+AeroDynamicDuck I'm late... But the answer to your question is chord progression. ALL pop songs use EXTREMELY simple chord progressions, which never exceed four different chords and are often one of four specific chords. Although, that's not a "set rule" for pop music, it's just the majority of people don't have the ear to pick out different parts and really appreciate it. Pop music isn't bad, it's just simple. Just as OVERWERK's not popular because his music is so complex, even compared to "pop" . (This is all just my theory, there might be other reasons xD) TL;DR OVERWERK is closer to Mozart than a pop musician... and you don't see Mozart being played on any pop radio station, do you? :)
This is a really good point- even just a quick google search brings the absurdly long Wikipedia list of pop songs (which is probably only a small selection) that use literally the same four chords in different orders. Not to mention, that great The Axis Of Awesome 4 chords mashup video. I really want to start learning music theory for all this. Understanding and appreciating more of what goes into these kind of tracks would be awesome.
+AeroDynamicDuck I have to say, being a musician and understanding music theory contributes a LOT towards being able to appreciate music. Even a basic understanding is better than having no idea what music theory even is. On an *almost* completely different tangent, a nice pair of headphones is also beneficial for picking out chords and such. :D I listened to music through bad speakers and earbuds for years before buying a nice set of headphones, and I can NEVER go back. I literally found probably 2-3 new parts I couldn't hear the first time I listened to one of my favorite OVERWERK songs (Control) which I had listened to hundreds of times with earbuds.
Exactly. I'm still noticing new details and sounds I never distinguished before in these familiar songs when listening on a range of different headphones, earbuds and speakers. OVERWERK is basically the music I use to test any sort of new/unfamiliar sounds equipment I come across. XD I've not yet invested in any sort of high-end monitoring type headphones or anything quite expensive yet, but I definitely plan to someday
Just out of curiosity, what are you using? I've got a nice set of Sennhesier HD 280s, and a USB audio interface I can use as a headphone amp if I feel like going to the trouble to make it work with... windows 10 >:( That's about it, I really don't have any other speakers or headphones :P
This. There's really no one on the same level as him in general, and this is probably his best track. Get goosebumps every time I listen to it, no joke.
Mawo Duffer Hey! I find that insulting. my English is perfect, there's not a tiny dent in the flow of words to say. Please explain why you have this quite readical view Sir! I will love to see your answer I am sure :). bat farst wee ned to tok abawt how retarted ppl ar!!!!!!!!!
I usually don't comment cause everyone else is saying what I'm thinking witch goes to show most of us all think alike and have the same taste but I will add this cause nothing and no one can compare or come close to OVERWERK his style and unreal groove is truly one of a kind and in my words I say that makes him the next GREAT COMPOSERS of all time in the 21st Century and should be inducted into the Hall ! Of Fame
I Listened to a lot of music in my life. This track is one of the most genius energy tracks which I´ve ever listned to. GOD-MODE! LOVE YOU, OVERWERK! You are blessed ...
I can’t believe this only has 200.000 views, the world needs to develop a better taste. This should have millions of plays! This guy is besides a great producer also an amazing composer! This is still just as good as the first I heard it, timeless music!
I'm legitimately baffled as to why OVERWERK is so obscure. His sound is so unique and detailed.

Overwerk never disappoints.
Almost six years later and this is still the greatest song I've ever heard - A masterpiece that will stand the test of time.
