No hating in here just "Peace, Love and Profit" ;)

Matthew, 12:25: “And Jesus knew their thoughts, and said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand.” If they want to built a New World they have to destroy the old.

many folks say this song is disparaging towards humans... but, while yes, we can be ...um... decisive... this song is from the angel's pov... you know... those chumps that don't have a choice in anything. seems like someone is jealous that they can't fight over everything for no reason, just because you can.

This is one of the best of the dozens and dozens reaction videos for this song. The alternative takes of the same sessions emphasize how the stars aligned perfectly on this particular take and how unique, improvised and creative the solo really is.

This was awesome! I love when Ren's music reaches understanding ears!

I first heard Royksopp's music in a TV ad in Ireland in 2001. It took me months to identify the bands name but once i did, I've been hooked ever since. They're still very much active, and literally just dropped new album with 30 odd tracks last week called Nebulous Nights - well it is an ethereal rework of their last 3 in 1 album "profound Mysteries". As time goes on their music is just getting better. If you're interested in reacting to more of their work, I'd recommend "The drug" from 2010 - it's not actually my favourite but it's certainly up there. It reminds me of euro or even british 90's electronic dance music, and the video gives a dystopian feel to it mixed with the nostalgic music. There's not many electronic groups out there that produce songs with such depth and warmth as Royksopp, plus they have some excellent guest singers like Roybn, Jamie Irrepressible, and the brilliant Susanne Sundfør . There's surprisingly not that many reaction video's out there to but yours is probably the most thoughtful, so thanks for this :)

Great reaction to this true GENIUS 👍 Liked & subscribed in anticipation of you reacting to more Ren Cheers 🍻😀

Oh yeah, many singles have come out. El Estepario Siberiano has a band! The Cost. Pretty good, you can meet the band and hear them talk. MY NEW BAND'S FIRST SINGLE - THE COST | NOT FOR ME

I've never seen this guy, but I could watch him break down tool songs all day😮

Using single-double pedal in that speed mean that you need to put your foot on switch between two beats to activate double speed on pedal that's the action of the feet need to be out of sync with rhythm in that time. Meanwile, did you see how he pull second stick from his right hand after he use both of sticks on that hat? I suppose that you did not realise when this moment happend and where he pull this second stick.😀

3:21 ... I believe Larnell Lewis had 5 hours on a plane to learn not only this song but the whole set!

Four keyboard players

on the snare, drummer has more than one, with one having a cymbal on the drum head

"where are their amps?" in these situations they will either be in another space (for isolation) or no real amps at all, instead digital modelers with DI to recording board

This theme transport you in the legendary Far West.

Ren is not claiming that money is the root of all evil. it’s our reaction to money that CAN lead to evil. he clearly describes both negatives AND positives that can come from money in the song

There were FOUR keyboard players on this session: Cory Henry (the soloist), Shaun Martin (the guy shaking his head at Cory's magic), and by the way, he was NOT playing that bass ostinato under the keys solo, that was being done by either Justin Stanton or Bill Laurence, and Mike League *is* also playing that ostinato on electric bass

For a look at how stuff like this is made see: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m6HIXqWAg9Gdmqs sax player Bob Reynolds on the making of the 2022 album Empire Central

Also, to your question "How different the final thing is from what we are about to see" - what you hear here *is* the final audio product, after all post-production. The actual question would be "how different is the monitor mix that everyone in the room is hearing during the recording from this final post-production audio that has been synced to the original video?"

To the comments at the beginning about recording in the studio (layers/multiple sessions vs 2 pencil mikes, you get what you get, etc) Snarky IS doing something in between - this is why you see everyone with headphones. All tracks are recorded live with the audience (for the energy), no edits, no overdubs, but they DO do multiple takes - they typically rent a space for multiple nights, do 2 sets a night, so they get 4 or more takes of every tune and can pick the best one. BUT, the mics in the room are for the horns and drums / percussion only, all the guitars and keys are NOT heard in the room, but are captured in the recording process (and heard in the overall monitor feed mix over the headphones); THEN they can do a lot of post-production - EQ, mixing, they even do stuff like "re-amping" the guitars (take the recorded direct guitar and run though some other amp in post-production). There are some very interesting videos out there, e.g. this one which is an extended interview with their recording engineers about the sessions done in Dallas in 2022 : kzbin.info/www/bejne/eV6naKGVjq6YgZI

I enter into the Pat Metheny world for the very first time on july 1989 live in Montreal. I was absolutly speechless and since then, he is for me the best guitar player ever

That "other" keyboard player, has 5 Grammy's.

They learned this song as well as the whole set in about a week. The drummer didn't hear the song until the day before.

Ren is such a great artist this is powerful song. Great great reacts from both you ❤

I enjoyed your discussion on this. Rens songs are very profound with a lot of religious/christian references.

Please look up the song "Hi Ren". The power of Hope is also strong in that one, and I would love to hear the pastor's reaction.

Taak you❤❤❤

You need to show your friend Money Game 2, the lyric video…. Actually the whole Money Game series.

The things you think you’ll never say … get thrown out the window with Ren. He’s a modern day Bard. Bardcore. Really enjoyed your reaction. ❤

My girlfriend broke up with me the other night. This song is pushing me on. She will see me.

Great reaction. Ren is at a level of talent like no other and we are the lucky ones to have him choose to share that talent and his hardships in such a positive way.

Enjoyed your reaction, Open minded perspective. First timer with you guys and I'm a RENegade for life. Not sure what other Ren stuff you've seen so if you haven't yet, Hi Ren is an absolute must see and Suicide is another true to life type piece.

"If Paul was a Welsh rapper" - Love that & the discussion. I predict the good pastor is going to become a Renegade. Ren's sister lives off the grid, as simply as possible.

Heddwch, Peace brothers and sisters in the ancient language. Diolch... Thanks for this. REN engages positive challenge about the narrative of all our lives.

Really enjoyed this reaction and the wonderful insights and discussion with Sean.

"Dear God" IS Ur next one?

❤❤❤

❤❤❤

Thank you guys for your perspective. I enjoyed it. Take care

Volto! Is Danny’s fusion jazz-rock band.

I have to second the no censorship comment, yes its bad language, but it's in context and therefore should be listened to. It's not swearing for the sake of it. It's expression.. Great reaction this time dudes.. Last one I watched was your Hi Ren, too many bleeps in that one.. Much better effort.👍🏼👍🏼😁

Beautiful analysis of this song and thing is it’s not only the US it’s an international affliction where you get that gut feeling…

Sorry i am late- but you are right and wrong the love of money can cause people to do evil things. but knowledge is the root of all evil because without knowledge there would be no envy , jealousy or want and desire. If there wasnt knowledge there would be no need. Renegade mic drop! And these next 4 years will be all about money and hate of thy neighbors. there is no room from prophets in profit. We must protect REN! LOL

Let the pastor check out 'Hi Ren'! Ren is a prophet ( and I don't mean it as blasphemy!) His health suffering brought him to the abyss and he thought he would die soon. So he created music that he wanted to be remembered by and it turns out that, while he will struggle for the rest of his life, he gave so many of the suffering a reason to fight on! He has another song ' suic..e which was banned from yt for a while. Until it turned out that this song turned many away from the ledge!

speedy, clean and tasty, what more do you want?

Ren wants us all to be more actively kind toward one another. He acknowledges how complicated things have become everywhere and emphasizes tolerance. He is very against the two party system. He wants us to work as a collective mind to form a better system not so easily corrupted. He’s aware of the complications involved in his little ask. Gotta love him!🤣❤️

For something completely different, Ren had a band called The Big Push, they do a harmony track called Swan song with a couple of the band members well worth a listen. They do original and covers and did a lot of busking in Brighton and London.

First time coming across yalls channel and I love the Pastors perspective of this being a letter from Paul to Timothy. What a great perspective, makes you look/listen to the song a bit different 💛 Big Up on you guys for not censoring Rens lyrics, they aren't Christianly but it really drives the point home 💛

Really enjoyed this guest and reaction to my favorite artist

Thank you that was great… 🫶🏻
