With a single Shure SM57, Justin Vernon of Bon Iver wrote one of the biggest debut albums of all time. For Emma Forever went certified platinum in 4 countries, and Skinny Love become the breakout single of the Indie folk movement of the late 2000s. Here's how he did it, and how we can learn from it.

Exactly what I came to the comments to say, Sufjan started releasing music in 1999 and hit widespread popularity in 2003 with “Michigan”, whereas Vernon as Bon Iver didn’t release “For Emma…” until 2008, and that’s still three years past the release of Sufjan’s most popular release in “Illinois”. As a songwriter that was a teenager in the year 2000 myself, still enjoyed the video, though.

Exactly, a good song will shine through regardless. In the past, I've spent thousands of dollars on studio time, session players, producers and mixing engineers (and in fairness I learned a lot through the process), but it was a song I self-produced and mixed myself (badly!) at home that took off like none of the others ever have. People just felt something when they heard it I guess.

Talent implies no work out into the skills these people have. A word of advice, the word "talent" is considered a huge insult by people who work their butts off to get good. I'd suggest to tell anyone who has worked on their skills, is to let them know you noticed how difficult it would be to get that good. You can use your own words, but for hardworking people, it's the opposite of your intentions. They'll probably tell you that they always have room for improvement as well. A true artist, craftsperson, musician, even skilled workers will always know that there's always room to get better. Your safest bet to compliment though, is to simply say you enjoy their work. They want their efforts recognized more than their results generally speaking.

Gotta challenge the Sufjan Stevens part... Bon Iver has far more to thank Sufjan for than the other way round. I'm sure there's something to be said for fans of Sufjan finding him through the insane success of For Emma... But musically speaking, Sufjan was doing this stuff way earlier. Many of his early records (like Seven Swans, Michigan and Illinois) are hallmarks of the indie/folk genre and were also put together almost entirely by the man himself... Super DIY, super inspiring stuff. Love this video though, soooo well put together!

@@AudioHaze I would also add that I firmly believe the tour Justin did with the old Bon Iver cast for the self titled album in 2011 (like his first austin city limits) was a spitting image of how Sufjan does his live shows. Its not to say noone besides Sufjan can have a live band with orchestration, but Sufjan made it a normalized thing in the early 2000s.

6:20, I think pink Floyd's wish you were here intro is the best example of this, the vinyl scraping and distance you here when the first guitar comes in conveys such emotion, then the 2nd one enters and it adds the punch, having that gritty imperfect recording conveys such emotion, which for emma seems to expand on amazingly

It's such an interesting song for them too. They're my all time favorite band. That's because of their trippy weirdness. Yet, Wish You Were Here is my, and many other people's, favorite song they do. There's others that are right up there, but that's the one I will never get tired of. The weird part, is that it's borderline country/folky. Waaaayy out of their normal MO. Just shows how amazing that band was.

Gilmour said in an interview that the idea behind this was that somebody is listening to a song on the radio (the strummed chords at the beginning), grabs his guitar and joins the song for a jam (the solo) and from then on it builds to what the actual song is, very clever idea, they were pioneers with effects and using the studio to their advantage.

This arrived at the right time - I really think that the rawness in indie/folk is what draws me to it so often. I remember asking a producer once about mixing and production and he said “there are no rules - just make it sound juicy. If it takes adding 10db of compression then do it, if it takes drowning something in reverb then do it” and it’s hard to undo the “rules” in my mind but when you do it just all feels more alive. No rules people, experiment and have fun and aim for feel!

I am much happier now that my music sounds more unpolished than before, because now it sounds authentic and honest, more real.

You bring up so many great points in this video, one of the most important being you just have to go ahead and make your music. Don't wait for the right equipment, don't wait for inspiration, don't wait for other people, just do it! If it's raw sounding then so be it. If there are so-called flaws in the recording, so what! Let the perfection be in the imperfection. You make the art that you make. Glen Fricker of the Spectre Sound Studios channel put it best; "If it sounds like it's about to come off the rails then it's good!" This video is so important in its messaging.

“Cheesy af” but greatly appreciated dude. I discovered Bon Iver a couple months ago and felt his story resonated with me. I gave “For Emma Forever ago” a listen and I was totally amazed. This video was also awesome. New subscriber✊🏾

Bon Iver did not influence those artists. They all came up at the same time. It was the musical zeitgeist of the period. And Sufjan Stevens predates all of them.

Yeah Fleet Foxes are at a whole nother level artistically and were working with sub pop early on. I’ve never understood Bon Iver’ s success.

@@dahliafiend I dunno. I like the song Skinny Love. But I don't see Bon Iver as being this massively influential artist as much as maybe the other way around or part of a sort of musical melting pot of that era.

Sounds more like he was saying that Vernon brought indie folk further into the mainstream, which created more space for those artists to reach a wider audience, not that he influenced them stylistically.

This goes back to the way I had to work when I started recording. I just had a reel to reel with sound on sound. It makes you work differently. Now I have Logic Pro and lots of gear. It’s lovely to have….but I use what I learned when I had less.

@AudioHaze -…”WTF was dat!” True New Yorker you are when that car horn interrupted your recording. I’m a New Yorker so I get it! Love it! But more love your videos. These specific videos always grabs my attention and I like how you break stuff down regarding the artists you do the video pic on. Great stuff! Always look forward to your points of view and knowledge. Thank you for sharing. Definitely appreciated. 🙏🏾🤘🏾🎸

Very cool video. I'm not a fan of Bon Iver, but it's amazing to see what went into the production and your analysis of how it can be used as a tool.

Just 2 minutes in so far and your words reminds me of the movie Once. I suggested it to friends and they laughed so early in the story at the cinematography and how amateurish it looked but it actually made the movie better (or easier to relate to). Now, I haven't listen to the album but I will.
