Tons of questions on recording the Shakhuachi! Zac has a really super directional headpiece talkback mic, and it provides incredibly clean audio for recording shakhuachi. You can hear how it works with the human voice in the outro gag - just compare how the audio on that sounds to the audio on the camera. I recorded that into a Zoom H6. So actually, no post-processing on the Shak was necessary! iZotope is wonderful, but not even needed in this case. I did do some pretty hardcore hi-pass filtering to the sound, however. The hardest one to record was actually the guitar, I miced his amp with an SM7-B, which is crazy directional, but you can still hear a fair amount of background noise (the drums in the background on that break at 8:13).
Adam Neely i loved this! honestly there was so much going on, plus the vibe mixed with the general ambience. plus the cool vid, i didn’t really pay attention to anything bleeding through. the song came out great! thanks :)
I like to get my geek on too, but the simple fact that it's a shakuhachi should be cool enough for anybody. No recording technology can ever make anything sound better than (or even like) it actually does. Different maybe, but not objectively better. Or maybe I have no idea what I'm talking about...BASS!
I like all this info on top of the challenge. People that think about themself that they suck at writing songs needs to understand that nothing comes easy, and the saying about writing 100 songs - that's absolutely something people should do more. Just don't care if it's weird and not perfect or not even good. "There will come some amazing things out of it!" Great track btw. :)
Two things 1) you look good with hair 2) why dont you upload that livestream back? I know you think the music's bad but I enjoyed watching it and maybe even learned from it a bit
I've never been this early. Might as well use this opportunity to present a question for your next Q&A: How smooth is your songwriting or composition workflow? I'm a VERY amateur musician and I find myself starting on a bunch of melodic ideas, then scrapping some of them because I don't think they work very well. I also try and associate musical ideas with some sort of real world imagery, like an overcast sky, or a computer lab, etc, and try to make the music speak of these settings. I'm trying to develop this way of writing and I'm interested in your thoughts on writing music in general and any obstructions or mental blocks you may have encountered. Thanks for making awesome content!
Adam, that was outstanding video, without pathos and anything superfluous and pathos. The song sounds like a mix of everything in the same time, but you can define the main string, that stenches trough. I like your channel and the way you do things, cause you got what most of other content creator don't - style. Keep it COOL
I remember some odd 15 years ago dream theater (always them) wrote some very vague descriptions of their songs structures on a sheet of paper in studio so they'd remember and organize stuff when writing together. Then they took pictures of these papers and released to us and made a challenge regarding what other fans-musicians would think it sounded like, before DT released the track. It was a blast, some pretty good songs came out of it.
Please never stop doing this Adam, the sheer joy I find in what you do with people you care for is astounding. I’ve always wanted to be a professional musician, but when I see what you do and the way you go about it inspires me to a whole new level of affection for the art. Thank you for putting so much time into the content we have come to love so dearly.
I love it. The mix sounds great, esp considering the sound sources. I'm particularly impressed with the clarity and fidelity of the lead flute track recorded in Time Square of all places! Incidentally, how did you work around the background noise in your field recordings? I'm guessing you did your best with a bit of editing and EQ, then hoped the rest would be buried in the mix, but I was wondering if you might have some insight into working with messy samples/recordings, or some special techniques for dealing the sort of challenges they provide. I'm also curious what make/model of handheld recorder you used for these purposes, and if you had any thoughts on what to look for when pricing/purchasing one and getting the most bang per buck. TIA
J John I scrolled far too much to find your comment! I thought the same thing, how did he get all the white noise out of the mix really amazed me. Hope Adam answers your question (:
Looks like Zoom h4m (it's pretty much the most popular handheld recorder as far as I know) It should be fairly cheap, but I live in Russia, so I can't tell you too much about prices
Low end sounded a bit mucky to me to be honest, but I love the song and I wouldn’t expect better quality under those conditions. Crazy how good the flute came out
this is by far the best 'writing a song in x minutes' video, that i've seen so far. i love how you took this worn out at this point idea and shaped it into a really fresh, interesting and compelling story. this made the final piece of music, that came out of it so much more special and appreciable. and my god if it didn't turned out to be a magical, exotic, eerily soothing and passionate experience for my ears.
How does that wooden flute recording sound so clean in the middle of Times Square? I can't even record in my own room because of the sound of the cars outside.
I honestly think that the best part of these Song Making challenges is that, i get to watch it, and as a learning Musician and Producer, these videos have been very significant in my practical learning, i don't have these instruments and many of the production tools you guys have, but i get to watch how you guys handle it, and then further learn from observation and then research. I think it's a very valuable challenge we have here and not just for the musicians themselves, but for the viewers too!
Thanks, Adam! Considering we all spend so much time overthinking composition and buying studio gear, that song and its recording process is just pure and beautiful art.
what you said was true, and very... cool, but i might add that a good portion of people who watch YT musicians are musicians themselves, i personally love seeing how people go about writing songs quickly so i can apply what works for me and note the common mistakes i see. nevertheless, thoughtful and entertaining as always, great video.
I liked your tune much better after watching this accompaniment. Well done 👍. And I love the idea that “the best way to do art is to reject success or failure and just get on with it”. Good stuff.
Hey Adam. Love your content. I'm not that in to making music anymore, but I still love learning about it. Funnily enough, i'm just trying to get a short story writing podcast off the ground with a very similar premise to these time challenge videos. My goal is to write a short story every week, and discuss with other amateur writers the process of writing it. This video gave me a lot of great insight into why I find the idea so interesting, and a lot of hope that I might actually find an audience for the show. It also helped me cope with some of the depression I've been feeling about the quality of my own work. I wouldn't say it inspired me, as much as it helped me be okay with not always being very inspired. Thanks Adam. Keep it up! Glen
“Dispense with success and failure altogether and just get on with it”. I agree. The editor mind and the inventor/improviser mind have to take turns. If the editor steps in the flow can evaporate. Flow first edit later. Spelling and handwriting in creator mind can be very ordinary yet the rhymes can be extraordinary.... Thanks for an enjoyable clip and a listenable tune.
This video was really amazing. It was surprisingly uplifting and insight full. You made some great points that really could spark some thought and what came out of it was extremely catchy and could almost be called soul-lifting
You have discovered a truly unique and amazing way to create beautiful music. I would very happily listen to this music regularly. This Channel is a window into a world of music and creativity that many people would never be exposed to. It is worth more than can be expressed and i thank you.
I just absolutely love this! Thanks for sharing your process. I’ve been a FAWMER since 2008 and I’ve found that having deadline and accountability are one of the number one inspirations for my continued song output. :)
Hahaha! "Jazz Cabbage" :P ...last time I heard that was when I lived in NOLA, from an octogenarian who would also liberally throw around the phrase "that's mighty white of you" as a form of expressing appreciation ...& had taken to calling the young black kids who annoyed him "moon crickets". The funniest part, he was black! :P
Some of the biggest songs in history have been written in 15 minutes or less but the difference is, they didn't set out to write a song in 15 minutes, it just happened. Moments of inspired genius just happen sometimes.
Just got around to seeing this, I really need to catch up. Definitely enjoyed this. Great work @adamneely. Great mix, and I truly enjoyed how you brought together different instruments from different genres. Really cool.
Simply, amazing. It may be me just tired tonight but it took a tear off my eyes. I don't care how long it took to compose/record/whatever. This is awesome. Thank you, sir.
QnA question here: What does the existence of people who can perfectly identify exact frequencies of heard tones (through absolute pitch) imply about the innate existence of the human brain’s ability to think in numerical systems? While this is somewhat outside the realm of this channel per se, I know you like to push the boundaries so I thought I’d ask. The debate is common in mathematical and scientific communities: are numbers and math innate parts of the universe or simply a human projection of order onto a universe which happens to follow rules that are well expressed by such systems? Could people with absolute pitch and the ability to identify exact frequencies change how we look at this question? Sorry this is so out there, but at the very least hopefully this is food for thought!
I don't think absolute pitch has any implications there, because it's a matter of how our brains produce perceptions. One of the key things our brains do is filter out unnecessary information. And through the way our inner ear is set up absolute pitch is what happens at that end of our auditory nerves, it just get's filtered as it comes in and that filter appears to be innate to most people. It's also limited to absolute pitch AFAIK - though it'd be interesting to note whether people with AP are also able to locate a position they have been touched at with greater precision (should be easy to set up by using some marker pens and measuring take). The math question probably also has a pretty mundane answer: Natural languages evolved to mediate simple transactions, mathematical systems are far broader in terms of what they can be used to express, hence for any given scientific theory it is more likely that it has an expression in some mathematical language than in natural language. That maths eliminates some of the ambiguities natural languages come with is an added bonus (note that mathematical languages have been developed both for the explicit purpose of expressing particular scientific theories - Newtonian mechanics needed calculus to be expressed, Population genetics needed the advances in Statistics made by Fisher - but also sometimes predate any theory they used them - Riemannian geometry was available to express Relativity for instance).
Hey Adam love the video and your channel is awesome! Here's a question for a q and a: You have explained on your channel how sound waves and physics relate to why the major sound is satifying and stable and why other sounds are dissonate. My question is does physics dictate how we harmonize the major scale (maj min min maj maj min min7b5) Is there anything "natural" about it, or did we just decide that's how to harmonize?
That was awesome you clipped all those music samples and smored them. You also have a concise, buttery smooth way with words describing the nuances of musical elements, like an interesting college professor.
This was great! I love your videos, you have the best insights on music that there is to find on youtube, the piece was amazing and the contributions from the artist were incredible, keep up the extraordinary work!
I make music myself and what you said about the creative process of art really struck a chord with me. I've been afraid to let myself make a bad song, but when you quoted Stephen Nachmanovitch it really did make me realise it doesn't matter if i every song i make is ''good'' or ''bad'', just that i make music and that i do something im proud of along the way

I make music myself and what you said about the creative process of art really struck a chord with me. I've been afraid to let myself make a bad song, but when you quoted Stephen Nachmanovitch it really did make me realise it doesn't matter if i every song i make is ''good'' or ''bad'', just that i make music and that i do something im proud of along the way
