Twin Peaks / Discussing the Music

To celebrate the impending third season of Twin Peaks, I thought I would talk about why the music is so damn fine.
Let me know what you love about the Twin Peaks music in the comments section below!

Everyone should watch that video where Badalamenti explains how he wrote Laura Palmer's theme on a Fender Rhodes - it gives me chills every time.

^^^^ amazing vid

I see the movement Jacques Cabin from FWWM is a freaking masterpiece.

[@GortholMormegil]

The Pine Floats is for me the pinnacle of all the TP soundtracks, warm and nostalgic

[@iAkis4]

BLADE RUNNER & TWIN PEAKS the best 2 ost ever !

[@ravanaRTT]

Do one of these for cowboy bebop!

[@cloudbloom]

How the fuck did I not know about this channel until now. Great stuff dude

[@Chevron666]

"The Voice of Love" is such a brilliant piece of music. Happy to see you feel the same way about it. I would love if you did a mid season video for the new show; I'm so excited to hear Angelo's new music (on top of everything else about Twin Peaks I'm excited to see return!). Great video. Cheers!

[@TheIanoTube]

one of the best channels on youtube at the moment covering the best topics

[@groofay]

Thank you for posting this. The Twin Peaks soundtrack is one of the best I've ever heard, and Twin Peaks is one of the best shows I've ever seen. Just...what a legendary show and soundtrack. I am incredibly excited that it's coming back. Five days! (My personal highlight: Jimmy Scott singing "Sycamore Trees" in the original series finale. Gives me chills just thinking about it.)

[@owenmorris3958]

Dude talks about The leftovers and twin peaks in the same video. Subscribed!

[@ColombianThunder]

The Leftovers' soundtrack is absolutely beautiful. The shows are also oddly similar in some ways.

[@yeezak5660]

I love Twin Peaks, and I would love to see another video where you discuss the new music.

[@amandahall4234]

I'm so happy to have met your channel. Awesome work!!

[@MaDKrEvEdKo]

Twin Peaks soundtrack is now pretty much the only thing I listen to. 'The Red Room' and 'Dance Of The Dream Man' are just perfection.

[@mistymangham4410]

Lynch's attention to sound is phenomenal... I also dug the music from the roadhouse. I found it seductive, but made me want to take a shower because it was so gritty.

[@noHOPEof]

(politely)in short , "Welcome to Canada!" (the ADR line in FWWM that is often not loud enough) *. . .* 'Blue Frank' complements Monsieur Lynch's 'The Pink Room'

[@mistymangham4410]

[@Ben-xl4hp]

The use of Questions in a World of Blue in fire walk with me is just perfection. Heartbreaking, eerie and beautiful all at the same time

[@zszechuan]

If somehow they managed to incorporate Xiu Xiu's version of the score in the new season I would die

[@kyletomlinson5365]

oh shit yeah I didn't even think of that

[@heitorphoddah13571]

it would certainly fit the mood, it's weirder and eerier than ever

[@dertodesking.]

Great stuff as always. These soundtracks are spellbinding. Kudos for mentioning The Leftovers; a criminally overlooked show.

[@xToony]

The twin peaks soundtrack actively made me want to keep watching just to feel the emotions that the songs invoked. There's no other soundtrack for a show I can think of with such an impressive soundtrack

[@hiddenpowers123]

Every time I start listening to the Twin Peaks album, my brain thinks I'm about to play a final fantasy game. I think Laura Palmer's theme and the FF prelude are written in the same key and ascending notes. But as I keep listening through Laura Palmer, I'm transported to a misty forest with the eerie feeling that the trees are hiding something from me; whereas, the FF prelude is like walking across a crystal pool. Insightful vid, Oliver! link to the Badalamenti interview please :D

[@deathtone1614]

A Guide to Tom Waits would be nice. Just a suggestion. :-)

[@illidrionz5049]

Yes it is. Bone Machine is the best album and you know it.

[@Beliebers4]

everything about twin peaks is iconic

[@saifsheikh7131]

Hey Oliver, I was wondering if you could do a guide on the Velvet Underground? Thanks!

[@CaioAraujoRibeiro]

Love your videos you british hunk of a man

[@crawfordbergl6437]

rip angelo badalamenti and jules cruise. twin peaks wouldn’t be the same without them

[@Rclibertine]

A follow up video on the music of The Return would be great.

[@Stwinky]

Great video man, I'm so excited for this.

[@Nic33rd]

Floating Into the Night is such an underrated album.

[@gamernskater1991]

Please make a vid for season 3!! Loved hearing this

[@mylifeisart]

The Made in Abyss score is quite the same. The tracks act as queues for situations and the scenes and levels of the Abyss itself as well as the creatures that inhabit it are given complex pieces of music that ebb and flow much like the show itself does. The music is as much a character that tells its own story as any of the characters and themes. One of the best soundtracks of all time. Kevin Penkin is a true underrated master.

[@beflygelt]

Lynch doesn't get enough credit for the music of TP. It is after all a Collaboration between Lynch and Badalamenti. Just like behind the camera, he directed Badalamenti behind his piano to get what he wanted (just like you told). What makes the music so great is his vision, his ideas (like playing the music as slow as possible), he shaped it to a large degree. You have to give Badalamenti a LOT of credit for bringing his vision to life with his musical expertise, but Lynch has his hand very deep in the SOUND of his films which shows most clearly in his sound design for all his projects. He also served as a producer on Twin Peaks, overseeing that specific sound he was searching for, and which still stands out so much after all these years.

[@zZEITGEISTERZz]

I am so hyped for the new season! And Yes please make a video on the new music

[@kieranread5387]

Would love a follow up to this on season 3, some great music from both Badalamenti and the bands playing at the roadhouse

[@mistymangham4410]

Pink Room is my favorite track... Its just so raunchy sounding... Yet its so hypnotic.

[@anestojaga6442]

Damn good video! And kudos for mentioning The Leftovers.

[@raymondzrike]

Definitely do a season 3 soundtrack review!

[@otflipz1]

I would love to hear what you thought of season 3, for me it was probably the best viewing experience I've ever had

[@TeenageWheelchair]

I hope they use some of the songs from the Xiu Xiu cover album in the new season. It makes me feel the same way the original score does, but with an even scarier, stranger and more modern twist to it.

[@zsoltkarpati1326]

Would be a good topic to discuss.

[@danielclaro6049]

i love this channel. keep up the good work

[@jasper3660]

Love your Videos mate. You made Children of God one of my fav Albums.

[@negresky6282]

Hi! What did Oliver say at 9:04? "we have .......... ..... of The Pink Room". What strut? Could anyone help? Please.

[@SevenShadesOfNerd]

The third season ended up having a musical identity that's fascinating in its own right. Any chance of a video on that?

[@alysiamerdavid-wasser9165]

Nailed this. Just finished sn 3. ✌💗

[@gigachad192]

Could you do a video about Trent Reznor who also worked closely with Lynch and should appear in the new season. Maybe a guide to Nine Inch Nails?

[@daanpauwels2280]

Are doing some more artistguides? Are you currently making one? Which one? :) I love them all, along with the playlists i'm learning so much! Thank you!! I also like the Delirium Tremens bottle in the background, I live in Belgium you see ;) Can you make guide to Prince or Led Zep (but Lep Zeppelin is not your your style, i guess), or Miles Davis & John Coltrane would also be interesting

[@charlesfrantamusic4659]

I need to watch this!

[@Jamesfirth1000]

The Wedding Present's cover of 'Falling' is ace...

[@louischiasson8522]

im in at twin peaks but when the leftovers gets mentioned i go crazy

[@chrissie9865]

Just a question: In your little intro, is that your actual record collection, or just a stock photo? You could also talk about the way David Lynch does things with sound, like his sound design on his first movie Eraserhead (if you don't know about it you should really look it up, it's so cool)

[@I_Am_Kiba]

Anyone have a link to the video he's talking about at 5:53? It's not in the description.

[@deepcuts]

Sorry Ben! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJi7fXiDbbKbgNE

[@I_Am_Kiba]

Thanks.

[@theorbitsound5234]

You should do a favorite soundtracks list!

[@gooeyllewy3729]

"if you guys wanna watch that interview it'll be in the description"

[@lukegregg5944]

Hey Oliver, great video. What's your thoughts on 'Beck' and do you like any of his albums? He's one of my favourite arists, such a diverse and interesting discrography. 'Odelay' and 'Sea Change' are up there with my favourite albums of all time.

[@anaelhonings8683]

So what do you think of the 3rd season's soundtrack?

[@makrandpai4552]

One of the other soundtracks I believe of this style is 'Cowboy Bebop'. Even the fight scenes are synchronized with music to give that rich effect. What do you feel?

[@bloodnchocolate]

Oh, man! Cowboy Bebop, Escaflowne, Wolf's Rain, Macross Plus - peak Yoko Kanno, and up there in the soundtrack pantheon!

[@makrandpai4552]

bloodnchocolate Yoko kanno :)

[@elizah9408]

Personally my favourite soundtrack is the Blade Runner soundtrack. Vangelis is a genius.

[@robertcarter3570]

Hey Oliver, do you think you'll ever do your modern prog video? I've recently gotten into prog and it's slowly becoming one of my favorite genres so I'd love that video.

[@illidrionz5049]

Hey there Oliver, what are your thoughts on the Broadchurch soundtrack? I think it's really good, perhaps not as good as Twin Peaks' but it does something similar. It's composed by Olafur Arnald, the whole point of the question is do you know him? What are your thoughts on his music?

[@digitramch]

Hey Oliver, can you do a video on how you discover music? As someone not from the UK or US, so my music discovery apart from my own country is from the internet and it feels like i am not digging deep enough and my music taste gets pretty basic from all these top 10 albums from many sites. Even after sources like /mu/ or Piero Scaruffi's lists I feel I am not developing my own tastes and instead feel like my tastes are just an amalgamation or regurgitation of other people's tastes and lists. Don't get me wrong, I explore a lot of music of my own country, goes to small gigs with emerging bands, but the US and UK as a cultural melting pot is where a lot of the innovative stuff can actually get an audience and in turn make the artists seem more validated to make more music that may not appeal to the masses.

[@makrandpai4552]

Adhika Sigit try websites like sputnikmusic and rym. Have found some really obscure bands on sputnikmusic. Try their lists where in they have segregated top albums of all time genre-wise. hope it helps

[@theo_baum]

Adhika Sigit try rateyourmusic.com, it's a website where you can rate and review albums, and see how other people have rated albums. You can go down the list of the top rated albums to discover your own tastes, as I did.

BOY U HAVE TO DO GRACE JONES GRACE JONEEEEES GRRRRAAAAAAACE JOOOOONNNNEEES!

[@MrMeepbeep]

Xiu Xiu have led me to Twin Peaks. Gonna start the original series this Saturday, so hyped

[@gabrielgian8988]

MrMeepbeep I reccomend Mulholland Dr. or Blue Velvet first if you're not familiar with Lynch's work.

[@Neel-ff4mn]

Did the melonhead recommend that xiu xiu record to u, and that's how u got into the show?

[@async6115]

I definitely remember my parents being into twin peaks when I was younger, but gotta admit that melon was the real catalyst in this regard.

[@beflygelt]

fun fact Joan Chen (Josie Packard) directed the film Xiu Xiu (1998) which the band named itself after

[@HEARTMACHINEPLUSULTRA]

The xiu xiu album got me into the show too. It was so eerily addicting!

[@sunepedersen8537]

What is the intro music?

[@maazwaseem8313]

RIP Angelo

[@ivorybooker8957]

I know that this is about Twin Peaks, but could you do one about Mark Snow's X-Files scores. They were so mesmerizing.

[@neongoblet]

Can you do a video on soundgarden? Rest In Peace Chris.

[@vleaky3430]

RIP Juliee Cruise

[@danielbogarth2380]

Completely unrelated but...how about a guide on Fela Kuti...as far as i now you dont really have african music covered yet...and fela's compositions are nothing short of genius, not to mention his bandmates, like tony allen..so, yeah that'd be fine...

[@mistymangham4410]

Do an oped on David Lynch's discography that would be fun.

[@TheMarcin404]

May I just ask if You like a band called Prefab Sprout? I think it's insanely underrated band and I haven't seen that any KZbin channel about music ever mentioned them.

[@youngpsyche1237]

TheMarcin404 Picked up one of their albums on a whim not too long ago, but they seem pretty obscure.

[@daanpauwels2280]

I'm not familiar with the twin peaks TVseries, but I absolutely love the Xiu Xiu album covering the soundtrack! Check it out kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGOWk2uCeK6mpJI

Can you review season 3 episode by episode? If not I would be interested in a season three music breakdown.
