Albums tell the story of an artist or group at a specific moment in time that one or two singles cannot. Think of a recent album you really enjoyed listening to. Would it have been as impactful released as a slew of singles over the course of a year? Probably not. When it comes time to release your long-form music project, one thing that definitely needs to be considered is its sequencing-i.e. the ordering of songs to create a compelling narrative and flow. This is where albums have a leg up over playlists.Why is album sequencing important? From start to finish, the best albums show a good sense of dynamics, detail, and story telling. Sequencing is crucial in this process. Two soft songs in a row will play much differently than a transition from a soft song to an edgy one. Listeners can easily skip from one song to another, so take this as your chance to convince them otherwise. Give them a reason to stick around and listen to multiple songs in a row, the way they were intended.Sequencing is artistic. It’s just as important as mixing or arranging. You need to think of it as an extension of your songwriting. Deciding exactly how listeners will experience your finished album is super satisfying. Think about your own favourite albums. It’s easy to see how the album sequencing plays a huge role in how we experience music.thejadededge.com/album-sequencing-lost-art/ Have you ever listened to an entire album without skipping because it was just that good? What is the key to having a no-skip album, or playlist? The answer to that question is sequencing. Sequencing is what makes the songs into a story with a beginning and end, and gives it a special flow. When it comes to album sequencing a question that you should ask yourself is, what song should come first? What goes last? And what is in between? In this article, we will be answering all of the important questions of how to create a captivating sequence, how to fade and zoom out, and how to create a dream sequence.From a Wikipedia definition, sequencing is “The restatement of a motif or longer melodic (or harmonic) passage at a higher or lower pitch in the same voice. It is one of the most common and simple methods of elaborating a melody in eighteenth and nineteenth-century classical music”. In plain man words, sequencing is the process of ordering musical notes to create a harmonic flow. For albums, this means curating the order of songs to create a dynamic story through techniques of fade-ins, fade-outs between songs. Think of sequencing as writing a story, it would be odd if in the 1st chapter the characters are introduced, and in the next chapter, they are dead. For your listeners, it would be awkward to hear a soft song that transitions into a heavy fast-paced song. Singles are what attract your listeners, but an album is how you make them into fans. You have worked hard to create and produced every part of your story, so take the time to focus on the sequencing. Listeners will easily skip from one song to the next, you need to give your listeners a reason to stay for the whole story, and not to skip chapters. www.izotope.com/en/learn/album-sequencing-in-the-age-of-streaming.html Why is album sequencing important?

It’s just as important as mixing or arranging. You need to think of it as an extension of your songwriting. blog.discmakers.com/2020/01/how-to-sequence-an-album/ Step #5: Create flow Not only do you want variety from song to song, you also want to vary up the way your songs segue into each other. Sometimes you want songs to fade out, followed by a few seconds of silence before the next track starts. This is especially good if the song in question is powerful, so listeners will have a chance to digest it all before the next song begins. Other times, you’ll want one song to flow into the next, or perhaps have a song brashly cut to the next one, startling the listener. Again, the White Album offers up a nice mix of segues. “Back in the U.S.S.R.” cross fades into “Dear Prudence.” “The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill” ends abruptly, cutting straight into “While My Guitar Gently Weeps.” The variety of songs and segues keep the listener engaged. (By the way, in order to get these segues just right, you’ll want to hire a mastering engineer who will have the tools and experience to handle fades, cross fades, and everything else you need.) Step #6: Break your album into chapters Listeners need a break in the action, otherwise they get overwhelmed. Albums used to have two sides, so artists were forced into telling a story in two, roughly 20-minute chapters (or four chapters for double albums). Today you have the ability to break your album into as many chapters as you want, and keeping them to 20 minutes or less is good practice. To create a suite or chapter, simply have the last song in that chapter fade out or include a grand finale of sorts, then include a few extra seconds of silence before beginning the next. Smile, by Brian Wilson, is nice example of an album that is broken up into three chapters. The songs within each chapter flow directly into each other, but then there is a definite sense of closure to each suite. in your own words do you think Album 💿 order,sequencing,tracklisting is lost or not to me Album sequencing is not lost Nathan I personally concur 👍 that it’s like a chapter in a book 📖 but with music 🎼 but what’s your opinion about album sequencing or song order or even tracklisting being lost or not?
It is a cohesive collection of songs used to tell a bigger theme or project an overall vibe. Think of an album as a book. And your songs as chapters. Every book has chapters. Every album has songs. Each chapter is different. Each song is different. But the collection of chapters (the collection of songs) is what tells the full story of the book (of the album).It's usually the artist and/or producer who decides the song order and the mastering engineer who does the actual editing and sequencing. In your own words Nathan why the producer decided the song order/sequencing/tracklisting while the mastering engineer does the actual editing and sequencing?

Is song order album 💿 sequencing and tracklisting same or different?
In my opinion, I'd say sequencing is the process of selecting the song order (aka track listing) for an album 👍🏻
@@bedroommusicproducer I concur 👍. I totally 💯 👍 agree with you.
