British band GLASS ANIMALS are absolutely massive! At the time of writing this, they’re ranked 257 in the world on Spotify. Most artists as famous as them have achieved their success as a result of an obsessive striving for celebrity. However, Glass Animals seem to be obsessed with making catchy music instead. And not only that, their music is surprisingly creative for a band as successful as them.
If you’ve been doing our Hack Music Theory tutorials for a few years, you’ll know that we don’t usually cover “celebrity artists”. The reason for that is because (nowadays) there’s an inverse correlation between the success of an artist and the creativity of their music. For an artist to achieve a fanbase of tens of millions, their music needs to appeal to the masses. And most people (nowadays) want “sugary” ear-candy music that’s pleasantly predictable, i.e. boring, bland background music.
So why are we doing a tutorial on such a huge band? Well, Glass Animals’ new single “Creatures in Heaven” is a masterclass in catchy melody writing. The lead melody in their chorus has a whole bunch of creative hacks, as well as a very clever twist in its tale. So, inspired by “Creatures in Heaven”, here’s our 6-step method for writing a great melody that’s catchy enough for the masses. But first… Tea!

It's crazy how this channel is still making videos despite not quite appeasing the algorithm
Oh how I appreciate the existence of you two
pumpygt your here too??
I don't get it, I thought it would be a tutorial, what am I missing? I didn't see any links either
Oh I see the link, but that sucks it was a pdf step and not a video walk through ha
The PDF tutorials we're doing now are way more in-depth than those short and shallow TH-cam videos we used to do. They were fine for a quick idea or some inspiration, but these step-by-step PDF tutorials are way more helpful! This PDF is free anyways, so why don't you just download it and you can see for yourself :) hackmusictheory.com/album/2877864/catchy-melody
