      Finally I made it through Dark. I knew this Partita recording before. Only now I am able to fully appreciate how your comment can both have nothing to do with the show and be a reference to the show. I guess until we open the box the comment will be in a superposition of these states.

  • @emmabennet888

    For those who are here for the bit from Dark (10:18), you should listen to Inuit throat singing. The group consulted performers of the katajjaq to create these unique breathy and throaty a capella sounds that you hear in Partita No. 3. (though the Inuit were not originally accredited). I think I also heard some Mongolian(?) throat singing right before that bit, too.

    This is very sound vocalism. The off-voice, on voice thing requires real skill - expert pitching abilities. I'm bemused to read some of the comments below from people who don't get how skilful the singers need to be to do this. You don't have to like the music in the end, but appreciate the skill in creating it. These guys are good.

    • @python395
      @python395 2 года назад

      @@ajosemontenegro I wasn't referring to a specific piece, but the large body of work created by Canadian artist Devin Townsend. Albums like "Terria" or "Ocean Machine: Bio-mech" were truly the greatest pieces of work I have heard, and even after I wrote that original comment above he outdid himself with the release "The Puzzle"
      While Devins music would be classified under progressive metal, it's really much more than that. The dude is the most versatile, truly creative, and insanely passionate/intense artist I've ever come across, with stuff ranging from ambient works to metal to classical to country to jazz. Not to mention his insane production style. So clean and beautiful it's like listening to the sound of crystals, yet multilayered and complex. so many details meticulously crafted that I can go back to a record I've listened to 100 times and still pick out parts I've never heard before. Definitely an artist you want to listen to with your best headphones lying down with your eyes closed. The best part is no two albums actually sound the same.
      If you're interested check out "Hammerhead Sugarplum" off The Puzzle, "Deep Peace" on Terria, "Borderlands" on Empath, "Funeral" on Ocean Machine just to name a few and get you feeling out what this guy has to offer.

    Listening to this for the first time felt like after all these years of loving and enjoying music I had found something so new and amazing. I have been going back to it a lot since. I prefer this live version to be able to see who is singing.

    K. Dot indirectly got me here. I wanted to get some context for the Pulitzer for music, so I've been bouncing around the various compositions. Very well done.

      @interweeb5289 6 лет назад +4

      For me it was K-Dot and Kanye because they collabbed in a version of Say You Will and I think Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 2. I think it's pretty cool how Kendrick and Caroline got the Pulitzer prize at the same age.

      @@interweeb5289 you guys should look into Sinjin Hawke he was the UK producer who kanye had to work on his album who is very notorious for bringing out the best of Shaw's samples in his own productions.
