That's what separates the good from great imo. Being able to recreate what you made. Knowing exactly what instruments you used and what chords you played. A lot of producers nowadays just find a random VST patch and use basic music theory and could never go back and recreate it from scratch. Nothing against that. If it sounds good it sounds good.

To summarize for people not willing to check the video: Hans basically raves about the Black Panther soundtrack and gives Ludwig the kind of props you can basically only dream of a legend saying to you. It would be the equivalent of having Ian McKellen or Patrick Stewart telling you that your acting moved them to tears. Ludwig went to LA as a 22 year old Swede with no connections and hustled his way to the top through sheer talent. The dude is in his early thirties and just look at his portfolio already: Creed, Black Panther, Tenet, Mandalorian, the Childish Gambino collabs (including This is America) - I mean the guy even scored the new fanfare for the Warner Bros logo for Christ sake....

[@topilepojarvicomposer6157]

@@gavindalton2238 You make an excellent point and perhaps Ludwig was being modest. But I must add that as a Scandinavian who has studied pop/jazz piano and composition plus has a background in metal (similar to Göransson, who says he was a Metallica fan) I have never heard a single Funkadelic song. So it's possible that he'd never heard them, especially since he seems to come from a family more focused on jazz and orchestral music.

[@Dupree90]

He made nothing, it was a sample that was not cleared and now George Clinton is coming for the money kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKLLYoKvrMeGmMU

[@anthonyrios2300]

It is not a sample. Basically it sounds very similar to a Bootsy Collins song which I believe is Id Rather Be With You. Ludwig and Donald still very much crafted, played, and made the song themselves. Strong similarities is all.

[@Dupree90]

Jiraiya The Gallant clearly you didn’t watch the video clip I posted above. I’d also like to repeat that IN the video clip.... George Clinton...the PRODUCER of “I’d Rather Be With You” said on HOT 97 to Ebro Darden that he contacted Donald Glover’s people and they said they would not take a DOLLAR FROM “REDBONE” (which is 3x’s platinum) until they pay George Clinton (producer) and Bootsy (writer) because it’s George Clinton and Bootsy’s song!

[@anthonyrios2300]

I did see the clip however what I'm saying is that Redbone does not contain a sample. Redbone was written, made, and played by Ludwig and Donald. Somehow during the writing process, one of them drew a little too much inspiration from Bootsy which led to the crediting of Bootsy and George due to sounding alike.

[@Dupree90]

Jiraiya The Gallant no sir, respectfully you don’t follow....George Clinton and Bootsy wouldn’t have the opportunity to collect money from that record if IT WASN’T THE SAME RECORD!!! You mean to tell me if some said you took their record...but didn’t really...you would allow the other person to get paid for your song before you????

[@ahiwalter9153]

Mr Shikadance an apple ain’t an orange but their both still fruits. I’m willing to bet your fav band (like APC’s latest effort) used digital samples for songs because it’s convenient, again you really just don’t know what you’re talking about because there is literally 15 years of recording techniques & most importantly cheaper & better technology that you are not acknowledging

[@ahiwalter9153]

Mr Shikadance once again the role of a music producer has changed in the last 20 years so you’ve got some catching up to do. Also once again he probably would not of made said music without Donald first being influenced 70s p-funk/funkadelic/psychedelic music which he stated he did not listen to much before they started working on this project, he also stated before they met he did not work on hip hop music much & speaking from experience, a song with memorable, catchy lyrics & a good instrumental will give you a much better chance of selling a record than just an instrumental alone. So this was a mutually beneficial arrangement as Donald was already establishing himself as an alt-rap artist & Ludwig was known in circles but they both elevated each other to new opportunities lol. You again are ignoring the fact that damn near no one records like the highly respected Butch Vig & many others did back then, it is a game of EFFICIENCY & the listeners will simply not be able to the difference between a sampled drum & a real one.

Eric Nguyen Did I say simplicity is bad? I actually like a lot of the songs genius usually deconstructs. I just said that anybody can make a beat, but not everybody can do what he is doing. And even if there are simple songs with guitar in it (which are only shitty pop songs) at least it takes some skill to play the guitar. Btw don't listen to those pop songs that try to shove a guitar in it none of them are good, if you want to listen to real guitar playing I suggest you listen to Hendrix.
