Love The Official Year End 2005 BT Appreciation Thread



It's that time of year- to once again, behold the true magical sensation that is Brian Transeau.

BT has been keeping it busy these past couple of years, and it's all for a good cause. As some of you know, he had scored Stealth and The Underclassmen for 2005. The Stealth scores being offered in its entirity at any good record store. Of course, too bad we can't appreciate the bad movies as much as the music

Anyway, as of late, there has been talks about releasing his 5th studio album (which might be labeled as something other than BT, think atmospheric bliss in 5.1 with visuals *animation/film* included), working on his 6th album (a complete instrumental, rock-ish type collab) and another album that is said to be directed at the dance scene, however not much has been reported with that one as of yet. In between all that, he's currently working on a film Catch & Release, I believe he's finishing that one up.

He's been performing & writing material for the past while, it's too bad we don't get him here before he starts touring some of his upcoming albums next year. But I'm patient...

Well, that's a large sum of material right there and I'm anticipating it all (maybe even the rock stuff, it depends). So there you have it, the master behind your classics such as Flaming June, Godspeed, & Mercury and Solace-- as well as true classics such as Quark, Sunblind, Love in the Time of Thieves, Fibonacci Sequence, & The Hip Hop Phenomenon... bringing it to you hard for the year 2006! Much love and support for Brian, show your appreciation people!


P.S.
Oh and by the way, Tiesto had approached BT recently to produce his next album, so that's on discussion...


-musse (& I'm still searching for his pants... for those of you who were around long enough to remember the joke ;p)

I havent seen him live yet, I want to sooooo badly...Laptop symphony and all that...

Brian has always impressed me as a true artist. Movie scores, wicked EDM tracks. All you have to say is Godspeed, Dreaming, and Flaming June

And LOL at that pic of him with a MIDI keyboard beside a POOL!!!

Totally! He did want to release a laptop symphony set/album however, that still is in the shades as of now. It truly does require more effort to operate a semi-constructed *live* performance as opposed to beat matching, and this is why in my opinion it's another reason for him to stand above the rest.

Good stuff guys, keep it coming!

three cheers to BT selling out at any possible chance he gets...

im sure if i had his talent and position i would do the exact same...

its too bad the last and ONLY time i saw him live was 1997 at a crystal method tour, when does he plan to come to Toronto anyway?

BT = amzing inspiration to the rest of us who use synthedit plugs trying to emulate his style.


Posted by DJ Chrono on Dec-18-2005 17:56:

BT better release those 20 something tracks that he said he made that wern't selected for ET. What was that about? I thought he did all this orchestral stuff..


Posted by *~LiSa-LoO~* on Dec-19-2005 00:32:

He's pretty hot...haha

music is music dude, what is selling out anyway? (rhetorical question) I don't think Brian is rich in any sort of way, in fact he's known to have his money problems here and there & does reject the majority of hollywood movies and remixes he's offered from popular artists/labels... seriously, all these talks about people getting some recognition being labeled as "selling out" is really pathetic. he does what he likes/wants (no question about that), you listen to what you like. no need to judge anybody.

mind you this is an appreciation thread, so i don't really want this turned into a debate!

who knows!

maybe in some mix albums, he's yet to put one out (other than r&r, and 10 years)


Posted by DigiNut on Dec-19-2005 04:28:

I don't think I'd call BT a sellout - he didn't really start off doing purely underground stuff. He may be one of the guys that created trance music, but more importantly, he's always done his own thing and not cared what the masses (or even his peers) think. Even when he's done work in the pop music or soundtrack areas he always manages to come up with something new and interesting that isn't just a copy of a copy of the same old schlock.

People have gotta make money one way or another, and he actually seems quite picky to me with respect to the projects he springs for - it's just that due to his talent, he gets far more offers to do work in the mainstream music scene than most other "electronic" producers. He can come off as a little bit of a prima donna when he talks about his production techniques, but other than that I really can't find much to fault him on.

Maybe if he's working on Tiesto's new album, then Tiesto's new album will actually be good.

totally agree with that.

That aside, I'd also like to add he's probably the only person to take into consideration the music he's producing to its played environment, i'm not talking about style, but more so his scores for example are produced in a way to play well in a "theatre" a large hall where echoes are likely and may manipulate any slight misrepresentation of any musical element.. like wow!

OOOHH BT!

He is awesome! Not to mention a major dose of eye candy!


Posted by Orko on Dec-20-2005 14:17:

BT represented the early years for me. I still go back and listen to Ima very often, because I loved that unrefined piano sound he put out.

Over the years he changed and grew into a direction which I did not like. But much respect to him for his old school productions. I will always cherish them.

I hope he goes back a bit and tries to put out another pure electronic album. I honestly did not like his last album with other genres in it. It was his choice, and as a creative artist, I am sure he had to do it for his own sanity. Forcing such a creative person to limit them selves to one style is just murder.

I had the pleasure of seeing him, and shaking his hand at Ultra Spin 1 in the KH, when he opened for Holden and Ferry. Incredible night. The energy he had was awesome! It was one of his laptop symphonies.
