COFFEE WITH RICK BEATO

[@RickBeato]

Thank you so much for inviting me on to the channel Ola! Had a great time hanging out!!

[@OTTOAUDIO]

Rick, you're a legend man. Thanks for preserving music for us and future generations

[@shelbyavant5081]

We love you, Rick.

[@cmikesmith664]

Great interview

[@balmain2496]

Good man!

[@Mezziah777]

I studied for year, at a fairly renowned music university here in Sweden, and more than once, when we had theory lessons, the teachers would say: "if you want more examples of this, after the lesson, check out Rick Beato on youtube. He's got a great video about this" I think that's a pretty good seal of approval if any.

[@supergoat94]

Time for Rick to do a "What makes Ola great" video.

Ola Englund Interview

[@6kine6tic67]

Oh dude. There's so many reasons ola is great lol

[@CoolStuffDad]

That idea could be a series!

[@PuttinOnTheRiffs]

[@TylerJohnstonGuitar]

My Ola experience: I’m a very small KZbinr trying to get my footing with collaborating with companies. I sent out an email to a bunch of companies putting my name out there. Harley Benton’s response: “Nest time you are looking for a collaboration, be sure to not CC this email to other brands ;)” Solar’s response: “Thank you for reaching out. Unfortunately we’re not able to offer you endorsement at this time but feel free to reach back out in the future” It’s the little things.

[@Winterb0rn88]

Rick is what Rolling Stone could have been in the modern age + much, much, more. Love this.

Watching Rick briefly explaining why adults cannot develop perfect pitch using scientific data from linguistics only makes me appreciate his contents even more. I have a passion for guitar playing and linguistics (more specifically, language acquisition) and watching him answering Ola's question was great.

[@jonathandufern7421]

Rick is great because he appreciates music in general and is extremely open minded. He's not the most extreme metal guy but deeply gets it all. If you notice when he talks about death metal etc. he grasped at rhythm and complexity being just as important as other parts of music. He finds the diamonds amongst the coal in music which is why he's so good at what he does. He also can elaborate why stuff really works in music which most "reaction" people cannot do. Some do though and one I do like is the Charismatic Voice. She's great at what she does.

[@DogSlobberGardens-i7f]

I'd like to hear Rick produce and mix an extreme metal band. It could be very interesting to hear how his ear sorts out those kinds of voicings and tones. I have a sneaking suspicion it would be a lot clearer than your usual metal producers come up with, but still heavy as hell.

[@doh4828]

As an older guy myself, I would say it's either too late in the day. Don't have the prostate to not pee every 15 minutes . Or the fact that as you get older generally your body just doesn't cope as well with coffee. Or they already geeked out on good coffee before the show. Me personally, I love coffee, it doesn't love me.

@RickBeato mentioning Refused made me so happy. People have caught on to the record now I think, and it's such an important album for the genre. One of those life altering records if you like aggressive music.

[@search895]

I am happy to be one amongst those who loved the album when it came out. I listened the album a million times. I was into all punk and hardcore and i had a purist vein, but also a experimental one, both feeding each other in my brain. Those were times when people actually were asking "what is punk actually? What is it to be punk, to play punk?" and many brought very interesting proposals. Imho, The Shape Of Punk To Come is in pair with some of the albums by Fugazi.

[@LifeHawkeye]

Two of my favorite content makers sitting together. I think you can clearly see how much Ola respects Rick because Ola's demeanor was a little more "serious" I guess you could say. It's really cool that they respect each other and have collaborated. Ola shouldn't sell himself short at all though in terms of his own validity and importance. Ola began his content a long time ago and, whereas his content caters mostly to us metalheads, his reach has spread even further I believe. Heck, I just purchased a Solar guitar recently and much of it is because of how much I adore Ola's channel and vibe. Killer guitar, but it's got a lot to do with wanting to just be a part of Ola's community. Loved the video ESPECIALLY the part where Pix rolled in to get interviewed as well lol. That's another thing, Ola's channel has made me want to get rid of my adorable little dog and go get an English Bull Terrier!

[@achillesamusic]

Woohoo what a crossover of interviewing legends

[@mescaliiiiine]

I can really appreciate how much Ola is willing to elaborate on his point of view of a topic or his experience in order to bring out a better answer out of the interviewee. It also feels more like a dynamic discussion than an interview, and the title of the segment fits perfectly.

[@MrHeshersNeighborhood]

Dude, what a great pairing.

[@Tim_Nilsson]

The subsidised music lessons in Sweden probably helps. How much it's subsidised varies a bit between the different municipalities. In my own it has been completely free since 2019 and you are eligible from grade 0 - 9 (mandatory school) and 1 - 3 (gymnasium). Since it's part of the actual school system you are allowed to leave your ordinary classes for your "culture class". Then of course there are the mandatory music lessons at school as well...

[@Dustinchugs]

Rick Beato is a national treasure!

[@7620kur]

Glad to see Rick. Both legends

[@louisgarbi1009]

Ola is an excellent host - thoughtful questions, follow-ups, keeps the flow going without forcing it, comfortable, and no notes!

[@DogSlobberGardens-i7f]

They're both good interviewers because they actually let their guests talk openly. Not forcing the flow, as you said. So the two of them together doesn't even feel like an interview, it's just two pros talking shop. That's cool, and informative.

Fantastic! My two favorite channels! @OlaEnglund I was just wondering - to get a bit more variety in your editing, it would be great to have a camera closer on your guest's face, one close on you and a wide shot and switch between the 3 camera's. The angles are just a bit too similar, which is too bad because it makes the edit look a bit boring. But - great content as always!

[@janneranta7373]

It's related to not having much else to do. The members of Judas Priest and Black Sabbath have mentioned this. Same with Voivod. Boring, industrial environments. Then there's Seattle, with all the rain. Not much else to do. However, Florida and California are strange...

[@MoreMeRecording]

@@janneranta7373 I lived in the Caribbean as a kid, Pretty much on the equator. You get a sunset and then a moon rise that basically makes it so light you can see as far as you could during the day but it looks like you're viewing stuff through a filter. The people I knew down there were very musical and at least at that time, ate and breathed music.

[@janneranta7373]

@@MoreMeRecording Lived in LA and it was just sun, all day, every day. Still there are all these bands that have started there - but if you look at hair metal, it's definitely a product of wanting to be seen, which is very LA. Then you go out towards the desert and you start to have little places that gave birth to Kyuss and all those bands. That, again, relates to having nothing else to do. I think the big thing, when many musicians talk about why they started to play, is simply that there was nothing else to do.

[@lippi2171]

7:00 I studied language pedagogy and one thing I remember is that learners have to be familiar with the phonemes of the language until around the age of 12 (pre-puberty) to be able to produce the sounds just like a native. It has to do something with brain development (the cortex if I remember correctly). It becomes increasingly difficult to impossible to pick up the nuances of the tonality or phonemes of an unfamiliar language. This reaffirms what Rick said about his kids laughing at him for not noticing the mispronunciation haha. It would be very interesting to transfer this knowledge of tonal hearing and age to music education too.

[@skaldlouiscyphre2453]

I'm not sure if that's entirely true. As an adult I do a lot better with sounds like the Japanese R or that intermediate sound between W and V that shows up in a lot of languages. As a kid I always heard both of those as flips (L in place of R, R in place of L; W instead of V, V instead of W) one day in my late 20s it just clicked that they were additional, unique consonants. Because I'm very much -not- fluent in languages besides English it catches people off guard when I can repeat a phrase they give me that makes most English speakers stumble because it contains a sound English speakers don't normally make.

[@snabdub695]

I have the same experience as @skaldlouiscyphre2453. Only in early adulthood I noticed the subtle differences between pronunciation and had no problem learning the right pronunciation of all the Arabic letters. I don't think there's a cutoff age for these things, you just need to take the time to listen to these things very closely which a lot of adults won't do. @skaldlouiscyphre2453

[@lippi2171]

​@@snabdub695 Thanks for responding both of you! The problem we are talking about is called the Critical Period Hypothesis, which suggests that there is an age limit until which learners can acquire native-like language skills more easily. This theory is not universally accepted, but there's evidence indicating that certain aspects of it might be true (since there's a multitude of language skills). It is generally believed that you definitely CAN learn a foreign language at any point of your life, and I absolutely support it too! But both the Brain Plasticity Theory and the CPH suggest that *in terms of accent and pronunciation* it is more advisable to start learning before pre-puberty. My new favorite example to this is Edward Teller (my fellow Hungarian), who lived 3/4 of his very long life in America, but never managed to master the "correct" US accent, sometimes even to the point of being un-understandable, to me at least. There have to be of course examples of mastering native-like pronunciation and accent as adults. I'm not familiar enough with the field of tonal perception to claim anything about the connection between hearing and pronunciation. I, for one know that my listening skills and accent in English have drastically improved since I've been listening to native speakers all the time. I'm really happy to hear about your language learning successes!

Hello Stockholm 😄Though I love a lot of great musicians and their bands' music, I never cried when I heard any of them had died, except for Swedish Keyboardist and Composer Bo Hansson - that surprised me. I'm not sure why I did. I think a lot of the music I listen to is very different, very special. Bo Hansson, Kenny Hakansson (guitarist) and their band members played some very ancient sounding rhythms and would often create sonic harmony clusters with two or more instruments that sound like primordial nature. I think they really resonated with something real deep within my psyche. When I think of Swedish musicans and bands I also think of Niels-Henning Orsted Petersen (Jazz Bassist); Yngwie Malmsteen; Shocking Blues "Venus", and "All That She Wants" by Ace of Base.

It's great to hear Rick say put out a full album. As a metal fan, when I started buying music the bands I liked were rarely, if ever, in the charts so I got used to buying albums in order to have my favourite songs from my favourite artists. As a result, these days I still buy albums and if I was to put my own music out to the world I'd make albums.
