    I’ll never forget going to a kimbra show back in 2018 in Minneapolis and finding Cory Wong in the audience. Had to say hi! Fun coincidence considering I already had tickets to see him at red rocks that upcoming summer. And then this tune?! Blew my mind. So happy for this collaboration

    My favorite thing about these videos is learning just how remarkably smart Cory Wong is. The dude is full 360 smart. He's got every angle of creativity and smart covered whether its music, production design, brand management, or business savvy and management. 360 smart.

    The fact that Cory is so humble while asking artists for collaborations, makes me feel that special warmth in my heart. He's already a huge name in the game, yet he's still keeping his cool and doesn't make himself look like the legend he actually is.

  • @Normiiiiiiiii
    @Normiiiiiiiii 3 года назад +24

    This is so good. I've never heard someone explain Kimbra's talent the way I do with such appreciation for her skills. I'm always dreaming for a production breakdown for songs I love, so thank you for doing this! I've really been getting into your music lately and learning from your guitar techniques and then to hear you with Kimbra! Woooooh !

    Love the part about making the "guitar orchestra" not being quantized and the nuances making it what it is. That's absolutely true. I think it makes the part stand out in the finished track rather than just blend it like its just another part.

    Been following Michael Nelson since his Prince days when I was a young horn player (still a Prince fanatic and horn player now) and definitely use some of his techniques when trying to write horn arrangements. So glad he is getting a new audience through your music. Excellent content and appreciate it so much.

Your chi might be more centered if you would close the regions bin window, collapse the track list view, also not view the send sand plug-in banks we are not using. (sends f-j ,plug-ins f-j) especially since your working with only one screen (oh yeah, your chi would also enjoy a second monitor :) Respect. :)
