Livestreams have been around since before the pandemic, so people often asked us if we would ever do one. Whose idea was it to go so big?ĭun: That’s a good observation. Twenty One Pilots went all in and effectively staged a high production stadium show. Many bands were doing this kind of thing, but the staging was stripped down. Thompson: I was very surprised about how much effort was put into creating that in the arena. It’s one of those cool moments where reliving that experience, surrounded by people, will be completely different but really cool. Now, it’s come back around where everyone can grab a friend, family members, or a group of people and go together and experience this thing all over again with other people.
The way it was initially performed and streamed was with people essentially sitting at home alone, or maybe calling friends and watching it together that way. The livestream came about because of the pandemic, which meant we couldn’t tour.
We didn’t know what we would do with the livestream after that, but there were definitely the beginning of plans and conversations about what makes sense, and it was like, ‘Okay, let’s hold on to it for now and think about next steps.’ Over time, it started to make sense, and we were like, ‘Let’s show this to people again in a really fun, cool, and unique way.’ We put so much time and work into pulling off that livestream, and I also think about the full circle of this thing. As soon as the livestream occurred, you could go and buy the album. The original livestream that we did took place as a hand-in-hand event with the album release. Guys promise that the second one is heavier, weightier, and more full of meaning than the first album because they didn’t hate writing this one.Dun: That just happened organically as well. Since then they have released multiple singles and now the second album “akimbo” is about to come out. After winning the biggest national youth band contest Noortebänd, Rainer Ild released their debut album Longero & Cheap Chips. The singer has been called “the most powerful Estonian ginger-songwriter” by the host of the Estonian Public Broadcasting TV’s premier chart show “Eesti Top 7”. On stage, they swap instruments because there are only two of them, and their deep friendship shines through and makes their gigs powerful and moving. Rainer Ild is an alternative pop duo that stands out with their vocal effects, songwriting and artistic live performances. rainer ild’s debut album “Longero & Cheap Chips” was released in 2018, after which the band has released five singles and videos.
The band won the Youth Band competition in 2017, which gave them the opportunity to perform at the gala of the Estonian Music Awards. Rainer Ild is an anti-pop music duo that stands out with vocal effects, clever songwriting and original music videos. At the beginning of “Big Waste”, Pauliina Ild, the niece of Rainer Ild, also sings. The album “akimbo” contains 11 songs, of which Robert Linna and “Red Light” include the band Steps to Synapse. “And I’ve used this trick many times now to record different instruments,” the author adds. The vocals of the two songs from the “akimbo” album were sung by rainer ild into his phone’s microphone, after discovering what kind of sound this way makes. From there, art and creation are formed for me.” Sometimes, when I analyze situations that I fear the most, I discover some emotions that are sincere and somehow pure or unspoiled. But by then, I had collected about 40 new songs, from which we finally selected 11. I did this for about 30 weeks until I finally had so much other life in between that I could no longer continue at the same pace. I made a promise that now I would write, record, produce one new song every week from start to finish. Rainer Ild describes the process of making the album: “I started writing akimbo at the end of 2019.
