Coffee with Misha from NAMM. Subscribe!
Love your videos. Keep up the good stuff and to be happy.
Hola from mexico. ¡Ajas!
No Coffee Ola!
Best one yet imo. as far as informative, this was great Ola/ Misha!!
Especially the picking technique spot..I had the tip of my finger cut off in a factory job when I was 18 and I had to relearn how to pick using my middle finger and thumb, hate how it looks, but it works! \,,,/
None of you had coffee. I feel betrayed!!!
Great video tho
@@IStabz Dude you rock . I am so inspired when I hear people relate overcoming obstacles. Thanks for sharing!!!!
misha has a super refreshing honesty about him that is really relatable...moral of the story, hold yourself accountable
Yeah, when he said that his band has "hit the ceiling!" Very frank!
this is true in any line of work. Be on time, work hard... no one likes working with people who don't put out.
Yup. Too many people place the blame on others instead of looking at themselves and looking for the problem and fixing it. Humility and humbleness are other good qualities to have.
Dude, Misha is hilarious. He's a dork that has a real love for music. It's genuinely refreshing to see someone like him in the industry. Between Ola and Misha they make a great duo.
A lot of Metal guys are huge dorks. We're all nerds
@@frosty6845 But then you have a huge segregation in the Metal community. If we were all nerds and dorks and understood/love Metal, why is there so much gatekeeping? Why is there so much hardheaded shitty closed-minded opinions?
Oh wait, nerds and dorks are just socially fucked. Carry on, I answered my own question.
@@thequatropus Musicians != Listeners
@@thequatropus cause theres a lot of metal nerds who think being a nerd and knowing a lot makes them superior, it's more a case of the 33% of people below average intelligence just have louder voices than the other 66%
Swedes are quiet and reserved.
Then they drink.
And then they wake up next morning with a death metal band endowed with HM2 pedals.
BLOODBATH!!
Entombed
HM2 pedals for everyone !!! :)
I may not make eye contact but I'll look you square in the Mask and tell ya the truth!
Basically all my Swedish friends.
Clickbait. There is absolutely no coffee.
lol
For SHAME!
Well now I want coffee and it's 11:30 at night
and zero guitar either very lame. Probably the worst Ola video ever. I expected to see Misha whip out his favorite axe and start schooling Ola on how to chugg or djent, WTF?
HHhahaha shit
Misha is one of the humblest guys I know of in the heavy music scene. He was so advanced in his art and creativity years back then, and yet he is so down to earth and open about band business, money and career. Easy to say his charisma is one of the reasons he acomplished a ton of stuff with Periphery and all other endeavors. Much respect, awesome video Ola!
It doesn't matter where you live. If you play 100 watt guitar amps you usually avoid eye contact with your neighboor.
True story
You guys are both down to earth! Should do a collaboration 🎸🎸🎸
Electric Scars nice!! Hell Yeah!!
Super Nice Genuine dude, you can tell. Someone that loves what he does.
Jesus what kinda coffee did you give Misha! He can talk! 😂🤣😝🤘🏻
:D
He's always been this way. Cool dude, remember him posting on SS.org all the time.
John Clark 69 Yes he does. John Myung there’s only one. 🤷🏻♂️
Watch more interviews, that's just him
It’s part of what makes him so great. Dude is just full of information.
You should coffee with Nolly
Peter Wilson 10/10 agree. He’s so interesting and knowledgeable.
Omg yessss
And Nolly's voice! Good lord, it's the most heavenly, proper English accent XD I would love to hear/see this!
Well, a proper English brew with Nolly.
he a brit so u better get some tea
Clock: 4 a.m
Me: I think I'll watch an Ola video instead of sleep.
Lol crazy same thing I’m doing
This is awesome. I'm still waiting for coffee with Adam Dutkiewicz. I've requested this like 5 times before, so I'm just being that redundant guy in the comments that says the exact same thing every week. I'm just gonna start narrowing it down to "Coffee with Adam D". Starting now you can expect this comment every week haha.
That would be amazing to see. I'm going to request this along with you
I fully support this.
+1
You have my bow
im glad it's been mentioned that making music and playing in a band is just a passion and shouldn't really be relied on to help you be financially stable
@Difa Ramdala do we look like a rapper or a pop singer that can make a million net work?
@Difa Ramdala wrong century dude
Everyone is Periphery’s attitude and down to earth mindset is why I do not hesitate on buying their albums on more than one or two different formats. I’ll always support them \m/
Sorry it’s so hard for you guys to make a living. I appreciate what you guys do.
Misha and the rest of Periphery are the most genuine people you could ever meet. I was able to see them play live just do to happenstance.Their drummer walked into the burger place i worked at. I was able to meet the whole band. Great guys, keep doing what your're doing. Same for you Ola, these Coffee's are great!
6:30 "I want to be John Petrucci. If I study his songs long enough, I will become him. There's a time I believed that. Now I'm failing, but I'm failing right behind Dream Theater. That's pretty cool"
Fu***** epic interview. So casual and fun. Subscribed!
*fucking* is the word you're looking for I presume?
Misha is still getting PTSD from when John Petrucci told them they need to get their shit together lmao
Holy shit! When was the last time you heard a musician be so honest they say “we’ve hit our ceiling.” 😳
Love how real Misha keeps it - no illusions or romanticism about the reality of being in a “big band” in 2019
I discovered Periphery during that tour, at the Stockholm gig actually. To me, they ran away with the show. They had energy, the songs were focused, and I walked home that day with a new favorite band. To me, by comparison, DT felt tired on that stage, like they didn't really want to be there. Periphery stole that night in my eyes. So, good going, Misha!
Ola and Misha are both so down to earth and don't sugar coat their words, especially when it comes to the music industry. Love these guys!
When CD industries will die, part of my heart will die too. I love buying CDs, it's a physical objects that you can actually hold in your hands and listening independently if you have internet or not, if you have premium apps or not. Moreover you have a piece of art to look at, the cover, the lyrics on the paper...the QUALITY OF SOUND. Man i love Periphery and love CDs to, i have all Periphery's discography (and of many abands) and I'm proud of it
Vinyl! Its getting popular again
I still buy cds I use Spotify as well kinda like blockbuster I’ll checkout groups if I enjoy their music and albums I’ll buy them I have all of Dream theater albums everything from when day and dream unite to their new album a view from the top of the world
Opened it right in the middle of work! Thank you!
I laughed out loud at that "He didn't even yell at us" and "I'm not mad, just disappointed", HAHAHA
Misha "Right" Mansoor
Great video and guest as always Ola!
Misha “like” Mansoor
@@HiramEscandon I know! He says "Like" a lot......Right?
The “Doom Car Bomb” sounds like the most metal shot to order at the most brutal bar in town
Okay, so the Car Bomb part is a shot of Jameson or Bailey’s Irish Cream. What would the Doom part be? Hmmmm.
@@mgradiant patron
This was a damn good interview, thanks for doing it. Misha is an amazingly insightful guy. Sounds like he has his shit together. Can't believe he was only voted as the 23rd most influential person in Brown Magazine.
I loved Ola's Face when he hears "It's Metal" @ 22:24...
That varg face
I really enjoyed this one. The honest talk about work ethic, diversification, etc. is not heard enough I think. No money in music; Misha is making a living and Periphery not something he is reliant on for money. Such a different reality from the fantasy I believed as a younger person that I would just play, rehearse, write, gig and somehow I would make money. Focus and determination along with other valuable traits separate guys like Ola and Misha and me , the guy watching their videos. loved it . thanks.
Misha is hilarious. Kinda wish Ola would play along with the silliness more lol
he's Swedish, Swedish people aren't silly
until they get drunk
Another Great Interview and its so Sad Musicians cant make the money. I'm sure it detours some great musicians. I am 56 and Grew up in the 80's as a teenager. Nothing was more exciting than Knowing the first Tuesday of each month was the New CD releases. I would drive 20 miles to the Record store and buy many CD or Albums based on Artwork. Having the wait and unknown of what I would find made it so much more satisfying than instantly knowing these days of a New Album or Song I know I can listen to for free. You miss the full experience of an album by not having the Artwork and Lyrics.
Yeah having to look up lyrics all the time is so frustrating
Same here bro. I remember going to waterloo records in Austin tx and you could listen to the cd before you bought it on headphones lol I remember 20+ people with skateboards getting off the bus just to listen to cds and look at the artwork and read the lyrics while listening to the cd. Crazy times. I actually was listening to Slayers god hates us all when 911 happened. I'll NEVER foeget that
you got Misha saying things he hasn't said in other interviews. great video!
Misha always has the best energy. This was a great one.
"yeah, we make music for fun". ended up being one of the most influencing metal band.
3:30 John Petrucci being a dad trying to set his kids straight.
Misha: "You were a ray of sunshine"
Positive Ola FTW!
What an amazing interview! The best episode so far in my opinion! I can listen to you two talking all day, man. So fun and informative.
YES you asked about his picking technique, I was really curious for that. Thanks Ola!
Absolutely awesome interview, Ola. Misha seems like a really cool guy and a very good friend of yours, opening up, and it went to a really nice conversational level.
periphery has one of the most unique sounds i've ever listened to. love them
You know that's the whole Meshuggah-Periphery/the birth of "djent" reference there at 10:20 right
Good one, sherlock
Dude tried to own the word "djent" as if it was a word he came up with. I've never cared for him because of that. I followed him for years, well before Periphery, dating as far back as the Mesh forums in the early 2000s where the word "djent" really took hold. I just don't know why he would've ever done that knowing so many knew the REAL origins of the word.
Robert.... because everyone has attributed that term to him which he didn't understand and then he embraced it...he's said it in past interviews
@@RobertLandrum13 I was always of the understanding that Misha coined the term. Care to shed some light on its true origins? I'm actually interested.
@@celestialmonkey Absolutely not. Fredrik of Meshuggah came up with the word before the nothing album.
I loved every episode of coffee with Ola but this one is the best so far
I literally loved the chemistry between you and Misha and it was so much fun to watch
Love Misha and Love you Ola so much, Thanks for what you do
Master of the universe and Hail Stan are just two really amazing and mind blowing albums
I never really listened to Periphery until this new one, but man I'm hooked on HAIL STAN. Misha seems like a real straight up kinda dude. Might have to spend some time with their catalog. Great upload, Ola.
Now that I'm 55 my passion for being on stage has turned to enjoying my music. My love for collecting guitars and equipment have become my passion. I do have respect for those that go out there and gig but for now I stay home and play with my toys 😁
"Nolly, even though he played bass, was the best guitarist in the band" lmao he is honest
Ola is spiking that coffee. Misha is wired! Amazing video of course, really in depth topics about the modern music industry.
2 of my fave guitarists! ❤ I first heard Periphery at the Stockholm show with DT and fell in love! Thanks for a great video! 🤘😌
Misha is so nice and humble such a cheerful guy , wonderful interview Ola ! Cheers guys and rock on!
Very interesting video ! The reality of today’s music business (a.k.a trying to make a living through music related stuff) is a topic too rarely discussed. Great to hear you talk about it ! Thanx for sharing !
Misha is awesome! He seems super humble and always puts humor in all his projects. Thank you Ola for having him on your show.
I LOVE Misha, thank you Ola for bringing him on, You're a great dude too !
Man, I really appreciate both of your help when it comes to being a musician. You're obviously both doing it and are optimistic about it, but you don't hide the fact that it's difficult and that you can't really do it to "make it". Misha is great when it comes to advice about managing yourself and straying from the 9-5 path, that was inspiring to hear. What's most inspiring, though, is the desire to keep music a passion rather than just a financial path.
non scripted genuine interviews like this make me smile , especially when the dudes in it are so nice!
Guys, I suffered through your picking technique woes about 14 years ago. I used to pick like Misha then one day forced myself into the 'proper' technique. Luckily it only took about 6 months to adjust, but man did it open up the world of tone. No ragrets. Join us on the dark side, Ola!
I love listening to Misha talk
Man it's crazy going from watching those early Bulb vids and seeing Misha now. It's crazy seeing how much he's developed
Cool to hear him talk about the Thrash and Burn tour. Saw Periphery on that tour in Toronto. I still have the whole show (poorly) filmed... somewhere. I've seen Periphery 6 times, and each time there was a different line up.
I love this subject matter!! work ethic is key!! No one tells you that when you are a musician, you immediately have to operate as a business to survive.
i remember Misha from before Periphery when he was just known as 'bulb' on the Petrucci forums. This was fun.
This was the best most natural interview/conversation yet. Learned a lot. Great job Ola! Also, just got your CD and it’s awesome.
I packed a bowl and hunkered down for this one!
Are you really watching on the toilet?
@@bikesnbeerz
I laughed a lot harder at that than I'd like to admit.
Ola, great interview.
Misha is awesome and so honest about how the music industry has changed plus the vision for periphery he has and how diversification is key to surviving and succeeding.
OG Andy Sneap forum! Those were good times... we learned SO MUCH!
Gotta love how Misha is super insightful and how willing he is to share his advice and wisdom. We need more people like this in the world. Thanks for the jams Misha! P:·IV's all killer no filler 👌
thanks for sharing your experiences as modern metal musicians. It’s so useful to hear and take advice. I will now release a triple album on cassette tape, get all guitar tones from a 15 year old windows laptop, saw off my thumbs for better picking, have super high expectations and work about 1h per month on my music. Thanks guys! Success, here I come!
This was a really interesting watch! As someone who works in a small game "studio" of two people and shows games at conventions (almost always at a loss) there's a lot of parallels I hadn't considered before. Hearing the similar struggles Periphery went through gives me a lot of hope for my little studio. Thank you guys for doing this and thank you Periphery for existing lol
I'm not saying that the past coffee with ola haven't been like this, but i think that this one has been the most genuine one. Misha's such a nice guy and you both gave us your most sincere opinion about those subjects. Thanks for that!
This is one of the best interviews i have seen in a while.
SUCH A COOL GUY. I remember chatting with "Bulb" in the Soundclick chats and forums back in about 2006 or so (I posted my first online music as Dimaension X there). He was the first musician I remember using DFH1 in his music, and I couldn't believe that the drums were samples. It inspired me to finally buy EZ Drummer and get more into creating my own music.
This video has so much free game, a lot of the stuff you guys talked about not only applies to music but almost everything else in life. Good shit
"Swedish people are distant, quiet, and reserved". I'd probably be more at home in that country, then.
The depth of this conversation is particularly amazing and provocative. Cheers!
DOOM, Car Bomb... Which t-shirt is more badass
Sam Smith
I feel like the car bomb hoodie is like a Misha signature hoodie at this point lol
I thought the shirt said "Car Womb".
The Good Tiger shirt beneath the hoodie at the end.
Alexandr Demidov dude Car Bomb is very underrated imo
I love how real both you dudes are.
Cool little segment about the picking, I actually used to play exactly like Misha's old technique. Better yet, I had contact with him in a YT comment section about it, because I was thinking about switching up my technique at the time. He told me he was still happy about his picking at that point, but I ended up changing mine not long after that. Glad he noticed the difference in attack between the 2 styles too.
Awesome interview and many, many insights for those who really listen!!! Thank you, Misha and Ola! Cheers, Richard from Paris
I would love to hear/see more about the differences between Misha's 2 picking techniques, the old vs new.
I've been following him a while and as someone who has also battled with pick posture it would be an awesome topic to see more about.
Binging on these coffee videos now! So good!
Around 35:05 Ola disappears into the astral plane as he is an awkward sweed that doesn't do hugs haha
Haven't started the video yet, but already LOVING THAT ONE!!!
Even though I am not a professional musician and can not relate to everything they said in the same way they do. Misha is so down to earth and the second he gets his point across, I immediately agree with him. He s such a great person. And I love Periphery.
This is probably my favourite CWO so far, I think because he was so candid about the business side and also candid about what he thinks the band's potential is. Killer, loved it. Thanks Ola.
I guess we can be really grateful that musicians are still releasing music. I dunno … I’m humbled by what you do. Cheers.
I've never been super into Periphery, but I will always listen to what Misha has to say. So much insight from both of you!
4 years ago I did click fast. But never finished the video.
After 4 years with real world experience working. I fully understand the part about balancing job aspect and passion aspect. I'm lucky that I'm doing stuff I like. But for some time I pushed and pushed something that it lost meaning.
Now I have or I will be having the same mindset that I'll make products I like and I want to use and making money is just the by product.
Amazing interview. Cheers from Argentina dudes
Oh yeah! We all want to see this episode!
Misha has such a sane view of the industry. It's refreshing to hear someone be so realistic and in control.
Thanks to both of you. Not only was this fun to watch, but it puts in perspective the travails of the mere mortals who are trying to do something in the musical realm as well. 🤘🏼
Glad I watched that one. Real world guitar talk
Ola! Don't you ever change your picking technique, we love it. :)
Man, I used to be so uninterested to Periphery but I love Misha so much. Very well described: a modern metal musician. It's inspiring.
DEVIN TOWNSEND ON COFFEE WITH OLA PLEASE!!
A whole lot of wisdom comming out if Misha, for people that me (and us) that want to start in music.
This was awesome...Ola and Misha both seem like truly genuine dudes...not to mention how fucking amazing they are at what they do.
It was really interesting hearing about Misha’s picking technique. I went through the exact same situation, but luckily for me I made the switch much earlier in my time playing. It took me a couple months to get it down and since then I developed my own sound. I can only imagine how hard it is to change technique AFTER developing your sound...
One of the best interviews I've ever seen. Just two normal guys being real about the industry.
this is trully inspiring to me in what to do and how to think about doing what you love i work as a musician playing violin since 2010 but guitar is what i really love and makes me feel that im here to do that in the way i can, thanks misha and HUUUUUla love from Paraguay
