[@Jihavoh777]

Love the break down of Ren, I subscribed because of it!

[@AndaraBledin]

He's 23 You're 43 Ren is 33 Synchronicity Word from Samuel Perry-Falvey, the cinematographer, there were 4 takes and the video uses 2 of them; 1 for the fixed cams and 1 for the handheld because otherwise it'd be seen in the fixed cam shots. They use the same mic set up for all the live takes I've watched, and I don't think there's a boom of any type, because he gets the same sound from The Tale of Jenny & Screech (full) which is them walking through the streets and inside buildings with the camera swinging all around him, and the sound is very stable throughout. As for Ren's training, he's self-taught on guitar using tutorials and learning from other guitarists on KZbin. He's spent a lot of time where he couldn't really leave his bed, so practicing and watching videos was most of his life for years. For example, you can hear a lot of David Gilmour influence in his sound when he's doing the more bluesy pieces like towards the end of It's a Man's World. Oh, yeah, and Black Pegasis - He totally mentioned you by name when he was scrolling through reactions on his feed during the stream he did after the Illest of Our Time release. He got really choked up at all the reactions that came out right after. ❤ For the rap tracks, you totally need to sit Andiroo down in front of The Hunger and Losing It and Power. Gensis and What You Want are both great, too, but I think the first three are really the most technically impressive.

[@jonherron7418]

I really like this kid. His input brings a whole new level to your reactions. HAVE HIM ON MORE, PLEASE. I'm gonna check him out. 👍👍

[@afrohuman2]

I agree. He gave us so much information and he has a super authentic vibe

[@michaelkirby4312]

Wholeheartedly agree, this cat is super smart

[@illeagle8041]

Same 100%. Great disposition and knowledge. Would love to see a Big Push album track. Icaris maybe. With Andiroo!

[@stephaniegeer1691]

For REAL dude,have this guy on MORE OFTEN!! He's awesome! Great insight in this one! Will be looking out for more content with the 2 of you together.😃🔥🎶✌

[@Johnno010]

Yes! Bring Andy back! The Hunger, Genesis, or Power would be good rap selections!

[@shotaholic1]

the story of how Ren & Sam met and became friends was just as impressive as their musical talents. Ren was out busking but wasn’t feeling great. so, he wrapped up early and started walking home. he happened to notice some kid on a corner, singing his heart out. Ren recognized Sam’s talents and explained that he wasn’t getting any attention due to nobody being able to hear him. Ren offered Sam his mic and speaker, then started playing guitar and told Sam he can keep whatever they make. a song or two in and the crowds grew exponentially larger! the rest are now history.

[@maccart67]

Thank you, didn’t know this. 🌻

[@elsvaughn7959]

We know way too much about them 😅

[@elenhin]

This kid is my fave reactor at this point. He gets it all, the emotional, technical, artistic parts, all of it. Sweet af.

[@kennethmichael5404]

Love that you're sharing this with multiple people and introducing them to this masterpiece. Spread it far and wide.

[@mstash164]

I think he is soo hooked like the rest of us

[@michaelkirby4312]

I freaking love this kid. I want his reaction to ALL Ren stuff. Show him Jenny and Screetch. I would really like to hear his input on that master piece.

[@ItsKorbin.]

Don't get me wrong I enjoy all the guest you have on, but Andy just levels it up! Definitely need more of him, he brings a lot of insight!

[@drewmac206]

I was definitely looking forward to seeing Andiroo check Ren out. Appreciate the technical insights and can see the wheels spinning in his head. More please! Maybe some Big Push and one of his rap songs.

[@Fo-Flats]

Definitely bring this dude back. I like the perspective he brings to the reactions. This has become my new favorite channel.

[@grandmaimhungry8135]

To the best of my knowledge and research, Yes, it's live, one take. He did it 4 times and chose the one he liked the best. He does all of his music live. His trilogy Jenny's tale, Screech's tale and Violet's tale are done each one live and one take. They should be watched in that order to get the best experience. To go along with Hi Ren, his song Sick Boi is like a chapter in this part.

[@Fenthule]

@@Pygon2 no it was indeed done in a single take, they had multiple cameras set up and recording the whole way through so they're only cutting the camera from one to the next, it is indeed a single one take performance where he does the whole song through. The cinematographer left a comment under one of the first reactors (I've watched dozens by now couldn't tell you who lol) videos explaining it in great detail.

[@Lloocii]

​​@@Fenthule You sound like you're sure of this but you can clearly see that the camera isn't in frame for the close ups and then shoots shots from spots that would have it in frame. I'm not an expert and I don't have any inside info but logic would suggest it's 2 takes. Look at the camera on the line "stand on my own two feet" and how close up it is. Then look at the shot prior. Just from the angle of the 2nd shot we can tell that he's not super zoomed in for that shot or he'd have to be in the ground. He's in his face with a camera yet not there 1 second before.

[@vickyterry3150]

@@Fenthule I read Samuel's comment too (and I can't remember which reaction either!) but I thought he said the audio was one take--Ren sang it straight through--but the video itself was a couple of takes based on camera angles. I may not remember it correctly, though.

[@supertuscans9512]

I saw a comment by Sam on Hi Ren. The video was taken from the fourth take and it is all one take , filmed on three cameras, until the point where Ren rises to his feet and they changed to a close up.

[@abercrombieuser12345]

@@Lloocii removing a cameraman from the shot is an easy feat during editing. still a live performance technically.

[@theredbarron100]

Andy is brilliant! More of him please!

[@Traveler13]

Glad you mention Bohemian Rhapsody, i an old enough to remember when it was released, I was a teenager and its a unique musical moment in my life, when I heard this for the first time I had that feeling, I had witnessed something unique and wonderful

[@ML_SE]

Bring him back!!! He's talented himself. Great reaction. 🤓🇸🇪

[@livinginwestgeorgia5679]

Yes please have him back for the whole Ren rabbit hole. Let’s go!!

[@Silkytoaster]

Love this kid . Love your vibe together. It’s really great to get his analysis- I have watched dozens of reviews of Hi Ren and he has brought up stuff no one else noticed . Only 23 yrs old omg

[@josh25w]

Bring back this young man. Completely different take on things. Loved it.

[@matthewhawkins1472]

My favorite reaction to date….. love this kid

Yes bring him back! We know talent and intelligence. We are Ren and Black Pegasus fans. ;) Thank you for introducing us to Andiroo!

[@emileedawn237]

You two have great chemistry. Love the way Andy helps us understand and appreciate Ren's guitar playing. Please bring him back for more NF & Ren reactions. Money Game and Money Game 2, so he can understand the seashell reference., Illest of our Time, and Chalk Outlines.

[@LisaMagdalenaBardell]

Love your guest! Please have him back 🙌🏼

[@MoritzWutz]

Awww this was amazing! Thank you Andy for the detailed breakdown (and reaction). That was awesome and so insightful. Here are two probably already heavily requested REN songs. But nonetheless: Ren and Sam Tompkins - Blind Eyed kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKuappppd8SGqtU Ren - Power kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJDLn5uMedmtirs All the best to the two of you

[@dmj4966]

Your guest has knowledge. Love to see him any time

[@coszii.7582]

he’s so far my favourite you’ve had react. at least reacting to ren. his depth of understanding of music is really cool to hear. i’d love to hear what he has to say about the full tale of jenny and screech and then maybe i shot the sheriff/road to zion/hip-hop or war pigs covers.

[@Steven90108Runs]

I liked this reaction! This guy brought a different side to reactions, which is interesting 😊 please bring him on for more Ren again !

[@jasonsink8954]

Great breakdown! Andiroo was impressive with his knowledge of music as well as just seems to be a cool guy.

[@loneyb11]

[@static65days...]

Great guest!....what a difference having somebody no ego that actual gets the technicality and structure of the music. great reaction🏴‍☠

[@annaspurlock439]

Also, he NEEDS to see the trilogy! Jenny’s Tale, Screech’s Tale and Violent’s Tale.

[@julieblackwell2064]

Thank you so much Black Pegasus! For sharing Ren as much as you can! I can see you “guiding” but hoping to not also “influence” opinions at the same time… respect ✊ man

[@Icclebloo]

Yeah, you need to get this guy back. Having someone with a deep grounding in musical theory as well as being able to get the historical references with the classical / blues / jazz is awesome and definitely deepens the appreciation. And yes, Ren went to music college so will have had at least some classical training

[@scottlaurenson3390]

Bring back Andiroo very insightful 🎶good to get his perspective Ren crosses the generation's I'm mid fifty's and enthralled with Rens music. Love the sharing Ren with musician's Here for more ✌️❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@deborahlester4018]

This is so encouraging to me. I am always trying to get young people to learn more about all kinds of music. The more you know the more you hear. Step out of your box. You start with the same small box of crayons everybody has. This young man is exemplary in his reaction because he has the big box of colors with the sharpener.

[@MrBluegrouse]

DEFINITELY bring this kid back. Super smart and perceptive. Great reaction/conversation. Loved it.

[@britishbulldog3410]

Great reaction he needs to see chalk outlines, and sick boi ,excellent as always more ren more ren more ren.

[@deadheadfor2oh948]

Andy brought an insight to this song that I haven't seen from any other reactions. Bring him back more lol

[@bosbornefischer]

This was a live, one take, with only the clipped mic. Because talented. This react was great, as is having multiple reacts by people with different perspectives.

[@Deathbolt96]

We want MORE please 😁

[@meaghanhoffmann5869]

This dude it my favorite reactor so far. I love watching musicians reacting to other musicians because they catch everything❤

[@juliecooper-nm7cm]

Since I discovered Ren and all these amazing reactors, I’ve learned so much about music and the techniques that make it stand out. Thanks for bringing on guests to react with you. I love it!

[@mikebridgland7757]

This reaction with the layers being peeled back, outstanding.

[@evil4d]

This was great, Andy had some great insight, love that he picked out the diminished chords and the call and response freestyling. Got to play Jenny and Screech in full for him.

[@chrisparti]

Spot on with the diminished run comment in Hi Ren... I mean all of the comments were spot on, but that one shows in depth musical understanding... 👍👍👍

[@kirstyoneill6609]

Bring Andy back xx I really appreciate his input on Ren and how he broke the production down xx

[@andrewsears16]

Sick boi, genesis and I know he would appreciate "the big push - I shot the sheriff, road to Zion, hip hop" he did. Genesis and sick boi are produced by Ren entirely from what I understand so as a sound engineer and musician he'd probably enjoy those two a lot. And his live cover video with his band is just amazing

[@anticafo]

This was dope! Yes, please bring him back - the intelligence and the layers of Ren's music needs expertise - you and Andy got it! What to listen to? It's like approaching NF - there is so much, only with Ren - it's not just one path, one genre or one journey - it's a Reniverse with a web of wormholes and different realities, lol! Rap - each song is different, you experienced it, BP, with Genesis, Hunger and Illest being all different - the consistency is the bars and flows are crazy good! Ones you haven't seen yet, but are just as good like others mentioned - Loosing it (insane flow switches - it's roller-coaster ride) What you Want is a homage to Beastie Boys, Power is both deep and uplifting vibe (you get to see Sam (who does all Ren's videos) driving the car as Ren jams. And also the Big Push for Andy - both covers and originals are FIRE! Sweet Little Lady live acoustic, Watch Out live (originals) War Pigs, Wade in the Water - ones I don't think you've seen - they're great! Oh, Bongo Bong and Englishman in NY covers are superb - live, but not busking. Did you react to Money Game 2? Please consider making a Ren playlist at this point, lol!

[@marisaint5676]

Bring him back! The Hunger, Sick Boi and the new one Illest of Our Time 🥳

[@belinda35]

If you haven't seen Ren's Twitch that he did live on his birthday, you should. He mentioned you by name and watched some of your reaction.

[@Wigid303]

Loved this reaction... He knows his stuff.... Definitely do more... Love it BP 😊

[@TheJohmac]

The Jenny and screech trilogy would be a great video for this kid to react to, especially as an engineer and musician.

[@BabbsyJ]

You are so funny... found another Ren newbie 😂 Love it!

[@AmaBrigitte]

Another great guest being introduced to Ren by you! What a nice guest reactor and I will check him out! Thank you Pegasus for your continued passion for Ren's creations ❤

[@sally8704]

I came across this video & was so hyped to see what he thought. I loved learning about the technical side. I just knew Ren was something special & you just validated that! Dive on in Andiroo & enjoy! I say the Trilogy and I would be interested in what he has to say about The Hunger & than Sick Boi ….and then ….and then (I could just go on & on!

[@geofthompson3844]

This young man is seriously smart. You can tell he's very good in his own right and I think he could probably link up with Ren and they'd be amazing together, like genius squared.

[@Tessimistic420]

Dude! Normally I don't trust people who are the same age as google but I know an old soul when I see one. 🔥🔥❤️🔥🔥 #Ren

[@kimetherington2252]

Thank you for introducing Ren to the unknowns, so they can in turn introduce Ren to their followers! Let the cycle keep repeating itself! Rens well deserving of that, the gift of his music has resonated with so many people in their walks of life, it's gave them hope where there was no hope from the struggles that we all have in this crazy world we live in! Keep diving into Rens rabbit hole, his catalog is deep...

[@SleeplessMomma]

Yes, definitely bring Andy back ! This is awesome 🔥❤️

[@bbqueen1578]

This is one of my favorite reactions! I really enjoy hearing Andrew's enjoyment combined with his advanced music knowledge. Love love it.

[@Charyl.w.an.A]

YES MORE ANDY!! AND OF COURSE ALWAYS MORE REN!!

[@hmddesigns1433]

This was such a cool reaction, going to definitely be checking out Andiroo now. It was great hearing his perspective. Bring him back to listen to any or all of the following: Illest Of Our Time, Genesis, Power, The Hunger. Also need to see his take on the live performance of I shot the sherriff of The Big Push.

[@joeymalley9266]

Honestly ive seen most of the reactions of this song u have shown your buddies but Andrews analysis was awesome to see!! Not only being a young producer and being talented but knowing how it is to grow up in this generation gave him a really unique outlook on it

[@ginamakescrochet]

Loved it bring him back ❤

[@FOTO_GNETIKS]

Hearing an individuals insight when backed by obvious intelligence leads to a special understanding and growth of the viewer. If you guys don't do another reaction to REN, it would be a damn shame. Sooner than later, please! Cheers BP from Canada.

[@Parula06]

Audio was done in one take, they used Take Four of four, which was also the source of most of the visuals. Use fixed cameras plus a handheld. As far as I know the lavalier mic was the sound source. Guitar and vocals were fed into his phone in his back pocket. Think they might have used Zoom, but I'm no expert.

[@KamilDziadkiewicz]

Andiroo - man we need you in these reactions - you are fluent in so many aspects of making but also consuming music - it's very fresh even for somone who've seen like 500 reactions to Ren already! :)

[@greger1love]

Bring him back I love the technical break downs of the production he shows passion for music

[@greger1love]

Just listened to some of his music I hear a small hint of 21 Pilots on his music I love it

[@baggielee67]

Watched plenty of BP Ren reaction videos but subscribed after watching this one, cannot wait to hear more from Andiroo. What amazing insights, I have watched so many people react to Hi Ren yet he added so much.....a seriously impressive young man.

[@Veeliscious]

Impressive and intelligent reaction, especially from someone so young. Would be more than happy to see more reactions from him. As he really appreciates the classical aspect I think he'll really appreciate Ren's Bardcore "Jenny & Screech Trilogy (Full) and for the rapping yeah probably The Hunger where Ren flexes his rapping muscles.

[@biancadstein]

I love the youngling as a guest! He saw Mozart! I did so, too! And I live in Augsburg, Germany, a city which calls itself Mozart-Stadt (Stadt = City)... I do not want to anger him calling him youngling, it is only that I am far more than double his age... Thank you both, and Pegasus especially for bringing in different guests. Why is it so much fun watching reaction vids? P.S. please listen to "How to be me", it is Ren with Chinchilla. I do so much love the song!

[@Royalbobcatgto]

Yeah, that was a great reaction/breakdown, will be down for watching another.

[@danielpowell7973]

Love Andy's reactions! Put him in front of Genesis and Illest of our time.

[@shirleycarter2231]

Loved this reaction !! More please , if you do Genesis, please do the live acoustic this time.... Ren always excels live ....thanks guys ❤❤

[@rinserepeat6388]

Love this dude’s perception and insight…I’d put him in front of the tales trilogy, the hunger, and either bongo bong or the I shot the sheriff/road to zion/hip hop stuff from The Big Push!

[@Shiroar]

Bring him back!!! He needs to see Ren rap too. Illest Of Our Time or The Hunger. And then maybe show him yet another side with Crutch feat. Bibi. Absolutely stunning song.

[@TheChristafershawn]

B.P. you got to check out Heretic, Diazepam, Ready For You, How To Be Me, Crutch......so many more as well but those have yet another flavor to Ren. Check it yo and congrats on getting some props and exposure from Ren himself. That was very cool to see.

[@niel_nds6889]

[@LeeannG]

I love the new Ren intros so much, thanks for continuing to do them!! It’s rare for me to see people in comments who are new to his music :)

[@kerimccabe2931]

Bring Andiroo Back!! BLIND EYED by ren and Sam Tompkins is awesome

[@BlackPegasusRaps]

Thank you for the love and support

[@Alan-lt6us]

For me, the most remarkable aspect of the lyrics and performance is in two halves. The first half is Ren trying to fight his corner, his music and wanting to be well, not needing his voice, and the voice crushing him each time, the last half, a more calm and quiet but resolute Ren, seeing that combatting the voice has got him nowhere, and his real victory is believing in his own art and skill, not needing the voice to agree, and pushing the voice to the point where it loses it and then falls silent. I don't speak from personal experience, but I do work as a psychiatric nurse with people living with psychosis, and this hit me hard but in a good way, especially that monologue at the end.

[@heyitska]

This was amazing! Please bring him back!

[@ceciliasilvera9799]

Okay, this makes sense to me now. First time I heard Beethoven and Chopin when I was about 10yrs old I got completely obsessed. And that actually hasn’t happened to me until I heard Ren since then. If he’s classically schooled or influenced it makes sense I would make that connection.

[@syyneater]

Again, I love that you’re bringing in different people and perspectives. I also saw Ren shouting you out in his live stream. Absolutely bring him back in! His knowledge and level of musicality is beyond his years.

[@philsilverthorn]

Although my ears were kind of aware of that call and response section, you focusing in on that part of the performance just made me appreciate it more. I'm not musical myself but understanding what musicians do to make things sound good to the ears just amplifies the pleasure when listening for me.

[@mikesnyder6358]

Glad to see you doing these kinds of reactions. Ren is such a treasure and the variety of friends and colleagues you have brought on your channel to react to him has been enlightening. Andiroo brings a great angle to the vibe. I can imagine he would truly dig deep into the Ren World and love every bit of it. Talent appreciates talent. Come back and watch Ren shred some bars.

[@gatormama75]
