Instead of moaning about some random sound issues on the stage, people should focus on recognizing how little it takes to make a song shift from good to great. It's amazing to see how simple and repetitive the arrangement is on this song, while the weird but extremely interesting chord progression and the great vocal performances on top make it shine. Obviously, the groove is simple yet effective too. It just goes to show: Focus on the important bits of your songwriting and bloody practice your performance to become a master. Thanks, Ski, for another inspiring deconstruction!

@PointBlankMusicSchool 6 жыл бұрын

We had some limitations at the venue and could only get the master output and not split mic/laptop. The phasing is from the stage monitors playing back the laptop audio, interfering with the microphone.

I've just realised that the crash that he played at 6:45 is the same as the crash in "Clint Eastwood" an alternate band that used the same set of drums in their 2 biggest songs. That's something you just don't see nowadays.

@robertocastrodelpozo7247 4 жыл бұрын

Really nice vids. Learn a lot from them. I get a little bit lost with Ableton and the arrangement view he always uses. A bit difficult to guess in what part of the song things go. It'll be easier for non-Ableton users if he so kind could use the other window where one could have a visual contest of what he is doing. But apart from that all good!!

Hi Saffron. This was at Sonar +D in Barcelona, so a convention of sorts. Ski does these kinds of deconstructions regularly though and there's quite a few on our channel. Try the recent ones on tracks by Massive Attack, 808 State and Calvin Harris for more of this kind of thing.

Um as far as music theory goes, the reason you can play a E major chord over an E minor bass riff, I think works because it's because it's blues, not because it was out of tune.
