A NEW BREED: Lessons with Toro y Moi - Part 5/5
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 лют 2015
- Keep it real, keep it light, and take time to experiment: these are our three lessons in creativity as instructed by Chaz Bundick. And as a world-renowned musician performing under the titles Toro Y Moi, Les Sins, and Sides of Chaz, this guy should know.
Director Liam MacRae transports us to the East shores of San Francisco Bay, where warm instrumentals evoke hazy waterside visuals. On a hike in the sunbathed hills of Berkeley, Chaz talks about the importance of honesty, his dog Michael, and nerding out on skate videos - all of which have influenced his creative manner.
With a focus on the interplay of location and sound, music and visuals, MacRae and Bundick bring the west coast heat to the rest of us. Once the music starts, you’re anywhere but here.
ABOUT A NEW BREED
Times are changing, and a new breed of artists are closing the gap on their ambitions; relieved of obstacles that were hindering a decade ago. When a musician's Soundcloud uploads turn into a world tour, and a photographer's steady Instagram following evolves into an international campaign, it's clear to see that more than ever, being a creator is synonymous with being self-made.

The Creator Class Lmfao
I really want to as well
Man. 9 Years later... I used to be part of The Creator Class back when I was in high school and I still to this day want to know what the groovy song @9:00 is.... I still remember those days like it was yesterday. I was going through really tough time as a kid and this video brought me to life. From a kid, to a grown man. I STILL come back to this video. From the Email I got from the creator class as a kid, to them dropping a video with an artist I admire . I felt like I was at the top of the world. unfortunately The Creator Class is not the same as when i was a teen, But man do I still come back to this video once a year to bring those memories and passion for the arts back. Thank You TCC
I've been a longtime fan of Chaz Bundick and it's amazing that he can branch of into different forms of art musically and in design.
This man is a genius. Everything he said about making music for you is true. I talked to him at one of his shows and he's chill af.
i've watched this mini-documentary about 15 times and im not lying on this. This is so beautiful i can't stop imagine that moment when i was in the front row of his show. This is an artist that i will never forget because i see me in him. He's inspiring.
I keep coming back to this video. Chaz comes across as such an honest and nice guy. So inspirational!! Well done to all at The Creator Class
p.s love the instrumentals on this video.
Peter Jackson Thanks for watching Peter! Means a lot. We were lucky to work with Chaz!
people like chaz restore my faith in humanity
D Kojo Gozo Couldn't agree more.
Chaz is a constant inspiration for me to follow my dreams.
I'd love to meet Toro. He seems so down to earth.
His name is Chaz
+Christian B i saw him at lollapalooza and i was first in line to meet him, very chill down to earth guy
So much love to Chaz.
He's such an inspiration honestly.
Fèlix He certainly is. Glad you liked it, man!
The Creator Class What was the song in the beginning, I love it so much.
Being a songwriter myself, finding myself with production and watching this, hearing his music is amazing. The chord changes on Anything in Return to the synths on What For? His music has so many feels. It's inspiring. Hopefully I get to work with him one day.
+Swivel Complex so. many. feels.
+The Creator Class
can you please give us a soundtrack list of the songs on the video. I searched all of alex's music and cant find a thing. Please help. Thanks.
+Swivel Complex I fell in love to Underneath the Pine
+Travis Lang so many feels
where can i find your work?
I definitely love this. I love being able to get into other creative individuals minds.
Its been 8 years and the pretentious nerds from The Creator Class still withhold the amazing music from this video!
seriously
He just inspired me to be make people relate more to my music and to be me, when I make tracks. I'm excited to progress moving forward. Thank you for posting this.
Straight up one of my favorite videos on the internet
What I enjoy about his philosophies most and his honesty, is that it basically guarantees he's always going to make awesome music. His motivations are pure and because of that it is something that will always last. For some reason Ive always sensed that in his music, ever since i first picked up on him just over a year ago. It comes together more now. This was a great vid that really reflected him well. Good job.
ChiquitaSpeaks Thanks for sharing - glad you liked the piece. Chaz is such a huge inspiration to us, as well.
The Creator Class where is all the great music in the video from? Are these Toro instrumentals?
Man how well this comment aged is incredible. He’s only gotten better and more himself over the years. Truly a gift to this earth.
@@Lutrahh …I disagree 😑
so organic, so beautiful
EMPOWA Thank you!
As an aspiring artist this helps so much. I was feeling a little out of my creative element, but this gives me a new perspective and such inspiration to keep doing what I do. Thank you for this.
Humble, poetic, and inspirational, a nice break from all the fake crap on the internet. Thank you for sharing your positive vibes. 😝✌
he is and has been doing everything i've ever hoped to do. he gives me so much hope.
It should be illegal for someone to be so perfect like him. Chaz is such a great inspiration
I absolutely agree and resonate with his perception. One of my top favs.
Reeta VP Thanks for your comment! Chaz is a huge inspiration.
The Creator Class
:)
The song in the beginning needs to be on my phone asap😩
This is honestly my favourite video on here.
Chaz is the inspiration
Smokesterr You've got the right!
this guy is an unbelievable rare talent... simple as that
I love this guy so much! Hes such an inspiration! This video makes me love his music more but gives me more respect for him as an artist and person!
Alexa Tarriba Hey Alexa! So glad you like it. Chaz is amazing - really lucky to have worked with him on this project!
Chaz is bae... and I don't use that term often
you get it
Great video. Great Artist. So much love for The Chaz, and I hope to see him in the bay some day.
Please, please, please extend this series. It's amazing.
WHATS THE NAME OF THIS FIRST SONG???
Love the visual editing well done
Hands down my favorite musician and this video clarifies it. He gets the big picture. Cheers from Indiana.
Mel Loper Thanks for watching, Mel! Glad you like it. Chaz is the best.

Mofos haven't answered still... it's been 5 years😑
@@maths1995 it’s sad man 😢
Amazing visuals, amazing music and to top it all off with Chaz: perfect!
Keith O' Reilly Thanks Keith - glad you dig it! Much more to come, so stay posted.
This video was put together beautifully... and having Toro Y Moi in it was even better (y)
Maria Tiffany Thanks Maria! Liam + team did an amazing job.
He doesn't let his title of musician compartmentalize his creativity to a box of audio based art. He's an artist. Graphic design/Musician. Why be solely defined by one title? It's fucking awesome that Chaz isn't just a one dimensional person. So much talent.
Bear Boy Couldn't say it better ourselves! A creator in all senses of the word.
I love Chaz. He's an influence to me fr fr
very very very awesome video. thank you so much for sharing! TORO Y MOI ROCKS!
Damn this is too good! He is truly an artist! Got to agree on many things.
***** Thank you Gustavs!

The Hawaiian sounding intro song sounds like essence by the Cocteau Twins
So so so good! This channel is just going to keep growing with these kinds of videos! keep it up
Bearjulio Thanks man! Much much much more to come, so stay posted!
This is amazing. I just finished watching the newest short film on his website (and Vimeo) and decided to see if there was any other stuff that I missed on him. This got past me somehow, but nonetheless is fantastic. Love this guy. Love what he had to say about skateboarding. I used all the time when I was little and slowly fell out of it. Recently have been looking to get a board and pick up the hobby again. Gotta wait till it gets warmer out though.
what a great video, chaz is such an inspiring artist!
I'm surprised you guys don't have more subscribers anyways well directed video. Wanna see more Chaz.
Thank you for this series. It has been a pleasure to watch and extremely inspiring.
My kind of video! Chaz always amaze me :) Thanks for awesome works you put here!
Raras Tria Pramudya Glad you like it, Raras! More to come.
I can't get enough of this channel! I come here to get lifted and inspired
OhHauteChic Thanks so much!
Chaz reminds me a lot of Elliott Smith for some reason. I mean this in the best way possible. He seems like such a genuine guy.
Nice work on this, incredible short film!
Madeleine Peters Thanks Madeleine!!
that voice though. thank you.
Onyx Andra thanks for watching, girl
this is why i love chaz. just art.
That first song!!!! Anyone!! For the love of god it's like I have someone pooring syrup in my ears while I listen to it help what is it??
dale wesolowski same, tried looking through Alex Doucette's soundcloud but there is nothing like this
+Ginkgo Balboa i think it's just some kind of demo stuff chaz made
+Gustav Granvik it's too fucking dope
Ginkgo Balboa so fucking dope not same genre but goddamn for those kind of vibes listen to Getz/Gilberto
Duude, glad you enjoy Getz! Bossa nova is too hot. You listen to jazz a lot?
The visuals for this are on point, had me hooked from start to end!
What was that first song? It was so amazing.
This has got to be one of the coolest videos I've seen in a while, very inspiring. I'm curious, how did you all grade/color your footage to look like that? I almost thought it was shot on film until I read the description. Very beautiful :)
what is the song in the intro? omg it's so ethereally beautiful
i love him so much, this is so beautiful
Going through a rather tough time and this video gets me through the day so much its amazingggggg
toro y moi gives me so much motivation
The way this was shot is fucking beautiful.
tkilla100 Dream team working on this project.
Toro is the best.
Kristaafaa Rustymuffin 100%!
a god of the creative spirit. see you soon, however it happens x
True Artist!
I've been watching this video for 2 years now, can someone PLEASE post a tracklist. I'm desperate.
The color grading/film effect on this is so on point
How do you do that effect ??
Right not too much and not too little
this is awesome. makes me want to just get out there and make music
Gorgeous!
Toro Y Moi - a real artist.
I love this human being
anyone know the first song?
What was the color grading process like for this video? The whole time I was watching it I thought it was shot with either 16mm or 35mm. Then I was astonished when I found out that it was filmed in digital. I assume that it involves around VisionColor LUTs? Or was it done completely manually? I really enjoyed the video, sensational music, filming, editing and especially the color! Toro y Moi is the man!
Toro y moi is the man!!!
This is so great!
***** Thank you Megan!
What was this shot with? Looks great!
I love Chaz

Well done Liam
"good music is progressive, and classic... good music is timeless" damn
Beautifully simple
Patrick Kiel Thanks Patrick!
What is the song playing in the beginning of the video?
Damn man really powerful.

That intro reminds me of ''Garden City Movement - Move On''
this is fantastic. edited really well i love the visuals.
Malakhai Pearson Thanks Malakhai!
