the Comet Pizza amateur basement pizza joint band 'Heavy Breathing' has a series of super good videos and songs on Youtube
WTF?
you can see their incredibly well produced music on youtube here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31rQiiqsv4A
A lot of people in the comments section are surprised at how good they are, everyone is flipping out about how good the video editing is, how expert it is.
What no one mentions is how just good the music is....this is not garage band production on the music especially.
In fact the biggest thing they all have missed is how slickly edited and produced the MUSIC ITSELF IS.
The whole thing is so slick , I suspect that the same people who created the video also did the production on the music.
Its got the same 'sampled' and repetitive feel as the video.
Everyone is focusing just on the video. This music is top grade, reminds me of whoever recorded PRince's stuff for him and Fine Young Cannibals.
isten carefully to just the audio intro to the above song. The real 'talent' here is the studio whiz who put together this elaborate song. Someone in the comments said it was too slick a vid, too professional, too expensive.
If anyone is highly paid, its the studio team behind this music. It sounds as if they took snippets and glossed it up into this technical marvel of synthetic music. THat is the work of a top professional studio.
the music is very slick , and combined with the slick video , it smacks of professionalism in fact it is the music which stands out most as expertly produced. this is some pizza joint basement band?
yes, the music is incredibly tight. not only is it technically perfect...its just the embodiment of the 'hipster cool' angle everyone in the comments section picked up ....but mistakenly attributed it to the video visuals alone.
when in fact.. this music is movie-studio-quality music.
This is the type of song which could be the theme song for a major movie , the intro song...it is very elaborate and tasteful....this is no amateur effort.
then there's this other Heavy Breathing song called 'I no Love' :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zo_euND7Acs
again, super-slick song 'I no luv', same expert production and editing.
Of the two songs, this one, U the ONe I Want, in my opinion is better, but both are definitely mainstream elite studio productions....cutting edge stuff really.
also note the elements of sadism, torture, even murder in the first video, this is the rarified world of military intel , espionage, prostitution, interrogation, torture, assassination. and since we know that intel runs the music industry, are they gradually 'bleeding in' these elements of their reality and making it our own? The ultra rich, ultra debauched, untouchable class dangling these things like prizes, like goodies, to potential recruit psychopaths?
Or just the usual game of keeping Mama Grizzly gnawing on the balls of Average Joe?
Sally Soccer Mom there too , for moral support.
My guess is that a Hollywood soundtrack team put both of those songs together. Part of the psy-op for sure. I think Pizzagate may be more limited hangout gradual desensitization going on. The public is incrementally introduced to the idea of 'yeah, those pizzagaters got away with it. Times are changing'' etc. Also see more of the intentional blurring of reality with fiction so that it gets progressively harder to distinguish what is real from what is not real.
Its got a bit of Elisa Lam mixed in with a bit of Franklin Coverup and throw in a handful of the funny Sandy Hook dancing cops and a bit of the Boston Marathon drill fakery , fake rocker superstardom and fake deaths, with the believable and unbelievable all mixed in together into one big disgusting mess.
The biggest giveaway to Pizzagate being a psy-op to make MEN look bad, could be the money the idiots threw at creating those music videos.
Is this the same Laurel Canyon psy-ops crew getting in on some of the CIA budget money?
the Heavy Breathing tracks have David Rivkin (AKA David Z) written all over them.
check out the Wiki, he's got the exact profile which I just laid out. Extensive connections to Prince, Fine Young Cannibals, and Hollywood film editing

David Z (music producer)
David Z (born David Rivkin) is an American music producer, engineer, mixer, and writer from Minneapolis, Minnesota who currently resides in Los Angeles, California.[1]
He is most well known for his long-standing work with Prince, but has also contributed to award winning albums by Etta James, Billy Idol, BoDeans, Buddy Guy and Neneh Cherry. He worked with Elisa Fiorillo in 1990 on her album I Am, which included the singles "On the Way Up" and "Oooh This I Need", and with Terri Nunn from Berlin on her 1991 album Moment of Truth. He also produced the US #1 single "She Drives Me Crazy" by Fine Young Cannibals (creating the song's signature snare drum sound[2]) and the a-ha album Memorial Beach. He was a member of Lipps Inc, with whom he had a US #1 and UK #2 hit with "Funkytown."[3]
Biography
The Z Family
David is eldest of three brothers each of whom work in media entertainment. His youngest brother Bobby Z. was the original drummer in Prince's band The Revolution whilst his middle brother Stephen E. Rivkin is notable for his work as a film editor, particularly as editor of the Pirates Of The Caribbean trilogy of films and Avatar.[4]
Early Work
After spending much of his teenage years in a variety of local rock'n'roll bands around Minneapolis, Z spent time between Minneapolis and Los Angeles throughout the early 1970s songwriting and engineering. His early work is perhaps most known over this period in his writing contributions for Gram Parsons' first solo LP GP, particularly the track 'How Much I've Lied', before going on to play a major role in establishing not only the Minneapolis sound but through his innovative use of drum machines, loops and samples much of production aesthetic now synonymous with music from the 1980s. Many collaborations of material were produced by David at Paisley Park throughout the late 1980s and 90's.
Prince
During the mid-1970s, David encountered Prince playing around the Minneapolis scene. The pair went on to record a set of demos with Z engineering which ultimately led to Prince signing a recording deal with Warner Bros. Records. Although much of the detail of Z's exact contributions to Prince's albums is lost in the myth surrounding Prince and his prolific writing and recording, it is clear that his input, recording technique and production are intertwined intrinsically into those recordings. His most well documented contributions to Prince's folio of work are his writing, production and engineering on 1986 hit "Kiss" - originally a song given to the band Mazarati by Prince for their debut album which Z was producing[5] - and his recording and engineering of Purple Rain.
Soundtrack Work
Z continues to work successfully in the field of film soundtracks and scoring. Aside from his early work with Prince on Purple Rain and Under The Cherry Moon, Z's work can be heard on the 1996 John Travolta film Michael directed by Nora Ephron, where he produced songs by Al Green and Kenny Wayne Shepherd. His songs with Tevin Campbell "Stand Out" and "I 2 I" are featured in Disney's film A Goofy Movie.

This is again some more over speculation. I like your spirit but you are reading wayyy too much into this. I am a musician, I have played around the local music scene in NYC for almost 15 years and producing high quality music and music videos is much easier than it looks and extremely common. It's not hard at all to produce stuff like this nowadays. I hate to admit it but I really do like their music and it kinda makes me sick to my stomach, lol. Their videos are awful however. But really nothing to it, the fact that their music and videos are well produced is nothing strange in this day and age.

What do you think about the production costs of the video? Edit: Also, why are the Taylor Swifts etc. of the big-time music scene ... why are they spending so much on their music productions, if it's so easy? Just a question. I used to play also, years ago, never recorded but it would have been not high-tech, analog.
joey4track ago
Not as much as you think. Honestly this stuff isn't particularity hard or expensive to do these days and many lower level local bands I know have professional videos and albums.
bopper ago
Would you be implying that there would be (there is no) use for Muscle Shoals and Wrecking Crew quality musicians also? Just a question again.
joey4track ago
Honestly that depends on your taste in music I would say. But of course you will hear the difference if you were recording in a $20K per hour studio but what I'm saying is it doesn't take much to put out something of 'professional quality' on a lower budget. Those HB videos could have been done on 5K-10K or less depending on who you are working with. Many times bands will get discounted prices on production from their friends, acquaintances etc..
bopper ago
Still a bit confused, but thanks. It's hard for me to correlate "taste in music" w/ level and skill of musicianship, and again I am wondering what is the difference between the 'superstar' recordings and productions and 'nobody's.' Are we not in need of George Martins or (excuse the name) Phil Spector's etc. anymore? Don't worry if you don't have time.
joey4track ago
Like I said that really depends on your taste in music. If you like huge production or not. Or if you like something in between. Big time producers exist because there is a market for that. There are also people who like more lo-fi sounding stuff like early White Stripes or Black Keys just to for example.
bopper ago
Okay, so what you're saying is that in your opinion we are not hearing "$20K per hour studio" quality with these CPP bands?

bopper, its the old 'baffle em with bullshit' strategy. They cannot see the contradiction of dog shit which is up to chin level immersion levels here.
On the one hand , everyone knows that there are STILL expert music producers like the Rivkin brothers around who can STILL sell their skills and expertise to movie studios and record labels
On the other hand, there are hot air shills here claiming that its all effortless 'in this day and age' and there is no special expertise or talent involved in earning millions as a music producer or video producer
lol, shills .
nailed again
bopper ago
They're not shills, but the whole thing (music quality, production) is still pretty confusing to me. And getting so caustic and angry about it really bummed me out. Oh well.
