    Fun fact: this is a show from a particular dry bransch of public-access television in sweden called ”the education radio” (yes, I know. It’s not radio anymore). A friend of my produced this show and told me that one day his boss told him to do a show about learning to play drums, probably expecting a dry ”this a how you play a 4/4 beat”. Instead the producer called Morgan Ågren and the rest is swedish television history. They invited friends from meshuggah and Mats Öberg for jams. Other episode started with Morgan showing something ”simple”, then he showed it up to speed and it was insane. Then it ended with Morgan doing a signature one hand drum roll.
    And this album is amazing. It still blows my mind when I listen to it, even though I listened to nothing else for 6 months when it came out.

      The show Knesset was on ZTV at the same time. They had some well known drummers on the panel once and talked about "Trum" as an educational program and they were just laughing out loud on set, because none of them could keep up with any of the things Morgan showed. Wish I could see that episode again. I return to trum on youtube every once in a while and it makes me feel good. Probably the best ever produced by UR.

    You should check out Mats/morgan Band which is Morgan Ågren and his Friend Mats Öberg who is a jazz pianist (he is much more than that, he sings and is just incredible). They started when they were really young, and got to play with Frank Zappa, who called them "unbelievable", which was super nice :)
    Fun fact: Both Mats and Morgan are from the same town as the guys from Meshuggah (Umeå Västerbotten). Must be something in the water there, they got the syncopated polyrythm juice going!

    Sol Niger Within By Fredrik T is by far my favourite piece of music - a concept album that was released in 1997 and it was waaay ahead of its time. Thordendal is a pure genius and he asked his genius drummer friend to join this incredible project and oh boy, oh boy... You just have to listen to the entire thing if you have 40 minutes and you want to listen to some extreme avant-garde metal-jazz fusion! ;)

They put most of their old programs online though, and that's a freaking treasure trove, such an immense collection of culture with awesome live gigs and stuff from 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's, lots of really obscure things to be uncovered. But now they mostly do useless dramas, cheesy comedy and family entertainment shows.

    I remember when this video came out on TH-cam and all the commenters were pissed about how Fredrik’s top three strings are taped having no idea that he’s one of the most interesting and compelling lead guitarists in metal. He can shred with the best of em yet shows here that just because you’re not raping your fretboard doesn’t mean you aren’t doing something complex and amazing. Speed isn’t everything. Although here in Morgan’s case it is!

    • @hakkenarsk
      @hakkenarsk 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, and this vid has nothing (pun intended) to do with Fredrik, it's all about Morgan and his excellence. It's a show about drums, not guitar. Those discussions were awful and showed how little people understand about true brilliance.

    These two are seriously machines in human flesh. Morgan is absolutely insane with his approach to timing, but seems to just be the breed that people around the bubble of Meshuggah seem to possess.

    So glad you got around to watching it and had a blast! Morgan is one of those players who manages to roam "freely" even in the craziest stuff without making it feel and sound too mechnical and "drum machine" like, it flows and stays in the realm of human expression and chaos in a good way. I personally admire especially his wonderful touch and skill with which he can take the craziest singles and just scale them down in volume to this tiny small almost unheard level of quietness and still make it shred like no end. Just beautiful

    • @celestialaeonproject
      @celestialaeonproject 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      In many ways especially with drums there is a valid question: "can you play it quiet as well"? And Ågren for sure can

      Кст барабанщик говорил, что сыграть эту песню целиком - безумие, потому что записывалась она по большей части на импровизации, в ней еле уловимый патрн, а не раслушав так и практически невозможно поймать ритм.
      Но челик запилил видос с полным кавером этой песни. Все 21 минуту вместе с соло и эмбиентными партиями. Выглядит это БЕЗУМНО КРУТО.
