I will say as a gay man who always fell for straight men, Tyler is fully correct. It's a painful painful cycle. It is sometimes better to walk away to prevent more pain
I feel you man im going though it right now but you dont even have to be gay to feel this. Just being madly in love with someone knowing it wont work out or wont happen just hurts and instead of ruining a friendship you keep it to yourself and let it all build up as pressure

It’s even deeper than this. The 6th track (roughly the middle of the album) “new magic wand” is in the key of F (Phrygian but whatever). If we treat the Eb in the beginning of the album as the tonic resolution, the album creates a ii-V-I (i) progression, one of the most common chord progressions. This could indicate that the IGOR cycle repeating itself was inevitable even towards the beginning
Pink Floyd did this for their 1979 THE WALL album. It ends with "Isn't this where-" on the last song and then when you listen to the album again it begins with "we came in?" creating a perfect loop and spreading the message of the wall never ending.
The wall and the dark side of the moon has the same never ending loop with the heart beat at the end and start of the dark side of the moon and isn’t this where- we came in with the wall from the trial to in the flesh? It’s just so genius
King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard have an album called Nonagon Infinity that can be played on an endless loop. They have motifs and riffs that show up in multiple songs and the last song blends perfectly back into the first. If you’re unfamiliar with them but you like Pink Floyd, give ‘em a listen! They’re all over the place, having done thrash metal, psych rock, garage rock, acoustic jazz (kinda), prog, microtonal music, and a whole lot more. Each album is a totally different experience. But since we’re talking about looping albums, check out Nonagon Infinity. It’s heavily inspired by early metal groups like Black Sabbath. It’s not too heavy, the vocals are very melodic, and it has a nice psychedelic vibe to it.
Awesome! Theres also an intentional loop in Pink Floyds The Wall. The Ending and Beginning flow seamlessly into each other. And if you listen to it closely and loud enough you hear a voice say: "Isn't this where -- we came in?" With the sentence split in half by the transition.
@@5spec no Japanese people don’t like to interact with people or randoms. It’s not normal and In Japanese society It improper to not act normal. He did it to people too don’t show one side. On your same narrative black people are dragged down too much in America. Stop the hate. Just like “Asian hate”. I’m Native American so a person of color and see your point but tell the whole story.
The loop is even crazier cause at the end of the song (are we still friends) it starts to die down, then at the beginning it’s full volume restarted. It’s like Tyler’s horniness is ramped up once more.
This album is an absolute masterpiece- I can listen to the entire album right through & then over again, it’s so fluid & has great flow, storytelling, soundscapes, & lyrics

Similar story with Pink Floyd's "the wall". The album starts and ends with the same piece of music, and the last song ends with the words "isn't this where-", while the first song begins with the words "-we came in?"
Also with Dream Theater’s Octavarium. If i remember correctly, the first song starts on an F, and their are eight songs going up a whole step each time, ending on the final song landing back on the F
@@elektrik-fz4up Wow didn't know there was a sizeable crossover of people who were both Dream Theater and Tyler fans but judging by your upvotes there's more of us than I thought
love that on top of being an amazing album theres little things like this that isnt necessary and that a lot of people overlook but still help bring it all together
Lemon demon's spirit phone kinda some something similar. The album is about spooky otherworldly occult occurrences, beginning the album with the word die in lifetime achievement award, and ending with the word life in spiral of ants.
From the seasons of Dissect I've listened to, a loop or infinity seems to be a common theme. DAMN, Because the Internet, and Blonde are the ones that come to mind
Mac’s album Circles does the same thing with the musically inconclusive ending, that connects right back the very beginning hence going in circles with the drug problems he struggles with, it also connects to his previous album(Swimming) put them together and its Swimming in Circles:))

@@HatredInTheFlesh nah he’s actually bi. The whole album is about him falling love with a guy. Flower Boy was literally about him being himself and coming out. These are his words btw.

That's so cool, how at the initial first listen of the album it ends off as if it's a good ending with Igor coming to terms with his love life too. But in the end it's revealed to be much worse where it has been and will continue to be a cycle of toxicity and not just a failed love story
@@dmetriusmarch nah it was flower boy but only some songs. i didn’t really really get into him until igor came out but i have listened to his songs before igor.
I just wanna say, this channel is nonstop bangers. I have so much more appreciation for music I had never listened to before, and my Spotify playlist gets longer by the day. Thank you for that.
Some songs I HIGHLY recommend: Dance with the devil - Immortal technique All your fault - Big Sean 1985 - Freddie Gibbs You never know - Immortal technique Soul Food II - Logic The spins - Mac Miller These are pretty underrated songs that are just so good… lmk what you think
Theres definitely more to it. There are so many patterns of synths that i found myself playing this album in shuffle and it was felt like each song connnected to the next one. No matter how it was shuffled. The transitons at the end of each track as well as the start of each track are so flawless. So many permutations of how this album can be played. Thats why its great. When you can shuffle the album any which way and it still sound good, you know its great
"IGOR is a perfect musical loop" *Dark Side of the Moon having the same heartbeat at the beginning and end and only having one or two times the songs don't flow between each other*
The album stops at the song The Great Gig in the Sky because it’s the last song on the first side of the album. It must stop because you physically have to flip the album to continue. (Nevermind the profile pic)
Bb is the fourth of F major so technically it ends on a IV chord which means this ends in a conclusive plagal cadence and not an inconclusive half cadence.
My favorite example of this is Donuts by J Dilla, one of the best instrumental hip hop albums ever. he produced it while on his death bed so the idea of the album looping forever is really beautiful to me, it's like he poured his soul into the beats and lived forever through them.
I don't understand what you mean by "expect that one never stops"? How does this one stop? Or how does any "loop" stop? That's the point of a loop, is it continuously goes on forever..
@@johnbaca80 Tyler each song is cut off differently, except for the last and first track, while nonagon infinity the track continues from track one to track nine seamlessly, hence why it's called nonagon infinity (nonagon means 9 sided polygon)
Spirit Phone by Lemon Demon does the exact same thing! Spiral of Ants (closing track) is about an ant spiral, where an ant colony indefinitely walk in a spiral following the ant in front of them, just an infinite loop, and the song ends with static noise. the intro (Lifetime Achievement Award, which is about exploiting dead people for profit and literally reviving them) also starts with the noise.
I would never of picked that up I always know it ended on a imperfect cadence I just never realised it could be resolved with Igors theme Tyler’s musical prowess knows no bounds
OMG, I love you. I feel like listening to full albums is a lost musical fan practice. But you're absolutely right that I always am left unresolved, despite how much that final track always makes me sing from my soul. I'm going to loop it today. Thank you. You just set the mood for the entire Tuesday. 💜💜💜
One of my favorite albums is a musical loop, but not a narrative loop. Still, it's an incredible work of art. I'm talking about "Fantastic Planet" by Failure.
Wow! Less than a minute into the album and I was already digging it. And then I got to Segue 1 and damn. It’s very 90’s grunge but a super unique take on the genre. Thanks for mentioning it! Ever listen to King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard? They’re a more current group that has a looping album called Nonagon Infinity that I would strongly recommend.
I had no idea that tyler was even interested in men until a couple weeks ago. Cool that being attracted to the same sex is becoming not that big of a deal anymore
the fact that someone is gay literally doesn’t matter anymore. case in point: lil nas x. bro didn’t come out the closet, bro blew the closet wide the fuck open. and now he’s richer than a lot of modern rappers so no, being gay doesn’t matter anymore. at this point, it’s better to be gay than straight
This even fits in the themes of call me if you get lost when he said that the girl that he fell in love with was just another book of lovers which plays in to the theme of Tyler running in circles and never being able to find the perfect relationship
so idk but i was wondering so here you go. IGOR album in order: 1. IGOR’S THEME 2. EARFQUAKE 3. I THINK 4. EXACTLY WHAT YOU RUN FROM YOU END UP CHASING 5. RUNNING OUT OF TIME 6. NEW MAGIC WAND 7. A BOY IS A GUN* 8. PUPPET 9. WHAT’S GOOD 10. GONE, GONE / THANK YOU 11. I DON’T LOVE YOU ANYMORE 12. ARE WE STILL FRIENDS? please correct me if i’m wrong😓🙏
Having this theory hit me like a ton of bricks, I cant believe I never thought about the cylical nature of it. Especially after going through something similar when the album itself dropped. I didn't learn my lesson after listening. Now I know 😑
I’ve noticed this on a couple Mac albums. Circles in particular. I’m not sure how much final production he was involved in since it was released after his death, but that final song leaves you feeling like it’s missing something until you hear the first track follow it like a circle. RIP to a genius
If I had to guess it was probably a concept that Jon Bryon, the producer Mac was working with on the album, had talked about with him before he died then put into the album while he was putting finishing touches on it.
The audacity to not even play the loop together

Absolutely incredible analysis in such a short time
This video makes me not resist the short format as much
This made me look at igor in a WHOLE new way
Some songs I HIGHLY recommend:
Dance with the devil - Immortal technique
All your fault - Big Sean
1985 - Freddie Gibbs
You never know - Immortal technique
Soul Food II - Logic
The spins - Mac Miller
These are pretty underrated songs that are just so good… lmk what you think
igor is one of my favorite albums of all time, and I genuinely love when Tyler connects his songs, it makes the entire album a whole experience.
Tyler is a musical genius
The short is a perfect loop as well. I been making music for 20 years and these little nuance's are perfect artistic touches
🤣 it isn’t a perfect loop and a lot of short lakers does this and zero in any creative way.
@@blowc1612 uh ok? its still cool tho
@@zenox3960 if your standard is terrible
Theres definitely more to it. There are so many patterns of synths that i found myself playing this album in shuffle and it was felt like each song connnected to the next one. No matter how it was shuffled. The transitons at the end of each track as well as the start of each track are so flawless. So many permutations of how this album can be played. Thats why its great. When you can shuffle the album any which way and it still sound good, you know its great
Deserved that grammy
That ending was fire lmao caught me off guard. I like how you did that lol
This video and Tyler’s album is genius.
Also in the album, the protagonist basically goes through the stages of grief; denial, bargaining, anger, depression and acceptance.
I love this album more than anything on this world bro. It’s what made me a huge Tyler the creator fan
the ending of “are we still friends” leading into “igor’s theme” has the same effect as the transition in frank ocean’s “nights”
"IGOR is a perfect musical loop"
*Dark Side of the Moon having the same heartbeat at the beginning and end and only having one or two times the songs don't flow between each other*
Both, both is good
This is about Igor though
Same with The Wall. The loop indicates that the wall is never ending.
igoe better tho
The album stops at the song The Great Gig in the Sky because it’s the last song on the first side of the album. It must stop because you physically have to flip the album to continue. (Nevermind the profile pic)
Perfect 10/10 album
Bb is the fourth of F major so technically it ends on a IV chord which means this ends in a conclusive plagal cadence and not an inconclusive half cadence.
My favorite example of this is Donuts by J Dilla, one of the best instrumental hip hop albums ever. he produced it while on his death bed so the idea of the album looping forever is really beautiful to me, it's like he poured his soul into the beats and lived forever through them.
Nonagon Infinity as well. Except that one never stops. It’s one continuous album length epic, that loops forever.
I don't understand what you mean by "expect that one never stops"? How does this one stop? Or how does any "loop" stop? That's the point of a loop, is it continuously goes on forever..
@@johnbaca80 it means that it applies to each individual song in the album too
@@johnbaca80 Tyler each song is cut off differently, except for the last and first track, while nonagon infinity the track continues from track one to track nine seamlessly, hence why it's called nonagon infinity (nonagon means 9 sided polygon)
Spirit Phone by Lemon Demon does the exact same thing! Spiral of Ants (closing track) is about an ant spiral, where an ant colony indefinitely walk in a spiral following the ant in front of them, just an infinite loop, and the song ends with static noise. the intro (Lifetime Achievement Award, which is about exploiting dead people for profit and literally reviving them) also starts with the noise.
I was just about to comment the same thing!!! 😂
i started listening to tyler the creator from my twin and my life has never been the same (in a good way)
Cole, you cheeky cheek....... i love these. pls do a million more.
Tyler is just amazing, there's no other explanation
I would never of picked that up I always know it ended on a imperfect cadence I just never realised it could be resolved with Igors theme Tyler’s musical prowess knows no bounds
OMG, I love you. I feel like listening to full albums is a lost musical fan practice. But you're absolutely right that I always am left unresolved, despite how much that final track always makes me sing from my soul. I'm going to loop it today. Thank you. You just set the mood for the entire Tuesday. 💜💜💜
idk i try to listen to 1 full album a day
One of my favorite albums is a musical loop, but not a narrative loop. Still, it's an incredible work of art. I'm talking about "Fantastic Planet" by Failure.
Kids dont even know what theyre missing!
Wow! Less than a minute into the album and I was already digging it. And then I got to Segue 1 and damn. It’s very 90’s grunge but a super unique take on the genre. Thanks for mentioning it!
Ever listen to King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard? They’re a more current group that has a looping album called Nonagon Infinity that I would strongly recommend.
don't mind me, just placing a ward to come seek these bands later
@@finonevado8891 in case you need a notification to bring you back to the thread later, this is a response.
YESSSS I love Failure!
Kanye did this with 808 and heartbreak and the heart “beat” in “Say You Will” is featured throughout the album.
2 words MIND BLOWN
the way he made it a loop and now i cant stop watching 😭😭
I had no idea that tyler was even interested in men until a couple weeks ago. Cool that being attracted to the same sex is becoming not that big of a deal anymore
Especially in the hip-hop scene!
Didn‘t Tyler mock his friend Frank Ocean for being gay? Maybe he was just projecting. You never know with Tyler.
@@InfernoCA I think he was joking.
the fact that someone is gay literally doesn’t matter anymore. case in point: lil nas x. bro didn’t come out the closet, bro blew the closet wide the fuck open. and now he’s richer than a lot of modern rappers so no, being gay doesn’t matter anymore. at this point, it’s better to be gay than straight
@@nahmirbriefs6968not really... Homophobia is still a big deal
This even fits in the themes of call me if you get lost when he said that the girl that he fell in love with was just another book of lovers which plays in to the theme of Tyler running in circles and never being able to find the perfect relationship
so idk but i was wondering so here you go. IGOR album in order:
1. IGOR’S THEME
2. EARFQUAKE
3. I THINK
4. EXACTLY WHAT YOU RUN FROM YOU END UP CHASING
5. RUNNING OUT OF TIME
6. NEW MAGIC WAND
7. A BOY IS A GUN*
8. PUPPET
9. WHAT’S GOOD
10. GONE, GONE / THANK YOU
11. I DON’T LOVE YOU ANYMORE
12. ARE WE STILL FRIENDS?
please correct me if i’m wrong😓🙏
A boy is a gun video perfectly explains the loop
One of the best TH-cam shorts I’ve seen
I see what you did at the end. His album is an infinite loop just like your explanation on this video
This man is such a musical genius, the goat 🐐🔥
6 SECOND CROSS FADE NEEDS TO BE ENABLED IN SPOTIFY’S PLAYBACK SETTING TAB
Having this theory hit me like a ton of bricks, I cant believe I never thought about the cylical nature of it. Especially after going through something similar when the album itself dropped. I didn't learn my lesson after listening. Now I know 😑
LESSGO
edit(the mac miller album is a loop too)
Wait a minute, Tyler gay???🤨🙆🏾♂️
He is bi
I'm putting a pause on his music forever
@@bewiseopeneyes2285 shut up nerd
@@bewiseopeneyes2285doooont care
@@bewiseopeneyes2285”I love this artist! Oh wait he’s gay? Nvm his music sucks I never liked it” man shut up learn to respect people
You fuckin cooked. But damn not including the loop was rough my dawg
Ahh i see what you did there
Still one of the most under appreciated artists
That one unemployed friend on Tuesday evening:
ive recently started getting into his music and the more i learn the more i know how much of a pure genius he is
Very reminiscent of how Dream Theater would end an album, and start the next with the exact same note as the previous one ended on. Very cool!
I love Dream Theater!!!!
Tyler is a musical genius, And you are a genius for the explanation and that perfect loop.
I’ve noticed this on a couple Mac albums. Circles in particular. I’m not sure how much final production he was involved in since it was released after his death, but that final song leaves you feeling like it’s missing something until you hear the first track follow it like a circle. RIP to a genius
If I had to guess it was probably a concept that Jon Bryon, the producer Mac was working with on the album, had talked about with him before he died then put into the album while he was putting finishing touches on it.
oh my god thats genius story telling
this is something called secondary dominance. one of my favorite musical techniques
Like a power bottom?
@@bornanagaming3329 PLEASE I CRIEDDD
And that’s how..another igor loop
POV: this is the 20th time you seen this
But like... imagine BEING tyler like his mind must be running 24/7 like hes so interesting and inspiring I wish i was him
