Making music with the sounds of snowboarding.
Making music with the sounds of snowboarding.

Red Bull paired music producer isaintjames with professional snowboarder Marcus Kleveland to create one of the more interesting videos I’ve seen from them. You know the sounds we love so much while on the mountain? The sound of getting strapped into your bindings, the sound of the board leaving the snow, etc, etc? They turned all of that into a song.

Obviously it’s not purely those sounds. There are horns and bass and other things included, but the general beat is built off the sounds of Marcus Kleveland shredding at the 2024 Swatch Nines at Schilthorn, Switzerland. Pretty incredible stuff.

A big open turn on a freshly groomed slope. Edges digging into the snow. Hopping on and sliding down a piece of metal with the base of a Snowboard dragging along the steel. The flapping of the Jacket and Pants going high speed into a 28m plus-sized jump. Lip, Take-Off, silence. The stomp of the board touching solid frozen ground again. Intertwining the art of Snowboarding with the craft of Music Production.
