LINKIN PARK & SAYA

Before my high school class 2 friends sang "Crawling" screaming in class, I first heard "One Step Closer" on MTV Asia. Honestly, these 2 songs and of course "Papercut" were not too familiar and dare to say I liked them. However, when "Points Of Authority" appeared, this band was really cool, especially the ending part which might be a bit difficult to play for a band that didn't understand sequencers on stage.

"Somewhere I Belong" I first heard it at a hotel in Jogjakarta 2 hours before the performance. It was really random and once again I didn't like it either.

Got a loan of the second album on cassette and the track "Session" stole the same attention as the track "Cure For The Itch". This is cool.

When LPTV was there and several times the members of Linkin Park showed them recording using Pro Tools.

Ahay here is our similarity.

Home Recording Using Pro Tools.

2007 was a fun year. Besides "Minutes of Midnight" was released and I read the article in Kompas newspaper right a few days after I finished my thesis exam. It's true that I gave the cassette as a graduation present, because the producer was Rick Rubin.

Of course without forgetting the previous collaboration album with Jay-Z, which made me fall in love until now with 99 Problems which was also produced by Rick.

And finally I had Pro Tools in 2009, was taught by a cool mentor, was able to write a book and got a job from it.

Moving forward far without missing the collaboration with Steve Aoki and other cool songs. Suddenly Mike livestreamed on Twitch every day making songs using "Live" and revealing all his habits, his intelligence through music production in a Live Streaming session from home every 10 am.

This is crazy. As far as I know, there has never been a musician who live streams almost every day just to "maintain the DAW" and continues to inspire in difficult times for all musicians who are on a break from live on gigs.

And then last week, right after filling career day (inspiration class) at my child's school, LP returned with they livestream.

Cool.

I was accompanied by LP and they works, from school days until returning to my child's school.

Sebelum temen SMA kelas 2 saya nyanyi "Crawling" teriak di kelas, saya terlebih dulu mendengar "One Step Closer" di MTV Asia. Jujur 2 lagu ini dan tentunya "Papercut" belum terlalu familiar dan berani bilang suka. Namun ketika "Points Of Authority" muncul ini Band memang keren, terutama bagian akhir yang mungkin agak susah dimainkan oleh band yang ga paham sequencer di panggung.

"Somewhere I Belong" dengerin pertama kali denger di hotel Jogja 2 jam sebelum njagong. Bener - bener random dan sekali lagi belum suka juga.

Dapat pinjeman album kedua dalam bentuk kaset dan Track "Session" sama mencuri perhatiannya dengan track "Cure For The Itch". Ini keren.

Pas LPTV ada dan beberapa kali member anggota Linkin Park nunjukin mereka rekaman pakai Pro Tools.

Ahay di sini letak kesamaan kita. 

Home Recording Pakai Pro Tools.

2007 adalah tahun yang asyik. Selain "Minutes of Midnight" rilis dan saya baca artikelnya di koran Kompas tepat beberapa hari setelah saya kelar ujian skripsi. Bener juga saya hadiahkan sendiri kaset itu untuk hadiah kelulusan, njelalah kok producernya yo Rick Rubin.

Tentunya tanpa melupakan album kolaborasi sebelumnya dengan Jay - Z, yang memang membuat saya jatuh cinta sampai sekarang dengan 99 Problems yang juga diproduseri sama Rick juga.

Dan akhirnya saya punya Pro Tools di 2009, diajari mentor yang keren, bisa nulis bukunya dan dapat pekerjaan dari itu.

Maju kedepan jauh tanpa melewatkan kolaborasi dengan Steve Aoki dan lagu - lage keren lainnya. Tiba - tiba Mike livestream di Twitch tiap hari bikin lagu pakai "Live" dan bongkar semua kebiasaanya, kecerdasan berpikirnya lewat produksi musik di sesi Live Streaming dari rumah tiap jam 10 pagi. 

Ini gila. Setahuku belum ada musisi yang hampir tiap hari live streaming cuman buat "manasi DAW" dan tetep menginspirasi di masa sulit semua musisi yang libur live on gigs.

Dan tibalah minggu lalu, tepat setelah mengisi career day (kelas inspirasi) di sekolah anakku, LP kembali dengan livestreamnya. 

Keren.

Saya di temani LP dan karya - karyanya, dari jaman sekolah hingga kembali ke sekolah anakku.
