them and still feel strongly about this.

This song doesn't have dislikes, they're likes from Australia.
hahahaha. best comment bruh!
lol im stealing this
can someone explain?
@@RollinRelyks australia is on the "lower" side of the world which means everything is upside down lol
Haha I'm from Western Australia, too true! Love your comment!
2023 and im still listening to this daily. Hype never stops my friend!!
Jack Mullersz😊😷🤐😐🤔🤨🙁😑😶🌀🤕
This is real music. Had me literally smiling the whole time how good it made me feel
Lucky for us you've made this decision! I very often find instrumental music difficult and droll to listen to. Whether my brains too small or my attention span too short of whatever, it is what it is. But every now and then, something comes along that is just riveting, brilliant and beautiful, complex but not boring, tasty ear candy. This is just that! I love it!
Between this, and Polyphia, instrumental is coming a long fucking way man. Makes me super excited for the future of both bands.
Instrumental music is the music not yet fucked up by vocalist.
For disclosure: I was a vocalist in a band. Not the worst one.
Tides From Nebula, Explosions in the Sky, God is an Astronaut, Plini, Intervals, Sithu Aye, David Maxim Micic...
Sorry for you bud but instrumental dope shit has been the in-thing for the past decade, now's the time to catch up :p
@@NessNT love these titles Plini is incredible,and the drums are amongst some of the most progressive next level material composed and performed. Much love.
So beautiful, and when it kicks in at 3:23 it just takes you to a level you didnt know existed. Wow.
I agree
This is timeless masterpiece. I feel the liberty through the soundwaves.
I could not said better than this honestly, I've been listening this song for years. Yet, you still managed to exactly put words on my feeling. Thanks
The first song I ever heard from you was Perlucidus, when i first listened to it, god i swear half a day passed before i moved on to see what you were all about. I have played guitar for many years myself but i never once grew inspired to at least attempt creating my own stuff until i discovered instrumetal. My love for instrumetal started with Angel Vivaldi, only shortly after discovering you as a second interest it skyrocketed, ever since then you have well beyond exceeded my favoritism towards being a soul inspiration to how I want to sound myself, but ever since the day I discovered you two or three years ago, there was never a day your music wasn't played on my phone, computer, anything that could play music. From then all Ive considered you was my absolute favorite artist hands down. The way you create your music the entire soul and vibe through every song is nothing short of Inspiring and much more than inspiring itself. Every time i listen to one of your songs, i cant help but be overwhelmed with inspiration to pick up my guitar and play more and more, doing everything i can to learn one of the parts of your songs from your tab book, your style is one of a kind and its like I found the sound i want to go after myself. I should have found you sooner, but I am completely blessed I have found you. I am very proud of your decision to devote your time 100% and I will 100% devote my support to you even if the train goes down hill, im going down with it and im okay with that, but what you have done, what you do, there is absolutely no way this train is going down hill. You have my full blown support my friend. Thank you for everything you have done. For every cloud in the sky, each holds its own favorite song from the one who built it, you brother. Thank you so much, keep up the phenomenal work.
Thank you so much Henomn, really excited for whats to come and your support is a HUGE contribution to me. Cheers, Ro
Songs like this is why metal saves lives. Its helping me right now. These guys are sick and helps through tough times.
Felt
It's been a long time i haven't heard a song that beautifull.
MrThoss1 real talk bruh 😳
I’m gonna leave a comment for future me here. The year is 2021. Corona is still rampant and life’s complicated as ever. Hopefully in whatever year I read this things will be different.
That sh😝t cut deep...
I've lost several friends in the last few years. Suicides, drugs, illness... Life is short. Life is what you make it. You're born alone and just like it, you die alone. But you are never alone. When I die, I plan to rejoin with those I lost to the fates of time...
@@seanisao3812 You never die alone if you accept Jesus as your savior. Much love.
@@thatlarsguyrl7737 that's not how it works , buddy.
@@seanisao3812 it is though. He's always with us.
EPIC!
*THE ONLY WAY TO FAIL IS TO NOT TRY*
I'M GLAD THAT YOU'RE PURSUING YOUR DREAM.
The only way to succeed is to try** lmao
The only way to fail is to stop...
Truth is, the only way to succeed is to fail. Otherwise is just beginners luck.
Words have lots of meanings. I will not fail
Jesus every time I click on a new song it's insane, guy has more talent in one finger than my last seven ancestors.
This was one of those ‘do i click on this recommended song or watch the vid i was planning to watch next’. Thank god i made the right call :,)
Exactly the same here!
yeah same. lmao damn
Ok, why did 3:22 make me cry? That's so majestic!
From a fellow musician who hasn't quit their job. I love my job, but I would love to create music as well. Great work!
I will try to keep this short. I’m in school working towards a degree in the medical field that has the potential to change a lot of people’s lives. Not only has the pursuit of this dream led to stress, but the closer I am to completion (3 months) paralyzing fear has set in because of the capabilities I will soon be entrusted with. As I go back and fourth in my mind split between making the right decision or not I always end up feeling I have. When I found this song it has stabilized my anxiety and my soul let out a sigh of relief because this is exactly how I feel. Thank you for creating this and sharing your story in music that directly talks to people’s souls. I just bought your album on Bandcamp and this song in particular has become my theme until I have accomplished my dream. Fan for life.
Wow !! All the best with your future mate, and thanks for the support 💖
THAT IS FRICKIN AWESOME
Not to be a dream crusher but you sound like a good person so I'll share something important with you.
The suicide rate is highest amongst medical Doctors. Why? Because eventually they realize they don't really heal people. They drug people. Which often times makes them even more sick and dependent on the billion dollar medical industry. Maybe one day you'll use your God given gift to heal.
Kara A haha....
@@karaa7595 they don't actually just drug people unless they foresee medication as an applicable treatment. Until you have worked a day in the medical field, don't just assume everything you read on the web is true.
You guys are just... I have no words. 😭😭😭
Long live I built the sky!
It feels like you are telling people "I'm building the sky , watch me" ❤️🤘
It's 2024 and still listening to this 🔥❤️
If you're a drummer then you know that feeling in 1:02
100%
Got it my men ❤❤❤❤
I didn't know Quentin Tarantino was such a great drummer!
Edit: Now talking seriously, I hit the like button just for your courage. I am on the same path. Let's give the world what we best deliver!
Just driving through the country with my pregnant wife jamming to this, your music is powerful and needs no lyrics to feel exactly what your playing, much love 🤘
when I feel like I don't feel like doing anything, I listen to this song, and I start to feel better. It's like the cure for cancer. A hug from Chile
This song balanced my chakras and hit my g-spot.
I was listening to the intro (never heard these guys before) and I'm thinking to myself... "this is epic, only thing that can ruin it now is the vocals"... well, the vocals did not ruin it!
Listening to this song brought me peace. I'm sitting in the Er in Downey, CA. praying for my girlfriend as she deals with lots of pain.
Hey man! I hope your girl's okay now. :)
hope she is doing well...
prayers to you..
Jean
On rare occasions, I stumble onto something that just blows a fresh breeze of joy through my existence.
same, buddy. same
I liked the part when you started, until the end. I didn't like when it was over though.
Evan Sales great comment.
Who's still listening in 2019??
I Built The Sky I’ve always had a hard time with pure instrumental stuff cause half of it just sounds like a bunch of hacky dudes just trying to solo over each other but recently I’ve discovered you and here at the end. Phenomenal stuff! Truly touching
You’ve inspired me to play guitar and be a better musician
Just started
Красавцы 👍 Beautiful music and landscape
Listening in 2050 here. Just can’t seem to stop the repeat
I don't know why this made my cry. I guess because im worried about the future. After reading the intro, I was happy but that went away a couple of seconds after because I thought about how my future was going to be. Part of me is scared that I will not make it because I realize I haven't done anything that shows im heading in the right direction, and my actions don't match my goals. Im 19 and i stress about this all day. However, seeing your video gave me some hope too. I would love to learn more about your path, and how you got to where you at now(doing what you love for a living)
It's hard brother. I'm 27 and do the same thing constantly, by all accounts I'm successful. But I don't do what I love, and it's agonizing at times. The world is a funny place, we're beholden to none but ourselves yet doing what's right for us is sometimes extremely difficult. I wish I had some sort of answer for you, but maybe knowing you aren't the only one is enough for now. You've got 8 years to do what you need to do before you end up where I am bud, good luck.
@@IAmSaveRio thanks for the reply, really helps! 🙏I need to better myself, and take time more seriously.
Work hard and never give up my dude 🙏💪
This band and song is bringing me back to life with a all of sudden hit of a severe mental illness 4 years ago my life was in danger and I have been fighting against my own mind and trapped in a prison of my own thoughts.Seeking medical and being put on Medication has helped soothe the pain somewhat but it doesn't change the illness and the states of psychosis I endured. Listening to music has been my aliby and a great source of therapy. Through this song I feel my ego and soul being lifted up again and can maybe finally escape the prison of my own mind. Thank you I built the Sky for doing so.
Drummer is sick bro. Open handed playing and still ambidextrous with time keeping. Not many drummers can do that.
The drums are programmed though
John Holmes what’s open handed?
arms not crossed over each other.
David Hammond thank you...
time reaction that is out of this world
2020 gang where you at!
Just discovered it today!
Nate ayy
Right here brother
Found this gem only yesterday... This is the most emotional and perfect song I've every heard from any band... Also the video and message is powerful, I love every second of it.
Listening for the first time now. Love the melody and the delay reverb.
Randomly found them listening to Polyphia, not disappointed at all.
Fucking the same dude, random youtube recommendation i do not regret pretty cool song!
Same here!
Same for me as well. Went on spotify to find their old albums, which are amazing.
Same. That same random act introduced me to Vitalism. If you don't know them...you SHOULD.
Same here
No vocals becomes mandatory when you have these types of licks... majestic brotha
This song is tapping into feelings I didn't know I had.
Dude.. This is stuff of dreeaams! The locations, sound quality, film quality, creativity, the simple fact that your an Aussie. Simply simply terrific. Cheers from the Netherlands
Oh my God where has this been!! I've played all genres over the years. The emotion conveyed in this gave me chills. Blown away.
This song simply gave me strength to keep crawling out of the dark spots. Phenomenal.
22 almost 23 and aspiring to be a metal musician myself. This video after a few listens (and a couple tears) inspired me a bit more to pursue my goals
Sounds like Periphery and Plini has a kid! :)
So basically Erra without vocals
@@himawarii_gg Yeah :)
More like old Polyphia mixed with old Plini. But both of those bands have changed a lot over the years.
good blend, I stretched out my earholes a little bit.
@@Yousuck00 Our next generation is gonna call these guys 'Legends'.
When I have a hard day, I hear this and it makes me smile, thanks guys
Same
I feel like I made a small step toward being a better human after listening to this song. thank you and bless you
I will always advocate for someone following their dreams, especially if it's making such great tunes!
Years later the song and the message is still crisp..love this track, always have. Do what makes you happy and your soul feel good..
This song it's truly a masterpiece I can't stop listening to it much love from ENGLAND ❤
Virginia
This is goooooooooood!
I was today years old when I found this Gem ♥
love the sound and talent. Very difficult to make it in this industry as an instrumental band, but not impossible. Can't wait to see you do it!!!
Who’s stll listening everyday?? oh my thats a masterpiece.
I opened my laptop and straight up played this. It feels really good.
Thank you I build the Sky
Rake K. my first song everytime i grabbed my phone... very sensational tones
3:22 is the best part period! Ever after 5 years in the end of 2024 it still give me chills 🤪
I'm 32 and I have no clue how I could make something like this work and still have a roof over my head but this is such an inspiration! I absolutely love that you shared this moment with us and I wish you nothing but success!
You got the chops! You can do it! I just gotta remember to tell myself what I'm about to tell you.
Never give up!
Bro, it’s 2022. I’m still addicted to this.
As some one feeling like they are stuck in a rut. I appreciate the inspiring message at the start. Trying to find the heart and bravery to do what you did for your dreams.
This song saved me in some really tough moments I endured. Everytime i listen to it it gives the drive I need whatever is coming. Thank you for making this 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
fvckin' beautiful! i lost count of how many times i've played this the past few days. keep pushing!
I'm not an Instrumental music person, but these were the shortest 5 minutes of my life. I love this! Keep on keeping on guys
To create music so good that it gives people such a powerful emotional reaction just shows the raw talent these musicians have.
This proves life isn’t a dream. It’s reality.
How the actual f**k can anyone dislike this? It's f**king musical genius. I guess they're jealous they can't play dem chops.
The timing to get the sunset shot right at the climax of the song is impressive. Great video.
Bro they definitely took a couple takes lol
@@JB-ml6ir no doubt
There needs to be a music Festival called "ProgStock" where it's all the progressive Artists/Bands like yourselves and others such as, Plini, Covet, Intervals, Owane, Arch Echo, Sithu Aye, Nick Johnston, Polyphia, Angel Vivaldi, Animals as Leaders etc etc. I know there are more artists i haven't yet found too. An event like that would be a dream.
Edit: I just googled it and there is already an event called something Progstock but it's not quite the same genre i had in mind haha
I would pay any amount of money for that. I’ll bring the weed and mushrooms!!! 👍🏼🤘
Also David Maxim Micic.
@@anurupguhathakurta2913 Who bit the moon is a fucking masterpiece, absolutely
Go listen to thank you scientist. You’ll love them
Thanks for the music recommendations
This video and the spirit of the people commenting here .....you can almost touch it.
first time EVER hearing u guys, im blown away, thanks for giving me something new to discover
Brings tears to my eyes... beautiful...
I lost count of how many times I've watched this video, what a fantastic place.
when he pulled off the button shirt to reveal that he loves metal i gave this a big fate slap like
My Dad gave me this gift of a song and I am thankful ever more
I found out about you from that first shred collab two years ago and listened to your two eps which are some of my favorite albums. Im stoked for the future of this band.
I'm a huge fan of instrumental metal. I only found I Built The Sky a few days ago on Spotify and Ive been loving your music. Keep it up!
Well done my brother, you've worked so hard for this and the music progression between then and now is incredible. 👊
