    Its amazing what Ren and Crew can create with virtually no money. A lot of bigger artists must be asking why they pay so much for video production when independent minds can achieve so much with so little. I believe he is hp for an award for Hi Ren- best video under £1000.

Basically anything he does is boss, enjoy, if you really want to get through his catalogue before 2030.

  • @chrisparti
    @chrisparti Год назад +5

    I don't know how Ren recorded the guitar, but if I had ever been clever enough to even think of doing something like this, I would probably have sent the guitar signal straight to desk via Bluetooth, or wireless, and just played the guitar unamplified in the hallway to avoid spillage from the guitar amp, and this would allow him to mix the guitar level in with the two lapel mics after with better separation. Maybe the guitar was amplified in the hallway, so that he could have a better feel of what he was playing. I don't know, its an interesting challenge.

    • @StrateleStudios
      @StrateleStudios  Год назад +2

      Ya, I was also thinking he could have recorded direct and re-amped it later if he wanted to. Maybe just the unamped guitar could have served enough sound to sing too in that verby hallway (seeing there is no monitoring device in his ear). I was also thinking since he was wireless, that amp could have been mic'd up anywhere in the location. Well, whatever he did, it sounded freakin' great. Thanks for your comment Chris, you made me think about this again. Welcome to the channel, brotha.

    The "Floaty" video effect also fits well with the subject matter of the song, which is the feeling one gets on the anti-depressant Zoloft (called by it's generic name Sertraline in the song).
    There is so much more to explore with him. If you want see something really interesting, compare his original Animal Flow video with the Live version. As different as it can get, and astounding on both fronts.

    • @AnxietyRat
      @AnxietyRat Год назад

      I mean any antidepressant can cause the emotional numbness explained in the song. Zoloft is just THE most commonly prescribed antidepressant but ANY antidepressant or SSRI specifically can cause these side effects. Which is why finding a medication that works for your brain chemistry and gives you the least amount of side effects is a bit of a trial-and-error... which is emotionally exhausting to go through.
      My own personal experience with Zoloft is that it worked really really good for my depression symptoms and I felt really really good while on it but it significantly decreased my appetite (appetite increase/decrease is also a common side effect of antidepressants)... And I was losing weight while on it so it wasn't an antidepressant that I could be on long term because with each doseage increase my appetite continued to decrease. So I was only on it for 3 or 4 months. But it wasn't the right fit for me. But yeah, I didn't experience ANY emotional numbness with Zoloft. I DID experience it with other antidepressants I subsequently was on...but not all of them had that side effect for me. So people can experience different side effects depending on the antidepressants that they're on and no one experiences the EXACT same side effects with the same medication because everyone's brain chemistry is unique and handles the chemicals differently.

    I loved your reaction. Thanks for doing more Ren. I recomend Money Game Part 1 & 2 (please do them together, haha). I know, Ren fans are really demanding xD. Also Dominoes. Makes me cry everytime, by the way

    Their beautiful and soft voices in the first half of the song are in such contrast to the words they're singing. It still makes me feel... something. Uncomfortable maybe? I can't quite put my finger on that feeling even after hearing it many times now. I hadn't thought about the video aspects and how that's adding to the unsettled feeling I get. Question-is Chinchilla singing a harmony or counter melody? I'm not a musician, but a friend I showed this to (who is) said she thought it was a counter melody. If you haven't already seen it, another amazing collaboration with Chinchilla is 'How To Be Me'. Also very haunting. Rensday? Awesome! Really enjoyed your reaction.

    Great reaction! Possibly my favourite reaction to this performance! You let it play. Your enjoyment of the performance was plain to see and beautifully expressed. You looked at some of the technical aspects in a way that was interesting and interspersed with expressions of appreciation. No speechifying, thank god! You also didn't make it all about you which, ironically, made you even more engaging! I wish more reactors were like you! :)

    Your reactions never disappoint. I love your commentary and observations after the song. Interesting stuff! 🙏🏻
    My vote for next Rensday is Ren and his band The Big Push covering I Shot the Sheriff/Road to Zion/Hip Hop. It's the video with 7.6 million views. It's a change of pace from what you've seen from Ren so far but is superb nevertheless.

LiSA - Gurenge (紅蓮華) / THE FIRST TAKE is the title of it and i kid you not its one of the most impressive vocal performances ive ever seen and everyone ive seen check it out is always just blwn away.

    I’ve been subscribed since you kind of rediscovered Dirty Loops a year ago or whenever it was Jeff. Great to see you reacting to Ren.
    Love them both, although they obviously bring different qualities to the table. That said, I think there’s less difference between the two artists than it appears on the surface. Dirty Loops have fabulous pop sensibilities and Ren is a phenomenal musician in a compositional sense with regard to actualising his song concepts. Both great at taking advantage of the visual expression that comes with RUclips as well. Would love to see Ren start to subtly hint at Prog/Fusion elements within his compositions,( that said I do feel he is almost starting to go in that direction in a small way already, although he’s probably not doing it in a conscious way).
    I’m a musician myself and I think you’ll enjoy going down the rabbit hole,( as all his fans describe it as lol). I certainly have.

  • @distractjen
    @distractjen Год назад

    Well, you were right. I loved this reaction as well!
    The first time I heard this song, it absolutely gutted me. Felt like it punched me in the deepest center of my soul and just lives there now.
    How to Be Me (live) was just as impactful, but in a much more haunting way.
    I’m not sure if those captions were correct, but I could be wrong. I thought it was “beautiful shame” and not “beautiful shape.” Not a big deal, but I’ve noticed that most of the captions in Ren’s RUclips videos are wildly inaccurate to the point of being seriously distracting. He usually pins a comment with the lyrics in each video, though.
    Love hearing and seeing his work through your ears and eyes. Your unique perspective makes these reactions quite compelling. Looking forward to next week!

    I put together a list for you of Ren mixing genres. He sings and raps in these songs that he wrote, produced & in many cases played all the instementation. 🤯I put a small description next to each so you know what to expect. 😍
    REN & ORLEAN - JESSICA (Soul music infused with Rap)
    ruclips.net/video/zU_GnJdT_Fk/видео.html
    Ren - Ready For You (Soulful/Jazzy vocals with moments of rap)
    ruclips.net/video/PdPVzKTJWXI/видео.html
    Ren - Humble (Feat. Eden Nash) (Island/Ska vocals with moments of rap)
    ruclips.net/video/PO9UC2Zt59c/видео.html
    Ren - Hold On (Country/Bluegrass hook mixed with a deep difficult rhyme schemes)
    ruclips.net/video/n7jsWZmHhcM/видео.html
    Ren Ft. Bibi - Crutch (First 2/3 Alt. Rock Ballad last 1/3 of this song gives metal vibes)
    ruclips.net/video/3gC2kq6E5Mo/видео.html
    Enjoy! 😁

    Rensday is now a favorite part of my week. Great reactions & insightful analysis; Liked & Subscribed my brother.
    Also: you deserve to see some of Ren's "lighter" content. I'd *highly* recommend "I Shot The Sheriff / Road to Zion / Hip Hop" with his band The Big Push (it's the one with 7.5+ million views: ruclips.net/video/uSeCuR51rek/видео.html ). Also, "Earned It / Man's World / Falling" with his friend Sam Thompkins (ruclips.net/video/d8nBzrhd8Ro/видео.html ).
    Both are examples of his "busking", and he has a way of really making these songs his own while still respecting the originals.

      ​@@StrateleStudios personally I prefer the lyrics off, I like to watch the performers and listen to the sound.
      Might not get every word but the nuances of what they are doing make up for it.
      "It's a beautiful shame" is a poetic and wonderful lyric, isn't it?

  • @Parula06

    IMO Ren's duet with Chinchilla on "How To Be Me" is even better than this, and this one sets a very high bar. Do check it out, but be sure to go to the live version, it's unbeatable. Never fails to choke me up, the emotion is so strong.

    Ren is self taught on the intruments he plays. Slowing down YT videos of performers and following what they did. He does not read music or write it. He just hears it and visualizes it as shapes and performs it. His band mates do. Seen in a live stream video put out by "Live Nation" during the pandemic, where Romain tells Ren to start with a certain cord and Ren voices his not knowing ... Romain then briefly shows his finger placement on his own guitar and Ren says ok and the 3 of them perform flawlessly.

      just for a bit of fun I thought I'd check it out myself.
      Watched the studio version, forgot you said live, this reacting business isn't easy you know.🙂
      From the band's name I was expecting heavy metal, (not a fan) but what I wasn't expecting was some jazz funk
      They look like a group of computer programmers who play music in their spare time, but it wasn't that bad.
      Would like to hear them do a Steely Dan cover, if anyone can sing.

    :) The lyric idea is great but one of the lyrics should have read: "what a beautiful shame" not "what a beautiful shape". The idea of shame here is associated with the feeling of being unable to be freely present in it to enjoy.
