Like is he the one who kinda made it up or perfected it?
Cortez Johnson from what I know he pioneered the contact mics for his music but he also uses circular breathing, a technique that allows instrumentalists to have a constant tone through inhaling and exhaling at the same time by holding air in your cheeks, it’s super complicated. That on top of the mic singing makes his music one of a kind.
@@sledgehammer5033 thats insane I can hear undertones and melodies in his work that stands out from any brass instrument ive ever heard in anything but to get more knowlage on how hes doing it and what hes doing makes it even more impressive no wonder his name is starting to stand out this style of music isnt as popular and if his name is jumping out of the crowd there's probably a reason
This just in: This artist is an absolute genius with his articulation of notes. He expresses a sinister yet beautiful aspect of the human experience. He can really play that sax.
The Axiom Report The absolute genius of the artist is that you want to believe so badly but in reality he could just be having fun doing what he loves. While you take so much meaning that will carry through your life , he thinks nothing Who knows
Damn, I’ve been a fan of Colin Stetson and Junji Ito for years, and out of the blue my buddy sends me the Uzumaki teaser. One of those seemingly impossible artistic matchups that actually came true
Dude, I don't know you but I'm genuinely happy for you. I've had that magical artistic mashup happen before with other artists: it's incredible! I've been a Junji Ito fan for decades, but hadn't heard of Colin Stetson until the teaser... Now I'm a huge fan of both. I've been slowly making my way through Stetson's albums and damn! Stetson is a genius and a BEAST.
Only makes me think about how dissapointed i am in not seeing the kojima x del toro silent hill game, like fuck man, it was meant to happen, 2 of the absolute best people to work on reshaping and revolutionizing the silent hill formula for years to come.
@@heropath34.vaselisc.35 Hereditary is an artsy horror film from 2018. While there is a supernatural element, the film tackles the ideas that you can inherit problems and dysfunctions from your parents, and that you can pass them on to your kids. The final scene, witch is bizarre and surreal, has music composed by Colin Stetson. Its called Reborn and its amazing. One of the comments from the video describes as watching a sunrise in hell. Check it out: ua-cam.com/video/MVnSFj6XQZY/v-deo.html
@@WobblesandBean how is that unfortunate? its great work. I never understood this attitude of "i found it first and how i found it is far superior so none of you would understand" it's such a knee jerk reaction. If it's introduced to people by another form of media who gives a fuck? I am pretty sure the artist does not mind and rather it continue on gaining more exposure. So we can all enjoy it, that's what i come to understand about people. Doesn't matter how you found it as long as it leaves an impact and that's what artist want generally is to be appreciated not by one lens or point of view but by multiple. It's a good thing. It's a great manga. At least it's not some lolita crap
I love the ways it feels. To me it's not scary, It's more like the nature of the universe. That's what it sounds like. This man knows to play with the rythm of the universe
It’s unsettling because it feels so cosmic, it’s just organized chaos that doesn’t resolve and seems like it can go on forever in many different directions and it leaves your senses confused.
They definitely should have this man record for more horror movies. Sounds positively disturbing , pure genius. I can imagine so many good horrific disturbing scenes with this beautiful piece of music.
I find this music peacefully trance inducing... Interesting... Stetson's work in horror is second to none, though. Colour out of Space is a masterpiece of film and music.
It doesn’t even sound like a saxophone at first if you’re unconsciously listening, sometimes it’s angry strings, other times it’s voices being whispered from heaven, it’s so ethereal and gentle and yet so abrasive and disturbing, savagely beautiful, it feels like peaking on MDMA
Though the more traditional ways of playing a saxophone are beautiful, by straying away from what's right and wrong, Colin has the ability to make it sound like a otherworldly instrument and it's amazing
I'm seeing why this guy has been selected to make the music for Uzumaki. Mostly what he plays sounds like it's spinning around and around, slowing becoming a little more mad the deeper it gets.
I heard michael wilbur play like this at the end of his psyos video (3d printed sax mouth piece). No contact mics but very similar. First time id encountered anything similar. The guy plays EDM sax dance music normally so i was surprised
@@kazkisone4502 reverberation is not just a pedal, it's first and foremost a natural occurance of sound reflecting off of every object. play that sax in a place with minimum absorption surfaces and spacious enough for waves to diffuse, you'll get your reverb with no pedals. big empty room, brick walls, high ceiling, I wouldn't be surprised if he recorded in the same place the video was shot also there's absolutely some post-production reverb on both sax and vocals here
Admittedly although regretfully, my first exposure to Colin Stetson was the trailer for Junji Ito's Uzumaki. Years later and I believe his music has an unnatural transcendental quality.
I have always loved this track. Watched "The Alpinist" in the cinema last night. When it came on during one of the climaxes it hit hard. Thanks for the beautiful music.
This is the music I'd imagine hearing as I'm dying and slowly transcending to the heavens where I'll start my walk across the clouds to the golden gates. I really need to listen to this while high.
@@randomxboxguy2078 That's not entirely true, a weeb is obsessed with Japanese culture, such as their language, traditions, foods, history, and so on. But yeah being obsessed with Manga and anime could label you as a valid weeb, but simply liking an anime doesn't make you a weeb. Seems like Benjamin is pretty ignorant in not understanding that
Stetson is a must-see live. I believe it will be my 5th time in about 10 days at the Barbican when he plays the Hereditary soundtrack with the London Contemporary Orchestra. Last time I saw him here in London, someone said they overheard on the radio someone say that "you haven't lived until you've seen Colin Stetson live" - I tend to agree. It's an otherworldly experience, hardly believable.
it was *otherworldly*, you just completely get lost in it he inhales, and rockets into a beautiful piece like this, and before long you’ve lost your sense of time; he’s brilliant
Definitely recommend seeing him play live if you can sometime! Hearing this song being played in front of me was literally jawdropping, it felt like being swept around by gusts in every direction at about a thousand feet over ground.
This guy made the OST for "Hereditary". The music of the last scene - when P̶e̶t̶e̶r̶/Charlie/Paimon is crowned - is so sublime it gave me goosebumps. Amazing work.
thats why you see his cheeks puff up every now and then. HE switches from breathing out with his diaphragm to breathing out with his cheeks. he does that while breathing in
Here after watching the alpinist. Marc scaling Torre egger with this song playing in the background is pure inspiration and a definite drive for me now to becoming an alpinist. R.I.P Mark Andre Laclerc
This is such a perfect example of Colin Stetson’s style that can be found in anything he’s contributed his music to, I.e. Hereditary, or more recently The Menu (which I think is his best film score to date)
This was stunning! I heard it randomly playing on my Alexa! I have since subscribed to your UA-cam page, will certainly listen to this again! Thank you! Loved it!
Love his use of overtones especially on the alto. It’s such a big part of his distorted sound. Been trying to incorporate some oh his style into my tenor playing as well. Still haven’t gotten circular breathing down tho lol 😔
This is timelessness, captivating humanity through the ages.. Pure pain and beauty coexisting... I'm making a manga, with the dream of hopefully creating someday a feature anime movie. And if so you will be the first I will contact to create its sound. Thank you for this, it's inspiring!!
The fact that you can make a saxophone sound like this is amazing.
MrNickPeters no it isn't, he's doing circular breathing
Saxophones are surprisingly versatile.
One word: Reverb
That's why I play it. Incredible versatility
@@henk7591 Nope. Watch him play live. The sound NEVER stops.

his other song ‘reborn’ he made for hereditary is the scary one
This song is like water I would willingly drown myself in.
