Enjoy this amazing Michael Jackson song and all the goodies found in the full, multitrack session with Fil from Wings of Pegasus and myself!
This session is packed with un-comped and alternate vocals, tons of synths, drum parts and layers that make it super fun to solo things out and experience the song in new ways. In this video, we cover mainly the vocals (because there are just so many things to explore with MJs voice alone).
So be sure to check out the session for yourself and dig into the other aspects of this timeless, amazing arrangement!

The first time Michael listened to the complete Thriller album he cried because he thought it sounded horrible. The record company had been applying pressure for him to get it out by a certain date and everything became too rushed, the end product was messy. Michael ended up putting his foot down like he knew how, and they went back in the studio and remixed everything until it became the prized piece of history it is.

He was a true perfectionist .. never happy! After the Motown performance he was crying cuz his toe stand wasn't as long as he wanted!!! AMAZING performer!!❣❣

Yes, they took a day off and came back and mixed it one song per day. The problem was that Billie Jean was originally too long, making the grooves on the record thinner, which affects the playback sound. By making the runtime shorter, the grooves got wider and this improved the bass sound.

Human Nature is my favorite song in the entire world and since I was a young girl I've always wanted to hear the instrumental and acapella of this song. But to know there are multitracks of this song just sets my soul on fire. I really hope you can make a part two where you take a deep dive into the different instrumentation of Human Nature. You don't know how much I appreciate this video. I love this song so much and would love to hear more if possible. ❤❤❤❤

Chris love your work! Great niche that I really am happy I stumbled upon. I’m a music producer but often want to make vocal parts for my compositions in the voice of a type of singer. I want to be able to compile a list of singers vocal attributes and mix and match them, like The gravelly texture to a gospel singer but the sound and pronunciations of Yuki Nagano. I want to know how to study voices, what makes them how they are, create profiles on them, and then use them as basis to be inspired & even create fusion. for certain songs. Is this something you teach? Your Thom Yorke video was so impressive but I wouldn’t know how to think of the witch for a good reference. That knowledge you have was excellent man I’d love to learn how to do that!

I know nothing about the technical aspects of music but since I was a kid, I have always listened to MJ with headphones/earphones because I love the nuances to his voice, the music, everything. I love the details and these types of videos open it all up so we can see how he wrote music using his unique vocal abilities, how he arranged music, and then how it all comes together. This is like Christmas for me! Thank you so much for doing these videos!

@Miloo-qj7sc 4 ай бұрын

I don't know anything about music theory, but for some reason, you can hear Michael Jackson's unique vocal abilities, how his voice shifts, how he breathed out the words as he sang, his high and bright voice self-harmony,' 'self-backing vocals,' 'self-dubbing,' or 'self-overdubbing.' It is the process of adding multiple layers of one's own voice

Michael Jackson Is Thee Greatest Singer Of All Time! Btw I’d rather you do these sessions alone simply cause this is our first time hearing these Multitrack’s and others may not be as well versed into MJ’s amazing/unmatched incomparable vocal ability & discography as you are😇🙌🏽👑💖🔥💫(I love “Human Nature” cause the song is so spacey and In retrospect, it can be viewed as a sad song, however: The anticipation that MJ sings about with such relish - of breaking out, hitting the streets, connecting with strangers - was a pleasure that was denied from him during his childhood/lifetime,in large degree because of the unprecedented fame and fanfare generated by the success of Thriller.)

Something I really love about Michael's use of his vocals is simply that he really tends to use them as an instrument and not just sing lines. Like what you guys mentioned with almost adding to the percussion and such. He doesn't stick to the lines of singing. He rather tends to explore what vocals can do and then use that to his advantage in the song. His vocals aren't just vocals in a song. His vocals itsself are simply an actual instrument to the song. The way he approaches making music this way is something I've rarely ever seen. Freddie Mercury seems to do it similarly, but in his own way of course. You can learn so much from listening to these types of tracks or seeing their process of making songs. I love it

Those aren't actually the real drums and bass tracks. It's from a rework I made a few years back because someone requested it (there was no session available with drums and bass separated at the time). I posted it on Reddit for people to play with, few days later it was all over the internet, without the information that it is not real. I actually recognize my own file naming system in the tracks haha :). A few months later a session with the real original drums and bass leaked out. You can probably find that one as well. Ah well, the vocal takes are the real gems here, and those are real for sure! Haha. Enjoyed the video, and funny to see my own tracks back in your daw!

The availability of these original, digital studio multi-tracks from Michael Jackson's extensive oeuvre has inspired countless aspiring audio mavens to take a stab at remixing the songs and posting them to KZfaq. Having provided us a glimpse of the process, I thought you, Fil at Wings of Pegasus & the viewers of this segment might like to hear this exceptional remix of "Human Nature" created by Quality Mixes, a very talented young man from Atlanta, GA. It's hard to improve on perfection, but IMHO Quality Mixes has done it with his lovingly crafted version of "Human Nature." kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qN50hdx4v9Sxf40.html
