He was destined to be one of the greatest of all time - I'm still so upset he's gone, we were robbed of something special
I agree. We were robbed of something special, sounds of better world. I love his music.
He is one of the greatest of all time. There are a few that are up there but not quite the same level.
Max Richter
Hans Zimmer
Ludovico Einaudi
frequent collaborator Hildur Guðnadóttir
I’m heartbroken. We’ve lost one of the greatest talents of our generation. What a man. What a mind. What a talent. 💔
Dagný Valgeirsdóttir a tragedy indeed :(
well said.
😔
Well said, you echo my sentiments exactly
Yes... and I have wanted so much him to compose scores for the remake of Dune.... :(
“Music is more powerful, when there’s less of it.”
-Jóhann Jóhannsson
There’s a beautiful and complex simplicity in this music. And I don’t think melancholy describes it accurately. Perhaps we feel something that we think is sadness or melancholy, but really, what we FEEL is more complex than the simple names that we prescribed as emotions. JJ - Thank you for letting us FEEL what we can’t explain with words. Rest in power.
So powerfull this coment 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
"l think melancholy is kind of a misunderstood emotion. I don’t think it’s necessarily an unpleasant or bad emotion. There’s an emphasis, especially these days with social media, that everyone has to be this ecstatically happy person living this amazing life. Melancholy is a state that I very much enjoy being in, actually. It’s not the same as feeling sad. It’s a more complex emotion; it derives from a tragic view of the world, a tragic view of art." ~ Jóhann Jóhannsson.
The silence he left us is then all the more powerful.

How I love Jóhannsson and how I wish he were still among us.
I totally agree yet am thankful that his music is still with us.
i wanted to get old with him. listen to his music until i am an old woman. it broke my heart when he left. i am so happy that you all here love his music as i do. it opens your heart, let you grow and let you dive deep.
Unbelievable
Johannn's music begs you to think about things you refuse to face. his music is like a wise hug made of sounds.
Surely Is !
preciuos reflection
@@lotofagiaverboycarne amazingly well said!
Beautifully said. 😊
@@mikarylee8682 thank you 😊
I keep coming back to this❤
I have only just discovered Jóhann Jóhannsson and his work. I was sad to learn he'd passed away a few years ago. I really like what I have heard so far.
geez. Me too. I just discovered this guy earlier this day. His works with Denis Villeneuve really admires me somehow, so i looked upon his works. Knowing he passed away a few years ago makes me gutted.
Saw him in Barcelona in 2018. It was the most beautiful, heartbreaking and emotional concert I’ve ever seen in my life, truly inspiring. Two weeks after he passed away. That was devastating, I still have the tickets in my Apple wallet as a memory, don’t want to let them go.
He is truly one of the greatest composers of the modern era! Jóhann with go down in the history books as a film score pioneer. He is one of my personal favorite composers alongside some of the greats like Ennio Morricone and John Williams. You can listen to his music, close your eyes, and get lost in the uniqueness of his style. From the relaxing melodies, Erie scores, and waltz ballads, he really combined every element of sound and feeling into his work.
Same here!. I'm like...wait, he died?!. There was so much beauty in his music that is needed for my soul. 😟😢😭
Watching him and knowing that he's in the past tense is really sad. It's like watching his ghost perform such amazing music.
Given Jóhann’s three-movie run with Denis Villaneuve, I wonder if he would have been chosen to write the music to Dune (2021) over Hans Zimmer.
I believe that we lost one of the greatest musical minds. However, I believe that I can feel and hear his depressions in his last masterpieces. His work is just amazing!
Totally agree the profound sadness is one I express in my music and I always tell people you can’t write it unless you’ve suffered that immense sadness
The music industry removes the most talented. They know the artists music will become more monetarily enriching; in no way will I or do I believe this man took his own life. For him to succeeded to the echelon he got to, no one throws in the towel
Rest well.
No music is this powerful, you are immortal Jóhann.
"A Sparrow Alighted Upon Our Shoulder" one of the most beautiful and sadest masterpieces i`ve ever heard and always have tears in my eyes!! R.I.P. GENIUS
He accomplished so much in his life. That is what matters - not the music he wasn't able to create, but the music he was able to leave for us.
What a great host. Don't know his name, but knew his stuff, prepped and appreciated his talent.
Stumbled across this after watching 'Mandy'. Amazing OST by an amazing composer. Sad to hear of his passing. Rest well, sir.
R.I.P
Insane. Way too young.
😢
flowers
Wait did he die?
what an amazing heart in this beautiful peaces, sky is no limit and Dear Jóhann Jóhannsson give us with Orphee a lesson in humility🌈
Sadness on a scale that I never knew possible --- His musical contributions have not even BEGUN to be "discovered." I LOVE YOU, AND I MISS YOU, MY BROTHER.
I can't believe this guy has died so young. I love his music. I'm really sad.
He was really a great composer
Without johann, the world will be a little more unbearable place. We miss you dear johann💔
it's almost like he wrote his own requiem
:(((
What a beautiful requiem then.

You're missing Flight From the City at 37:02.
Thank you for the timestamps.
Very good u noticed, definitely my favorite by far, the video for Flight From the City has really captured my heart
Im sad to just hear of his passing... While searching for his music. I use to live next door to Johannes and his brother in North Hollywood on Riverton.;) 1990. He was always friendly and laughing and smiling and as a fellow keyboardist i was always inspired by him and their musical abilities with Yngwie way back in 1990. They were amazing and from another world. It's very surprising and sad to hear he died. What happened? I know i can Google the answers.. but seems like friends and family in here. ;) 🎹❤
Thank you so much for all your beautiful music Mr. Jóhannsson. Take rest. ❤
Gone way too soon. He was a treasure.
I discovered him through Max Ritcher and was so excited only to find out he had passed and I cried.
yea man life is short and precious
Kexp is the best radio station ever, they get a lot of fantastic guests !!
I knew who he was but never listened to his music. This set is so powerful and emotional. How have I missed hearing this before? Rest in peace Jóhann.
He was a real genius, one of the best composers of his generation, we will miss him... RIP
So sad hearing him talk about his recent and upcoming projects in that central section. He would have gone on to create so much more; and his music really was improving all the time.
RIP maestro.
O melhor de todos se foi! Descanse em Paz! Johann! The best of everyone left us! Rest in Peace, Jóhann!
This was right before his seattle show, I am SO happy I got to see him perform at least once in my lifetime. :( rest well.
Song for Europa is such a beautiful piece. I love the mysterious vocal that runs throughout. If anyone has listened to the brilliant podcast 'Death in Ice Valley' you can tell the composer of that score took a lot of inspiration from this track! R.I.P. Jóhan
A reply five years later - the voice is from many recorded short wave radio station broadcasts during the Cold War in Europe, the messages as repetitions of alphanumeric strings and musical notes were coded transmissions for agents, widley known as 'number stations'. A collection of these recordings called 'Conet Project' is a good introduction.
I'm extremely shocked " STILL ! " That this man passed away .
His ear for music , is absolutely incredible and we all have lost a Very Talented Man .
Rest in Peace and I hope your peace is a musical heaven Mr. Johansson.
I tried watching this today, but I couldn't get past the Sparrow Alighted track. Just too sad. I can't believe he's gone.
Wie unglaublich schön ist diese Musik!! Ich bin so dankbar, dass du mit uns warst und so viel da gelassen hast!
the music of the future that talks about the past.
Arrival is one of my favourite movies.
hi, i think it's time to say that the film "Arrival" is based on the short story "Story of your Life" by the brilliant writer Ted Chiang - from his "Stories of your Life and others" collection. An absolutely wonderful book!
@@mikeg6748 Yes, I think so too, but that music enhances all the movie, gives it all that Denis Villlenueve couldn't explain with words, master soundtrack
Rest In Peace Jóhann. You've left behind a legacy.
What an immense loss for contemporary music... Rip Jóhann
I wept when he left us... We are much darker now that he is gone, What a fucking Gem Iceland gave us.
Simply there are no words to describe what I feel when I listen to this man's compositions, without questions he is a full Maestro of the highest order. What an immense loss for the world of music and all of us.
I am at a loss for words after experiancing "Mandy". I will forever be thankful with the music he left with us.
Thank you for the music Johann - RIP
This is so amazing. Hard to believe such beauty can be made by humans. So sad that he is gone already. Thank you.
من موسیقی دان نیستم ، ولی حس میکنم ، وقتی یوهان یوهانسون قطعه ای خلق میکند، موقع گوش دادن ، زمان کند میشود، کسی که توانایی نگه داشتن زمان را در موسیقی داشته باشد ، حتما شخص بزرگی است ، یادش همیشه گرامی
We lost a star. His music will always inspire humanity for ages to come. A rare artist born in a society starving for real art.
2021 miss you Johann(((
Rest in Peace Jóhann. This was taken when he was on tour in Seattle in 2017. I remembered this day very well.
Rest in peace. His music was, and still is, life changing.
Flight From The City is simply magical. There is no other way to put it, and the video for it puts the writing of the Music into perspective. I do Yoga a lot and Flight From The City is incorporated in the ending A LOT of the time. Flight From The City and Corpse Pose transcended me in one of my practices, and though I can’t swim, I literally felt as if I could. Just a unique piece of work, and what a blessing that Jóhann was able to share it with the world. What a privilege for the ears to hear. Blessed we are that are able to hear that song.❤🙏🏾
Rest in as much peace as your wonderful music creates, Johann. One of the greatest creators of beauty is lost to us, well before his time.
The first song wrecked me and I was glued to my computer from then on.
Hauntingly beautiful
Got you in the feels, eh? Me too. Been on repeat since I found this, and got the album on Apple Music too. I'm just gonna say it: he's the new Hans Zimmer.
I disagree. Johann is very different from Hans. Hans uses more classical roots with changing melodies and Stravinsky/Shostakovich peaks, while Olafur Arnalds, Ludovico Einaudi and Johnannson all stick to a minimal composition, inspired by Philip Glass. All while Johann could be Hans 2.0, but minimal.
Alexander, I meant that in the sense of his foray into film more than his stylistic approach; I've no doubt you're correct about the latter, but as fare as the former is concerned, I feel that Jóhann is slowly but surely beginning to surpass Hans as a film composer. I love both, a lot, but I'm so much more excited about Jóhann scoring films than I am about Hans these days. Personally love all the work he's done with Villeneuve and I can't WAIT to see where he takes BLADE RUNNER 2049.
Hans got his place in Blade runner after all :)
@@EyeGodZA It's heartbreaking to read this 3 years later. We lost an amazing composer
He had so much more to given, yet had already given us so much. Utterly heartbroken since I found out, has anyone found out why he passed away? May you RIP Johan, gone to soon, was always hoping my children would grow up with your music....
Rest in peace, really thankful i had the opportunity to see this performance twice in the theatre, i cried both times. Thank you for this emotional trip, still can't believe
Lo estoy escuchando acá en el sur de Chile y me cuesta creer que haya partido. Necesitamos más Johann Johannsson en este mundo.....
Beautiful composer, he will be missed greatly
😢RIP Jóhann Jóhannsson ❤️
Thank you for your beautiful music ❤️🎶🙏🏼
I can’t believe we’ve lost this man already, so sad, such loss 😥
The best composer ever to live. RIP
We miss you, King.
All glories to this amaizing artist in the heaven, playing between angels.
The world will never be the same :(
One of my favorite composers to listen to during writing. His music always brings up such detailed moods and imagery for me. I very much wish we could hear any of the music he might have written for Blade Runner 2049 before they decided to go in a different direction - I don't know how far he went with that and how much he created for that film. And now I learn from this video he was writing music for Aronofsky's Mother! but I don't think any of that ended up in that film either.
Rest in Peace Jóhann. You will be sorely missed but never forgotten. Thank you for all the wonderful gems of music that you gifted us.
I am deeply moved by this music. An inspiring and musical pioneer for future composers. He was far ahead of his time. The more regrettable his sudden death. What else could he have done?
His musical works are milestones. His music leaves the customary listening habits that rather narrow our musical emotional world. Music of the present. Music in the here and now. He has opened up a musical horizon for us to discover more and more.
Thank you Johann Johannsson.
one of the greats. rest in peace.
RIP Jóhann Jóhannsson, thanks for the memories
This make me cry...
It is sad to live when those who represent life leave: it is good to know that they have left us such excellent parts of life that keep us alive!
Beautiful words
Some of the most moving compositions I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. I've fallen in love with his work recently, especially Orphee.
He'll be deeply missed.
Decended grief as I learned of his passing; I was overwhelmed with reverence, admiration, and fear of his ability to inspire the emotions of listeners…to a better place, Godspeed.
RIP :( Gone way too soon. He'll leave behind a beautiful legacy.
KEXP: thank you for putting this up. Truthfully, i did not know of this gentleman's breathtaking work until today, when it was announced that he had passed.
Heartbreaking...
This man would have blessed us with so much, for so long.
I'm grateful for what he has done.
(will be praying for his loved ones.)
GodSpeed, Mr. Johannsson, you've left us far, far too soon.
-e
Saw him both times he cam to Boston. Magical nights.
He is such an important artist right now. I love his material--all of it.
Johann, we miss you.🙏
Thank you for the all these beauties. R.I.P
Rest in peace. Way to soon for a musician I just started noticing and appreciating. :(
the world has lost a great mind
may kindness guide you on the other side
may your music brighten up the world each day anew
thank you from the bottom of my heart
resquiat in pace
may the notes reach you in the stars. R.I.P
Rest in Peace Jóhann.
I miss him so much..
RIP Jóhann. Absolute legend and such a talent gone too soon.
Definitely in my top three film composers, damn shame it felt like he was just getting started.
Very sad he passed away I love your works Johann RIP
this is masterful ... have only known johann since a month ago but have listened to him daily. I am also a musician but it was a very long time since I was affected. Nor had any idea that Johann had passed away. What a loss for us. How to turn a thumbs down for this is completely incomprehensible to me.
This is really cool to watch. I love contemporary, and I'd kill to be in one of this ensembles! Rest In Peace, JJ.
I also love how they "kill" some air time between Drowned World and Flight from the City in order to give everyone time to switch instruments!
RIP. I just can't believe it !
Rest in peace, great composer
JJ's soundtrack to the motion picture Mandy has changed my life and should be the gold standard for soundtracks!
RIP . Thanks for the Music
Thank you Jóhann for creating such sounds that will inspire me forever.
Someone pls dry my tears. R.I.P
R.I.P Jóhann.
