Immanuel: Inside the Logic Session

Enter the depths of Christmas Joy with me as we dive deep into the sound design and production of my song, Immanuel. This isn't a masterclass. It's simply a look into how I put songs together in Logic Pro. I hope it's inspiring and fun.

You don't have any idea how many times I've searched for the behind the scenes of Immanuel only to be made a fool out of. Thank you

Been listening to Tony for almost a decade! His music is incredible and when I first watched an interview with him I was surprised by how hilarious he is. Personal favourite pieces: All is not lost, Immanuel, Retour, In The Distance, Ember, Spiriteaux, Eschaton (Big fan of Chris Coleman too)

Tony if you read this - Thank you for the amazing work.

I for one would love to see more song walkthroughs from you Tony! It's always cool to see and hear the thought process behind an artist's music!

Your music has been a source of motivation and inspiration for me for almost 2 years now. Thanks for this tutorial video. 💫🎄

Man I don't know if you are seeing this. Last year Jan I took a trip to Japan. I was on a train to Takayama. I was listening to your song Immanuel, while looking through the train windows and seeing all the mountains covered with snow, passing by our train as it moves through. I was thinking about life, mine and my important ones' lives and futures, and how I am going to put myself in shape so that I can bring a good life to them. I still listen to this song from time to time. You inspired me. Thank you and Merry Christmas. (Alright read this again in December.)

Masterpiece. One of the best songs ever written, if this universe had to be put in one song i would choose THIS ONE.

I am completely in awe for this production. Thank you for sharing the "logic" of this piece which I gladly shared with my music loving father! May the Lord God be glorified in this music forever! Halleluyah!

[efibutov]

Definitely the most talented modern composer, every evening I seat without lights and all I do is just listening to this Music. Tony, please, don't stop, your music is pure magic, it takes me to the brightest places in my life

[Gladiuus]

Tony,
I rarely comment on youtube videos. But since this is my favourite song that resonates most with me from your other singles, i just want to say that i am grateful to have discovered you. You definitely touch my soul with your music.

[reversewav]

This was so cool Tony! Would love to see more breakdowns like this for the album!

[mhalsmith]

This song literally guts me in all the best ways. Thankful to have it on repeat this Christmas!

...also, how awesome that you're breaking down your creative process!🔥

[arunthomas]

Thank you so much for taking us into the session inside Immanuel! Its just a pure joy to see the creator of the piece revisiting and exploring it after all of these years! What a Gift!

[eugintrabajos]

First time i ever heard this song, i remember i travelled over years ago inside my brain, throught memories and makes me cry for hours, but after all it was necesary to do it, i didn't know how, but this song helped me to do it. Thank you for your help

Just recently listening to Tony's music. Love this treatment of Immanuel. Curious that a lot of commenters are prob unfamiliar with Western Christmas/advent music and seem to think this is an original composition. It's actually 1200 years old and one of the most frequently performed songs in Western Christmas music. It is a great piece to be realized in an ambient context!
