Thank you so much for making this! My daughters and I are big fans of your music, and it's really cool to hear the thought and production behind your songs. P.S.- My daughters are both below 5 years old, and they think your name is Cookie Fries.
9:30 for my ears it's this kind of a "sus"-sound, so in this case i hear it as Bb7sus or in slash chord Ab6/Bb or Abmaj7/Bb which is also kind of a Fmin9/Bb :D I just love this Sus-sounds which often bring up kind of a gospel-feeling for me... anyway, really like your songs, keep going :-)
Also, it's kind of superimposing a II-V-progression to Ab, with the Bb7sus (or Bbm11)-sound - But since we don't hear the V (Eb7) or the I (Ab) it leaves us with this open and airy sound.
It's evident how much you love what you're doing and how much fun you're having putting your songs together, even without you song breakdowns. It's interesting hearing your reasoning behind your decisions, even if it is just "because I liked it"
This is awesome!! I absolutely love the way you write and having an inside look is so cool! I play piano and I've written. I tend to want to push what I "typically" might do or what sounds "normal" to try and discover "new" and exciting things with rhythm, key signatures, chord progressions, time signatures...etc. So I love hearing your music, and hearing the way you write is so inspiring! You're awesome!
Have you ever thought about doing this on a livestream on like twitch or something? That would be SICK. I would love to see you interact live with the community that loves you and your music!
Love this! And these kinds of tutorials! My take on why the bass worked to stay on the 4th was this: It individualized the players... meaning Bass says "You go back down and resolve to the 1, Imma stay up here on the 4 and setup the next bit". I second Andrew in the comments... was 5 seconds in and I'm like... He listens to Anomalie. Man what I would do to be a fly on the wall while your in the shed producing (not in a creepy way.)
Cody Fry when one of your heroes listens to one of his/her fans, digs the suggestion, and then actually follows through with it...how incredibly cool, i watched the Better breakdown before watching this one and see this must be where you got the idea! thank you for being such a stand-up human being, Cody! :)
Hi Cody, I just found you from Cory Wong's video. Your song sounds so refreshing to me ! Do you mind sharing the recording chain of your mic (sm7)? because I think it has a very low output so what did you use to boost the signal ? (some mic-pres?) thanks !
Thanks for sharing this. I love watching breakdowns by different artists and producers. There's always something to glean from them. Also, I totally felt that anomalie influence in this track. Love it, man!
The slow down button is commonly used on last Jacob Collier songs. Great to know you love Anomalie. He's a master keyboard guy but don't forget you're also awesome. Can't wait to hear what you've been cooking since your last album ;)
can u collab with day6? they really like ur music~ i can't give u the videos, cuz there's copyright hunters in twitter. we're gonna be suspended if we did it. if collaboration is too much, i just want u know bout that. thanks for making good music~
Super interesting Cody! Please do more like this! I would've loved to see the recording process as well. Especially demo bass and early keyboard parts :)
great vibe and groove! ever thought about giving out tutorials on string/brass/woodwinds writing tutorials? would love to see those.....Plus youre great at it. im sure theres like plenty of people that couldnt do those but can produce tracks w/ drums & keys & EGs and stuff
@@CodyFry Thank you for the reply! I really love your music and the way you’re bringing back orchestral arrangements in modern pop! I’m a 20 years old university student, I play piano and I’m adding strings parts for some songs I wrote. When I’m finished, I may send you the result on instagram, if you ever hear it, it will be a real honour. You’re such an inspiration! Thank you and please, never stop❤
Hi Cody! In love with your use of harmonic chromaticism and leading tones here, and that piano was something else! What would it take to be able to jump onstage during a show someday with a violin and add some sparkle? Probably just dreaming but I've played for 17 years and have yet to find another modern artist that gets me as excited for music again like you do 🙌🙌
It's hard to show the writing process since it's different from every session. The things to learn are the tools you use. But a 10-minute challenge would be cool to see. 😊

Bro, I love your stuff. A little late to the party, but I made it. :) what do you put on those clean guitars? D.I. With some compression?
First thing I thought on my first listen a while back is “Cody Fry must like Anomalie”... Lo and behold. Great track man, love the breakdown!
this guy work. is underrated

Lukas Ehebruster was about to comment this exactly haha
Yep, exactly

I KNEW you listened to Anomalie! Love his stuff. Sounds so good when you implement it in your music.
Have you ever thought about doing this on a livestream on like twitch or something? That would be SICK. I would love to see you interact live with the community that loves you and your music!
Love this kind of content so much
@@CodyFry Would love that, dude. And getting into the nitty gritty of using FX, compression, so on is freaking awesome
I actually have no idea what he‘s talking about, but it‘s fascinating and I love it 😅❤️
This was CRAZY educational! I LOVE this breakdown and love the song!
yoongi if you were to hear this song I will dedicate it to you
Wow. Dude I loved this song breakdown. So so cool to see the inner workings of the track. I'm a better musician from stuff like this!
Love this! And these kinds of tutorials! My take on why the bass worked to stay on the 4th was this: It individualized the players... meaning Bass says "You go back down and resolve to the 1, Imma stay up here on the 4 and setup the next bit".

Cody thank you very much for the explanation of your wonderful song 👍😎
I learned so much from this. Please do more Logic Breakdowns, Cody!
I love the direction that your music is moving towards! I get some Jacob Collier vibes but it's still really you. Keep it up!
Love this, would love a breakdown of Better
Cody Fry when one of your heroes listens to one of his/her fans, digs the suggestion, and then actually follows through with it...how incredibly cool, i watched the Better breakdown before watching this one and see this must be where you got the idea! thank you for being such a stand-up human being, Cody! :)

Thank you for this. Always cool to get inside the mind (and tools and tricks) of someone with your talents.
I've started my Journey first on Vulfpeck, proceeded to Cory Wong, then now I recognize Cody Fry at last. And turned out to be, you know, so good.
Cody, PLEASE breakdown "Underground." It's such an ethereal, unbelievable, out of this world song, man!
Thanks for sharing this. I love watching breakdowns by different artists and producers. There's always something to glean from them. Also, I totally felt that anomalie influence in this track. Love it, man!
Hey Cody, amazing song and great album. Love the vocal tone on it too, do you remember what mic you used?
The slow down button is commonly used on last Jacob Collier songs. Great to know you love Anomalie. He's a master keyboard guy but don't forget you're also awesome. Can't wait to hear what you've been cooking since your last album ;)
can u collab with day6? they really like ur music~ i can't give u the videos, cuz there's copyright hunters in twitter. we're gonna be suspended if we did it. if collaboration is too much, i just want u know bout that. thanks for making good music~
The first thing i thought of when i heard the song for the first time was that this is without a doubt Anomalie inspired, sick stuff!
Thanks for this. You are brilliant. Why did you do the stem edit in ProTools when you produced it in Logic?
BTW, I think you've got a Bbsus there
Super interesting Cody! Please do more like this!
I would've loved to see the recording process as well. Especially demo bass and early keyboard parts :)
Cody, can you explain why you work in Logic for arranging and pro tools for mixing?
it's EPIC, thanks for your sharing.
You are the best and talented musician i heard since 2020. Im classic trained and jazz trained.
Everything works cuz *JAZZzzz
Awesome! Love the tune and love the synth sound. Had been trying to get similar sound for days. Maybe this way I'll finally get it,
Thank you, cody! I really love your music & breakdown tutorial.
God dang I love your music. I am trying to make my own rn so learning from this is really cool : )
Demo magic is real. "You sound great, but I prefer this."
8:39 "maybe you think it's lame... but this is my song so I get to do what I want" :D true
Why Logic for demo and Protools for final recording?
this video is really really helpful. thanks a lot and love your music!
These vids are literally my life right now. Thank you Cody.
Inspiring, great breakdown video!
Absolutely loved the song and this behind-the-scenes look. Our fam has been grooving to this song daily since it was released :)
8:30 You mean jazzier (And that is a good thing)
Really dope Cody, appreciate this!!
This was awesome!!! Thank you cody :]
HOW IS THIS YOUR DEMO CODY!!!!!!!!!!
I love Naul, and I love Cody Fry
nice.nice nice
WOW!! Thank you~
Fm Over Bb will give it a Bbm9 vibe 9:20
This is HUGE!!!! Thanx for sharing all these process !! you are so kind and genius..
This is awesome! Exactly the direction I want to take my channel. I really enjoy Thinking About You. Thanks, Cody!
Can someone tell me why he worked on Logic and then moved to Pro Tools? Is one better for mixing? and the other for demos?
@@CodyFry Oh, got it! Thanks man!
I had such a strong feeling Anomalie was an inspiration. That is just awesome, man. Thanks for sharing your creative process.
Wow! Amazing! ❤️
Awesome job with this song!! When you moved from logic to Pro Tools, did you just bounce the instrument stems and finish in Pro Tools?
Good job bro👍
remix pack?!?!
great vibe and groove! ever thought about giving out tutorials on string/brass/woodwinds writing tutorials? would love to see those.....Plus youre great at it. im sure theres like plenty of people that couldnt do those but can produce tracks w/ drums & keys & EGs and stuff
I cover this music with a bass guitar. how you like that is love the song!!!!
Bro, you are so freakin good and I love that you take risks to make sounds that shouldn't work, work. Keep the amazing music coming!
thanks for the breakdown! I appreciate you showing all the plugins too, its cool to get plugin referrals cuz when it comes to that, I'm lost XP
BREAKDOWN ALL THE THINGS. Love this series
Hey I love your song entitled 'stop breathing'! Will listen to some more of your songs. Thanks !
This was awesome man! Awesome to see such knowledge within multiple daws. Song on repeat.
Your harmonic ideas are so inspiring man it’s ridiculous! Keep up all the good work and I can’t wait to hear more stuff!
Dude this song is my summer soundtrack. Keeps my life funky when I'm in a funk ya know?
So excited to watch this! This is my favorite track! Thank you Cory!
I feel like god lookin down on my creation approvingly as you “interior chromatic motion” audio
Came to look at a project file.Stayed for a production lesson.
Love love love
These sorts of breakdowns are pretty inspiring to people just starting off producing music - thank you man! x
Please I need to know to what synth you added the wah effect and if the Prophet is downloadable somewhere🙏
Arturia Prophet! Effect accomplished with the synth’s envelope filter
@@CodyFry Thank you for the reply! I really love your music and the way you’re bringing back orchestral arrangements in modern pop!

Wow! This is so cool. Thanks for breaking this down man.
2:40 great explanation, having intention always brings out the best music
Holy crap that's a lot of tracks. Thanks for taking us through this, it was really cool!
Dude, love this! Thanks so much!
Most underrated guy i know. He is a genius
This is wonderful you’re my hero
That altar boi plugin is dope

Probably just dreaming but I've played for 17 years and have yet to find another modern artist that gets me as excited for music again like you do 🙌🙌
I think he should hire you 🙏😊
that Video make me love you more
You need to do a make a song in 10 minutes challenge kind of thing so we can see how you work from scratch
It's hard to show the writing process since it's different from every session. The things to learn are the tools you use. But a 10-minute challenge would be cool to see. 😊
I LOVE UR MUSIC
