Henry Miller
Paul de Fressenel
The godfather of Western music looks exactly how he ought to. A beard fighting for more space on the canvas. Trimodal hair with tentacles emanating north, west and east. He seemed to have more in common with raccoons and walruses than he did with its human counterparts. It did not help that, without fault, he was in some form of a cross-legged asana on a comically incompatible chair. Yet there was something fascinating in his unusual poise, in the effortless certitude with which he and his bare feet approached conversation.

This is the video quote.
How could one man have such an outsized impact on the musical industry (The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Amy Winehouse..)? Is it a signature ‘Rubin’ style? Is it a magical chord? I assumed he must be some magical genius who could dissect harmony like a surgeon. He must have a complex technical toolbox composed of studio tricks, advanced softwares, and production formulas. But no. He surprisingly claims to have ‘zero knowledge in music theory’. The man who shaped the sound of multiple generations insists he doesn’t understand the technical foundations of what he is shaping. Upon hearing that, I was in disbelief. So what, he just wandered out of a forest and accidentally revolutionized western music? This would not hold up in court.
