You know Veritasium’s video on Drew and Gun, the two mental processes? Musicianship is purely a function of Gun. Which means the only way to develop it is to throw yourself into the environment and let yourself figure it out. Musicianship is not something you can develop by thinking. It can only be developed by experience

@L P they're philosophers like good movie directors can be. Put a movie like the terminator or the matrix in a written format and remove the "entertainment" factor and it is a poignant philosophical piece. I also feel songs/music/producers embody this and it's refreshing to see individuals like andrew huang break down the process behind it instead of keeping it hidden like some sort of great magician would.

Coming from bands, and acoustic music, ear candy was never a part of that. Just core instrument parts. But after exploring hyper pop, which is full of bizarre nonsense, it's completely changed my perspective. Even with soft acoustic songs, sprinkling ear candy all over it is really amazing. Total game changer for sure

I think my favorite type of ear candy is a break in the beat, or an entire switch up of the rhythm for a second, It's like a fill but more impactful. I love it when rhythm section is a bit unpredictable like in Jazz and Funk. Sugar is nice but so is spice.

This came at the perfect time, I've been thinking about this a lot lately! I call the process "juicing" One technique you didn't mention I call "subtractive juicing", which is just about cutting out tracks. For example you can cut everything out all the instruments so it's just the vocals for a couple of words (works great for punchlines in rap) or more subtly just cut out the bass for a beat or something like that. These things really make a big difference in creating memorable moments in your songs imo!

This is actually really helpful. Adding little fiddly bits to a track is a fairly obvious step, but this shows you really can push it a lot further than you might otherwise think. I've always struggled with adding 'too many' tracks to a song, and it feels wasteful to me to have an entire track for a single background sound you only use once. The truth is, no one will ever care how messy your sequencer will look. They only care about the end result.

definitely one of the best pieces of advice i've ever gotten in terms of music was actually from one of your older videos in which you mentioned ear candy: the composer/arranger may be the only person who will ever notice the ear candy, but it still fills space that the listeners will appreciate no matter what. it's made me look at ear candy as a thing that's basically never noticed when it's there, but IS noticed when it ISN'T there, which really does make all of the little layers add up to make any song feel more alive.

One of my favorite music challenges I ever did was having a friend provide me a sample of another friend laughing and telling me he'd pay me $100 if I could use it in a track and get it approved by the client. My project at the time was orchestral. So this was QUITE the challenge. But I chopped up and manipulated the sample in a way that it felt like a cello if someone built a cello not knowing what that was. I made $100 that day.

I love using random audio sources and molding them into something completely different. Synths from vocals and vice versa and pads from noise. All kinds of generated soundscapes are a great starting point too. Mr. Bill has a great video on this and it basically says that the source doesn't matter, the effects do. Which I think is a good mindset for exploratory sound design.

The lesson is if you want to make a song better put ear candy in it from top to bottom. I know Michael Jackson tracks are full of it. Recently the pro tools mixes have been released so you can see how much there is. 20 tracks of candy isn't unusual.

Excellent video and really thoughtful additions to the song. I'd also add that some of the intro elements that are pulled from later in the song serve a more traditional (or "classical") purpose similar to opera or musical theatre: In those forms, the overture serves in part to preview motifs and ideas that will become important later. The overture and the intro bits in your excellent piece both enhance the listener's enjoyment by giving a sense of familiarity later in the piece when they come up again. Nice work and excellent job using it to teach.

How does Andrew Huang have so few Spotify listeners, the quality of his content is incredible and his music itself should be 1000% bigger imo

Andrew releases an insane amount of music, very little of which is polished to the point of studio albums. There's probably about 1 or 2 really good songs per album, and nobody really wants to wade through the chaff. That's at least why I don't listen.

I mean of commercial success is your goal, yeah. 3 years seems to be the ideal time between records. Andrew's spoken on this before, I don't think he has interest in releasing a commercial album and he gets everything he wants out of his media output.

@@big_and_fem 3 years seems pretty long. Guess it depends on what genre you're in, and if you're only doing albums, but the basic theory is that releasing less tracks that are more polished will probably do better than just putting out everything you make because it will be easier to hold the attention of your fans that way
