    @alexwebmch 2 года назад +299

    I would say that although James doesn't use presets, or recycle the same sounds, he does have a distinct approach to songwriting and production that shines through in all of his work, so I would imagine his collaborators have at least some idea of what they're going to get before they choose to work with him. Great interview, James is an intelligent and thoughtful person and I'm glad Anthony gave him the time to communicate his ideas.

    • @nullpattern

      he definitely samples himself a lot which I think is actually brilliant! Fall Creek Choir sampled his Case of You cover, etc.

    • @brendaccc
      @brendaccc 2 года назад +3

      I dare to say that what makes Blake that brilliant is just the way he plays in a unusual way with production - he blows my mind with his vision of using samples with a creative way. We live in a time where sampling some ways could be so boring and he comes with a nice surprise like "Where's The Catch?"
      He's unique as a artist. I always say to everyone that is like he didn't decide to paint, and his songs are like paintings.

      i think he means more like, he doesnt have a specific preset / drum kit etc that he's set to always use (yk thats why theyre "pre"-sets), i think he probably... does use synth presets lol

    Tell ya what's nice about Fantano. He puts himself out there and he doesn't hide behind written words in an article. He's not always been the biggest fan of James' output but he just has a pleasant conversation and he's opening himself up to the musicians who he talks about in his videos, sometimes good, sometimes bad. It's commendable.
