@Fortifeye 3 года назад

He clearly has an incredible skill, I hate using the word talent because I dont believe that even if you do have a talent for something it will make you good if you dont have skill. Talent is what gets you into it, skill is what pushes you to create amazing soundtracks, and he has some incredible skill. Definitly the next Hanz Zimmer, has already worked on Tenet, and The Mandalorian and hes so young.

@reflexjat3822 3 года назад

The Tenet soundtrack is honestly one of my favorites of all time. Thank you Ludwig

@kyleplatz6295 3 года назад

It really is though. I’ve hated everything Star Wars past Return of the Jedi, but man, Mandalorian came along and made me enjoy something Star Wars for the first time in forever. It really had that spirit. And somehow, Ludwig captured a sort of ominous John Williams-esque theme with that beautiful flute motif. He killed it. The one thing I didn’t like about the entire thing was Luke showing up at the end. Just cast a look-alike, CG was too distracting. The Bucky Barnes guy woulda been better honestly. Otherwise 👌🏻

Started to listen to this artist, in the last few days, and it is inspiring to listen to. Seems to me that how he composes and makes music, is not to be glued all the time in-front of the computer and or to be tied up in a sense with sample libraries , but to use and record instruments into the computer, inventing your own sounds and then putting everything together into the computer.
