1
Should we spend two minutes eyes closed meditating before we start just to like really get here?
2
Sure, okay.
3
Let's do that.
4
That's a first.
5
Nice.
6
Does meditation help you creatively?
7
It clears the distractions.
8
So the distractions can get in the way with a direct connection to the creative force. Do you play instruments?
9
Barely.
10
Do you know how to work a soundboard?
11
No. I have no technical ability.
12
And I know nothing about music.
13
You must know something.
14
Well, I know what I like and what I don't like.
15
And I'm decisive about what I like and what I don't like.
16
So what are you being paid for?
17
The confidence that I have in my taste and my ability to express what I feel has proven helpful for artists.
18
Artists are eager to make the pilgrimage to Shangri-La Studios in Malibu to work with Rubin.
19
How many studios do you have here?
20
There's the main control room here with the live room.
21
The place is minimalist to say the least.
22
There's no mirrors, no TVs, no signs of Rick Rubin's extraordinary success.
23
I've never been in a recording studio where there's not gold records and Grammys.
24
Do you have like a tiny ego room somewhere?
25
I don't.
26
I used to send them all to my parents and I don't know where they are now.
27
It's a distraction.
28
If you start thinking about doing something to achieve that, then you're not focused on making this beautiful thing.
29
It undermines the purity of the project.
30
I like the idea of getting the point across with the least amount of information possible.
31
And that's what you're doing in a recording studio.
32
You're listening to music, to sound, and trying to strip it.
33
Just to see what is actually necessary.
34
Getting it down to that essence to start with is really helpful in understanding what it is.
35
On our first day, he brought us in on a jam session with saxophone great Kamasi Washington.
36
What are you listening for?
37
Like right now, there's chimes, piano.
38
Yeah, I'm not listening to any of those things.
39
What are you listening to?
40
I'm listening to the feeling.
41
How do you listen to a feeling?
42
Well, my body's moving.
43
I feel that melody awaken something in me.
44
There's something familiar about it, but I don't think I've heard it before.
45
The feeling of familiarity is a good feeling.
46
If you haven't noticed by now, Rick Rubin talks a lot about feelings.
47
My aim is not to have my presence felt.
48
Unless it's necessary, unless it's helpful.
49
His presence is laid back, literally.
50
He usually listens lying down.
51
And barefoot, with his eyes shut.
52
You might think he was napping.
53
I try to listen as closely as I possibly can.
54
And when my eyes are closed, I feel like I'm there with the music.
55
It may not seem like work, but Ruben hears things and senses things other producers don't.
56
Back in 1993, a few stray guitar chords on a Tom Petty demo tape caught his attention.
57
Tom sent me demos of about five new songs, and none of them really struck me, honestly.
58
None of them spoke to me, but that guitar riff that opens a song was something that was played between two of the songs, just like a warmup.
59
I drove to Tom's house and I played it for him.
60
I said, listen to this piece.
61
I feel like this is the best thing on the tape.
62
Write this one.
63
And that turned into Last Dance with Mary Jane.
64
Last Dance with Mary Jane, one more time to kill the fame.
65
That's going to be hard, though, when you come back saying, I like the thing that happened accidentally in between two of these songs.
66
That's a tough sell sometimes, isn't it?
67
I'm not trying to sell it.
68
I'm just sharing what I'm feeling.
69
You know, like if they don't want to do it, it's fine.
70
Rubin has shared what he's learned in a book, The Creative Act, A Way of Being.
71
It was published in January and is his guide to harnessing creativity, something he figured out how to do his sophomore year at New York University in 1982.

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
