[@milododds1]

Hi David, You should totally learn to speak German, it's a wonderful language and honestly it's easier to think in German as it is to think in English. German has far fewer exceptions to keep track of and though there are some long words, those words are often smaller words put together. Germans are by nature incredibly organized and efficient, they are also incredibly honest even to your face which is actually refreshing.The first time I went to Germany I had only taken one semester (16 years old) but it was still worthwhile for me to go because it gave me many more reasons to learn the language and the culture. I returned almost 5 years (21 years old) later with the ability to hold a basic conversation, however after working as a waiter for 3 months my German drastically increased (4x). It's now some 28 years later and I still speak German fairly well. I try to listen to German television several times a week plus speak to anyone I happen to run into who is either German or speaks German. My experience is that yes most younger Germans who study English and went onto college speak English fairly well, however older people and those who went onto trade school instead don't speak English quite as well. By in large Germans unlike Americans speak many more languages but Europe is a much smaller place with far more languages being spoken. Similar to how many more Americans can speak Spanish in our border states or have Latin ancestry, in fact when I was living in Mexico City briefly I actually got by speaking German several times because my girl friend's nephews were studying in a German school or family friends were German...go figure.

[@donnbialik9085]

@@milododds1 I agree. I've been to much of Europe and spent lots of time with real people from the places I was touring in and while much of Europe is very friendly, I'd say Germans are the friendliest.

I found it fascinating, although I had no clue what she was talking about. Was happy to recognize one word: Ableton. Her next words "I don't use it". Whaaa, so there goes nothing :-)

[@J3unG]

It's interesting how young people, this generation of musicians, have found usefulness and aesthetic beauty in concrete music and electronic textures. It seems as if this type of thinking has gone (almost) mainstream. I think it's cool. Years ago, pre-Internet, the only folks who dug this stuff (myself included) were geeky music types who were willing to go beyond the basic musical elements of rhythm, melody and harmony and explored texture and randomness. This young artist is fully exploring that realm and interestingly enough, others who are watching this clip dig it too. There is hope in the world after all...

[@weplaywax]

Yes! The democratisation of technology has enabled so many of us to delve into abstract and critical thinking. The singularity is not strictly about becoming one with the machine, but it's more of understanding and thinking like one. It's not what the AI can do for us, but what we can do for the AI.

[@jacob8949]

So refreshing to hear a perspective that's not just straight up complaining about other generations or calling them weird. Thank you!

[@zaxzaxx4561]

It's all down to the rise of dance music, which was (and still is) unlike any other form of popular music: rather than being based around the song form, it emphasised extended time spans and laminar structures, demanding a very different way of listening, And dance music was descended from disco, which in turn developed from the idea of listening and dancing to recorded music as a secret social occasion when the Nazis invaded France (black music and dancing to it was banned as 'degenerate'). Thus Adolf Hitler was the inadvertent godfather of modern beat-based electronic music, which is very, very weird.

[@Jac7k]

It’s so cool. As more powerful hardware becomes available at lower price points, an entire world of programmed and semi-programmed music opens up to the creative minds of the world. The Moog synthesizers of the 70s were so out of reach for most, yet today for a modest investment you can have exponentially more power on your desk.

lol i cant help myself but compare this with charlotte de witte and her video when beatport visited her 3 years ago (beatport studio sessions). after that no one was sure anymore whether she actually produces her music herself lol. and here we see true knowledge and passion, this is a difference like day and night. this lady seems like she could go on forever and ever about her stuff, real artist. great video, thanks

[@AngrySuzy_AngrySuzy]

When Jako said "if it paid more, I would prefer to produce music exclusively" I felt that. I would love to create all day, every day, but it doesnt pay and I'm stuck working for Corporate overlords, which eats 70% of time and my energy. *sad artist noises*

Night Nurse would have been a great moniker too :D i love watching people get giddy talking about music making - the passion just shines through. I'd have to say that out of all the people ive heard with modular setups, nobody has made more enjoyable tracks than JakoJako - tight, yet evolving/varied and still melodic. Really, really impressive stuff - listened to her Patchnotes set 3x today

@G E T R E K T 905 Not sure what you're trying to achieve here, or what you even mean with your comments, but for one thing, you certainly appear to have some problem with women / girls generally, or for their work to be considered equal to that of men. For another thing, I couldn't care less if the artist in this video was male or female; my original comment was about how rapidly that artist creates their art. Simp-le as that.

Pro tip: Just start something somehow. Even if it's just opening a crappy DAW and doing a simple pattern for 5 minutes a day. That shit gets you flowing man!

[@pablo.station]

Everyone has their own means, of producing something. Just because you have top dollar gear, doesn't make you any less creative then this young lady. Its never about the gear, or the complexity of your work space, its about the desire and imagination to make something uniquely yours.

[@TheSyntheticMenace]

This feeling is what other companies prey on, "Get our new FlowX VST and it will unlock your potential! *Full video of a guy you've never heard off talking about the software*" You just need to practice daily. Don't get down on yourself, open up the DAW and get crackin!

Hallo JakoJako ! Du machst total die Dinge, die ich machen will. Danke, daß du mir einen Weg gegeben hast. Ich plane auch einen Eurorack zu bauen. Ja, wir sollten die Regeln brechen. Übrigens, danke, daß du eine Krankenschwester bist, die dich um Menschen kümmert. Du machst nicht nur großartige Musik, sondern bist auch eine sehr fürsorgliche Person. Das Geheimnis ist Octatrack. Du hast auch herausgefunden, wie du deinen Workflow vereinfachen können. Vielen Dank !

[@milododds1]

I also do something similar with the songs I create in that every song must contain something new I've never done or tried before. It forces me every time to go outside of my comfort zone and experiment. I like how you get inspired by the manuals, you should try creating your own modules, look at Emilie Gillet but yeah I get that you love the process...someday you might make your own hardware. I too prefer to pre-build my drum beats but unlike you I'm not doing live performances which I have huge respect that you can do that. Instead I tell musical stories by picking a person who the song is dedicated to, a genre, and a topic or object. Laying down drum beats first, bass, chords and some sort of lead. Anyways I am going to rewatch your video a few more times, it's very helpful. You say that you get emotional and then inspired, I believe you're just allowing yourself to play with uncertainty about what's going to happen in the moment. You're creating the space for something exciting to happen, something random...that's what Jazz is all about and improvisation. JakoJako you're becoming a true musician....so happy for you. Btw if you still want to hear the loud amplifiers there is a cool Kickstart project I'm currently backing called "Stomplifier" though it's sort of ending in a few days and likely won't get funded but I'm hoping that eventually it will someday because it gives you the sound of various tube amps in a very small profile. I'm trying to convince the guy behind it to build it also as a Eurorack module. I believe this guy is Canadian. There's also another cool project called Anyma Phi (A hybrid monophonic synth) coming out of Lille, France that's very cool along with past projects like the Artiphon Orba. If you all get a chance you got to watch Emille Gillet's workshop Parts 1 & 2 about how she goes about building modules, though sadly she's not building anymore for the time being.
