The Sudden Lights Iceberg, Explained.

[@ESCErik]

Hey everyone! After working on this project for some weeks now, it‘s finally finished! Making this video was super fun and definitely something different for me. Thanks for your support! Voiceover is by Ferrante on fiverr, I think he did an awesome job with my script :)

American Sudden Lights fan here, great video! Learned a lot about the band on here.

Why is this not at a million views already jegfkehdodhwifjdueueh

[@ESCErik]

Haha this was definitely the most time consuming video to make on my channel, but tbh 1000 views for a video about sudden lights is still pretty awesome :)

[@thenewjpegsss]

THIS VIDEO SHOULD BE HUNG UP IN A MUSEUM I LOVE IT SO MUCH Also, I feel like another interesting thing to mention would be the ultimate guitar chord sheet for Aija, as it’s the only tutorial I can find, which is sort of surprising as an official tutorial seems like something the band would do, I’ll try and play it to see if I can find anything else

[@ESCErik]

THANK YOU SO MUCHHH haha I‘m really glad you like it :D

[@thenewjpegsss]

@@ESCErik I made an edit as well about something I found, I’ll mess around with it

[@ESCErik]

About the thing with the sheet music, apart from guitar there are some nice ones for piano, I‘m actually currently learning to play Aijā on the piano and it‘s going pretty good lol even though idk a lot about sheet music haha

[@thenewjpegsss]

@@ESCErik I’ll see how accurate it is to determine if it’s worth mentioning

By the way "Haosā" is actually quite a popular song but it is made in collaboration with another group Latvian group called Astronout and it is also published on Astronout's channel.😃

[@ESCErik]

I always love when Sudden Lights does collaborations, I hope there will be more of them in the future :)

[@charliekeet01]

NOOOO I DON’T WANNA WAIT ANOTHER 43 HOURS FOR THIS MASTERPIECE

[@ESCErik]

You can do it!! 😼😼

[@rorx1]

W video, i also first discovered them from eurovision, interesting facts, Latvian prounouncitation wasnt that bad aside milljons vasaru😭

[@ESCErik]

Thanks for the feedback :D And yeah the voiceover I hired didn‘t really pronounce every Latvian word that well, but I mean you can understand everything just fine so it‘s okay I guess xD

[@itsari4471]

About the unknown guy in the video. In some latvian interwiews they admitted that at the start of the band there was another basist instead of Kārlis V. Then the other basist/unknown guy moved to the Netherlands I think so they had to find a replacement. Also it is known that Andrejs was talking to each of the now members individualy about starting a project of this kind, but then ended up bringing them all together, which wasn't hard because they all went to the same music school and Andrejs and Mārtiņš were in the same music theory class. I think Kārlis V. was in the same class too. If not the same class then definatly in orchestra was where all of them met, because Andrejs played and still plays Claranet (also for Liepājas symphony orchestra as a part time job nowadays), his brother Kārlis Z used to play violin in that school orchestra, Mārtiņš played the drums and Kārlis V played the oboe.

[@ESCErik]

Thank you so much for these infos!! It was especially hard finding information about the old bassist, so getting some kind of confirmation about it is great. It‘s also interesting to hear about Andrejs strategy to form the band, thanks!

@@thenewjpegsss Oh right haha don‘t worry, I‘ll be excited for your feedback the next day for me then lol

[@thenewjpegsss]

@@ESCErik I’m sure it will be a great video, btw did you kidnap any members to get information or not?

[@ESCErik]

[@valeriademontmartre]

Please get someone Latvian to pronounce the Latvian bits, please, the pronunciation was very... Questionable xD But, great video and voiceover regardless! Love your vids :)

[@ESCErik]

Thanks for the nice words :) Hiring a Latvian voiceover would just be over my budget unfortunately, so we just have to live with it xD

[@valeriademontmartre]

@@ESCErik bro, I'll do it for free just out of sheer enthusiasm
