- I decided to make a video where I stfu and make music.

I thought I should pin this as some people are missing it in the description and giving me props for the video footage. 😅 The imagery in the 2nd half is stock footage. I initially started editing my own b-roll from previous things and decided it'd be more inspiring to work with the more talented eyes of videographers around the world (and compensating them, of course).
Great song and very interesting to see how the elements were put together. Just wondered if you get an enjoyable creative buzz out of the video editing/creation part too?
This was totally inspirational, even more no-nonsense than usual, I love it, keep them coming!
Something is changing in the induatry. Forget OpenAI, how about OpenArt? Im inspired ❤
its all good, you already showed us that you are perfectly capable of shooting this yourself :)
Meh, you’ll never be able to make everyone happy.
This is the ticket. As musicians with channels, regardless of what we make in a week, a weekly video of just musical tinkering is exactly what makes all of this worth it. ♥
Even better if you don't have a channel, work in a completely different field altogether, and all you do is tinker around with music
He's a talented lad. It was heartwarming to see process and output.
Just so you know, although I appreciate the sentiment, I can honestly say that in any video of yours that I have watched I have not wished that you would just STFU. I also appreciate your humility and talent as I believe them both to be real and genuine. So, thank you in advance for your upcoming video of you "in concert" for our listening and viewing enjoyment. But remember, we appreciate and enjoy you talking as well. PS - Wishing you and yours a Very Merry Christmas, a Blessed New Year and a Celebratory, Relaxing, and Peaceful Mood through the upcoming Holiday Season!

agreed, but it is nice to see the process as well without comment, just like u m a m i and VenusTheory sometimes do
My problem on his livestreams is that he forgets to finish phrases and sentences - he doesn't talk enough. "Okay, I'll just do... now over here there's a... never mind. Instead I'll... you know what? Let's not do that! If I can just get this to... ah... there it goes... So, that's one of my favorite tricks to get movement..." and of course his screen is too dense to figure out visually what he's doing. But if he got totally folsom about it and talked like a tortoise, I don't think that would be a good alternative. So, I usually just shrug my shoulders.
I don't know why autocorrect changed fulsome into folsom. It just tried again, too. Is folsom even a word? I know it can be a name, when capitalized. I've had autocorrect replace a real properly spelled grammatically correct word with a make-believe word before.
I agree. I appreciate his opinions on even non music related topics because he tends to present everything in a nuanced and thought provoking manner.
Yes Benn. I want this to be a trend on CZcams actually lol let’s do it
Yes, I concur. This is an amazing trend, that I hope continues into 2024
PLEASEEEEE do more of these man. you are such a truly fantastic producer and musician
yes!
Wait we're supposed to actually make music and not just content?
What's important is if you are content.
Though I feel like content content wouldn't be that good.
... I'll see myself out.
A picture is worth a thousand words. A video is worth a million. That section about TRS midi is priceless!!
This format is the one i like the most. Now i know how someome who does create music for years does work.
now that's synthfluencing
Thank you for this, Benn. No words were spoken but I felt spoken to by the song and video with it. I get a deep sense of isolation - all the empty places...
Probably the best tutorial on the creative process I’ve ever watched ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This made me incredibly nostalgic and maybe a bit sad for the path not taken.
7:26, thats aarhus trainstation :D denmark represent !! :D thx for a beautiful song
This is fantastic Benn. So helpful for someone new to soundscapes, sampling and the like. Thanks SO much my friend.
I loved that you have a sense of time to the process and showed things you didn't use. So often these kinds of videos are a bunch of jump cuts and then a final track.
this is exactly the kind of content (/art) i want to experience, thank you for this!
This is mesmerizing - what a beautiful, uplifting, hopeful piece! Thank you for making my day just a little bit brighter.
This was really moving. I don't understand how you can be both one of my favorite youtubers and one of my favorite artists at the same time. Keep doing what you are doing!
As a just 18 college student studying music and wanting to grow myself as an artist and a person, your work and your channel truly inspire and show just how great I, and anyone can become. Thank you.
The layered modulations in the high end sound scape are hypnotic AF❤
Appreciate the willingness to experiment (and the 414!)
Looking forward to following whichever avenues you decide to pursue from here out, narrated, silent, or otherwise
Amazing, Benn! I didn't want the song to end 🙏🏼❤🔊
Great collage of moments of creation and showing of the atmosphere in visuals. Inspires on another level :)
Thia is amazing! I feel blessed and grateful to get such an intimate insight of the process of creating this song.
Please more like this! ♥
This is awesome, love seeing the behind the scenes collage and then how it all comes together in the final piece.
Thank you Ben. I love ambient and electronic music. This is very nice ❤️
Yeah. This is the stuff! Love your other videos as well, but youtube needs more of these!! Just watching people make music is amazing. I was really inspired and immediately wanted to head out to the studio as well!
I love it. First I started curious and then it fully relaxed me. Thanks for this and would love seeing this format more in the future.
Its great to watch you work, thanks for putting this together.
What a cool little glimpse into your creative process. You move with such pace (at least compared to me). Consider me inspired!
You just waking up and making something like this is why you're by far the most valuable creator on this platform.
It's almost as if you've been a highly regarded artist for the last 25 years under a moniker of some sort! 😉
Really love this piece. And interesting to see the short snippets of you working in your studio.
Wonderful, uplifting, intricate, emotional. The absence of people amidst the very human visuals pulls the musical narrative along nicely.
NEED MORE OF THIS! and with what i need is seeing people to motivate me to use my gear more and make music!
beautiful, this channel is such a gem. i've enjoyed your music for years but did not know this channel existed until today. this youtube channel should have millions of subs with the quality of videos you're producing. thanks!
This is so cool and personally perfect timing for me to see this. Thanks Benn
Love the track and the behind the scenes view. Thanks Benn.
This was really great to watch man, really inspiring.
Really beautiful and inspiring music. The videography was excellent as well. I can only dream of the place the video conveys, the peace and quiet, like everything is just fine for awhile. Thank you Benn.
Beautiful song Benn! Loved seeing your process too.
Listened to this on the way to the airport after visiting Japan. I feel like I relived the whole trip while watching the city and listening to your music, such a melancholic moment, thank you!
This is pure gold, thank you ❤
Love it. What a nice start of the day! ❤
Beautiful, Benn. Inspiring. Thank you.
Wonderful! Loved every second!
Loved this. ♥
This is great, please make more of these videos ❤!
Thanks for this, Benn. It was definitely inspiring. I’d welcome more of this content.
this is so much the vibe i needed right now, awesome
A lovely peak into the process! Thank you! I have the exact same bird t-shirt. Reminds me to keep singing.
I love your channel but that was the best Christmas present, thank you kindly
You’re on to something with these! You should do loadss and loads of these I think!
Outstanding! Thanks for sharing this.
This rips. More of these, I adore this format so much!
Beautiful creation
A beautiful song from a beautiful soul. Thanks Benn
You where unsure about this format, but man this is soo good :) Ill keep watching this as long as you want to make it. Even thinking of doing something like this on my own channel. Really inspiring :)
Love the austere and moody photography in your vid Benn. And of course a really beautiful track. Seeing the process in it’s imperfection is inspiring :-). Thanks for sharing this!
Fantastic track, I enjoyed the journey. It was cool to get a WIP peek at the different stages. When you brought out the handful of MIDI adapters...oh man, I know that struggle. It's so aggravating that there are multiple formats, and the "try a few until it works" thing can really derail a creative session. Thanks for sharing the creativity!
excellence. enjoyed the ride of your process down to the final piece. Good stuff, great art. thank you💚
Absolutely love this! Thank you Ben! You rock, and so does this track :)
The imagery in the 2nd half definitely sets the mood of the song. With eyes closed I can sense calm and peace. With the imagery, I feel a sense of foreboding as the audio weaves me through a sense of longing for my youth and the care free world of my parents protection.
I never realized you could play all these instruments. Love the video and love the song.
Appreciate what you do Ben 💪🏾
Can't wait to see it, cool meeting Benn!
outstanding my man
Hey Benn, not sure if I've posted on your videos before, but I'm a fellow producer, music lover, creator and downright evil scientist and I just wanted to reach out after watching most of your videos over the past couple of years and say that I really enjoy everything you do. We're fragile as human beings and it's not always easy being in the spotlight having so much creativity and so many opportunities to embrace. You've inspired me so much and I want to thank you for being part of my journey, even though you don't know me. This song was so cool and I really dug how you put this video together. I like this a lot and let's see some more musical adventures from you. Talk about the things that inspire you. Keep them coming brother 👊🏼🙌🏼💕👍🏼
Wonderful music, Benn! Bravo!
fantastic content. Touching, motivating and also informative.
Legend.
That was nice. Thanks for sharing, man.
this is actually very inspiring and helpful to see some of your "struggle" without comment, and very enjoyably cut
I enjoy your videos... but this?! This made my day. Thank you for sharing this awesome track and the process
Nice Ambient/Downtempo and video of course.
The first shot was so beautiful. Love the music too.
Certainly qualified as some magical moments for me, so SUCCESS! Thank you!
Just what i needed, thank you
Fantastic. Thank you.
far out! Gave me goosebumps.
Very inspiring @BennJordan I love the piano melody, the synth sounds, the video footage, heck I love the whole damn thing!
What a lovely piece of music Benn.
Beautiful.
love the mood. and your violin face.
Hell yeah...breaking out the old portastudio!! Awesome man.
Beautiful music, love it!
I love this video.
It's what I needed to see and hear.
So good. Thanks for this
From whence ideas come. Thanks for sharing, Ben.
I would love to see a video of you mixing one of your songs. You always get a solid mix id love to see your process
Cool and inspiring.
Reminds me of how Primitive Technology videos felt like a fresh air, when somebody just does stuff without endless talking.
That's very relaxing.
really nice Benn
Good to get a glimpse of the experimentation and effort going on (and don’t forget the video editing on top of the music production). For some, you might want to call this song ‘The Cold Truth’ 😊
this was awesome, love to see it . . . .and hear it!
I enjoyed it, I jammed along on my bass and ended up going full Peter Hook with it.
Holy hell.. This whole video was excellent, but the music video at the end was jaw dropping 👏👏👏 excellent work
I've been listening to your music almost non-stop on Spotify lately (you have such a large and fantastic discography). I'm always so impressed... I wish I would've taken the plunge and done this, instead of MRI. Anyways, thank you so much for sharing, and please never stop. You do inspire me to maybe learn and do this someday. Music is the vernacular of the soul. You have a big fan in me.
Lovely sounds!
And the lefty bass and violin playing was a bit of a shocker ; )
Lovely work.
IT SOUNDS SO GOOD
Beautiful track! Mesmerizing.
Love this style of video!
