    This upload at least includes some of Gould's thoughts and his amazing predictions about the flexibility, interpretations, and creativity that technology would allow. I do NOT believe "sampling" in the ways demonstrated in this video (decontextualized and trivialized) entails what GG had in mind (just my opinion). Still not sure if this content has a place on the GG official channel. Review Gould's obsessive use of technology to get the best interpretation possible (through extensive of takes and splicing). Gould had HIS vision. Sampling random, decontextualized bars of certain recordings & repeating them in such fashion typified by the "background" of this video comes across as absurd or even disrespectful. Just my two cents. Official channel, give us the content we subscribed for, PLEASE!

    Alright, that's enough. We clearly have a case of the Dunning-Kruger effect here. Hopefully one day things get back to normal, but until then -- au revoir.

    I think these videos are beginning to hit their stride, in terms of content (more Glenn, less doofuses), ideas (GG excerpts about his theory of recording), and recognizing that Gould was fascinated by mashups (his audio documentaries often have three voices or more at once).
    Still, as others have pointed out, laying a few bars of GG playing ‘that dude, Bach,’ over a trip-hop beat isn’t what I am looking for. However, I respect your project and I hope you continue to raise the bar.

    Not sure he meant repeating 2 measures infinitely in a loop

      Knowing what Gould thought about the chromatic fantasia of Bach, while it's largely loved piece, I think he wouldn't even want to hear about the existence of some 4 measuress the repeat indefinitely.
      And they call that art LOL

    Now this makes more sense, I still don’t like it, but I think this is properly justified and quite possible coming from tasteful intentions. I sincerely hope that this project becomes a great success.

    I have no idea why, but gould always felt like a distant ancestor of mine, though, my ancestors being located in welsh areas and later in Canada. not quite sure, but based on his middle name herbert- is he from a German root...?

    • @jjmckenna
      @jjmckenna 3 года назад +2

      This information is out there somewhere, in a biography, I’m sure. I do know that he was a not-too-distant relation to Edvard Grieg, the Norwegian composer, on his mother’s side.
      Time to do a little research!

    Curious as to the reasons behind the upvotes (since the overwhelming majority of comments are negative). Did those who "liked" this video actually watch it? Seems like a suspicious imbalance.

    GG did predict sampling, the creation of playlists, remixes, and all of those other technologically enabled musical advances, yes. But this does not justify in any way what you are doing.

    Glenn Gould was a perfectionist! He spent many years too perfect the recordings he did. If it ain't broken don't fix it some folks say. Well these guys broke it really bad. This is really bad and a shame. These persons that are doing this are very disrespectful against Glenn Gould's legacy and his recordings he spent so long time too perfect. Do you realise how much work he put in those recordings? Only the two books of the Well Tempered Klavier is about four hours. This is cruelly, disturbing and disrespectful against Glenn Gould.

    Seems like everyone commenting would just be happy with Gould's name losing all relevance to the current generation. They literally played audio of Gould taking about exactly what is going on in these videos.

      Ya either really dive into Bach or not. Don't ak cute. These efforts ain't doing dink. This is refuse and not even good camp! it's just misguided a lack of taste. A crunched ginger ale can swirling around in the sewer. Its as good as a Taylor Swift cover of a funk classic.
