      @@daybrink1267 Like the other guy said, perfect pitch is what allows him to do this. Technically speaking, anyone with perfect pitch would be able to do this. My ex has perfect pitch and seeing her do harmony homework was mindblowing to me (someone who doesnt). However, while I say technically anyone with it can, it's not actually true. You have to have some incredible mind that thinks in unthinkable harmony to do this.
      Basically, perfect pitch is his mental piano, his mind is the one figuring out these incredible things and playing them in his head (with his perfect pitch).

      Chancellor Kelly True, his innate sense of pitch and harmony helps a ton, but certain parts have to be meticulously handled. The most obvious example is his modulation from E to G half sharp. Making a change in tuning sound natural must be extremely difficult, but he pulled it off.

    In her maiden bliss,
    Worshipped the Beloved
    With a kiss.

My only point was that if one was to already have laid out the composition that it would be more a matter of 'changing shirts' and 're-recording' all the individual takes... There was nothing in my post criticizingnor belittling Jacob's genius, just that I firmly believe that the recording of the video could be considered rather 'fast' in comparison to actually composing it...

      There's something so accessible about his music, even though the harmony is virtually beyond comprehension. It's like a famous painting by a renowned artist: you may not understand all the techniques, colors, and nuances involved, but the picture is nevertheless understandable and deeply moving.

      Sunday evening, 14th of January 2018, 52 years, amateur musician. I have heard his carol just before X-Mas, wanted to get that feeling back. I discovered J.C. only last summer. Ever since I was startled and very soon began to see a new language in music arising. Now I am trying to get into it. Emotionally it is quite easy, means, the system works. But it will take me the rest of my life to sit on the piano or the guitar and play along his songs like I do with the Beatles, Pink Floyd or Sting. Ok. Yes showed me my limits. And EL&P have always been far beyond my reach. But I’d really love to get a bit closer to his musical language.

    After this being my number 1 thing that I listened to on Spotify in the year 2017, after watching the June Lee transcription hundreds of times, and after all the hours spend with my headphones on or sitting in my car doing nothing but absorbing the sheer beauty of this arrangement, I think I finally have some words to actually about this.
    Jacob, what you're doing is extraordinary. I chose this particular video to comment on because I think this is the finest thing you've done to this point, in my opinion. (Perhaps this is just one of your works that has struck me the most on an emotional level.) This is absolutely next level. The attention to detail is just absolutely unreal. And the microtonal Key change? Don't even get me started!! Sometimes I wonder why you are not a world wide sensation for what you're doing. However, that's the way the world works. But no matter what, just know that the music you make and what you are you choosing to do with your life is changing people's lives and inspiring them to do great things, just as you are doing. I can't wait to hear your latest works, and I hope I get to see you perform live and meet you one day.

Even professional musicians don't always have the vocabulary of the sound guy. They sometimes want an "effect" and don't know how it's made and they don't care. Every recording done in pop music these last years are probably pitch corrected. Autotune is an effect that can be robotic to pretty good (not in real time tho) depending on the result you want to achieve. Pitch correcting is just like adjusting that bass note this dumb bassist didn't do right. Not an effect

      Pretty much every modern singer and music producer use pitch shifting because the human voice isn't perfect. There may be moments where you're off by a couple of cents and it's muddying up the rest of the track. I think Jacob Collier uses it sparingly, but it doesn't matter because it's become such common practice for producers that it isn't noticeable unless you have REALLY good hearing.

    I can see images when I listen to music and this song gives me the most beautiful images out of nowhere and it's amazing. I've never felt such harmonic beauty before. It feels nostalgic even though I've never heard it before.

    If you liked Jacob's juicy microtonal harmonies, check out "Toward the Continuum" by Dolores Catherino. There's an unbelievably colorful world beyond the twelve tones.
