Hello, it's Adey Bell, aka "the Voice of Wind" I am so excited to know you used my library for your soundtracks, Charlie! If you ever need lyrical embellishment or expansive and custom sounds that the library doesn't provide, hit me up. I have a stellar studio setup that's record ready. Cheers, and thanks for the kudos!

[@miyahigashiyama]

my respect for this man knows no end. I have two degrees in music and have studied a lot of composers/types of writing and this dude NAILS it. The Saw X soundtrack that was just released is absolute perfection. He's innovative, smart, utterly creative, and adds SO much to these films. Music is so integral to the success of a film. Bravo!!!!

[@Bentheguitarist1]

but does he nine inch nail it?! I'll shut the door on my way out..

[@mirkom8275]

Charlie Clouser is the best composer. I love Hello Zepp. My favorite is SAW IV Let GO ❤🎵🎸

[@HKprod90]

we need a start-to-finish with this guy, no matter what the training costs

[@CultOfDraven]

Charlie is THE inspiration for horror film scoring!

[@aduckwithavoice]

Charlie is just hands down the best person for the Saw soundtrack, his understanding of music and sounds just blow my mind.

[@Webhead731]

One of the most talented composers. This music has helped shape my love of music!

[@TemmeSikkema]

Thanks Soundiron and Charlie. I too am a HUGE fan of mister Clouser. The man is a musical genius, a true pioneer in sound design but above all one of the nicest and most helpful fellow musicians I have ever had the privilige to interact with (online). It is so nice to watch and hear the man talk about his craft. I am way too scared to ever watch a SAW movie but I have listend to all the scores (and NIN too). T H A N K S for this awesome video guys ❤

[@LeeGee]

What a treat, thank you!

[@SoundironAudio]

You're very welcome!

[@Dannyjones1]

A true artist with incredible detail to match the scene.

[@FrankDormani]

Holy sh**! Those guitars at 19:09 hit so hard.

[@MatthewDerosier-bg2pd]

cool video wassup gearspace peeps

[@FrankDormani]

I love videos like this. This score rocks, and it's awesome seeing what samples do make it into the movie!

[@jeremiahpeterson7490]

Thanks for sharing, a huge Charlie fan here!

[@TruthSurge]

14:50 heh, yet it's the past! Legato transitions in sample libs are not exactly new. I guess if you haven't ever used any it would seem amazing. The phrases in these libs are more realistic because it's one recording (some legato patches have oddities in timbre from one note to another because they are separate recordings). Pretty loyal franchise to have him do ALL 10 movies. Respect.

[@5ammy13]

Lol in fact we've come to the stage at which the legato transitions literally break or make a library where a lot of libraries are abandoned for their lacklustre legatos 😂

[@notubercharged]

i was listening to the score literally straight after i saw the movie last night because i wanted to fully listen to it on its own since i'm studying classical composition and thought it'd be a great idea to passively analyse on the way home. it turned out to be the best idea there are specific rhythms that set my brain into hyperactive *i fucking love this and would kill for this* mode when it comes to the relationship of pitch/instrument qualities and patterned rhythm in film and classical music (which is why minimalism is my favourite classical style). the percussion part that Clouser went into talking about in this video with the metal striking and the panning was one of those moments. i heard it and it literally- instinctually flipped a switch from "damn this is good, the score is so etherial and magical while still keeping the essence of the other movies' traps scores" to *"omfg wtf best choice ever actually genuinely genius going to text my friends right now about this and listen nonstop until tomorrow morning while i am asleep too"* i have a definite feeling that there's going to be many tracks from this score going to go into the stim music part of my brain. sat right up there with the Angler and Trader themes from Inscryption; genuinely congratulations, Clouser, you found the tism switch

[@vishalsavur]

Uses environment window 🏆🏆🏆

[@themodernholmes1735]

"HELLO CHARLIE, I WANT TO PLAY A GAME. AHEAD OF YOU IS A RECORDING ROOM FOR YOU TO MAKE A BADASS AND ICONIC THEME FOR A HORROR MOVIE CALLED SAW. FAILING TO DO SO MEANS THAT THIS FILM WON'T BE AS COOL AS IT SHOULD BE. SINK OR SWIM CHARLIE, MAKE YOUR CHOICE."

[@sadbishdish]

Wow. That was way too spoil-yy

[@derbar7051]

Ummm he literally tried to not spoil stuff from the films
