No idea who that is but he looks like a total tool, the james holden one was equally awkward and maybe a bit more cringe worthy. Of course that's to be expected when you studied math at oxford and made trance on the side.

I never really watch these videos but this one is quite inspiring. Savant is quite a character .
Way better than the Sunnery James & Ryan Marciano video for sure haha.
If less is more think about how much more more would be.

I've already seen most of this one, I think its a great one relative to the shitty ones out there. I also enjoyed the James holden one, especially the spoof. The guy is truly excited about making music and that what its about!

I just found it so hard to watch. Especially because he kept talking about how he skinned his synths with naked women and making sexist comments lol. Seemed kind of douchey.
I did find his unapologetic weirdness pretty inspiring though.
Dude is autistic, speaking a second language .... At least he has some sense of character. I wouldn't call him douchy, I wouldn't call him a savant either, something he really reinforces. He is closer to the savant side if you were to put him on a spectrum.
I thought his earlier stuff was brilliant but he needs to stop the whole I release 10 eps a year and focus on 1 good ep. He also went in this rave kid direction I don't really understand

What a fucking twat.
I cannot stand people like this. You guys all realize he's wearing a costume right? And by that I mean both figuratively and literally.
Those "impromptu noises" at the beginning that he seems surprised with once he's added FX? Done a 1000 times in the mirror prior to there being FM cameras in the room. He's had everything setup form the outset.
Don't get me wrong, nearly all Norwegians are nutters but whenever I see someone like this, the voice in my head says "sure. whatever you need to do to take the attention off your pitifully dull existence".
And since when is autism an excuse for perfectly able people to behave like fucking idiots? He can obviously work a computer. He can obviously pose in front a camera. He can obviously make (bad) interior design and fashion choices.
That's more than the average american can do. You get no slack from me because you were labelled a bit different as a child. stop acting like an idiot and hiding behind a disorder that you can clearly manage.
I just can't stand fakes.

Autism is just an American invention to sell drugs to children.
