    Not just basslines, but whole arrangements is what makes ABBA great. They really know how to write a memorable song. And then repeat that about a bajillion times without ever becoming repetitive or tiring. Truly legends IMHO!

    • @thomashartwell4335
      @thomashartwell4335 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      A lot of this is due to the close working relationship composers Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus have with their arranger, Anders Eljas. From what I can recall, during their work on ABBA and writing the musical Chess neither Andersson/Ulvaeus could read or notate music, but were very talented musicians that had a very clear idea of what they *wanted* from the sound of the arrangements. So from their composition and creating demos they were able to effectively communicate the sound of the song to Eljas, who in turn would notate the song out and create the parts for additional instruments (eventually a full orchestra for Chess).
      Honestly the entire career of Andersson/Ulvaeus is fascinating. After ABBA ended they co-wrote Chess with Tim Rice, which is infamous for its problems on stage but was huge as an initial album, and then retreated to their homeland to write Kristina fran Duvemala, a complex three hour opera that blends classical, traditional scandinavian folk, and that ABBA rock sound, before founding Benny Andersson's Orkester, a Swedish supergroup of sorts that again blends traditional folk and ABBA-style pop with a whole slew of instrumentalists and singers. It's a long and endlessly delightful history of musical invention and canny, catchy songwriting.

      @@strawberryavalunch yeah I agree. It's like it gets you both used to making things that are bad, but also it gets you used to actually FINISHING something. I struggle with this do much. I've been playing music for over a decade and I still never finish my songs and I think I need to actually start intentionally writing bad songs just so I can get used to it and not take it so poorly, cuz I end up not finishing anything because of that perfectionism. I have this energizing rush when I start a new song, but start to lose it once I start to worry about the finished piece, and I basically psych myself out and stop working on it in favor of starting yet another song. I have hundreds of unfinished songs

    10:50 "What can you do about feeling inferior to others?"
    That reminds me of a comic a saw. A chef baked a cake, and he saw another chef's cake, and he thought to himself, "Aw dang, that guy's cake is so much better than mine. What am I going to do? Why would anyone want my cake?"
    Then there's a customer, and he's thinking to himself, "Oh boy, two cakes!"

    Just to throw in another opinion about the social change question. I think art stuff makes people less cranky so they can think a little clearer and make better decisions. But, nonetheless, we live in a time with amazing music in abundance and people are still pretty dang cranky.

      Yeah most people prefer listening to endlessly recycled rap and pop music that's been distilled to the point where it just feels like ambient noise with no distinguishing features. I find that people who listen to more unusual music tend to be lesser dicks on average, unless they're only doing it so they can feel superior to other people.

      @denamit89 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think it's the curse and blessing of the internet aswell, really. People have the opportunity to reach an audience via platforms like TH-cam or Soundcloud, but who, in this day and age, has the time to dig so deep and really look for those lesser known, upcoming musicians when it is much easier (also thanks to the internet) to just listen to computer-generated recommendations, suited to your taste like the Discover Weekly-feature by Spotify? I think this is the problem with the abundance you mentioned. People are easily overwhelmed when met with whatever thing when there is an abundance of it. They tend to just go like "fine, whatever, just give me something, I don't wanna browse through all of this" and rarely browse through other playlists or just randomly click at stuff.

  • @Martykun36
    @Martykun36 6 ปีที่แล้ว +29

    11:53 This question resonates with me quite a bit. In Chile and probably the rest of South America the persecution of musicians in our past dictatorships is still fresh in the collective mind. They were seen as a threat towards the state, and there's now still a generalized feeling that songs bring Change.
    While I agree that they aren't the catalysts, songs _do_ help to consolidate the feelings of discontent in the general public, and some serve as hymns for the groups of people that are fighting against a cause.

    • @Ildskalli
      @Ildskalli 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yep, as a Chilean myself, I can think of quite a few examples of music that had a measurable social impact, but it's always in the lyrics. For a jazz musician, and especially someone as intellectual as Adam, it's something that they'd probably love to do with the harmony and melody themselves, and that's why they might be skeptic.
      Quite honestly, Violeta Parra, Víctor Jara, or even Tiro de Gracia (for a more contemporary example) didn't bring anything to the table that was revolutionary - it's always been their lives and lyrics that moved people.

    • @ssatva
      @ssatva 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nicely put!
      My sense of it is that music can be used by social change actors, so making a contribution for musicians would be to tap into the feelings, the needs and dreams the social change actors are fighting for. Then the music can help spread the ideas and ideals, and act as a rallying cry, political statement in context, and as a soundtrack for the work of it.

    • @frodehau
      @frodehau 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, music can be a powerful vehicle for ideas and feelings. But it can be difficult or even dangerous to be the front figure in a movement. Bob Dylan famously tried to avoid being the front figure people wanted him to be, John Lennon on the other hand seemed to love the attention. And we all know how that turned out. But I'm sad to say that the death of Chilean musicians seldom make it to the world news.

    I know it's a joke, but "don't write bad music" is terrible advice that some beginners might take seriously. Sitting down and giving yourself a permission to write garbage is a great way to get at least something written. You'll paint yourself in a corner if you think you'll write a masterpiece every single time.

    In Czech Republic, the phrase used to play quintuplets is "půllitr piva" (půl-li-tr-pi-va), which literally means "half a litre of beer". Yup. We Czechs love our beer. It's everywhere.

      In Russia I heard an advice of subdividing odd time signatures into 2 and 3... which is basically the way it is. But you say "pivo" (beer) for 2 "and "vodochka" ("my dear vodka") for 3. So a quintuplet would be "pivo vodochka". And you could go further with "pi-vo pi-vo vo-do-chka" for ⅞, etc. We slavs all love our alcohol, I guess. xD

    Question for the next Q&A: I want to combine a sampler/groovebox with live elements to perform on stage. You have experience with a lot of live gigs, what kinds of synthesizers, drum computers, samplers, grooveboxes or other electronic gear have you seen work well in a live setting? Do other musicians frown upon samplers or drum machines on stage? Do you see crossovers happening between live electronic productions and traditional band gigs? Also congratulations on growing hair.

    On the modular synth thing: VCV rack is free (some modules cost extra, but you can spand ages just exploring the freebies). And of course Reaktor is another option if you want to explore sound (I started with some eurorack modules bach when it was just the A-100 system and Doepfer was the only actual manufacturer. When I went to college I sold it due to space constraints and got Reaktor soon after that).

      Yeah I feel that. I also don't know why audioslave doesn't get any love. I love rage but something about Chris cornell has always been my jam. I mean audioslave was definitely more pop leaning, but in the early 2000s they were basically the only good rock band on the radio for the most part and because of that I think they got a tiny bit of overexposure, but to this day I don't really see people bring them up and I have no clue why. I do wish they were more political like rage was, but they still did do some of the political stuff they still continued to do as audioslave like having local activist groups at shows to sign people up for getting active in their community and such.

      But djent is not a genre. It's a technique, a musical aesthetic. Like shredding. Any kind of metal that has shredding can be called Shred Metal but it's not a genre.
      And the Internet didn't create djent, Meshuggah did. The internet just made a meme out of it.

    • @guitarmichael
      @guitarmichael 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ErebosGR If I have my facts straight, the term for the technique originated with Meshuggah, but an online metal forum (which Misha Mansoor was a member of) used the term to put a name to their style of metal. So a lot of the Meshuggah inspired bands that followed were known as djent bands. So the Internet turned the technique into a "genre."

    @cheesoup 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Question for Q&A: From my own studies in visual art school and from the couple things I've read/watched on music theory over the years, I've noticed an multiple uncanny similarities between artistic concepts within all realms of creativity. I guess an example off the top of my head would the rise of twelve tone composition at the same time as Italian Futurist movement.
    What I would like to ask is do you think all human creativity (no matter the field) is bred within the bubble created by the combination of humanities inherent habit to make sense of things/systematize what we perceive and the stories/experiences one anecdotally or personally know (ie the stories which shape our basic understand of how reality works such as how to pee in a toilet, how to pay for food, etc)? If so, do you think by that logic, human creativity in any field is applicable to any other field of creativity, it's simply a matter of understanding the benefits of the medium to what you want to communicate (I guess kinda like Marshall McLuhan's "The Medium is the Message")? If creativity is simply one’s ability to express by bringing order to chaos, does that mean being creative in one thing makes one automatically creative in another thing should one learn the rules behind the medium?
    Also, are there any readings good readings on music theory and it's relationship to semiotics/abstraction?

    Since you mentioned that Bill Evans is your current jazz album, and he’s a bottomless well of inspiration. His record with Jim Hall, “Intermodulations” is sublime.

      I still don't get the joke, nor Neely's... was it a joke? I mean, I like Les, but I'm fine with people disagreeing with me... Is there a reason not to like Les? Or is there a reason to claim to not like him while actually liking him? :S

    2:40 Adam, there's a simpler rhythm already existing for 5 - "Da Di Gi Na Dum". So you could use "ta ka" and "ta ki ta" to help yourself put emphasis on certain subdivisions, but there's an alternative that might be easier 😁😁
