I was telling people that it felt like a real missed opportunity that there wasn't a camera pointed down on his gear with a screen or projector showing it because there's just so much going on that if you're not already a fan, you may not fully grasp exactly what you're seeing, and the way he took music that is normally just a person standing behind a laptop and midi controller and not doing a whole lot, and turned it into a real music experience.

I play heavy doomy music and have played with “industrial” bands and always wondered why they don’t use actual metal to make the music and then I see this. Truly inspiring. You have done something unique and fucking HEAVY. Thank you for getting me pumped to make some new sounds!

    Dear god thank you and tell me about it. I’m still banging on a melodic drum made from a propane tank mixed with a really bad Casio keyboard. It’s so limiting given what could done were there no financial hurdles.
    I honestly believe that if a person can truly back up that they have the skill, they should be subsidized and allowed to just make cool shit.

  • @TheSquareOnes
    @TheSquareOnes 6 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    I listened to one of his albums a few years ago and it didn't really resonate with me, electronic music isn't particularly my thing and on top of that it didn't feel like he was using it to do enough. Knowing that it's all performed manually probably changes things though, at the very least changing that last assessment to "holy shit how is he doing so much!" I really need to give this music another shot with a better perspective.

    • @ctr-alt-del

      I agree,i heard his music first,thought it was a bit meh..then saw the video,thought this is amazing then saw his band name and thought it wasnt that good on the medium i heard it first on..guess its more of a visual thing..stunning that he makes all this innovative stuff to create/trigger sounds tho...love that aspect of it...

    • @TheSquareOnes
      @TheSquareOnes 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      How so? I don't listen to either, because neither compelled me to listen to them. If I found out that a mumble rapper was actually using a highly modified trumpet to "rap" that would also blow my mind and drive me to give them a second chance for similar reasons to the above. If anything, if I like his music purely because of the tools he uses then that would be the ideology that fuels modern hip-hop, which is notoriously image obsessed. By taking both on the merits of their sound rather than the superficial "human story behind the scenes" so to speak we can be honest about our preferences.
      For the record I never thought Author & Punisher was bad, even before. The music was obviously interesting before, just not interesting in a way I could personally see myself listening to on a daily basis. That's not something I can say for most modern hip-hop.
