To show off more like do crazy guitar playing, better effort for general people, I don't think they care about that because a lot of my fans aren't necessarily musicians. And in some ways I'm happy that I'm not, because if I was, then I would maybe try. So because I'm not like a very technical shredder type of guy either. It's like they just want the groove of the song. That's the more simple songs, because for the general public, they don't care about you playing in seven eighths or whatever. And I found out that those videos, mostly don’t do as good. Because as a musician, you do stuff, maybe technical stuff or fancy things to show off. And I have no idea what does better than another video. I've stopped a long time ago to try to make like viral videos. So is there anything you are ever surprised by? So yeah, just working on that was very exciting for me. And yet your videos are so entertaining and imaginative and witty as well as being like beautifully produced. Usually the metal genre is kind of limited to a certain type of demographic.

They watch it every so often just to make themselves happy. That's the way one of our most viewed videos. An actual metal cover “Sultans of Swing.” And if the listeners don't already know, we've collaborated on one of those videos. So hopefully I can go on vacation once in a while. Then usually I get it done and then I have the Friday to maybe do other stuff like another type of video or starring on a new song.

Yeah, usually I finish the song on the third day and then I start shooting the video and I edit that. And by the third day, I'm usually starting to mix it down and adds a lot of details. It's usually or it's always guitar that I start with and track the basics of the song and then try to move things around and find a demo version of it.Īnd then usually the next day I go for the vocals and start adding stuff, maybe solos and all this. How I usually work, by Monday hopefully I've already found a song that I have on my list or sometimes I just go searching for something and then it's just basically start to record like the main rhythm stuff of songs. I just like to work by myself and do everything by myself.Ĭan you take me through a normal week when you just start fresh without any video, any audio and you get maybe a song suggestion from a YouTube comment? But usually there's someone else in the room or something that says, “Oh, he plays everything.” But I try to tone it down. I've always considered myself a vocalist. But it's still a funny thing to say, I think.ĭo they immediately ask you what kind of musician you are, because you play basically everything? I am a bit more comfortable with the term than I was maybe a couple of years ago. I emphasize the musician part, but I am a YouTuber and that's what I am. But yeah, I have often said YouTuber, but a musician. Like when people call me a YouTuber, it sounds funny to me.
