Jóhann Jóhannsson - Drone Mass (Trailer)
Listen/Order: dg.lnk.to/johannsson-drone-mass
Deutsche Grammophon releases the long-awaited recording of Jóhann Jóhannsson’s Drone Mass’, performed by the ACME, Theatre of Voices and conducted by Paul Hillier. Described as “a contemporary oratorio” by Jóhann himself, this exceptional work, written for voices, string quartet, and electronics, was inspired by The Coptic Gospel of the Egyptians, one of the codices in the Nag Hammadi library, discovered in 1945 and written in the 1st or 2nd century AD.
In Jóhann’s own words: “The text contains a hymn, unusual in that it consists of a seemingly meaningless series of vowels. The vowels of the final paragraph (uaei eis aei ei o ei ei os ei) can be read (in Greek) as ‘who exists as Son forever and ever. You are what you are, you are what you are’. This, along with other Gnostic texts, is the main text material used in the piece. I was interested in the Gnostic idea of the material world being the creation of a malevolent demiurge-a false god-and that eating the fruit of Knowledge was the first step out of the bondage of cruel and oppressive powers. I was also interested in the idea of the drone, both as a musical device, the bourdon, but also the all-seeing, sometimes benevolent and sometimes lethal eyes that pervade our skies. I have no specific thoughts about how these ideas relate to each other but, to me, they have some kind of poetic resonance which is usually enough for me.”

I really like your videos with music in black and white, I remember one that showed an old mine breaking rocks, do you have it?
Meraviglioso!!!
Sooo beautiful
I’m crying this is so beautiful
My fav music r all from musicians living in northern Euro, now I understand why
Idk why this made me cry but god damn it’s beautiful man
Since the music score form ARRIVAL. R.I.P.
He will be missed, rip :(
These sounds totally befitting DUNE if Johann was still alive.
Wonderfull❤
I can see why Denis and Johann came to agree this wouldn't work for BR2049. This OST births its own fresh identity. It emancipates a completely new and unique charm. Denis and Hans approached it differently. They found the appropriate threshold to create a film with it's own personality but still be bound by it's predecessor.
He was seriously a TOP NOTCH musician ❤❤ he was one of the great up and coming composers of our generation .. still such a tremendous loss 😥😥
RIP brother. Thank you for your service.
I will never listen to this man's music in front of anyone, because of how it always makes me sob uncontrollably, even after the song is well over.
Exactly same here for me.
Bravo ❤
So beautiful! Thank You so much for sharing this gorgeous piece of music! What an adventure through the sonic realms!
Absoultultley astounding book and film...!!
❤
epic
Дякую тобі Йогане, це не просто мелодія, це емоції від кожного прослуховування. Коли мені сумно я прихожу слухати тебе
Йоган в моему серці ❤
Beautiful!
This is so powerful a constant motion like as though it’s a person walking through their life wow 🫣🥹
Sounds masterbatorly
what a wonderful tribute.
❤
A pure beauty, wonderful masterpiece, an incredible journey
Just amazing. Brings such calm and serenity.
Masterpiece composition 😢💜
I will Always love this man
Where can I find this full performance?
Romantic Goth - Tehavis
So magical... ❤ My sadness heart is small. 😢
This’s absolutely exquisite work here sir. It’s turned out beautifully.
Huggable Jóhannsson is wholesome :)
I very much like JJ's work - even saw him live in Brooklyn a few years back. But this wouldn't fly for the BR sequel. I think in one way it brings too much attention to itself and in another, it's fairly uninteresting. Zimmer may have his faults, but when you listen to his, and how he was able to craft new music while also paying homage to Vangelis, you can see why Villeneuve went with him.
I was at the world premiere of Drone Mass at NYC by the Temple of Dendur at the Met, at that section of the Met there are huge windows and during the middle of the concert the sun started to set and it was such an unreal experience. One of the most memorable concerts I’ve been to.
His music alone puts me into this otherworldly state. Like you're watching the last sun set on a city singing as the world ends.
Always love to see his live music
This music can be done only by acoustic instruments!
Bah~ what a find today!! Thanks for the Blissful moments...
Moves me to my core. Profound!
Cocaine killed him. Such a great composer and such an idiot.
masterpiece
I think fordlandia is one of the most beautiful pieces of music I've ever heard
