I can absolutely respect not wanting to just become an all Ren reaction channel, but when you do eventually get back to him you will find that there really isn't a genre of music he can't do. And then you'll discover his band and busking, and you get to be amazed all over again :)
He does a lot of manual remixing and balancing between the audio sources post processing. He has 'room mikes' as well as his lapel mike for vox and the miked up guitar. He really likes to play with ambient acoustics - but isn't afraid to really push the mixing to create weird effects too, including extremely strong auto-tune like effects in some tracks. So while his style is 'one take, live' the result is clearly seldom that - even for his busking videos, he post processes them to some degree. There is a live performance for an audience of the Tales, which gives a clearer indication of the 'source' material he works with - it is good, but not as polished as the output from his mixing desk. To quote from 'Losing It' - and when I mix it, pour some juice in it. It's so prolific, it's that boujee shit...
So early on in the Ren introduction, you wonder what it would be like if Ren got with a dream team of storytellers! Shows your appreciation and understanding of his ability. Yes to War Pigs! ❤
Ren is an incredible storyteller . He even has the king if Musicals posting about him on Instragram. Andrew Lloyd Webber said " Ren is one of the most unique songwriters and storytellers I've sean in recent times " He also said he hopes Rens album goes to No1 which it did. You thought he was unique so you're in good company.
Ren isn't just a singular rabbit hole. It is a labyrinth.. Ren's music will imtroduce you to numerous other amazingly talented artists like Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins. Romain Axisas, Eden Nash, The Big Push, Viktus and others. Then, Ren's music covers so many different genres. His catalog is large and at every two weeks your progress will be slow moving. Plus. he is putting out a bunch of new music alll the time. I think once a week is a better pacing. But, I'm being greedy and it is your channel 😊 Thx for a great reaction!
at 16 minutes in you ask about guitar sound...in interviews I've seen he says he has a direct input recording device strapped to him to capture the guitar, then he very intricately mixes miniscule sections volumes or whatnot...he's crazy detailed in his production of his songs especially the live performance videos
Both the Ren songs you have reacted too are one shot videos. In fact Ren is kind of famous for that. Try Money Gsmes. All three in order with the middle one being the lyric video. The last will blow your mind.
@@LeeannG true but the boom mic alone isn't enough for Ren to be able to produce the end result, without having the guitar on its own source which Ren has spoken about in interviews...I was only addressing the way the guitar in those environments is able to sound so "clean". He also typically has a Lav mic on his body during these type of recordings and is able to tweak the heck out of each source to get the awesome sounding end result.
@@karenlittle8041 I completely concur with your suggestion for $$$Game's and would like to toss out the idea for Hz (sorry I'm blanking on your name right now) to do all three of them in a row in one reaction...its drastically different than the Tales, you just have to go through each one individually (and like Karen said, make sure the second is the lyric and not the shorter live version, which is definitely worth watching but I would recommend after getting through them all, and you could just do on your own time cause it is pretty short). Karen is spot on with her thoughts of part 3...especially if you have any interest in videography things and the one shot format difficulty and whatnot, MG part three is a masterpiece one take (technically it is a two take if you look into it...one cut towards the end Ren has mentioned himself) and there is also a fairly lengthy (2+ hours I think) video available that shows the preparation and behind the scenes stuff so you can witness the magic of Ren. On a side note, there is also a live performance available of the Tales filmed with a 360 degree camera where while watching the video, you are able to actually change the camera perspective live during the playback...I've never seen anybody react to that video whilst playing around with the camera but that could be a cool thing to check out Hz. Just throwing ideas out there :).
Yeah there's a lady who posts on some of these reactions that she lived above one of the shops in Brighton at the end of Violets Tale. People did call the police during these events because of what was being screamed but the police knew Ren and were often happy to see that he was the one causing the ruckus :)
I think that might be wrong I think the inspiration for this didn’t come a 14 year old stabbing a prostitute to death but the stabbing of a 14 year old school boy outside his school. From that spark Ren spun these tales.
@@supertuscans9512 No, Ren read an article about a 14 y.o. who stabbed a prostitute to death while robbing her. He was very effected by the story because of the young age of the boy. An officer who was interviewed was quoted as saying, "It's such a shame."
I think you’re wrong about that. It was a newspaper article but not about a boy stabbing a 14 year old prostitute to death. It was the murder of a schoolboy.
13:20 starting to get the feeling he’s an underrated guitarist? Wait to you see everything else he can do. The most beautiful thing I’ve seen is reactors that are artist themselves feel inspired by REN. Just subbed. I’ll be back in 2 weeks for the ride.
Nobody has really stepped up to fill the void left by the greats in music. But Ren is up at the plate. If no record label asshole puts a leash and collar on him and he stays true to himself and his own vision… he has every opportunity to stand among the best there has ever been. He raps, he makes his own beats, he sings, writes his own lyrics, plays multiple instruments brilliantly. He can rock out or chill out and do reggae. The writing and storytelling is next frigging level. Ren has Shakespearean levels of talent. Not to mention, he’s an exceptional human being with kindness and wisdom beyond his years. Amazing young man.
Trauma and struggle will do that. And he's definitely doing some great work. I don't see anybody putting a leash on him. He seems very authentic. People like that are exceptionally hard to cage.
They had to do Screeches tale a more than once. someone yelled at them. lol This whole series was based on a newspaper article he had read. It was about 18 months from Jenny's to Violet. I remember waiting for them. All of Rens video's like this are live and 1 takes. They may have to do them over a few times. But they are live and 1 take. Oh shit is the normal response. He does have alot of happier songs, some rap, some more on the music side. And when he does, the colabs and with his busking, 2 bands are fun. A lot of his colabs and band members have gone of and have been doing well. Remember he is independent. And there are stories behind that also.
It’s quite interesting that when decided to start taking music seriously around the age of 12/13, he had no intention of becoming an artist, he wanted to become a producer so that’s what he focused on. As a result his production / mixing skills will stand up with anyones. Throw in a bit of ADHD and he’s so obsessive about it that by the time he’s finished producing one of his tracks, he’s sick of it. It’s when he releases it and gets feed back from the public and reactors that it comes back to life for him and he can appreciate them again.
Ren has said in interviews he would love to combine storytelling, film, and music on Netflix by doing a musical Dark Mirror-style series. I believe he even mentioned that him and his main filmographer Sam, have proof of concept ready to go if they ever get a chance to pitch it.
What I love about this is at the end you build the whole backstory... mom dies, dad in jail, kids separated and in foster etc. It just expands beyond the song. Ren's version of Warpigs with The Big Push is one of my favourites. If you need an energy boost it's the one to go to.
Renegade here. You have about 249 songs to go. Ren is our lyrical genius and wonderful person. The Band he was in are fantastic. Wade in the water is one of my favorites. War pigs is so good. I’m subscribing to go on your Ren journey with you.
The Big Push is his band. But young Ren had another band called Trick the Fox, plus he does a lot of collabs as well with Bibi, Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins , Orlean, Eden Nash, Prof, etc.... And every song could be it's own style or genre... He's definitely not like the cookie cutter musicians!! Here for your ride down the Ren rabbit hole!!
I laughed when you mentioned what the local residents would say about Ren screaming obscenities and playing guitar late at night because I knew he was about to scream the c-word 🤦🏻♀️😂. He definitely commits to his music /acting! He has said that his philosophy is to ask for forgiveness rather than permission. Seems he is well known (as a loveable rogue?) to the police in Brighton, where he's lived for a number of years. He did an impromptu live performance of the tales which is also on his channel. Loads of fans turned up and he had them screaming Screech's lines.
That's an awesome video, the live version. Not enough reactors react to that one, and if they do, they are not aware they can turn the camera 360° with the mouse to look around and see all the fans. And Ren on the rooftop at the beginning...🤗😁
Love your reaction man 👍 Ren is a genius ! Multi talented, he plays guitar, bass, piano and drums, He's a singer, rapper, song writer, poet, producer, he makes his own beats and he produces his music and also, he's the best storyteller of our times ! He's rabbit hole is deep and full of masterpieces ! His band, The Big Push, is excellent, and yes War Pigs is fire but you have to listen to their live performance of I shot the sherrif, Road to Zion and Hip hop ! One vidéo, the sound is amazing ! Wonderful busking session ! And then, you could dive into his own music ... old or new, everyone is a journey with always deep lyrics and great melodies. Hope to see you react to some more Ren sooner than you thought 😉🤞 Thanks 😘
@@HZSoGoodMusic we all would appreciate it!!! your "little" channel a week or so ago now has thousands, if not tens of, people waiting on pins and needles for the next Ren reaction for real.
The story gets deeper the more you listen to it. The cycle of abuse as well as the cycle of violent behaviour as well as talking about the children both being 14 and in Violet's tale the year 2005 created the timeline. The effort that Ren and Samuel put in to these is so well thought out and planned to perfection. I also think that the live one-take format of both that you have reacted to are perfectly imperfect. Welcome to the Ren rabbit hole and I hope that the RENEGADES show you how supportive they/we are.
We've got,, Sam Tomkins, chinchilla, eden nash, Georgia strykes, the big push, Trick the Fox. ,,,,, there are more im just brain dead... Prof X Ren ,pain salesman just came out. prof is his own rabbit hole.
Ren said some people were yelling "Shut Up!" LoL Ren is a genius and his buddy Sam is a genius cameraman. Done live - rhey try for all 1 shots whenever possible. Guitar is plugged in to record sounds.
🤘🏼🔥🔥🔥🤘🏼 hey man, great reaction!! A little FYI I’m a 55-year-old metalhead. I grew up in LA watching bands like Slayer, Megadeth and Metallica in clubs before they were big,, but I have to say Ren is a very uniquely talented artist I really dig a lot of his stuff. Check out more when you get a chance.😁
Ren is amazing he can rap,sing,play guitar,play piano,write his own stuff,he does rock,rap,reggae and absolutely everything the talent is amazing and he is a amazing person enjoy your ride 😊
Apparently theres a blooper reel somewhere of someone throwing up their window and shouting shut the fk up, but its filmed in Brighton and we're used to crazy shit there
Renegade here for your ride.. will look forward to your reactions to Ren and anyone with whom he’s connected (The Big Push, Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, Eden, PROF).. you won’t be disappointed with any of them!! Also - some advice - don’t even try to put Ren into a genre box.. there isn’t one for him, and yes.. this is live, as are almost all of his videos.. ‘live, one take’!! His Money Game trilogy is a much watch. Great reaction - thanks for sharing!!
I just flew to the UK from the US to see Ren do his first solo show in 5 years. He's been in Canada for almost 2 years, getting medical treatment for his misdiagnosed Lyme disease. This kid has been through hell and back. And it's beautiful to see him getting his flowers!
Ren is wearing a Lav mic and the the guitar is plugged in to a mic and all the wires are coiled up around under the back of Ren's clothes. He does his videos in one take, after many tries, and of course his friend Sam, the videographer, is great, and they choose uninhabited buildings in Brighton with specific reverb, etc.
❤ It keeps getting better! This humble genius literally does it all!!!! And then there's The Big Push and his other talented group of friends to get to know!!! And yes he does a lot of live, one takes.
You HAVE got to do Money Game part 3! I was holding my breath waiting to see if you'd get it at the end, you totally got it and I loved watching the realization set in. Great reaction!
@@HZSoGoodMusic I know 3 is highly recommended, but please if you check it out go ahead and start with 1, then 2, and then 3 like someone else mentioned (Karen I think?) to get the deeper meaning in Rens thoughts on society. If I remember right, part 1 video/recording live took almost 100 takes over 3 days to finally get the end result, and it may have been closer to 200 attempts over those days to get it...MG 1 was his first "big" one take attempt I think, and it took them a lot to work out the details to do it properly, plus weather and other kinds of interruptions like those pesky humans coming around and screwing it up when they were attempting to film it "guerrilla style" in some garage. Part two as mentioned by others is a lyric video unlike any you have seen before, not just your typical "coolish font" type lyrics scrolling or whatever on the screen...there is a purpose behind every line and visual, just like all of Rens videos or lyric videos (Seven Sins is a masterpiece Lyric video compared to MG3 as a masterpiece one/two shot video)
Enjoyed this. You commented about him filming this on the spot. Close, he films them as one takes but they are very well planned out. Rens said to be very detailed and attention to those details. He doesn't happen to come across something it was purposely set up that way... His filming one takes are just another rad layer to Ren and his performances.
I don’t know if anyone answered your question about how his recording his guitar live. The answer is, he has it plugged in to a ZOOM recorder that he has hidden under his clothes. He drops the track into his DAW with the vocals from his lav mic and mixes the volume from there. The reverbs are mostly natural. He usually finds locations with good acoustics and goes from there. He’s pretty honest about using a lot of EQ and compressors to get it to sound as good as possible, but he feels like the performance should be live for authenticity sake. Not to say he doesn’t have great studio tracks. Dude is actually a pretty awesome producer as well. lol, you haven’t even seen him play piano yet!
It's actually good to just check out Rens videos every so often.just don't peek. He'll surprise you every time and that's why we love to see reactions to his music.❤ He was also in a band called "the big push" they were fire!
is a very very hard life. Renegades will lift you up bc that’s what Ren wants - to lift others. You will be supported. Also should check out some of his friends. Sam Thompkins is blowing up. He and Ren did some busking and writing and singing together. Also Chinchilla and Ren are amazing. Chinchilla and Sam both have their own music and doing well. Also Ren and Prof just put out Pain Salesmen - really cool. He also had a band called The big Push with Romain Axisa, an amazing human & Gorran Kendall, so cool. Tom the drummer isn’t around doing music rt now but he’s in the big push as the drummer. Thanks for doing this bc it sheds light on an illness like Rens, mine, others that suffer but his music spans across many genres
You've got another sub on the road to 100,000 subscribers! 🤠 As a Renegade for a year and a half (and a long-time musician), I've had to remind myself that there are other bands and artists out there that I love. I just can't remember who they were...😂 The Big Push's War Pigs performance is a great choice, taking you into a whole different dimension of Ren, also showing you how much of a showman he is. Thanks for an entertaining reaction!
@@HZSoGoodMusic Guitar--a very exotic and rare instrument, lol. Started playing trombone as a kid in the 1960's, then took up the guitar and singing in the '70's. All kinds of venues and genres. That's part of the reason Ren caught my ear in the first place. What's your instrument of choice?
also, thank you for kindly letting us know how you are not going to turn into a "ren" channel...kudos to staying true to yourself, and we all understand. I will check out some of your other things as I patiently wait for more ren lol. The hole is deep, so maybe you could throw us a bone and make a certain day a Ren Day (I've heard others use Wednesday, and call it Rensday which I thought was cool)...regardless be who you are and keep doing your thing. I just remembered seeing one of your video thumbnails about rigging a guitar or something...so may be a cool idea to do something like that and incorporate it with Ren's "rig" somehow...I dunno, the thought just popped in my head that it may be a cool crossoverish type thing for the Renegades to see your other side of videos.
hello dear!! renegades (like me) are relentless and in love with our man ren. and a bunch of us are sick/crazy and we found a friend in ren, who doesn't give us crap, but speaks about our dark lives and we feel seen. imho. the tales are my fave to see reactions to. fave reactors quotes: who the fk is violet? wtf? a lot of ren's stuff is out there cuz he sure is, one of the reasons i love him. i have company out there. ren is king of one take live videos. i will follow your journey down the hole. kathleen 🙃
The twins never grew up together up together .They never knew each other.😢 They had to be taken into care as violets "partner"was a murderer,the Mum was an alcoholic and the Father a paedophile. They were as good as left to fend for themselves. REN WILL ALWAYS MAKE YOU THINK AS WELL AS SMILE🙂
1:55 Respect your decision and subbed. I actually haven’t watched your Hi Ren reaction yet because you are a new channel and I was a bit sceptical that you might just be one of those who are jumping on the Ren train. I think pacing yourself and taking some time off is a good decision. I always appreciate authenticity. ♥️
Another RENegade that really likes your reaction style. This man has so much talent and there are many amazing, extraordinary, funny, heartbreaking tracks and videos that you must do a minimum of 1 weekly or you'll be an old man still playing catch-up. You never forget your first Ren. Much love ❤
Welcome sir, very cool reaction! Leavin some love from a fellow Ren fan. This rabbit hole goes deep and there are lots of turns within. Enjoy, when you return to it!
Please take your time with Ren. Thats fine, pace yourself. You may struggle but remember, none sound the same. Looking forward to seeing more and will check out what else you post. Waters is a dick... but yeah, still makes the grade. War pigs while Busking is a great choice - Ren also plays bass and Piano and a little drums.
Check out solo Ren in his music video ‘Mackay’, and the ‘I shot the sheriff’ busking video with his band The Big Push… an example of just how diverse and magical Ren & his music are 🤩
Another Renegade here. Just found this reaction. Will be watching Hi Ren next. Thanks for a great reaction! Subbed to follow your journey into the world of Ren. Enjoy the ride! ☮️❤️😎
I'm so glad you popped up in my feed and I decided to click on you. I'm a Renegade for sure, but I also like good music in general. I grew up in the 60's, 70's and 80's and so was totally spoiled by the plethora of music available during those decades. Ren is the first "new" musician that actually got me excited about music again. I'll listen to anything once (or if it's absolute crap, maybe only 1/2 way through 😁) so I'm here because of Ren, but I will check out your other reactions as well. Subbed - I really enjoyed your reaction to The Tales. Off to watch your Hi Ren reaction and I noticed Tom MacDonald and Falling in Reverse reactions in there, too. Looking forward to Warpigs. That whole red suspenders session was total fire.
Really glad to have you here! Thanks so much for checking everything out. Let me know if you want to see anything. Those were the best years in music IMO.
New Subscriber 😊. I've literally watched hundreds of reactions to the Tales over the past year and a half, and you're the first to make a Star Wars parallel; RESPECT for that 😂. PS: you're going to love War Pigs!
Ren is a genius, a fantastic performer, singer, actor, songwriter, composer, etc, etc he can do it all... These 3 videos and the other you saw "Hi Ren" are all live and 1 take! Like many other videos he has... the sound is so good because Ren is a perfectionist and he spends countless ours in his studio editing very second of sound to try to minimize volume fluctuations, sounds of the environment from getting into the video, etc... The places where he films are very specific, he also spends a LOT of time looking for these spots and then all the moves have a purpose, how he times to arrive at the stairwell in time for the echo in the last song, or when he arrives at the door to knock on it, etc... he's extremely professional, he and Sam, the videographer... they are a crew of friends that do some of the best work I've seen and on a budget! These 3 videos are filled with so many small tidbits that you might have missed by seeing this for the first time: - the way he uses his words and sets the scene for example when he could've simply say that Screeched stabbed Jenny he did it in a much more poetic way (and continues to do it in other instances in the songs, like when the Police is coming for Screech "the shrill cry of justice like a Banshee in the night"), just the same when jenny froze he says it in a fantastic manner that sets a scene in your head... The way he used the Guitar to knock on the door in Screech's tale, the frantic camera going around him while he stood still to show the state of mind Screech was in, how he used the phone in the middle of the song with pauses and all to wait for the call to connect... how he said the police were coming instead of just saying "the police are coming" is truly amazing, and how he said that Screech was going against the police without saying just the obvious words... how he alternates between characters and narrator both in voice and acting (see how at the end of the call to the girlfriend he's panting, gasping for air as Screech and in the next second he's completely composed when he becomes the Narrator again, he even gets his posture to be more upright)... how he uses the guitar to fire the shots and the cameraman getting shot and falling to the floor... an amazing storyteller. - The way he tells that history repeats itself on Violet's tale, from being abused by her father to the cycle repeating with her boyfriend that ends up killing her... the way he knocks on the door and then shows how he picks her eyelids and opens them and he's right there face first on the camera, out of focus... how he again uses the guitar to simbolize the sounds of violence when Stevie hits Violet, like a crashing pilot! - The way he rewinds time at the start of Violet's Tale when he says "We must rewind time for Violet's Tale" and then he makes the rewind time sound with the guitar and then starts Violet's story... then after Violet gets beaten up he uses the guitar again, this time to un-rewind time and gets us back to the start of the song when you heard the sounds of the hospital machines, now we know why those sounds were there and how everything happened... it's pure genius!!! - Also, it's inevitable to draw parallels between Jenny and Violet and Screech and Stevie (his father) and the grandfather... despite not knowing any of their relatives, Jenny was just like her mother, Violet was silent, didn't fight back when she was abused and ended up being killed... Jenny when confronted by Screech completely froze, like a statue, wasn't able to move, to say anything, to defend herself, just like her mother... Screech was violent and troubled and ended up a murderer just like his father... All very tragic!! - To tie it all up, the Tales from Jenny and Screech were recorded in 2019 and Violet's Tale is, because of that set in 2005 (two zero zero five), 14 years before because in Jenny's tale we are told that Screech was 14 years old! Cheers
Alright man, when you come back, seriously consider doing the Money Game vids (Pt.1, 2, and 3). Very, very good music, and the 3rd Money Game song is probably his best work.
There's great Music, great Music Videos, and there is great Art. Ren is something new. By amalgamating so many different aspects of music and art, he is able to create something unique and new.
The guitar is a Cordoba electric nylon string, he carries a wireless transmitter so they record the guitar direct rather than mic. The vocal audio is by lavolier mic live on set.
Thing about Ren he is not just one Genre. Can I suggest you check out his band The Big Push. Maybe the I Shot the Sheriff video. The one where the thumbnail has Ren in Red Suspenders.
Over 18 months in the world of Ren and not surprised to be surprised Its always so 🤯 and never disappoints even if I need to rewatch a few times to understand.
Yay, more Ren! Welcome to the Renegade family. When you watch the War Pigs busking session, make sure you're getting Ren in red suspenders! If you'd like a snapshot of the kind of human that Ren is, watch his One Million Subscribers video, "Defining Success." And I also think you will enjoy the Money Game trilogy when you eventually get to it (that trilogy does not need to be watched all at once). For other reactions, I would love to see you react to some Sleep Token. The Summoning is a common place for reactors to start, but you really can't go wrong with any of their stuff.
I just made #395 one hour after this was posted. The Ren Effect is Real, LoL. #SaveSickBoi Edit: By the time it took me to watch this 23 minute video, the sub count is up to #428.. ren, reN, REN, *REN!* ×͜× જ⁀➴ -ˋˏ🌈ᥫ᭡
I can absolutely respect not wanting to just become an all Ren reaction channel, but when you do eventually get back to him you will find that there really isn't a genre of music he can't do.
And then you'll discover his band and busking, and you get to be amazed all over again :)
"The RENEGADES got a hold of me" 😊😊😊😊
You're welcome ❤❤❤
Late as usual me, but... I know you lot got my back
65-75 hours weeks at work you know...
I like this new-one-of-us...
Big love from Spain
Everything you have watched by Ren so far have been live one shot.
Hi Ren is a mixture of three takes, according to Ren. All live, but he took the best bits and edited them together.
Hi Ren was AUDIO one-take. Video was mostly third take (out of four), but they added some peices from other three takes.
He does a lot of manual remixing and balancing between the audio sources post processing.
He has 'room mikes' as well as his lapel mike for vox and the miked up guitar.
He really likes to play with ambient acoustics - but isn't afraid to really push the mixing to create weird effects too, including extremely strong auto-tune like effects in some tracks.
So while his style is 'one take, live' the result is clearly seldom that - even for his busking videos, he post processes them to some degree. There is a live performance for an audience of the Tales, which gives a clearer indication of the 'source' material he works with - it is good, but not as polished as the output from his mixing desk.
To quote from 'Losing It' - and when I mix it, pour some juice in it. It's so prolific, it's that boujee shit...
Oh yes, it is live. All three tales. And many of his other stuff (Hi Ren incl.). He is just awesome all the way through and through. 💙
2 weeks?!?!?!!! You’re too good for that - WEEKLY Ren please!!!! 😁👍❤️
PS filmed live, self taught and self produced - he’s really really special
Yeah, it could be on Rensdays. 😂
So early on in the Ren introduction, you wonder what it would be like if Ren got with a dream team of storytellers! Shows your appreciation and understanding of his ability.
Yes to War Pigs! ❤
You will not be able to last 2 weeks when there is so much to discover you have only sratched the surface.
You unlocked about 10% off the skill of Ren :-]
In his pinkie finger, maybe LoL
Like playing Power Metal, no distortion, Drop D tuned Classical guitar...
As a Spanish Metal Head (and Renegade)...
Big highlight for me
Ren is an incredible storyteller . He even has the king if Musicals posting about him on Instragram. Andrew Lloyd Webber said " Ren is one of the most unique songwriters and storytellers I've sean in recent times " He also said he hopes Rens album goes to No1 which it did. You thought he was unique so you're in good company.
Ren isn't just a singular rabbit hole. It is a labyrinth.. Ren's music will imtroduce you to numerous other amazingly talented artists like Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins. Romain Axisas, Eden Nash, The Big Push, Viktus and others. Then, Ren's music covers so many different genres. His catalog is large and at every two weeks your progress will be slow moving. Plus. he is putting out a bunch of new music alll the time. I think once a week is a better pacing. But, I'm being greedy and it is your channel 😊
Thx for a great reaction!
at 16 minutes in you ask about guitar sound...in interviews I've seen he says he has a direct input recording device strapped to him to capture the guitar, then he very intricately mixes miniscule sections volumes or whatnot...he's crazy detailed in his production of his songs especially the live performance videos
and Sam Falvey had a boom mic on the camera
Both the Ren songs you have reacted too are one shot videos. In fact Ren is kind of famous for that. Try Money Gsmes. All three in order with the middle one being the lyric video. The last will blow your mind.
@@LeeannG true but the boom mic alone isn't enough for Ren to be able to produce the end result, without having the guitar on its own source which Ren has spoken about in interviews...I was only addressing the way the guitar in those environments is able to sound so "clean". He also typically has a Lav mic on his body during these type of recordings and is able to tweak the heck out of each source to get the awesome sounding end result.
@@karenlittle8041 I completely concur with your suggestion for $$$Game's and would like to toss out the idea for Hz (sorry I'm blanking on your name right now) to do all three of them in a row in one reaction...its drastically different than the Tales, you just have to go through each one individually (and like Karen said, make sure the second is the lyric and not the shorter live version, which is definitely worth watching but I would recommend after getting through them all, and you could just do on your own time cause it is pretty short). Karen is spot on with her thoughts of part 3...especially if you have any interest in videography things and the one shot format difficulty and whatnot, MG part three is a masterpiece one take (technically it is a two take if you look into it...one cut towards the end Ren has mentioned himself) and there is also a fairly lengthy (2+ hours I think) video available that shows the preparation and behind the scenes stuff so you can witness the magic of Ren.
On a side note, there is also a live performance available of the Tales filmed with a 360 degree camera where while watching the video, you are able to actually change the camera perspective live during the playback...I've never seen anybody react to that video whilst playing around with the camera but that could be a cool thing to check out Hz.
Just throwing ideas out there :).
Yeah there's a lady who posts on some of these reactions that she lived above one of the shops in Brighton at the end of Violets Tale. People did call the police during these events because of what was being screamed but the police knew Ren and were often happy to see that he was the one causing the ruckus :)
😂😂😂 No worries everybody. It's just Ren. Lol
It was based on a newspaper article about a 14 year old killing a prostitute. The article ended with the phrase, "It's such a shame."
I think that might be wrong I think the inspiration for this didn’t come a 14 year old stabbing a prostitute to death but the stabbing of a 14 year old school boy outside his school.
From that spark Ren spun these tales.
I just comment basically the same thing!!
@@supertuscans9512 No, Ren read an article about a 14 y.o. who stabbed a prostitute to death while robbing her. He was very effected by the story because of the young age of the boy. An officer who was interviewed was quoted as saying, "It's such a shame."
Very interesting. I never knew where his inspiration for this tale came from.
I think you’re wrong about that. It was a newspaper article but not about a boy stabbing a 14 year old prostitute to death. It was the murder of a schoolboy.
13:20 starting to get the feeling he’s an underrated guitarist? Wait to you see everything else he can do. The most beautiful thing I’ve seen is reactors that are artist themselves feel inspired by REN. Just subbed. I’ll be back in 2 weeks for the ride.
Nobody has really stepped up to fill the void left by the greats in music. But Ren is up at the plate. If no record label asshole puts a leash and collar on him and he stays true to himself and his own vision… he has every opportunity to stand among the best there has ever been. He raps, he makes his own beats, he sings, writes his own lyrics, plays multiple instruments brilliantly. He can rock out or chill out and do reggae. The writing and storytelling is next frigging level. Ren has Shakespearean levels of talent. Not to mention, he’s an exceptional human being with kindness and wisdom beyond his years. Amazing young man.
Trauma and struggle will do that. And he's definitely doing some great work. I don't see anybody putting a leash on him. He seems very authentic. People like that are exceptionally hard to cage.
Ren's guitar skills are self taught,it's so cool that you're helping others to learn to play,much respect! Thanks man!
They had to do Screeches tale a more than once. someone yelled at them. lol This whole series was based on a newspaper article he had read. It was about 18 months from Jenny's to Violet. I remember waiting for them. All of Rens video's like this are live and 1 takes. They may have to do them over a few times. But they are live and 1 take. Oh shit is the normal response. He does have alot of happier songs, some rap, some more on the music side. And when he does, the colabs and with his busking, 2 bands are fun. A lot of his colabs and band members have gone of and have been doing well. Remember he is independent. And there are stories behind that also.
It’s quite interesting that when decided to start taking music seriously around the age of 12/13, he had no intention of becoming an artist, he wanted to become a producer so that’s what he focused on. As a result his production / mixing skills will stand up with anyones. Throw in a bit of ADHD and he’s so obsessive about it that by the time he’s finished producing one of his tracks, he’s sick of it. It’s when he releases it and gets feed back from the public and reactors that it comes back to life for him and he can appreciate them again.
His production skills are what really let's us appreciate all his other talents. Absolutely phenomenal in so many ways. Great point.
Wait until you see his piano skills and electric guitar skills!
not to mention his savagery on bass, his most definitely passable drums 😁
And we can’t forget the melodica 🤭
Welcome to the family! ❤ The Big Push! War pigs is a fantastic choice
Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
Ren has said in interviews he would love to combine storytelling, film, and music on Netflix by doing a musical Dark Mirror-style series. I believe he even mentioned that him and his main filmographer Sam, have proof of concept ready to go if they ever get a chance to pitch it.
Ren's been seen wearing a shirt that says 'Hollywood spat me out', so that might be a clue!?
What I love about this is at the end you build the whole backstory... mom dies, dad in jail, kids separated and in foster etc. It just expands beyond the song. Ren's version of Warpigs with The Big Push is one of my favourites. If you need an energy boost it's the one to go to.
Renegade here. You have about 249 songs to go. Ren is our lyrical genius and wonderful person. The Band he was in are fantastic. Wade in the water is one of my favorites. War pigs is so good. I’m subscribing to go on your Ren journey with you.
The Big Push is his band. But young Ren had another band called Trick the Fox, plus he does a lot of collabs as well with Bibi, Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins , Orlean, Eden Nash, Prof, etc....
And every song could be it's own style or genre... He's definitely not like the cookie cutter musicians!!
Here for your ride down the Ren rabbit hole!!
Yup, everything you have seen is a live performance. Enjoyed your reaction.
I laughed when you mentioned what the local residents would say about Ren screaming obscenities and playing guitar late at night because I knew he was about to scream the c-word 🤦🏻♀️😂. He definitely commits to his music /acting! He has said that his philosophy is to ask for forgiveness rather than permission. Seems he is well known (as a loveable rogue?) to the police in Brighton, where he's lived for a number of years. He did an impromptu live performance of the tales which is also on his channel. Loads of fans turned up and he had them screaming Screech's lines.
That's an awesome video, the live version. Not enough reactors react to that one, and if they do, they are not aware they can turn the camera 360° with the mouse to look around and see all the fans. And Ren on the rooftop at the beginning...🤗😁
Somewhere in Jenny’s Tale someone is looking through an upper window while Ren walks by playing the guitar. lol.
@@moonyep5075 I only noticed the 360° feature midway through. Have to rewatch and find Ren on the rooftop 🤔
@@Anuta6675 right at the beginning, when he starts the story...😁
All three sections were not only live, but each was a continuous one-shot.
it's all done live, all 3 parts
Love your reaction man 👍 Ren is a genius ! Multi talented, he plays guitar, bass, piano and drums, He's a singer, rapper, song writer, poet, producer, he makes his own beats and he produces his music and also, he's the best storyteller of our times ! He's rabbit hole is deep and full of masterpieces ! His band, The Big Push, is excellent, and yes War Pigs is fire but you have to listen to their live performance of I shot the sherrif, Road to Zion and Hip hop ! One vidéo, the sound is amazing ! Wonderful busking session ! And then, you could dive into his own music ... old or new, everyone is a journey with always deep lyrics and great melodies. Hope to see you react to some more Ren sooner than you thought 😉🤞 Thanks 😘
Thank you so much for coming by, I can't wait to check out more. He really is a talented guy. More to come for sure!!
@@HZSoGoodMusic we all would appreciate it!!! your "little" channel a week or so ago now has thousands, if not tens of, people waiting on pins and needles for the next Ren reaction for real.
Jenny's Tale was based on a news report of a street walker knifed by a lad. The rest grew out of that and his amazing imagination.
The story gets deeper the more you listen to it.
The cycle of abuse as well as the cycle of violent behaviour as well as talking about the children both being 14 and in Violet's tale the year 2005 created the timeline.
The effort that Ren and Samuel put in to these is so well thought out and planned to perfection.
I also think that the live one-take format of both that you have reacted to are perfectly imperfect.
Welcome to the Ren rabbit hole and I hope that the RENEGADES show you how supportive they/we are.
Ren is a producer. He does post production on his live performances, even on some of his busking videos with The Big Push his former band.
Ooh. "War Pigs"! Cool. Be forewarned, it's more of a mashup than a straight up cover.
I was gonna say this too! Better to prepare the hardcore Black Sabbath fans upfront. I’ve never seen one be disappointed, but they get thrown off 😆
@@shannon9211 as a Sabbath fan myself, was initially thrown by the lack of distortion, but was quickly won over.
REN’s one million subscriber video is def worth a watch if you’d like to see more of Ren the man. Love your reactions 💜
He's got information online about the types of cameras and mics they use. You'll have to search for it, but it's there. He's a GENIUS!
I'll have to check that out. I think the way he does these is really fascinating.
We've got,, Sam Tomkins, chinchilla, eden nash, Georgia strykes, the big push, Trick the Fox. ,,,,, there are more im just brain dead... Prof X Ren ,pain salesman just came out. prof is his own rabbit hole.
Each of the Trilogy were done in one take, no cut and paste
That's awesome!
Ren said some people were yelling "Shut Up!" LoL
Ren is a genius and his buddy Sam is a genius cameraman. Done live - rhey try for all 1 shots whenever possible.
Guitar is plugged in to record sounds.
🤘🏼🔥🔥🔥🤘🏼 hey man, great reaction!! A little FYI I’m a 55-year-old metalhead. I grew up in LA watching bands like Slayer, Megadeth and Metallica in clubs before they were big,, but I have to say Ren is a very uniquely talented artist I really dig a lot of his stuff. Check out more when you get a chance.😁
I love all those bands! Thanks so much for checking out the channel. Glad to have you 🤘
Definitely must see The Big Push “I Shot the Sheriff” out busking in front of an impressive crowd. As a musician, you will love it.
One with red suspenders 😂😂
Ren is amazing he can rap,sing,play guitar,play piano,write his own stuff,he does rock,rap,reggae and absolutely everything the talent is amazing and he is a amazing person enjoy your ride 😊
the Star Wars reference at the end...priceless 🤣
Apparently theres a blooper reel somewhere of someone throwing up their window and shouting shut the fk up, but its filmed in Brighton and we're used to crazy shit there
The Big Push doing Shot The Sheriff/Road To Zion/Hip Hop (Make sure it's the red suspenders version) is ICONIC!
the guitar is plugged into a pack that he has on his back, that's how they get the guitar so well. plus Ren is just really good at mixing audio
Renegade here for your ride.. will look forward to your reactions to Ren and anyone with whom he’s connected (The Big Push, Chinchilla, Sam Tompkins, Eden, PROF).. you won’t be disappointed with any of them!! Also - some advice - don’t even try to put Ren into a genre box.. there isn’t one for him, and yes.. this is live, as are almost all of his videos.. ‘live, one take’!! His Money Game trilogy is a much watch. Great reaction - thanks for sharing!!
Bro, Ren is the multi-talented generational genre bending virtuoso you need in your life. TRUST THE RENEGADES.
Yes please, war pigs! The Big Push were just as amazing as Ren is by himself.
90% of his videos are live and 1 takes... Dudes amazing can't w8 to see more of ur reactions as u dive down the ren rabbit hole
Gonna be fun! Thanks for coming by!
I just flew to the UK from the US to see Ren do his first solo show in 5 years. He's been in Canada for almost 2 years, getting medical treatment for his misdiagnosed Lyme disease. This kid has been through hell and back. And it's beautiful to see him getting his flowers!
Loved this reaction❤ Ren the Bard
Ren is wearing a Lav mic and the the guitar is plugged in to a mic and all the wires are coiled up around under the back of Ren's clothes. He does his videos in one take, after many tries, and of course his friend Sam, the videographer, is great, and they choose uninhabited buildings in Brighton with specific reverb, etc.
I can't believe I get to see his first live performance in 5 years tomorrow. Another Renegade has liked and subscribed!
How was it!?
@HZSoGoodMusic it was mind blowing, a core memory in my life.
He heard about a young street walker and on one part, there was a quote. "It's such a shame". And went on from that
Welcome to the Renegade family❤❤❤
Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏🙏
❤ It keeps getting better! This humble genius literally does it all!!!! And then there's The Big Push and his other talented group of friends to get to know!!! And yes he does a lot of live, one takes.
You HAVE got to do Money Game part 3! I was holding my breath waiting to see if you'd get it at the end, you totally got it and I loved watching the realization set in. Great reaction!
That's on the list as well! And yeah, I was very interested and tuned in, when he said that I was blown away.
@@HZSoGoodMusic I know 3 is highly recommended, but please if you check it out go ahead and start with 1, then 2, and then 3 like someone else mentioned (Karen I think?) to get the deeper meaning in Rens thoughts on society. If I remember right, part 1 video/recording live took almost 100 takes over 3 days to finally get the end result, and it may have been closer to 200 attempts over those days to get it...MG 1 was his first "big" one take attempt I think, and it took them a lot to work out the details to do it properly, plus weather and other kinds of interruptions like those pesky humans coming around and screwing it up when they were attempting to film it "guerrilla style" in some garage. Part two as mentioned by others is a lyric video unlike any you have seen before, not just your typical "coolish font" type lyrics scrolling or whatever on the screen...there is a purpose behind every line and visual, just like all of Rens videos or lyric videos (Seven Sins is a masterpiece Lyric video compared to MG3 as a masterpiece one/two shot video)
Great reaction!! Ren is currently one of the leading causes of goosebumps on UA-cam.
loved n subbed bro, no way in this world your waiting 2 weeks for your next ren fix hahahaha, keep em coming please
Subed for much more Ren! At least one per week please! Ren has tons of raps and songs!
A good idea for Ren every 2 weeks as that leaves time for The Big Push the week in between. You will love what they do with War Pigs
Enjoyed this. You commented about him filming this on the spot. Close, he films them as one takes but they are very well planned out. Rens said to be very detailed and attention to those details. He doesn't happen to come across something it was purposely set up that way...
His filming one takes are just another rad layer to Ren and his performances.
Absolutely! Very cool how he does these. Another thing that makes him unique.
@@HZSoGoodMusic Bruh, you have barely even scratched the surface of his uniqueness 🤭🤑🤐🤐🤑🤩
I don’t know if anyone answered your question about how his recording his guitar live. The answer is, he has it plugged in to a ZOOM recorder that he has hidden under his clothes. He drops the track into his DAW with the vocals from his lav mic and mixes the volume from there. The reverbs are mostly natural. He usually finds locations with good acoustics and goes from there. He’s pretty honest about using a lot of EQ and compressors to get it to sound as good as possible, but he feels like the performance should be live for authenticity sake. Not to say he doesn’t have great studio tracks. Dude is actually a pretty awesome producer as well. lol, you haven’t even seen him play piano yet!
It's actually good to just check out Rens videos every so often.just don't peek. He'll surprise you every time and that's why we love to see reactions to his music.❤ He was also in a band called "the big push" they were fire!
I'm doing a big push video this week!
Great reaction Dude! I like your no nonsense attitude. Ren has a discography that goes back a decade. Thanks for the Trilogy. Peace!
looking forward to your reaction for the money game trilogy
is a very very hard life. Renegades will lift you up bc that’s what Ren wants - to lift others. You will be supported. Also should check out some of his friends. Sam Thompkins is blowing up. He and Ren did some busking and writing and singing together. Also Chinchilla and Ren are amazing. Chinchilla and Sam both have their own music and doing well. Also Ren and Prof just put out Pain Salesmen - really cool. He also had a band called The big Push with Romain Axisa, an amazing human & Gorran Kendall, so cool. Tom the drummer isn’t around doing music rt now but he’s in the big push as the drummer. Thanks for doing this bc it sheds light on an illness like Rens, mine, others that suffer but his music spans across many genres
And don't forget, Ruby J _and_ Eden Nash are both making appearances at SGF in a week... YAayyysS!
@@MissyGail4eva yes 🙌
You've got another sub on the road to 100,000 subscribers! 🤠 As a Renegade for a year and a half (and a long-time musician), I've had to remind myself that there are other bands and artists out there that I love. I just can't remember who they were...😂 The Big Push's War Pigs performance is a great choice, taking you into a whole different dimension of Ren, also showing you how much of a showman he is. Thanks for an entertaining reaction!
Thank you so much for checking out the channel. What's your instrument of choice??
@@HZSoGoodMusic Guitar--a very exotic and rare instrument, lol. Started playing trombone as a kid in the 1960's, then took up the guitar and singing in the '70's. All kinds of venues and genres. That's part of the reason Ren caught my ear in the first place. What's your instrument of choice?
also, thank you for kindly letting us know how you are not going to turn into a "ren" channel...kudos to staying true to yourself, and we all understand. I will check out some of your other things as I patiently wait for more ren lol. The hole is deep, so maybe you could throw us a bone and make a certain day a Ren Day (I've heard others use Wednesday, and call it Rensday which I thought was cool)...regardless be who you are and keep doing your thing.
I just remembered seeing one of your video thumbnails about rigging a guitar or something...so may be a cool idea to do something like that and incorporate it with Ren's "rig" somehow...I dunno, the thought just popped in my head that it may be a cool crossoverish type thing for the Renegades to see your other side of videos.
hello dear!! renegades (like me) are relentless and in love with our man ren. and a bunch of us are sick/crazy and we found a friend in ren, who doesn't give us crap, but speaks about our dark lives and we feel seen. imho. the tales are my fave to see reactions to. fave reactors quotes: who the fk is violet? wtf? a lot of ren's stuff is out there cuz he sure is, one of the reasons i love him. i have company out there. ren is king of one take live videos. i will follow your journey down the hole. kathleen 🙃
Hell yeah! I’ve watched a handful of reactions and noticed, I guess it’s because what I was thinking, “who’s Patrick and where is he?”
Thanks for doing this Ren reaction. Everything he does is amazing. I'm sure you will agree.
I haven't been disappointed yet, that's for sure! Thanks so much for being here! 🙏🙏🙏
The twins never grew up together up together .They never knew each other.😢
They had to be taken into care as violets "partner"was a murderer,the Mum was an alcoholic and the Father a paedophile.
They were as good as left to fend for themselves.
REN WILL ALWAYS MAKE YOU THINK AS WELL AS SMILE🙂
1:55 Respect your decision and subbed. I actually haven’t watched your Hi Ren reaction yet because you are a new channel and I was a bit sceptical that you might just be one of those who are jumping on the Ren train. I think pacing yourself and taking some time off is a good decision. I always appreciate authenticity. ♥️
Definitely need to see Ren with his band The Big Push
Coming this week!
Each segment is recorded live as one continuous shot. This is Ren’s trademark
That was a Jedi Reaction. Subbed my Approval
Another RENegade that really likes your reaction style. This man has so much talent and there are many amazing, extraordinary, funny, heartbreaking tracks and videos that you must do a minimum of 1 weekly or you'll be an old man still playing catch-up.
You never forget your first Ren. Much love ❤
I think I'm gonna do war pigs tomorrow. Then a solo ren next week.
@@HZSoGoodMusic
I really recommend How To Be Me (the live version with Chinchilla) x
Welcome sir, very cool reaction!
Leavin some love from a fellow Ren fan. This rabbit hole goes deep and there are lots of turns within. Enjoy, when you return to it!
Thank you so much for being here! I'm enjoying it very much 🙏
Ren is so good picking spots for the echo and reverb
His masterpiece can be found in "Money Game part 3." Enjoy!
"Oh shit"😂
Go down the REN rabbit hole you won’t regret it - also he so talented he literally covers and genre he wants try a fun one like ‘losin it’ ❤
Definitely going! It's been fun so far. 🙏
Can’t wait for your war pigs reaction, it’s amazing!
Please take your time with Ren. Thats fine, pace yourself. You may struggle but remember, none sound the same. Looking forward to seeing more and will check out what else you post. Waters is a dick... but yeah, still makes the grade. War pigs while Busking is a great choice - Ren also plays bass and Piano and a little drums.
Ren and Sleep Token reactions will definitely draw a cult following. They're my two most recent obsessions, and can't recommend them both enough.
Check out solo Ren in his music video ‘Mackay’, and the ‘I shot the sheriff’ busking video with his band The Big Push… an example of just how diverse and magical Ren & his music are 🤩
Both are on the list! Looking forward to doing them for ya! 🙏🙏🙏
Ren Chooses his locations for their acoustic properties and yes this one is also one of many live one take songs.
Another Renegade here. Just found this reaction. Will be watching Hi Ren next. Thanks for a great reaction! Subbed to follow your journey into the world of Ren. Enjoy the ride! ☮️❤️😎
Thank you so much! 🙏🙏🙏
there is no comparing ren to anyone else he is one of a kind for sure
I'm so glad you popped up in my feed and I decided to click on you. I'm a Renegade for sure, but I also like good music in general. I grew up in the 60's, 70's and 80's and so was totally spoiled by the plethora of music available during those decades. Ren is the first "new" musician that actually got me excited about music again. I'll listen to anything once (or if it's absolute crap, maybe only 1/2 way through 😁) so I'm here because of Ren, but I will check out your other reactions as well. Subbed - I really enjoyed your reaction to The Tales. Off to watch your Hi Ren reaction and I noticed Tom MacDonald and Falling in Reverse reactions in there, too. Looking forward to Warpigs. That whole red suspenders session was total fire.
Really glad to have you here! Thanks so much for checking everything out. Let me know if you want to see anything. Those were the best years in music IMO.
Welcome to the RENegades! Love the reaction. Subbed ❤
New Subscriber 😊. I've literally watched hundreds of reactions to the Tales over the past year and a half, and you're the first to make a Star Wars parallel; RESPECT for that 😂. PS: you're going to love War Pigs!
Ren is a genius, a fantastic performer, singer, actor, songwriter, composer, etc, etc he can do it all...
These 3 videos and the other you saw "Hi Ren" are all live and 1 take! Like many other videos he has... the sound is so good because Ren is a perfectionist and he spends countless ours in his studio editing very second of sound to try to minimize volume fluctuations, sounds of the environment from getting into the video, etc... The places where he films are very specific, he also spends a LOT of time looking for these spots and then all the moves have a purpose, how he times to arrive at the stairwell in time for the echo in the last song, or when he arrives at the door to knock on it, etc... he's extremely professional, he and Sam, the videographer... they are a crew of friends that do some of the best work I've seen and on a budget!
These 3 videos are filled with so many small tidbits that you might have missed by seeing this for the first time:
- the way he uses his words and sets the scene for example when he could've simply say that Screeched stabbed Jenny he did it in a much more poetic way (and continues to do it in other instances in the songs, like when the Police is coming for Screech "the shrill cry of justice like a Banshee in the night"), just the same when jenny froze he says it in a fantastic manner that sets a scene in your head...
The way he used the Guitar to knock on the door in Screech's tale, the frantic camera going around him while he stood still to show the state of mind Screech was in, how he used the phone in the middle of the song with pauses and all to wait for the call to connect... how he said the police were coming instead of just saying "the police are coming" is truly amazing, and how he said that Screech was going against the police without saying just the obvious words... how he alternates between characters and narrator both in voice and acting (see how at the end of the call to the girlfriend he's panting, gasping for air as Screech and in the next second he's completely composed when he becomes the Narrator again, he even gets his posture to be more upright)... how he uses the guitar to fire the shots and the cameraman getting shot and falling to the floor... an amazing storyteller.
- The way he tells that history repeats itself on Violet's tale, from being abused by her father to the cycle repeating with her boyfriend that ends up killing her... the way he knocks on the door and then shows how he picks her eyelids and opens them and he's right there face first on the camera, out of focus... how he again uses the guitar to simbolize the sounds of violence when Stevie hits Violet, like a crashing pilot!
- The way he rewinds time at the start of Violet's Tale when he says "We must rewind time for Violet's Tale" and then he makes the rewind time sound with the guitar and then starts Violet's story... then after Violet gets beaten up he uses the guitar again, this time to un-rewind time and gets us back to the start of the song when you heard the sounds of the hospital machines, now we know why those sounds were there and how everything happened... it's pure genius!!!
- Also, it's inevitable to draw parallels between Jenny and Violet and Screech and Stevie (his father) and the grandfather... despite not knowing any of their relatives, Jenny was just like her mother, Violet was silent, didn't fight back when she was abused and ended up being killed... Jenny when confronted by Screech completely froze, like a statue, wasn't able to move, to say anything, to defend herself, just like her mother...
Screech was violent and troubled and ended up a murderer just like his father...
All very tragic!!
- To tie it all up, the Tales from Jenny and Screech were recorded in 2019 and Violet's Tale is, because of that set in 2005 (two zero zero five), 14 years before because in Jenny's tale we are told that Screech was 14 years old!
Cheers
Alright man, when you come back, seriously consider doing the Money Game vids (Pt.1, 2, and 3). Very, very good music, and the 3rd Money Game song is probably his best work.
There's great Music, great Music Videos, and there is great Art. Ren is something new. By amalgamating so many different aspects of music and art, he is able to create something unique and new.
The guitar is a Cordoba electric nylon string, he carries a wireless transmitter so they record the guitar direct rather than mic. The vocal audio is by lavolier mic live on set.
That's what I figured, some sort of wireless. But him moving so far, that has to be a mobile receiver as well. Very cool.
@@HZSoGoodMusic probably strapped to the camera man.
Welcome to the rabbit hole my man. Be prepared to be amazed, emotional, stunned, and to just have fun.
Thing about Ren he is not just one Genre. Can I suggest you check out his band The Big Push. Maybe the I Shot the Sheriff video. The one where the thumbnail has Ren in Red Suspenders.
I have a couple on the list. I think I'm gonna do my first video tomorrow. And he's definitely not a small niche, I stand very corrected. Lol.
Yes... Live one shot videos!
Over 18 months in the world of Ren and not surprised to be surprised
Its always so 🤯 and never disappoints even if I need to rewatch a few times to understand.
I'm very intrigued and looking forward to my journey through more of this.
One of the things we love about Ren is that he does everything live and makes sure it is perfect.
Yay, more Ren! Welcome to the Renegade family. When you watch the War Pigs busking session, make sure you're getting Ren in red suspenders! If you'd like a snapshot of the kind of human that Ren is, watch his One Million Subscribers video, "Defining Success." And I also think you will enjoy the Money Game trilogy when you eventually get to it (that trilogy does not need to be watched all at once). For other reactions, I would love to see you react to some Sleep Token. The Summoning is a common place for reactors to start, but you really can't go wrong with any of their stuff.
I just made #395 one hour after this was posted. The Ren Effect is Real, LoL. #SaveSickBoi
Edit: By the time it took me to watch this 23 minute video, the sub count is up to #428..
