Small selection of famous works is never enough

You think you might be interested in art, so you want someone to recommend a small selection of famous works.

Here's the problem. You're doing nothing. You're going nowhere.

This is one of the biggest mistakes. Small selection is never enough. That's not how art works. Laziness is never the answer when it comes to creativity.

I've looked at the Mona Lisa hundreds of times and I still don't give a flying fuck. It looks good, it's a famous tourist attraction, and that's about it. That's all I have to say. It doesn't do anything for me, so I keep looking until I find something more interesting.

Why the hell wouldn't I do that?

Vengeful Semblance Trilogy questions

Earlier Vengeful Semblance questions, June 2019

How did you record and write these albums (7th, 8th and 9th)?

My music is written on keyboard and then programmed. For Vengeful Semblance I additionally recorded experimental sounds and distorted tracks (Fuzz Face pedal and a 15-watt amp). "Notes in Ash Grey" was recorded with a 5-watt amp. I plugged a portable recorder directly into my guitar and recorded clean notes. I used those notes to create guitar tracks.

The Vengeful Semblance Trilogy is quite similar to my other albums. The biggest difference is in the arrangements and instrumentation.

I haven't written this much music since I was a teenager. Some of these songs were vaguely inspired by my old demos from the early 2000s. "Those Who Breathe Into This Night" is the closest to the original demo.

How long have you been listening to metal?

I was 9 in 1994 and my brother was 12. I started listening to a radio show called Metal Union (Metalliliitto) and I remember several metal releases from that year. Nativity in Black - Tribute to Black Sabbath was one of them. In 1997 I was making tapes, listening to a lot of black metal and my classmate bought a compilation called Blackend.

I have always liked classical, soundtracks and folk music, and some of the metal bands made music that was reminiscent of similar depth. There was something in black metal that I found interesting, but the relationship has slightly changed over the years.

My favourite metal bands made the music they couldn't find. Their songs shaped the genre.  People weren't sure what they were listening to. I miss that.

I did all this because of the ideas, not the style, genre or scene.

Art questions January 2020

Q: Realistic versus non-realistic, which one do you prefer?

A: I like both. Realistic versus non-realistic is one of the dumbest and most boring topics.

It's not that simple. It depends on the ideas and how you use these techniques. Some of my drawings have realistic parts that stand out, but most of them are expressionistic and surreal. I don't want to limit myself to realistic only.

Q: What are your favourite film genres?

A: Comedy and horror. I would take Duck Soup (1933) and Vampyr (1932) to a desert island.

Q: What's the best advice you've received?

A: The intellect is just an ingredient.

Q: Has your relationship with art changed over the years?

A: Right now I'm closer to the person I wanted to be. I didn't want to call myself an artist too early. I was good at drawing, but I only had ideas for music until 2014. Before that I didn't take drawing seriously and didn't know who my favourite artists were.

The most interesting works aren't always considered the best. You don't have to worry about official lists and polls. You have to look for these experiences yourself. No one can do that for you.

You either care or you don't. If you love music you will listen to tons and tons of music. It's the same with everything else. You can't be a lover of cinema who's only seen 20 films. Or who's only seen modern films.

People can tell if you're inexperienced or if you're being egotistical.
