Clint Mansell - The British Masters Season 2 - Chapter 8

[@firebaby7]

clint mansell is easily my favourite modern composer... death is the road to awe, lux aeterna, dead reckoning, welcome to lunar industries (three year stretch), first snow...? sigh, his music nourishes my soul....

[@randomn5611]

firebaby7 it never fails :)

[@user-vh2pn2ty4d]

firebaby7 MOON 🙌🙌💙💙💙👯👯

[@jackjude]

you are correct :)

[@lazy_gamer_dad]

PWEI is an amazing part of my own life's soundtrack and then Clint decides to make soundtracks that can make my cry out of the sheer beauty and tranquility of it all.

[@tomkillsjerry]

So modest for such a brilliant musician

[@lxworld]

Musician - as in he played the parts? Or computer musician/arranger as in he sampled and added loops to someone else's parts? If I sample and re-arrange someone else's parts - in my book it doesn't make me a musician as such. If I use someone else's work as a genesis and then develop/play on it and make it into my own, that is different - you might even call it a remix!. Either way he seems to be doing very well for himself. Fair play to the man.

[@lizzy6333]

lxworld He composes the music.

[@natedertel4101]

lxworld you need to stop smoking so much crack. I must admit it did make me laugh though because it is a good example of the stereotypical insane youtube comment lol.

[@charoleawood]

Skipping over The Fountain is a crying shame.

[@rammsteinan4503]

Filth and Moon were also two great works done by Mansell

[@carlosfiol2891]

PWEI - one of the best bands ever! I first heard them when a friend who had moved from Germany to Panama loaned me a copied cassette of Cure for Sanity. I listened to it as I fell asleep, and I listened to the whole tape. Gave it to my brother who had brought back a cassette of Pretty Hate Machine from the US. 1990 was a helluva year for me. Weeks later I spotted This is the Day... at my local library on CD, I stole it! (Sorry Ft. Davis Library!! I'm a teacher now and making up for it!) Super happy to see this genius doing well. His scores are fantastic. Trent Reznor, whom I love, wouldn't be were he is if it wasn't for Clint Mansell. Thanks for this episode!

[@niallcochrane3331]

PWEI was a huge influence in my formative years and great to see Clint moving to bigger and better things. The Uk definitely punches above it's weight in music

[@kevandalzell7906]

Thanks! Would have loved more PWEI, but it's great to hear about Clint's composing too! The Poppies made a huge impact on this Victoria, Canada lad circa 1988. Finally saw them in 1991 in Vancouver, and as I worked for a record store, I got backstage. They (PWEI) invited us all nightclubbing, and I got to talk to Clint for about fifteen minutes on the trek to the club.

[@tobarstep]

I've got little to say about his composing career, but PWEI has been my favourite band for close to 4 decades now.

[@hamzailarzeg2606]

He didnt talk abt the fountain. So underrated for a brilliant movie, and the soundtrack is just genius.

[@klacker47]

A gem amongst the dross of ashcroft and gallagher. A true master

[@user-vh2pn2ty4d]

For me Clint , chemical brothers and the prodigy are my favorites. And I just love how he geeks out about high rise in every interview. He clearly really loves the film.

[@JesPulido]

I love his music. It's so deep and rich and moving.

[@JaneKellie-si1gt]

As A Top Musician He's Very Modest. A Good Interview 👍

[@ImranSahir1]

Lux Aeterna is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard and so it's one of the greatest pieces of music for me.

[@TheStellalegs72]

The poppies were a big part of my life during the late 80's in school then into the 90's were I followed then around the country. Brilliant vibe off every concert I went to, and an awesome time to be had. Thank you Clint for the best part of my life, I still listen to the poppies at 50 years of age, much respect

[@outpost3269]

I got into PWEI around the time of Box Frenzy but it was This is the Day! that really resonated with me. I remember listening to it and thinking certain tracks had a really cinematic element to them...The Fuses Have Been Lit, Inject Me, Wake Up! Time to Die...I knew in some way they were somehow destined for greatness or a wider audience. I remember they did an amazing cover of the theme from Magnum Force. Great band and Cliint is an amazing composer.

[@lucianolizana446]

Death is the road to awe and The last man are the best pieces arround!

[@CancunMimosa]

I've always been a fan of Clint film work but never looked into his life. Very cool to meet him and know more about his background in music.

[@Metaphix]

Together We Will Live Forever is my favorite piano composition of all time

[@SolarisDeath]

Mine as well. Inspired me to learn to play piano. It's the song I point anyone too when we talk masterful piano pieces.

[@htpark]

Bumped into Clint Mansell on my way to Longcross Studios. Even though we were conversing the entire time, he was very humble (& slightly jetlagged after his flight from LA) I didn't even realise who he was until near the end of our 10 minute walk from the station to the production office when he introduced himself as "Clint".

[@crose7412]

Which city are Longcross Studios in?

[@htpark]

@@crose7412 It's a film studio outside of London, UK.

[@blackascoal]

another fine interview mr doran

[@anthj78]

Really inciteful. Wasn't even aware of this series until today. Love Clint's work...

[@turkishpunisher6386]

You are amazing Clint, your work incredibly good. Hats off to you,sir!

[@chrismurray5846]

I miss him in PWEI. At least they got Richard March back? Still...

[@shareshare7278]

top lad and a true YAM YAM always been pushing the boundaries up the wolves Clint

[@TheOozaki]

Man... what a master! Just brilliant!

[@jannebunker9248]

I far and away prefer PWEI over Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy. Not saying they were better, just enjoyed them more.

[@Alex-cw3rz]

When you think of the music from Requiem for a Dream you don't imagine someone from the Midlands writing it, although Coventry is pretty depressing

[@codexnecro]

Was that a "The Body" t-shirt?

[@Barry101er]

Wonderful

[@karlkuttup]

not seen clint since 1994 95 at the rainbow pub in digbeth with fuzz and rankine and miles im sure of it a few good years ago great band live way ahead of there time

[@Gappasaurus]

Clint Poppy! 😎

[@KingHasi33]

his smoking aces soundtrack was insane :D loved the movie, loved the music even more!

[@Cbmk18]

The ending score was my fav...I thought I was the only one ..lol

[@DelusiUK]

Top quality interview.

[@darkcnotion]

iconic

[@socialweedia]

soooo good these

[@swilmers]

Brilliant stuff, thanks

[@PJPsounds]

Movie "Cremator" was Czechoslovakian not Yugoslavian. (off topic - both Countries don't exist anymore)

[@randomn5611]

"Stoker" movie caught my attention towards Mansell.

[@arsimahmetaj6272]

Legend

[@itslouisd]

he's awesome

[@Warp75]

In a class of his own.

[@Offensive_Username]

I'm late, when did Clint Mansell went from dreads to become a bear?

[@sevenaevin]

Clint Mansell the man!

[@TheKSChannel]

Moon soundtrack is awesome!

[@Marcellus-Wallace]

Living Legend. Great Interview. Alan Wilder Or Martin Gore Of Depeche Mode Next Please

[@ericdahlstrom1598]

Cynthia plaster caster said Jimi and Clint were ones who got * most* capture, I came in tied for 3rd,4th,she told me after playing shows w mastodon and Metallica.lol

[@howdydeloo2112]

Wonder if Hollywood has listened to wake up time to die or bullerproof

[@hamzailarzeg]

What a daaamn shame to not mention the fountain. The greatest work of all time in my opinion

[@IndependentGeorge76]

Gutted. Thought this was an interview with former Barnsley playmaker, Clint Marcell...

[@ramonaHQ]

IndependentGeorge76 🤣🤣🤣

[@smcic]

I agree with his comment about the internet

[@jackjude]

I swear bald men, with glasses and beards are taking over the creative scene. Hence my new look!

[@KablooeyFineNerdery]

it's funny how Grateful had done part man part machine (which was brill) and yet, Clint goes on and does this brill career.

[@CaptainObvious712]

Woah didn't even know that this was the same guy who worked on Mass Effect 3, just thought that it was two different guys with the same name. It's was just one of those weird things that I never really put together, regardless I absolutely love his work and this was an amazing interview

[@fraac]

beaveeer patrol

[@glenbaker8412]

We dig TV we dig remote control

[@pooyashirazi1991]

any Mass Effect lovers here?!

[@ClicStudio]

Pooya Shirazi Yes! I was looking to know if it’s really him who did an end once and for all:P

[@bigkivzero]

Fantastic interview. Please remove the reverse guitar next time. Drove me bonkers!

[@angussstudio6139]

interview Blu Mar Ten.

[@maxmatson1578]

I must ask!.. when they come to ethnically cleanse me! will you speak out¿ will you defend me?!!¡!

[@grizcuz]

He talked about Ballard being a visionary in this interview, but that song is very relevant to the UK today despite it coming out 25 years ago.

[@myaphextwin807]

Com Truise

[@MrAnwer96]

he is another beethoven ...

[@wagsouza3459]

CLINT FREAK !!!
