Hey man, thank you dearly for this amazing composition, I have absolutely no idea why you aren't to be found anywhere. Maybe it's because you are just emerging and writing on a bigger scale, but without this fortuitous reccomendation, I would not have found your spotify. I'll make sure to spread this wherever I can.
Thank you for the kind words. I actually moved here where i live now to be able to pursue art profesionally, and get some much needed focus. A beautiful tiny little mountaintown with roughly 800 inhabitants. I am definetely romanticizing the experience of living here, but also with the intent of sharing it as art and truly attempting something a bit out of the ordinary. Hummingbird was shot in my neighbours old cabin that has been empty for many years, until i moved here and saw it, just 50 meters above where i actually live. I contacted him, he gave me the keys without asking, and here we are. Now its my own art studio! The area is very rich in resources to create art, so its an exciting time, and i love what i am doing, and that is honestly what matters to me right now. It feels good. Growing an audience is of course important for many reasons as well, and a global community of musicans and the ideas of connecting across cultures was what got me into music in the first place. So thank you very much for sharing. I do appreicate it very much. In 6 days a new video and song is releasing, and I am pretty happy with the result. Shot both indoors and outdoors, in sunrise and sunset. Make sure to check that out. Also releasing on spotify the same day. Thanks again 🙂
Wow! I'm so happy to hear that. Just know I wholeheartedly appreciate what you're doing and will support this as much as I can. Such an environment is well deserved for what your music brings to the world, at the very least for me. I am a musician-to-be myself, with some minor recordings which I struggle to develop fully. Your work brings me pure joy, knowing people like you exist is reassuring. If you don't mind, tell me a few words of how you learned this musical knowledge and how you ended up in a mountaintown like this. Also if you do any major work outside of music, just out of curiosity in the practicality of making this a living, though don't feel obliged to, I know some of these might be too personal. I will surely check out yoir new release. Please keep on listening to your creative heart and the beautiful energy around. Have a great day mister
@@Rerved Thank you again and sorry for the late reply. Having a few minor recordings is how it all starts, and it can be hard to fully develop something and being contempt with that result. Its also a lot of fun and it usually resolves in the end. These days, i make it a goal to attack singular problems in songs, and think about the details. What is a problem today? Then i go ahead and look at how to remove the problematic part and make ends meet. I might make several a-b comparisons, becasue there is always so many phrases in one part. But i make a few to see which one i like the best, and when I feel that the part has become airy enough, articualte and has a nice professional quality, then thats when i know its done ☺ Defining what makes a song sound finished depends on so many things, but to me it usually comes down to the quality of the recording itself. Does this come across clear enough, is it artitulate, did i hit that note right? If you focus on the quality, you will be so happy about that part, that you dont feel something is missing. I started playing guitar at 17-18, and It is hard to summarize the journey up until now, at 35. In flames was the band that got it all started for me, and i bought a gibson explorer because of Jesper Stromblad. I was obsessed with that band, and have seen them live a number of times. Early on i actually played quite a lot with a few drummers. We played everything from Dio to Meshuggah, killswitch engage, scar symmetry and our own material that either i wrote or we just came up with in jams. We most likely sounded quite awful, but we had so much fun 😄One of these drummers also introduced me to jazz fusion, so I got a bit of that influence quite early, and it did help a lot in becoming familiar with the rythmes and tonalities, which at the time was in all honesty incomprehensible 😂 Learning guitar was early on about a mix of exploration, learning riffs, and just having fun. I also picked up Cubase quite early, which a producer from the band Donkeyboy recommended me, so i began pulling knobs and buttons as a producer as well, pretty early. I have always been very outgoing as a musician, so I have also contacted a lot of people across the world to collaborate and share experiences with. And while i havent involved other musicians for quite some time, thats when magic happens and thats what continues to drive me now, even tho im on a bit of a sidequest. I spent years writing music in many different scales, and also listened a lot to composers that wrote in these scales, such as prometheus. Cool name for a scale and equally cool tonality! Moving to the mountains is part of a longer story as well, but its partly an artistic choice as well as lifestyle. Growing my own food, fishing, hunting, gathering firewood, working out, reading philosophy. Taking health seriously and being diciplined to evolve' contributes a lot to the skill of finishing a piece of art. I see profesisonal music as the goal, and the prerequisit details of the path towards it naturally appearing, so moving here was just natural. What is the better choice? It all just kind of answers itself, right? It was kind of tough moving here, away from friends and family, but they also knew i had to do this and supported it. I do not really pursue music professionally in terms of making it a living, but to create a professional product. If i make money, that is great and it will contribute so much good as well, but its not a goal on the very top of the list. I am getting the money to do most things in other ways. So i wouldnt rely on it. I am a bricklayer, and earned very well from that, and I have bought all gear I have from that work. I bought my first guitar from working overtime, and also my beautiful Kiesel comes from stacking bricks! There are many many details in this story, and this is so far from where it all begun, but its all really just about trying to become healthier, and turning away the unhealthy things that might hinder your progress and development. I love positive people, and positive experiences, and i do truly follow my heart as you say! 🙂 And I have worked a lot on loving what i do, which in the end might be the biggest struggle we face. Thanks again for the very kind words and support.
@@BjornarFrantzenThank you so much for what you wrote, and do in general. I also value health and internal growth extremely highly, and strive to find a balance of relentless progress and being at piece with myself and what I do. I haven't much to add to what you said, other than that I wish the absolute best for you. I saw the new video has been uploaded, so I'll get to iy whenever I can and flood you with feedback, because your work truly deserves it. Keep on, Robert.
Blissful ❤
Gran trabajo! Nos vemos en el estrellato! ,💪
Chingon hermano. Awesome. This is una obra de arte. Thanks Bro.
