The value of these videos is unmeasurable. Thank you Tom

[@Kevinschart]

i became a fan of junkie xl after watching mad maxx...one of the all time great action movies. Brothers in arms is just magnificent....I can't believe he is sharing so much of himself for free..Salute YOU!!!

[@DarfinxCore]

I'm still in utter disbelief that these are free on KZbin. Thank you so much for taking the time to do these.

[@DRUMISTAAKO]

Hi Tom! thank you for your generosity!

[@monkeybusinessmediallc9373]

I commend you for refining your melodic language and the exploration of melodic modulation. I hope this, with your technical and sound design prowess, will carry you far in the industry.

[@Rhythmattica]

Im a Junkie Junkie ! Total respect to you sir for sharing your creative process.

[@hulkslayer626]

Thank you thank you thank you!!! Love buying your(the movie) soundtracks on vinyl and play it in the background while watching these videos!

[@riel777]

Just watched the movie and the soundtrack is awesome!

[@gabrield.cstoica1832]

Tom very cool master class and very very good...Bravo Tom

[@antonisfakiris505]

Great work Tom, loved the movie,loved the sound design you create and the Film Score, of course!!

[@stark1e25]

17:15 to the end of the score gives me chills... Junkie XL you're amazing!

[@InLightTone]

Tom, thanks once again for giving all of us a glimpse into the fascinating world of film composition. I could never fathom the complexity of scoring an entire feature film, but thanks for taking the time to share it with us mere peons. Much, much respect!!!

[@joshnite9265]

New cooking time coming soon?! Thank you for being so wonderful.

[@roninmurphy]

Thank you for all the videos, and especially the movie scoring ones. It enables me and others I imagine, to attempt to score. Respect!

[@daleturner]

Thanks so much for the Waves InPhase showcasing! I've always used that as a "correctional" things when I stereo mic, but never to widen a source--awesome!! Whole tutorial SLAMS! And loved listening to the three cues in the TOMB UNLOCKING fun!! Thanks x 1,000,000!!!!

[@jewen07]

Tom, I dream with the day of Justice League Studio Time. I strongly believe in it. #ReleaseTheSnyderCut

[@sidonioferreira1483]

Preach brother, preach! #ReleaseTheJunkieLeague

[@freedmt]

I enjoyed that music even without a movie so much

[@maudonnet]

Awesome episode, Tom! Thanks for sharing!

[@artcheone]

thank u Junkie! Moscow loves u!

[@stevenserraiocco6284]

The master is back!!! So thankful for your sharing of knowledge Tom - absolutely the best!

[@PatFlanigan]

Love that you made us work to get to this one! So so happy that Studio Time is back!

[@JacobGurevitsch]

So generous and great! Thanks a bunch....

[@joshtackett]

Hey Junkie! Could you make an episode where you talk about your strategies for re-conforming a scene? Basically when you've already scored a scene and then the edit changes so you have to move everything around. It would be really cool to hear your take on best practices during that process. Thanks again for all the great tutorials! I always learn a ton

[@DogWearingABeanie]

you sir, are the man! cant wait to see (and hear) the movie

[@ChristianIce]

That was fun :)

[@MircoSaccardo]

Le cose che si fanno aspettando la live di Breaking Italy :D

[@rasali101]

Amazing work you always manage to capture the essence of the movie love it...I now watch movies with the score in mind .

[@miguelmedel5298]

Junkie thank you so much for this tutorial! Really inspires me to becomming a composer for soundtracks. And btw you won't believe how much the fans back at DC miss you. They all used your tracks in a fan cut of Justice League because Elfman disrespected your work and Hans' for not continuing to use your themes that you gave the heroes. We miss you man! Thank you again for this video. Your work is brilliant.

[@dutchufo4real72]

Thanks Tom for sharing your studio time again with us with these inside information how you compose and buildup everything. There is much to learn for me in seeing how you compose and building up these parts in sections, I sure gonna work on this for myself in organizing the tracks. Also these remarks I like a lot to keep it structured. Thanks en groet uit Nederland. Ray :)

[@KyleGushue]

great episode! had to immediately listen to the song again. very cool.

[@brenttauromusic]

You have some of the best educational content on KZbin! Please don’t ever stop. I’m a keyboard player that plays in bands. I dive into a bit of production too. But this has helped me understand so so much about filmscoring. It’s opened up my mind to new possibilities. God bless you!

[@voice-of-oblivion]

Thank you very much. Really great

[@mghough]

MakeNoise is based in Ashville, NC. Same as Moog. They make AMAZING stuffs! :) Love the Studio Time! Thanks Tom.

[@nicolastorres86]

Awesome!!!!!

[@edmasters4454]

Thanks Tom -- really interesting to see how you use the tempo/signature/marker tracks.

[@ryanbarryaudio]

Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos Tom. Great to hear and see you taking an idea from just an idea to a cue.

[@geecen]

Interesting to see how much is done with surround and effects vs sound design in the instruments.

[@KM-tv5km]

Love you, Tom!!! Thanks for making things fun for us, and even more thanks for breaking this down for us!!!

[@sullivanradley]

Relaxing. I love Studio Time! Thanks, Tom, for bringing it back!

[@davideboeuccvalbusa9212]

Thanks a lot Mr Junkie XL. Great video and superb job

[@MarceloTezza]

The "breath" coming from the left to the right was subtle enough, and perfect enough.

[@StevieMasters]

Amazing stuff

[@muzikfreak0930]

AWESOME !!!

[@fetriahmad]

thanks for sharing JXL!

[@nakanda]

Gosh! It is very, very beautiful!

[@SlyGlassFox]

I really felt like you captured the music of tomb raider!! I really loved the drums!

[@julko28]

Best thing ever with this prize collection - had a lot of fun

[@sagarpandeys]

OMG that track is awesome, everything is just so so perfect, I just love your music.

[@ximalas]

I enjoyed this. Your early remarks about not being allowed to show the raw pieces of footage suggests to me this should also be available as extra material on the DVD/BD. Vieweing different versions of footage combined with their different versions of score would be very nice. I'm looking forward to the next episode.

[@AlexSage]

1:47 Pretty cool chord progressions!

[@prosper7452]

This is golden. I can't thank you enough Tom.

[@vjfrankwalker]

OMG so great wow. Thank you for Studio Time.

[@nirvanafan21191]

Wow, thanks for breaking down your writing process when scoring a scene. I've always wondered how someone at your level goes about that. The markers/notes idea is really helpful.

[@bionicmarsh]

Master!!!!!! 🙏🏻

[@AynenMakino]

Thanks for the video! It's really nice to see you go by each individual instrument and effect.

[@raphaelcosta6006]

So good to be back at studio time!!! Once again a very helpful episode. I especially enjoyed your explanation on markers, tempo changes, and time-based markers.

[@pindopurba]

Thank you very much

[@ob1keno227]

Your videos are pure gold! WOW

[@danknittel1250]

What amazing content! Thanks for taking the time to do these =) Loving Lara's melody

[@joecool8674]

great !

[@Tom_North]

Really appreciate you spending your time doing these videos man👌

[@CrisBlyth]

Hey Tom !! nice to see you back !

[@SpaceMod2]

It's unreal how much detail and attention that goes into each and every sound. And to think this is just an 8 minute section! Also sad to think that basically no one will even hear any of this stuff. Most people don't pay any attention to the music whatsoever. Amazing work.

[@xD3MONxIxSOULx]

I disagree. People pay attention to the whole movie and the music is part of it.

[@nietsmusic]

TheYuutuba I think if people "don't listen to it" you have done a great job as a composer making a score that supports what you see on screen and lives with it in symbiosis instead of standing out of the movie as a whole. The music really needs to harmonize with what you see on screen and help evoke the emotion that it carries. Sure the common consumer won't "listen", it's not radio music but it is a dimension within a completely different medium on it's on which is film. Just like people wouldn't watch a film without the dimension that the score brings people won't listen to a score without the image that the movie brings. In the end, from a composer stand point it is all about harmony, having one element compliment or counterpoint one another to give greater depth to the artistic experience of the finished product. Very thought provoking comment but I really don't think it is relevant, millions will consume this music, just not in the way that you think music is supposed to be consumed.

[@Evli10]

In mixing, composing and orchestration the small details are a huge part of the overall sound of the music. They are very often the difference between a professional and an amateur. So I would say people hear the details very well, in the overall sound! That sound then evokes emotions in the audience in various ways (effectively because of the details).

[@Ex0rz]

People pay attention to the music, but for sure not the little details. Its mostly just people like us, who are interested in the music itself.

[@amomasi9909]

People get the overall sense of the movie through emotion and all the 5 sense. Not just vision. Trust me.

[@ambydash]

Thnx so much. That was really helpful and of course beautiful music...

[@2000stephenellis]

Great insight as usual jxl .... keep em coming ....🎵🎵🎵🎼🎵🎵🎵

[@JohnByrne007]

Thanks for the insight into the music!

[@flexile7939]

goosebumps after 1 sec of the track!

[@pierresavage2832]

Great music, Tom!

[@Bucking_Fastard]

Thank you very very much for sharing this with us. The music is great, I especially love the piano tones in there. As for the tutorial, I find it very inspiring, especially the parts about making bass sounds super wide and the part with your own kontakt instruments.

[@CampSpaceship]

28,000? That's it? This is amazing!

[@ganesansmusic]

Thank u #JunkieXL @studio Time!!! It was so useful!! and eye opening :)

[@aleksanderbibik3265]

Tom, you are a great composer and i really love your film scores. Tomb Raider score is beautiful. I hope WB will release Justice League Snyder Cut along with original score composed by you Tom:-)

[@J-MLindeMusic]

37:15 I love that part.

[@SidJ8300]

Your videos are very informative. Thank you for sharing. However, I am really curious about two monitor screens on your desk. Could you please explain the reason for that ? :)

[@BROWNIIIJAMES]

Great soundtrack, might be your best so far. Would love to see a walkthrough of “Never Give Up” as it’s my favorite track I’ve heard so far!

[@buttonsmash9291]

Good one Tom! Awesome interaction and the 3 tracks as primers was quite creative XD

[@izored]

Can't wait to watch this studio time !

[@Mandy-Lane]

thanks.. i think you are talanted and skilled i would never make anything like this if i tried to make it from scratch

[@jonsand2425]

Very good !

[@ferfer2832]

Amazing

[@BrianMegilligan]

Thank you for this - I found it very interesting! I do have a couple of questions about logistics. You mentioned that you use midi orchestra sounds to give a feel for the overall sound but then you later will record the orchestral parts with a real orchestra. Here are my questions: 1) how do you transcribe the parts? Do you just do a midi conversion to score out of Cubase? 2) do you do the conducting of the orchestra? 3) do the orchestra members also hear the click in addition to the conductor? 4) Since you spent so much time on the non-orchestra FX and sounds, will those sounds be used in the final production mix with the “real” orchestra? 5) When you record with the orchestra, do they also hear the synth tracks? Thanks for this deep dive. I loved it and I’m looking forward to catching up on your other ones.

[@PaulChristoforakos]

so cool!!
