Efficiency, vigorous work ethic, and the ability to craft music that connects on an emotional level are elements that exist very rarely in one artist. Mick has achieved the level of success he has because he encompasses all these traits, and it’s great to have him on board for a discussion about what it takes to get to the top and how to maintain your health and sanity while doing it.
“My biggest advice would be to really tap into how music makes you feel, not just the technicalities behind making the music.” - Mick Gordon
ON THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN ABOUT:
- Coming up with a plan, and being able to alter that plan when needed
- Mick’s blocking approach to work scheduling
- Bludgeoning your way through projects vs. efficiency
- How Mick got into the video game music industry
- The importance of getting out of your studio
- Writing music that connects on an emotional level

- And much, much more

One of the most inspiring figures in music today, great podcast.
Awesome episode. Thanks for coming on Mick!
Super interesting conversation! Appreciated that you guys touched on processes of creating and how discipline, planning and organization are tied to all of that. Thank you Mick and Eyal!

nice interview thanks
HELL YEAH!!!
so coool Mick he is a star of game audio
I learned so much in this hour and a half while cleaning my Kitchen. Thank you.
*ahem* Flying derpy......
Wow that must be a f***ing gigantic kitchen!
@@bennyelsensohn9299 either that or they are perfectionist
Mick Gordon is amazing to listen to in all his interviews, so precise in everything he says. Would love to hear him talk about things regularly.
Have Mick comeback! And do a follow up or something
I don’t see the difference between modern music and 20th century music or whatever else including Baroque, etc. It’s all just motifs and auditory gestures communicate a nonverbal sense of something.
This interview is so inspirational. Just so happens UBISOFT announced they're building a new office in my town..
One of the most inspiring musician/producer out there.
excellent episode!!!
Great podcast, gets you surprisingly motivated to be productive.
Again another awesome episode. When you were talking about metal in video games I immediately had to think of Prince of Persia - Warrior Within. Pantera did the music for that one and it's super nice :D
What? Pantera? Where were they exactly? If you are talking about the credits theme and Dahaka chase sequence then its definitely not pantera it was Godsmack.

Mick's the man! Great guest idea, yall are killin it.
loved the podcast but I have to disagree about the orchestral scores. Like a video a fantasy video game can't really have the doom soundtrack. When you see the dragon, it makes sense to have that heavy score. I think orchestral music will always hold up/have a place. A little late but I thought I'd throw it out there.
You should tell Mick he doesn't know shit about game music
Eyal Levi come on man that isn’t what I mean. It’s opinion vs opinion. I disagreed with what was said. But he is phenomenal at what he does and I enjoy his work.
