Tom is awesome 👏 he’s the first major composer who allows you to take a peak at what’s going on behind the curtain ☝️🎶 awesome interview 👌

[@farhadfaraji2844]

@@fernandoblanc How can I follow it? Can you explain more please?

[@FALLD]

@Blue Blubb are you kidding ? check out his youtube channel !

[@reviewyourownadventure2083]

Massive fan of this guy back in the late 90s. I didn't know he was still doing things. I thought he was an electronic musician for a bit and then faded away. I've actually still been hearing his music in movies and didn't realize it. His Junkie XL stuff with Rudeboy from Urban Dance Squad was some of my favorite stuff back then. Melange, Billy Club, Roster... those songs were blowing my old Nissan up back then.

[@Dutch_100db]

def beat - as well :)

Avengers Infinity War is the most ambitious crossover in history.. Rick Beato: Hold my guitar..

[@BinaryAudio]

Wow, the fusion of my two favourite youtube channels right now....excellent!

[@phatjayg]

Whoa, I never thought these two worlds would come together. This is like the nervous moment before your two groups of friends finally meet... and then everything goes great.

[@NahreSol]

Amazing interview, thank you for this!!! Much respect.

[@RickBeato]

Thanks Nahre!

[@chrismitchell523]

His breakdown of Furiosa's Theme from a couple years back is still one of my favorite youtube videos to date.

[@timespace.productions7513]

KZbin is arguably the greatest instructional vehicle of all time.

[@scottglasgowmusic]

24:40......... YES! Experienced that same situation. "I want to go back to samples" after recording live orchestra with Prague Orchestra (and spending tons of money). I was dumbfounded. ughh.. This whole world of film scoring is a challenge.

[@mhandel]

Haha yes I love that he just talks about 80s Miles for a few minutes!!! He's like "while I'm here with you Rick let me nerd out about jazz fusion for a little bit..."

[@RickBeato]

I know haha! He’s talking to the right person :)

[@mhandel]

@@RickBeato I was waiting for him to bring up Aura, lol, but We Want Miles is an amazing record.

[@johnhume1]

What was the live Miles Davis album he mentioned?

[@mhandel]

@@johnhume1 We Want Miles from like, 1981? Amazing album. So is Live Around the World from the end of the 80s. 80s Miles all day!

[@MarlonGibbons]

When you feel like you're sitting in a 3rd seat across from them, rather than behind the computer.. What a great down-to-earth interview!

[@JeffSchneiderMusic]

Great interview, Rick. Watched the whole way through. Heading over now to Junkie XL’s channel!

[@RickBeato]

Thanks Jeff!

[@Jeffery99]

Good job Jeff

[@riverimmanuel7955]

I dont mean to be so offtopic but does any of you know a method to log back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost my password. I love any help you can give me!

[@hankabdiel8727]

@River Immanuel Instablaster :)

[@DerekHunt]

Wow. This video is amazing. Tom's channel is an amazing and the first channel that really breaks down film scoring in the most accessible way. It's a great analog to Rick's channel from the contemporary rock aspect. Thanks guys, this really means a lot to us. You guys are embracing the most valuable aspect that youtube provides - education. I would love a thousand more hours of this. Keep it up Rick!

[@pierrevdb]

What a surprise! Great to see you both together for a very informative and fun interview!!! I have been following both of you guys for over a year now. Thank you for all that you share with us.

[@manikraina2154]

Two of my favourites in a single KZbin video.A great conversation indeed.Thanks,Rick!

[@JulesFox]

Fantastic... I love the engagement of both in this interview. Rick, your expressions (empathy) are priceless. Great questions, great answers and insights. Just awesome. This is one that will stand up to repeat viewing for sure.

[@EK-ro6pz]

Just watching the ordinary conversation between two masterminds, laughing, cursing sometimes :) is such an amazing energy uplift :) thanks Rick, cheers!

[@RaymondCastile]

James Bernard was the Dracula composer, and he had a long career after Dracula. He created many classic British film scores from the late 50s into the mid 70s, then made something of a comeback in his final years as a new generation discovered him. He's one of my favorite composers.

[@scartabellomusic]

Raymond Castile me too! The Devil Rides out! What an amazing score! Check out my top 20 horror scores of all time on my channel! 😊

[@gustavosaliola]

Thanks Rick (again) for letting me know more of Tom and his great work in film scoring. The fact that you make feel people close to the guests is simple proof that you're a great teacher and host. Great video!

[@SamuelPurnama]

God.. I’m so so grateful for you and Tom. Thank God there are still super talented people yet super generous to share this gold & gems. Thank you, Rick!

[@mariodriessen9740]

Thuis is so great! I remember seeing Tom with his band 'Weekend at Waikiki' at the OJC Staddijk, Nijmegen in the Netherlands. That was a long time ago (mid eighties I guess?). I still remember that concert and I went to see two or three concert each week and I forgot most of them, but not Weekend at Waikiki. So why do I remember that gig? I mean, I remember I thought it was great (even though I don't remember the music itself), I remember the name of the band (very important if you want a career) and I remember I had a wonderful evening and I really enjoyed myself. Now, Tom Holkenborg is a very clever man. He is now and he was back then. What he did was quite simple. He just made sure I would never forget that gig, because he and his band changed the whole place. They used fake plants and camo nets and other stuff. Every band I saw there played on that same stage, under the same lights, in the same room. Tom and his friends changed all that, so I remember it even to this day. I still use this story to tell young bands that they don't need thousands of euro's to be recognised. Again, I've seen many young bands, plenty of them were pretty good, but I forgot everything about it. I can't remember the songs of Tom's band, but atleast I remember it was good, I remember I had a wonderful time and, most importantly, I still remember the name of the band. And all because of such a simple Idea. When Tom did his remix (?) of Elvis' 'A little less conversation', I thought that was great and I was truely proud of him. And now, with his film music, and not the dumbest movies either, in a very difficult world with a lot of competition...., man, that amazes me! The guy of Weekend at Waikiki.... I've had my dreams back then. Tom worked hard to live my dreams. He deserves it! Thank you for the great interview, Rick!

[@Betontoon]

.. and then there was of course Nerve! (this is where I saw TH in action - impressive)

[@getthepointx]

This interview is extremely insightful. Just from watching I feel like I'm in a university lecture about film scoring. Great stuff! Thank you tons, keep it coming!

[@detective4719]

What an amazing interview! Tom is just brilliant and shares such a wealth of knowledge and the same goes to Rick. You guys are simply the best! My favorite KZbin channels

[@svyat83]

It was really warm, as you call it. The fantastic atmosphere. Two guys just chatting about things they love. It really cool. Thank you for this interview and for your channel!

[@mtbagz]

Awesome video by two amazing gentlemen. Thanks Rick!

[@Dentomusic]

Hi Rick, I'm a new subscriber but I've been watching your videos for a long time. I would like to thank you for all this, it's unbelievable how much knowledge, information and inspiration you can get from people like you. I'm really looking forward to seeing the Junkie XL interview. Keep up the good work bro and thanks for the knowledge you bring to us. Much love from Germany

[@jamsci67]

Brilliant interview! 35 minutes of inspirational joy for any composing musician regardless of musical background. All power to you both.

[@Paul-Henry]

First Warren, then Rick, it's like a dream :')

[@darlenesheffield9835]

I agree! Both great interviews!

I just love this! Getting to hear Tom twice in a week with my favorite people! Thanks Tom and Rick❣️

[@darlenesheffield9835]

I loved Warren's video with Tom as well! Double whammy!

[@jeradatherton]

Fantastic. I consistently have the same experience with both of your videos: first, I think I’ll probably hear stuff I’ve heard before and then I’m totally blown away by brand new thoughts/techniques, etc. You guys are both outstanding and doing the Lord’s work out here. ✌🏼

[@kswindia]

2 of my Favorite Tutors on KZbin! Your channels are Pure Gold for dudes like me. Appreciate the efforts! Thanks a ton!

[@GregLassalle2015]

Many thanks to you both for this. I've been learning so much from both your channels and...............now together!!! Great interview. 👍🏾

[@francisgori5631]

Fantastic- Tom is a real treasure, and so open with his experience and work. Thanks Rick

[@travisniles6800]

He has the coolest walls ever. Also, I love the way the room sounds even though it's probably far from the standard "acoustically correct" sounding room.

[@bonuebonue]

Just an awesome conversation! Thank you!!!

[@mtorr]

thank so much for this Rick...like you, Tom is one of the most generous out there giving us access such valuable lessons

[@chrispaterson7607]

Loved this interview so much! Thanks Rick!

[@tomfrancis4398]

Thank you Rick! and Tom. We are blessed. Love the coffee and wine on line purchasing. So true.

[@k1lg0re50]

Great interview, and as a huge fan of Blade Runner I have to agree with Junkie. Slight mistake though: James Bernard (Dracula) was born in 1925 and passed away in 2001. In the electronic only film score genre, there's the quite visionary (for its time, 1956) and very avantgarde Forbidden Planet ;-)

[@davidmeyer8756]

I find myself smiling at this. Check out Junkie's Spaghetti Carbonara episode. So great to see him so happy COOKING!

[@theothermilesdoodling6489]

So glad you two got a chance to talk, JunkieXL is great! But man, I'm always in awe of that huge modular system...

[@LordHar]

What a great video, so much enthusiasm en love for music, one of your best interviews yet!

[@yasserdefranca2935]

I've been a fan of Junkie XL for almost fifteen years. Thanks, Rick.

Thank you both for sharing your knowledge.

[@greedokenobi3855]

Cool to see you and Tom together in a video! I love both of your KZbin channels!

[@rookproductions6031]

Two of my favourite KZbinrd together. Thank you both for that.

[@gitaarmuziekschoolpors8112]

Great interview with Junky XL here! and he is dutch too, we're proud of him!

[@TheBossLenz]

I was absolutely floored by this video. Thank you so much for doing it. I had a huge argument with my son because he said that he didn't need to graduate from high school because he had KZbin. I went ballistic but didn't Mr. Holkenborg just validate that in a sense? Thank God he did graduate and maybe because my interests are varied, KZbin stuff finds me... a lot of stuff finds me. Interesting amazing stuff... Honestly, I could go to school on KZbin. Seriously. A friend of mine who's a doctor told me that when she has to do a surgical procedure that she hasn't done in a long time, she finds the procedure on KZbin! Damn... For me it was the last concert Jobim did in Brazil with Jazz artists from America. I think Herbie Hancock and Joe Henderson were there. One of my favorite songs in Life is Girl From Ipanema. Growing Up, it introduced me to Brazilian music. That and Brasil ’66. Anyway during the concert they’re playing an Instrumental Girl From Ipanema and Jobim walks over to Herbie on the piano and plays, the chords to Take the A Train! That was his inspiration for Girl From Ipanema! To me, it was a validation for growing up in the tradition. Watching you guys talk, I felt like I was sitting in the room with you. And Rick, I don’t even know how I got wind of you but I’ve learned a lot already. I’m a couple of years away from retirement. I think I want to follow in the Junkie XL lifestyle. Right now, as soon as I have a vacation, I switch from working from 9-5p to composing from 9p-5a! So now, I have to subscribe to Junkie XL. No Sleep…

A special ❤ to Tom I had the pleasure to see on stage and meet backstage a long time ago, at the Paris Rex Club, when he was half part of Nerve... twas in the early 90s and I was in the indus-electronic-synth scene too

[@michaelbronstein8875]

Wonderful video. Film scores, especially John Williams, was the first type of music that I fell in love with. It was also a great gateway for me into the larger world of classical/orchestral music.

[@ragingchimera8021]

Brilliant interview. I could listen to you guys for days. I bet the synergy between you two would be immens regarding scoring.

[@jasonfoote3115]

Great interview Rick! Enjoyed seeding my two favorite music KZbinrs in the same room at the same time. Thank you.

[@AdamBuker]

You might want to set your camera to manual focus, so the camera is not constantly hunting for its focus point. I had to stop looking at the video and just listen to the audio because that was distracting. Great interview, btw.

[@jeffreycollins7297]

yep, always use manual focus on videos like that, especially when the thing the camera will eventually focus on is 20 feet behind you gents. They always focus on the thing in the middle of the screen.

[@derunsympath]

wait so not everyones focus is on the flickering synths?

[@stephenmaxwell331]

I agree.. Great content but I hate auto focus... It's hard to watch.. Great channel.. Cheers rick

[@mcsputz4494]

It's almost as though the camera was naturally conflicted as to what to focus on - the two absolutely great guys in the fore, or the sheer awesomeness of the modular walls on display behind them. I mean, to be honest my brain was doing exactly the same thing :D Great interview!

[@fennarios]
