It is so relieving to hear Hans Zimmer himself even struggles to come up with at least one theme. That means a lot to me, someone who is an aspiring music composer. I myself constantly struggle with Artist's Block and when I finally compose something, It is so satisfying to have that accomplishment.

"You practice to get spontaneous" is right, but practice also allows a master to make it look easy. Hans is one of a number of masters that makes things look easy. That's a result of a lifetime of doing the hard yards. Every interview I watch like this reminds me that the only way forward is by doing the work. You can't be the noun without doing the verb.

I love Hans but it's funny him saying 'figure out something I haven't done before". Hans is the master of ripping off his own music. Listen to Gladiator and Pirates of the Caribbean, one of many examples. Yes, it is credited to Klaus, but Zimmer wrote for Pirates and Gladiator, he even confirmed this as he was writing for Last Samuri at the time and wasn't allowed to write for any any other movies so he gave the credit to Klaus. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rK-ejLCH3b_MmGg.html

Go listen to The Planets by Gustav Holst then back to Gladiator again. Go listen to Bernard Herrmann then go listen to Danny Elfman. Go listen to Nocturnes by Debussy then go listen to Force Awakens by John Williams. People loan stuff all the time. The Pirates of the Caribbean thing were more a legal thing, and Zimmer did compose the main theme for it, but Klaus, who actually were a trainee refined it. Klaus was a clever guy, and Hans has never denied that.

Depends how you look at music. As someone who’s played instruments for a decade, I often wish I could unlearn everything to create music with a naivety that’s impossible to me now. I love all sorts of artistic expression from classical to outsider music that sounds like it was made by children. If you can enjoy exploring, experimenting and creating sounds it doesn’t matter about your “classically trained” skill level. Just take a shot at it and if you’re having fun before you know it you’ll be an experienced player. It’s not about the destination, it’s about the journey! This pandemic provides a great opportunity to mess around free of judgement. If you pick up an instrument now you could be a master in five years...!! And it can get even more fun the happier you are with your skill level :) reading your comment you clearly love music, I hope you consider giving it another try!

​@@rodneyschannel69 Thanks for chiming in. Well, the truth is, I have very specific musical test, in regards to what I want to create. I'm into soundtrack music, ambience music, electronic music......so picking up a guitar or a bass won't do me any good in regards to creating it. I tried picking up a guitar on my own (there was one in the house) and I just never liked acoustic guitar music 'enough' to enjoy it as is. I tried using DAWs, but they are a nightmare for me and rely too much on the left side of the brain to even operate. But, it's funny you say that because in the last week or so, I've had precisely that thought - my only way out is to approach music as play with NO expectation if I'm doin thins right or well or the end product is good. I had keyboard lessons as a kid and they made me hate music creating. It was music I didn't connect with, the teacher was a bit disciplinarian for my taste, it was about repeat repeat memorie...which is somethin I don't feel I'm good at. So I guess deconstrutin all of those associations with music...is my way out. I DO feel I have music in my soul.

It's true that his style is unique, unfortunately most composers or aspiring composers rather want to emulate him, cause in a way he has pavemented the idea that anyone can write music, why not ? You don't need music knowledge to write music, all this because he has been lucky in his career. But honestly I believe he has limit himself as a composer and so other composers who want to "sound like him" will limit themselves. By the way, he is very prolific and successful. No doubt about it, but I don't think his music will be remember, honestly the last score and probably the only score that I remember from him is Lion king and some of Gladiator. That is it. Everything else that comes to my mind is lots of ostinato passages, some cool sound effects/synths. I think he is an amazing producer, but just an ok Composer.
