Did anyone else have an issue with accessing this video for the last 2 days? Also, will this affect who is eligible for the giveaway? I tried to comment on the video when it was first posted 2 days ago, but it was set to private shortly afterwards and it didn’t become public again until I was finally able to post my comment just now.

[@odealianaffairs9001]

because of you im addicted to granular synthesis now

[@dizzlermusic]

As a music producer, watching these podcasts with producers and musicians is the best thing ever. Theres nothing more fun to watch to be honest :D

[@colebaltazar1696]

My favorite part was at 39:00 when VR talked about how he actually brought his whole desktop setup to play his first show

[@marisabi3295]

respect the drip VR be wearing.

[@MKROOFFICIAL]

Oh man I love how technical and in depth he talks about synthesizers and stuff. I’d love to have a conversation and geek out with him

[@rubik3511]

MKROOFFICIAL VR is so much more mature than the host (who believes he’s Joe Rogan) lol

[@vareable646]

No one Virtual Riot : Wub Wub Wub Wub Screech.....

[@Smugpeak]

[@Detura]

PIEXCES funny and original

[@solomonramsa]

[@chaoszero926]

I really like 3:18 when Virtual Riot talks about his musical upbringing at a young age (on top of his fascination with engineering) and the significant role it plays in creating songs that are well thought out and make sense musically even though he primarily makes dubstep, which often emphasizes and prioritizes the technical aspects of music production like sound design. It’s a great reminder that, in most musical genres and styles, the key to making great music that connects with people and has long-term value in the music industry is by getting good at creating and finishing fully realized songs (no matter how good you get at music production, marketing/branding or anything else related to the music industry), which means learning music theory and composition (as well as at least one instrument like the piano if necessary). Virtual Riot is a very talented producer and sound designer and I like some of his songs, so I’m glad I got find out more about him. Another great Cymatics Show podcast episode!

[@StiwieMayday]

I love how you can totally tell that VR watches Mr.Bill content.

[@abelgarcia1342]

59:04 I liked the conversation about gaming a bunch. Haha I would have never known that VR was a gamer. It's so cool!

[@konradsikorski1646]

18:00 "yeah, ganz... ganz cool" haha

[@frvmeprfct]

12:35 is my favorite part because this talks about his road to sound design, and it is real interesting how Virtual Riot does his sound design. Btw I subscribed lol

[@ludwigschmidt4133]

59:10 when he said he played Games like Portal. Gosh love the sarcastic humor of it!

[@EvoDanceOfficial]

10:00 when he talks about idols. thats the first Virtual Riot song i ever heard and i fell in love

[@Mattrixx]

Favorite part is Literally all the time you guys are talking about video games 😂 sounded like a normal conversation 1:08:00

[@spencert94]

33:18 Internet 2.0 was in Baltimore lmao I was there and dancing on the stage lol. That was also one of my favorite shows i've been to. It's sick that stood out as a memorable show to him as well.

[@hushko]

20:20 i love skrillex

[@Moon-xp4ek]

*VR:* _"yea so this is something really personal, also here's a really niche thing i do while producing.."_ *Cymatics:* _"yeah yeah cool, so i'm fuckin dope at smash. like rlly good idk"_

[@OMNIWAV]

And here we are 3 years later studio time is back!

[@eddyj.5269]

At 32:00 when he's talking about the broken rail and the confused security 😂

[@HgeanKidNebula]

I agree, this part had me laughing out loud

[@dg20038]

Yall need to get SeamlessR on cymatics

[@greedokenobi3855]

Funny you mention that! The first time I’ve saw Steven’s face and heard about Cymatics was on SeamlessR’s channel! And although I was already familiar with VR’s music already the very first time I actually saw Virtual’s face was also in a SeamlessLive stream! They both came a long way!

[@headphonezmusic1727]

Yes

[@williamrauscher4277]

I've never clicked on a video faster in my life

[@NRTKDNB]

YOur comment is original like Darude Sandstorm Comment from 2010

[@moon4lord]

11:28 Skrillex logo in Minecraft xdddd

[@MrLOL5322]

6:20 really resonate with nothing stimulating your senses. I don't have much exciting happening with my life living in a busy city and working a boring job but going home and just messing around with Ableton and making mixes with my favorite dubstep songs is the one thing that gets me going. One day I really wanna get good at making music and maybe make it big but I just wanna have fun with it.

[@Aero_TV]

1:08:01 Loved the creative ways to sample literally ANYTHING, even in video games ! :)

[@nathanielstella]

My favorite part was the discussion about school and how going to production school impacted Virtual Riot. This touched base with me since I am currently in a production school/program 51:01

[@MattMakesMusic]

Fire episode!!! The greatest sound designer EVER!! feel like we were missing out not having Drew on this one tho, to really dive deep on those heavy engineering questions.

[@dafingaz]

40:00 use what you got to do what you need. Lol. That trackpad show!

[@valentin_boes]

Thank you for this interview! It always motivates me, when someone I look up to talks about how everything started - and it just reminds me of my situation now.

[@ZefParisoto]

34:01 wtf he like freezes completely for a moment haha :D

[@JonStar]

I love the part he says the craziest guys hes been in a studio with was Skrillex. Also about the new Spicy riddim drums! Can't wait for that. Hearing about his past experiences as a organ player, also his first time playing, so funny hahah. Bringing his big ass computer to play, I cant picture it right now in my mind lol. Anyways, I've been waiting for this podcast, one of the best so far. Can't wait for Eliminate on the show too. So much inspiration!!!

[@0Human1]

Fave Moment is when I saw the notification that VR was being interviewed. 100% made my day. 0:00

[@herxdnb3894]

Nice one. Loved the whole show, but especially enjoyed his backstory on sound design, around 12:40 :)

[@AmanBansil]

VR is so awesome. Thanks for this interview Steven. Hope you liked the songs I handed u on USB in LA 🤘

[@MrSlate]

VR is one of my biggest inspirations. I always knew he was classically trained and I've seen him as an internet icon, but it's just so amazing to see his personality. I need a backstage pass XD

[@silentspaceship]

If I could ask anything, it would be Where VR got this hoodie

[@Brandonheat1]

ANYONE KNOW???

[@perhapswimliwom8162]

he probably got it when he was with his fiance in japan

[@fraxz88]

That's funny I looked for it 5 minutes into the video.

[@doseddubs9842]

seriously we need answers!

[@arkath5458]

18:48 : "When I go to eat, I always watch youtube or something" Lol that's me right now

[@omnicorum]

41:07. I'm probably gonna actually try this advice. It seems like a really good idea and I don't think I've ever heard of someone doing that. Who knows I could be toooooootally wrong.

[@haphaz7ard]

48:06 for mixdown

[@Orkey]

43:02 YOU NEED TO MAKE A VID OUT OF THAT EYYYY

[@ThatOneGuy138]

Was at both Massive and him supporting excisions tour, crazy experience!!!

[@Ritorikal]

oh shit i havent even watched this fully yet and im satisfied with how this episode turned out!

[@SandeepKumar-eb2bq]

Next SKRILLEX please 🙏 by the way this is awesome 🔥

[@SunnyzPC]

Skrillex don't even do big interviews, he wouldn't come on this podcast, atleast for now.

[@VHAMI]

Am...that's hard

[@lordleo9047]

From what I understand he's a bit of a hermit and doesn't like talking much

[@anonymanonym6472]

Not gonna happen

[@greedokenobi3855]

One of the dopest interviews so far! Been following both y’all careers since way back and you guys both came a long way! Funny thing is I’ve seen both your faces for the very first time on SeamlessR’s channel. Peace fellas.

[@MrTalJacob]

1:01:07 - Whooow you too playing Starcraft ohh yeaa! Definitely my favorite part!

[@PackOfWolves928]

the conversation about the idea of a song at 23:00 is my favorite for sure!!! oolaciles older music always sounded soooo insane but FELT chaotic and disorganized for me.

[@LeateqOfficial]

Yes !!!! I’ve been waiting for this podcast Thank you guys 🙏

[@FreeD00M]

59:00 Damn dude is a hardcore gamer, too. BTW heard your productiopn years ago, cause I knew your cousin and she introduced me to your music ;-)

[@switchfade_music6139]

Hearing all the extensive musical background he's had. Super intensive, but got him to where he is today!

[@donnyforgione6724]

The entire episode was great you guys, I can't even pick out a favorite part. Overall the most interesting part was to hear Virtual Riots back ground and where he started.

[@ABunnyVTuber]

21:36 this 1000% percent. Split your studio time up, when you're songwriting, you want to be able to just get that idea out in a state of flow without interruptions, then you can go back and get nitty-gritty with sound design and mixing

[@jochosmith]

47:21 This sounds like something one could easily do with a fruity peak controller XD. But cool idea, thanks for the inspiration :)

[@aswathyramkumar]

Omg! Virtual Riot on Cymatics Show!

[@chriskalbacher5838]

Favorite moment by far is when Virtual Riot makes that noise @1:21:04 dreading doing a timed cook up 🤣

[@sotschiofficial]

Favourite Producer of all time 🙈

[@TheLoner]

49:50 definitely....and all the stuff about references from other tracks and matching eq's n stuff cause that is where my biggest problem sits

[@asymmetrickmusic]

39:04 when VR talks about his first ever show and that he brought his tower PC cause he didn't have a laptop yet

[@CapitalCapacity]

5:00 with the organ certification is pretty cool

[@jaszci6395]

Best regards from México!!!

[@apfelkuchen4672]

1:12:20 love this :D By saying one shouldn't listen to this he just made it more interesting :D

[@jonasdobbelaere9438]

From 16:00 is rly awesome, he really has to upload more videos and stuff like that its so helpfull!!

[@laxer1207]

I am eternally grateful for you guys for doing this interview. God bless

[@mememan2428]

the best part about this was the gaming section at the end lol. would love to see more VR content :)

[@AceLeach]

My favorite part was definitely where VR talks about how he researched how the 808 worked to make a hi-hat, and recreated it with FM synthesis making an open high hat. like 25 mins in

[@polysaw]

loved the part around 1:13:30 where they talk about the sound design in overwatch!!

[@viertoncrap]

Oh! Thank God! I thought you were a gacha!!!

[@joaquinreyna4866]

My favorite part is 0:00 to 1:21:37 because he is amazing and ive wanted to see this for so long.

[@aiims_music]

I really liked the part when you talked about idols and collabs at 20:10 :P

[@ABunnyVTuber]

VR is such a nerd, this was such a fun interview

[@prizmal]

I loved every bit! This was a great feature :) so insightful

[@xrenanperesx2857]

Dude the gaming part is always spicy XDDD best part of course

[@Miszor420]

Great interview!!! waiting for more

[@dafingaz]

44:00 you guys should check out the iLoud speakers. Very portable and good range.

[@taylorwaggoner9998]

Was 1:17:16 the conversation that inspired Bossfight Afterparty? One of my favorite songs from VR and then hearing this makes me wonder. def my favorite moment

[@joelk03]

This has been something everyone wanted for so long! Thank you so much!

[@mkfggamer3791]

53:56 This really helped me out coz I’m planing to go to the university and I really wanted to know more about it Ps great show ❤️

[@TENMAJKL]

I like that part with making samples from scratch.

[@JjVa20]

Love this guy! We should have Extra Terra in the show too

[@user-xz7dy6jo1u]

Glad you guys finally had him on Whole thing was solid

[@planetpless]

I’m definitely copping the VST when y’all drop it!

[@ABunnyVTuber]

16:44 shout out to Andrew Huang. If you could get him on as a guest it would be awesome, especially with how he's killing it on KZbin

[@masy7894]

Yeah

[@DJDELTIX]

Virtual Riot is the one artist that if I met I'd probably faint, man has taught me everything I know with music because of his tutorials 😂

[@bigdupolas_guppus]

[@dafingaz]
