Minilogue: As Human as Possible

[@nick_pascoal]

I still come back to this video 10 years later for the atmosphere, the message, and the inspiration.

[@luchoazulreyes6082]

me sucede exactamente lo mismo, vuelvo despues de 10 años, y aa lo que han producido cada uno de ellos por separado, el set qque hizo Mullaert en el Lighthouse Festival es impresionante en too sentido, lo que produce a nivel orgánico, sensorial y musical, saludos desde argentina.

[@precarious333]

Thanks, Ableton. I've been a fan of Minilogue for over 10 years. Nice to see them gaining some intimate exposure through you. This series is your best to date.

[@NoNameJohnson-wc4pm]

People talk about the big houses and the nice cars but to me this is the dream!

[@tylergarrett]

Agreed. This video changed the way I've made music since 2014.

[@benbrophy6905]

I agree 1000%

[@stefanociardimusic]

Freedom is not to do whatever you want, but to be free, doing what you do.

[@makerbotplanet]

I love it. The setting, the thoughtfulness, the music, the feeling. The editing! Whoever the film crew is that shot this really captured them well. What a great short film.

[@DbKnY]

A studio like this in the nature = priceless

[@benbrophy6905]

Yessss

[@GregRband]

I’m revisiting this as it inspired me many years ago.... I am once again swept off my feet by this! You,guys are amazing, this mini documentary is perfect by Ableton, and it speaks to me personally. Thank you so much everyone involved! ❤️🎶👍

[@mrelevenerxi]

Nature , Meditation and making electronic music. what a combination . superb .

[@ikemgee]

+mrelevener xi Like, if they knew some listeners (me) enjoy listening theyr music in nature! :)

[@rhythmdroid]

I'd say the BIGGEST challenge of all this is to maintain the ability to jam and improvise, but hold the music to structural moments like build-up, breakdown, and various styles of transitioning. The finishing touch of creating a "story" with an arc, with drama, with hypnosis, and with occasional harsh changes is the key to taking the "jam" into widespread commercial appeal. Ableton makes that so much easier to do. The clarity with which they explain their methods REALLY helps me understand how to implement that discipline in my own improvised sets.

[@psiPeople]

Im amazed. wonderful interview , these guys and their music are at the highest level. They are so inspiring.

[@michael_harren]

This is changing everything for me.

[@danielrolle9785]

why ?

[@danxl5]

Daniel Rölle This... This is how you live and design the perfect workflow. It's beautiful. It's how it should be done. It's what we all strive for as digital musicians.

[@user-th6rh8zp3t]

right? some of the best, simplest advice i've heard

[@armandscheling1526]

you guys are awsome, Sonkite, Ooze , MInilogue thxs a lot for all!!

[@MichaelBLevi]

I didn't expect this feature to speak to me like it did. He touched on some things that are relevant to my creative process. This was great! thanks guys.

[@nsjx]

"...Nature is a wonderful place for kind of charging the batteries of accepting myself..." This is one of the most inspiring, fantastically shot on-location studio interviews I've ever watched. Thanks so much to Ableton and Minilogue for this refreshing experience, which is full of excellent advice. 12:47 is the way, the light.

[@RastiTkac]

Reminder to self: "Freedom is not to do whatever you want, but to be free doing what you do."

[@kmmdngn]

These are the coolest guys i've ever seen. Period. They don't make music to make that "Fat Banger" and sell millions of copies on beatport. They do it for themselves, for their own needs and lives. This was amazing!

[@atolon9005]

minilogue is the diamond of techno for me, huge EPs!!

[@GregRband]

I saw this video(s) 4 years ago when Ableton shared it, and even though I wasn't an Ableton Live user it Inspired me greatly... Musically, personally, and even spiritually on some level. I just revisited all 3 videos linked of this interview. about an hour of musical and info goodness. Thank you so much Ableton and Minilogue!

[@MiguelSilva-km5mt]

Thanks Ableton, this is a gift.

[@mugsydean]

What a beautiful well made video, compliments to the film maker. Love the musicians philosophy as well.

[@shunpillay]

This very video has meant so much to me, over so many years … more than my words can say … thank you …

[@dubprocesslbc]

these guys are doing it right..its a balance with music, nature, and well being..diggin it

[@xav13r8710]

Love this approach to music production/performance, it's so organic and real, this makes hearts and bodies want to dance not because everyone else is but because you want to. "freedom is not to do whatever you want but to be free doing what you do" :) I'm going for a bush walk, just the inspiration I needed. Thank you!

[@TwoBaze]

my best 20min in this week!

[@alexrayzor]

They are best, plus their studio is located in paradise !

[@HotelEdenMusic]

"I very rarely feel freedom when I try to get endless opportunities. But when I limit the opportunities, and I accept that, I can get free with, kind of, not caring." Excellent creative advice. I am on this path, love hearing it from another.

[@SunrunnerEPP]

Incredibly inspiring :) Thanks Ableton and Minilogue for sharing :) A great philosophy to music.

[@RheyneMusic]

Really enjoyed this. They give some great advice. Incredible location for their studio, too.

[@jjlacey1970]

i think its great that two lovers can relax then make music around this atmosphere

[@DataCollaborate]

Sound is Vibration! I thought i would never be hear again .. Thx Minilogue to be very present to the sound and impressions to Music!

[@cryogenic_sleep4795]

Freedom is not to do whatever you want? But to be free? Doing what you do. - Sebastian mullaert

[@amadeuspaulussen]

Was für ein schönes Studio, inmitten der Natur.

[@JackFresia]

so much respect for those guys

[@CJWarlock]

Very good message. A friend sent me this video to represent what he dreams of. I like the bare foot part and the nature. I walk bare foot in the garden. And about meditation - it's a state, not thing to do, hence one can be in meditation, not "meditate". :) A common misunderstanding. People are in meditation more often they realize. Especially when they make music or walk bare foot (or lay down) in garden or nature. :) Good reportage!

[@jayount]

What a great message, never heard these guys but now I want to check them out!

[@PeterStuckings]

Awesome video. Especially Sebastian's words right at the end, 11:40 onwards. Magic!

[@SteveSatori]

I am in awe. I have been listening to Minilogue for many years and always wondered about the secrets and philosophy behind their beautiful spiritual music - and these three videos are for me a wish come true. Thank you Sebastian Mullaert and Marcus Henriksson (and of course the Ableton crew). I can already say that this will help my own musical process.

[@pizzamangargatuloth4804]

11:10 is a great reason why thinking vs just feeling is what makes great music.

[@funkempfang]

Inspiring Lesson!!! Thanx To Minilogue & of course the Ableton Crew.......much Respect

[@chrisdubois641]

I love their message and creative techniques. They have something that is nostalgic to my heart. Not only that I like their music, which is elegant deep house, it makes me happy. I hope people in the world become inspired by Minilogue like I have.

[@setphaser]

“flow” is key, there’s a great book on creativity called zig zag that helped me understand my creativity and keep me inspired.

[@Bunk3rCast]

very talented guys behind this ,and very great musik !

[@els1f]

Man, somehow I missed these guys. I think I just found my new musical obsession. Thanks Ableton!

[@SoundtempleMusic]

One of the best Ableton videos I have seen. Great insight into production and performance techniques. Inspiring ...... A zen guide to making techno!

[@diegonayalazo]

Thanks

[@soundsdefygravity]

So inspiring. 13:08 was a message from the heavens today (use what you have instead of wanting something different). Be here now. Thanks for the reminder.

[@davidridley6785]

Those crazy Swede's and their setup! I love the juxtaposition with the countryside. Quality.

[@danaminyip]

these guys are very good role models !

[@JerettFranklin]

This is a cool little movie that redefines listening and speaking with not only music but with life

[@thiagoccmorais]

Great insights!! Thanks a lot guys! You are pure inspiration!

[@jdtorian]

As good as it gets. I have seen this so many times. Started me on a path. Happily still on it.

[@russellward5192]

Top marks. Perfect here and now. Bliss.

[@AudiolokoMuzik]

Amazing...Huge respect.

[@uitrev]

Beautiful video and amazing way to tell a great story...

[@frankwithout]

very inspiring! thank you for this.

[@MarkoHimanka]

Lovely environment. I can feel the peace and time to make some beautiful music.

[@dxtrs_mnpltr]

Wicked set up, looks like sooo much fun

[@kaip.9450]

Simple, minimal, hypnotic and flutters of psychedelica..driving you forward and up, but enough space in-between the layers to fly in your own direction. It was the album of my 20's.

[@rhythmdroid]

Could life be any more perfect?! This is so inspiring!

[@furioussanchez1904]

Thanks for the inspiration...

[@EngoneEndong]

Music, Essence and Expression of Inner Vibrations... Respect from Seireitei. ~ Namaste.

[@BlackAera]

Exactly my type of place to live and make music. I love Sweden

[@RoxScoots]

This short video is so much better than any movie in the cinema..! cause it's REAL :) thank you for this

[@DjembeDrumLessons]

Wonderful video. Love how they connect through nature, exercise and flow...into their music creations.

[@musicbronx]

really inspiring, thanks to share this!

[@LilAjBeatz]

Glad I watched this video. I was debating if I should and I never heard of them befoe but watching this gave me so much inspiration creativity and the message behind what they were saying really touched me! I'm definitely a fan now.

[@kbyer]

Some spiritual inspiration and concepts to put into my everyday thinking and creative process.

[@samthasham]

Amazing. Hugely inspiring. thanks

Hope to be as good as you guys one day, two beautiful souls expressing what they feel..

[@TimH123]

There is beauty and honesty here. They can be the same thing.

[@Localicu]

absolutely wonderful***

[@6884]

Thanks for this, it's just amazing.

[@treshi]

Respect on all this and Marcus last statements about making music, really like what you guys showed us here on Minilogue.

[@aeffchen5252]

And the last few words: only awesome !

[@chriscauac]

music is medicine... incredible, amazing music can be created with some clear, conscious intentions...

[@TheRenoiser]

The right path to walk :) or at least to try it , Thanks for sharing ur Knowledge

[@JohnLRice]

Beautiful environment, cool music and good advice, guys! :-)

[@giordanobruno7943]

can wait seeing this guys tonite... inspiring dudes cheers

[@farouthere6994]

Looking very fresh, alive, vibrant and good out there :) Nice to be close to Söderåsen (it's like the only elevated part of our contryside in Skåne/south south sweden) I have reached very similar conclusions as Markus and Sebastian have. Similar to what these guys say, it's a good thing to divide up your way of working and have sessions of pure jamming and music making... and sessions of production and enginnering so to say... As a producer and a performer i also differntiate when i make music between as i like to see it, production and plugin setup, signal chains,sample archive work, synth programming, etc... and the pure writing/jamming part where writing arrangements, parts, tweaking and jamming, and getting into the flow is the primary purpose, and in this space you don't budge out to go hunting for samples or testing out a new eq, you just flow with the music.. :) I am curious as to how far these guys have gone.. I have been moved to tears and high heavens of divine bliss in my creations when i really get into it... :) it's sorta like a tantric yoga mystical experience, a hypnonic suggestive state flow you get into if you allow it to happen that way... god's speed and good luck!

[@lushfauna]

coolest studio setting everr!

[@bobbell3989]

Wow, this has blown me away, What an awesome pair. Also imagine coming across that place wandering through the woods haha! ace :) More like this please 👍

[@howyourgardengrows]

Beautiful!

[@chrisFlow7]

απ τα μεγαλυτερα μαστορια στη σκηνη..respect

[@Flowerboy85]

Riktigt kul och se!

[@FelixKoschar]

Yay, thanks for featuring my heroes...!!

[@DjangoFlaherty]

I second this question, only I hadn't heard these guys before. I've followed at least a dozen artists who put out one amazing atmospheric track, and their whole subsequent catalogue would be mediocre deep house. Hopefully someone can recommend a few artists who are somewhat consistent :).

[@muzikelektronik]

Yes, I can help..: check 'Traumschallplatten' .Google it. You will get a site and go for 'Traum' - you will get Max Cooper, Microtrauma, Extrawelt and compilations of all artists having released on the label, mixed by Riley Reinhold,, 'Tour De Traum' , founder of the label. Her's a link: www.traumschallplatten.de/traum/traumv140/traumv140.html byee x

[@DjangoFlaherty]

Vicki V Thanks! I've heard Microtrauma before but never checked out the rest of the label. Lovely stuff on there :).

[@DepartmentMinimalLabelMusicDM]

Thank you guys ;-)

[@oskarhakansson]

Awesome! So inspiring!

[@JonathanAcostaValverde]

This video made envious as hell, I wish I had a studio like this, to make music like that... :)
