Composers are underrated. People often only care about singers & musicians. Classical composers are so talented too. I’ll always be impressed by an original score composed for a film! It takes a lot of talents, work, and imagination to compose an original piece.
I love Hildur's work. So unique and exquisite. The more you listen to it, the more it crawls under your skin.. Sicario, The Joker, Chernobyl and even in video-game, like Battlefield 2042. Amazing talent.
Hildur introduced me to a whole new genre of music. Fascinating stuff. And her enthusiasm is as infectious as it is inspiring. I'm guessing she has very few bad days. . .
Deep listening? it's great, opens up music to the everyday sounds… and sort of defies genres in that sense. It's, as it says, more about the listening than the…playing, for lack of a better word, and can train you to listen, pick out sounds! these are some classics, and more sort of classical-based, but there are some great music labels on field recordings, ambient, experimental, etc. to check out on bandcamp ~ she mentioned Oren Ambarchi's black truffle, for example.(but the type of releases are pretty wide) The last pick was the first release on Brian Eno's short-lived Obscure label, and he's of course another "classic" in this, but on another side of it. There's creating an environment, and taking in the environment for what it is, in a way… The label that first comes to me now is Longfrom editions, which release four longform pieces (15+ min) by four different artists/groups every… third month, perhaps, which I really recommend.
As an hobbyist composer, obviously have great respect for her work and relate to her passion for music, her album without sinking is great and so are her scores. Could listen to her for hours.
...damn...that's the first one of these fabulous pieces where I'm going to have to explore everything and buy lots...thank you Hildur for your knowledge and thank you Amoeba for this series...if only you'd go back to having an international shipping service so I could spend my monies on your stock instead going elsewhere....
It's simultaneously wonderful and a bit surreal to listen to young composers talk about their discovery of these classic contemporary composers. Yeah, and it's "Morton" Feldman. 😄
Yeah. She is a genius and her score for Women Talking was great as well. Even though not indicated by her in this segment, she is a fan of David Sylvian and she was going to collaborate with him on music around 2010..but no luck. She talks about Sylvian on a recent BBC radio program from January 2023.
High time we had someone who highlighted proper minimalism and drone! In particular: Gavin Bryars' "Jesus' Blood" is indeed a perfect, perfect, perfect piece.
Thank you so much, Amoeba interviewer, for *not* interjecting this absorbing commentary from Hildur Guðnadóttir with your off-camera voice, which would have broken the tone and flow of the discussion.
This list is the best and so great to see a shout out to Black Truffle, my favourite record label. If you dig this check out Eliane Radigue and Annea Lockwood. So happy that Hildur is bringing interesting music into cinema. Bravo. PS that Reverse Tree LP is sublime.
Finally someone gives us something vastly different from what everyone else is listening to! I'm going to hunt these down. Hildur is amazing herself, of course--I love her work.
Hey @amoeba! I watch these on my tv and it's not super pleasant: there are a TON of ads and the placement is sorta lame. I am cool with you guys making money, but putting the ads between the picks (instead of in between the music clips) would really help. Thank you!
Apart from the fourth pick I knew all over these... Do I get a prize?? Was waiting for a Phill Niblock or Julius East man pick that never came though haha! Love the articulation of thoughts, it's super important to hold on to sound as sound.
Her film scores will be the gateway for so many to discover the world of modern composition and that's awesome. Great composer!

I have heard Hildur pronounce her full name 50 times now and I am amazed at the pronunciation.
What a beautiful soul! So good to hear someone who just loves music with such detailed passion
She listed a lot of weird and nerdy ambient and drone instrumental music that i think i might really enjoy so thanks!
I really enjoy her work on Joker and Chernobyl. I hope she gets more good works in cinema with her pure and unique musical style.
Wow her selections are amazing. Never heard of any of them but the depth is incredible
I love Hildur's work. So unique and exquisite. The more you listen to it, the more it crawls under your skin.. Sicario, The Joker, Chernobyl and even in video-game, like Battlefield 2042. Amazing talent.
Sicario was Johan Johansson who she kind of held the banner of after his passing. She did the sequel
@@BroKEnCaPSLoCk1 Sicario: Day of the Soldado.
Beautiful soul she has. Love her work. Love her passion for music.
Without Sinking is a such a big personal fave of mine, happy to see her on here!
What a beautiful soul …..thank you Hildur
One of our greatest living composers, and an absolutely delightful and humble young woman 🤘🇮🇸
Didn’t watch at all but listened on my headphones at work, her voice is wonderful to listen to, so well spoken and kind.
The Sinking of the Titanic has always been one of my all time favorites. Great pick. Her album Without Sinking is amazing.
Can this be 2 hours long? I love how she talks about music
What an amazing entry!!

@@RayasNegroOvejas Wow! Thanks so much for the info. I have a deep dive to take part in LOL
Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet (this version AND the one with Tom Waits) is one of the best pieces of music of the 20th century.
The comical numpty Waits ruined that track, the audacity of his tackling it.
her selections are the realest. pauline and alvin are two of the greatest composers of deep listening music ever
Amazing Artist and one of the truly great modern day avant garde composers great episode!!!
As an hobbyist composer, obviously have great respect for her work and relate to her passion for music, her album without sinking is great and so are her scores. Could listen to her for hours.
Eyvind Kang, hugely underrated composer. Man has created some of the most beautiful music ever written.
Omg!! Love her! 😍❤️

thank you for this- she’s a special artist and her full-eyed love for music is overwhelmingly apparent and appreciated.
This is Next Level music listening. Like wow! I’m barely getting into Brian Eno.
This is fascinating. I know nothing of "deep listening". I'm glad that I watched this episode
'Deep listening ' I love that term! 🥰
It's simultaneously wonderful and a bit surreal to listen to young composers talk about their discovery of these classic contemporary composers.
Yeah, and it's "Morton" Feldman. 😄

Best episode.
What a delightfully informative episode. Loved it!
she's such a bright light, I love how she talks about her picks
I've always admired Icelandic musicians giving great experimental stuff out of the ordinary
Bought that Gavin briars vinyl as soon as I listened to it
Really cool. Another superb human.
Always good to see the LUMINOUS Hildur Guðnadóttir!
Beautiful.
Yes! Finally one of my favorites.
Every Episode of this is nice
I've fallen in love with this lady in 13 minutes and 8 seconds.
Check out her album ”without sinking” it’s lowkey brilliant
So gorgeous. I'm loving her "minimalist music' selection.
This is such a good way to hear about other really cool musicians.
She's lovely. It's a delight hearing her.
High time we had someone who highlighted proper minimalism and drone! In particular: Gavin Bryars' "Jesus' Blood" is indeed a perfect, perfect, perfect piece.
Love múm. Love her contributions to the more recent Sunn O))) records. Love this lady.
She seams nice. Interesting music .
Hildur Guðnadóttir Music is incredible! . I loved this video, lots a new music to listen to!
mal wieder schön zu sehen das ihr das ganze musikspektrum abdeckt mit euren gästen
Thank you so much, Amoeba interviewer, for *not* interjecting this absorbing commentary from Hildur Guðnadóttir with your off-camera voice, which would have broken the tone and flow of the discussion.
wonderful
She's so cute!
Great episode!
Ahhh someone I actually like.
She is the best !
Great taste!
Phenomenal talent.

Fantastic. Thank you
Fine choices. I must check out her music at some point.
Top Composer. Great Content here..
anyone who likes her film scores, please check out her earlier works. Her passion is inspiring.
This is one heavy WIMB. Sweet, sweet shares from Hildur.
Jeez. imagine a dinner party at her house. The soundtrack would lead you to think a murder is going to happen
By far the best Bag yet
Finally someone gives us something vastly different from what everyone else is listening to! I'm going to hunt these down. Hildur is amazing herself, of course--I love her work.
Love this video
Amazing!!!! Wonderful ear candy. Amoeba do more of these. Get rid of the pop groups going over mundane and boring sounds. This was truly enjoyable.
Totally agree I’m fed up watching these nowadays with shit bands that have a shit taste in music.
I loved the music from Chernobyl and this shows her influences, but I secretly wished she pulled a Spice Girls album. 😎😎
The one and only!
Groovy.
She was a member of mum, time flies, she aged but a fantastic composer. If she likes those stuff she should live in nyc.
Have you aged?
Your obsession with age is bizarre and you're going to look very a very unhappy life
ooh, rad!!
Hey @amoeba! I watch these on my tv and it's not super pleasant: there are a TON of ads and the placement is sorta lame. I am cool with you guys making money, but putting the ads between the picks (instead of in between the music clips) would really help. Thank you!
I knew i didn't know how to pronounce her name, but I didn't know that I was nowhere near pronouncing her name right.
Class
THAT "PAULINE" RECORD LOOKS INTERESTING.
This introduced me to Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet, and it absolutely destroyed me. First song in a long time to make me cry
Jesus Blood is one of the best pieces of music ever put to paper or record. Unbelievable.
wouldnt it be funny if she added a wildcard album like efil4zaggin or something
i lahahauve her smahahahaile....
Is this a Documentary Now take off?
I thought the sinking of the titanic came out in the 90s. mind: blown
It is Morton Feldman not Martin Feldman.
Martin!!! Feldman 😅
I’m never ever gonna attempt her last name
She played in Goodspeed You! Black Emperor
None of this is music that compels me in any way…outsider music…but she’s very lovely and enthusiastic.
those albums are very soundtrack-y
@@NGC_2264 very bad film and soundtrack
It would’ve been funny if she’d have mixed in a Bob Seger cd
😂
Apart from the fourth pick I knew all over these... Do I get a prize?? Was waiting for a Phill Niblock or Julius East man pick that never came though haha! Love the articulation of thoughts, it's super important to hold on to sound as sound.
🏆
I invite listeners to my 3-volume Spotify playlist Noise, Electronic, Experimental, Sound Art. Thousands of hours of these kinds of musics.
Let the record show that I was listening to her before she was famous
Well of course I don't listen to Joker or Chernobyl
Hmmm - Just by looking at her, I would have guessed she was more into Oingo Boingo or NOFX. Boy, was I wrong!
Mostly clicked because I wanted to figure out how to pronounce her name. Still don't know how.
Hilda Guanodottier
roughly: first name very close to the way it looks: HIL-dur
surname is a bit more tricky: KrUNE-na-t(h)ok-dish
Battlefield 2042 ❤
Hilarious
There’s no way people listen to this stuff
she probably listens to it because of her work as a soundtrack composer (which is better than doing generic orchestral stuff)
I knew about and listened to Pauline Oliveros long before I heard of Hildur Guðnadóttir.
I have for well over 50 years.
Don't ride elephants.
Hurt my damn ears @ 2:12
I just felt so ignorant listening to her.
