7:26 "i made the intro really quiet in the mix so people would turn it up and be like WOAH" brooooo ive been doing this on every beat for years its a great technique! great minds...
When I first heard this song I thought it was gonna be an oldies type vibe I was like “ okay okay Mac I see you” than BAM the beat dropped and I got this internal feeling that I felt in a really long time, god this song is beautiful.
Nowadays that’s how all producers and rappers start. Influenced by something like this and start on a cracked version of Fl Studio. It’s not like you have to have a big studio to make music nowadays. Some of the biggest songs of the past decade were made by teenagers in their bedroom
one of my favourite tracks off the album - as a producer myself it’s stressful seeing all these big dog producers use all these super expensive plugins but your track uses most of the same plugins as I use - so it’s awesome to see a hit song created with what I believe to be limited resources. amazing job man 👍
I feel like it can too polished and turn into hot garbage when ppl feel the need to stretch for the craziest plugins and shit. the simpler shit is more pivotal
@@blob_cancel_aftercast exaclty. simplicity is important, it doesn't need to be super duper mega complex if a simple one does a better job. fast response lol
@@dionb7584 stopped shortly but started again, faces has numerous weed references from 2013-2014, good am and swimming also have plenty of them too, not to mention unreleased stuff.
That’s pretty incredible that you have all that from him ....low key happy birthday to mac! he and I have the exact same birthday and I mean everything day month year both 29 today
Awesome! I had no idea Disclosure made the instrumental for Blue World! It's a bit like when you don't know when two celebs are related and when you find out you're like oh yeah duh they look alike. Now that i know these guys made Blue world I can tell it has Disclosure written all over it.
I will never forget the very first time I listened to Blue World... did exactly what you had mentioned: turned headphones up for the intro and then BAM! Gave me absolute chills man! Much love and thank you for your work!
My favorite song to bump in the car, windows down, sunroof open and vibes flowin. One of those songs I feel compelled to play to anyone who hasn't heard it. Seeing the reaction when the beat drops is pure entertainment and punches right in the feels.
Word's can't express how grateful I am for you sharing this Disclosure. I remember hearing this as the album played, and feeling pure euphoria wondering who the hell produced it. It's a gift I'm beyond grateful for, to be able to see the project file. ❤️ Thank you.
When this album came out i was on probation and couldnt smoke. I had two or three weeks left to get off probation after this came out, so naturally I waited. Went to the youtube playlist and hit the SHIT out of my new bong i had put aside. Slowly got higher and higher like it was for the first time again, and i was diggin the record hard. THEN THIS SONG CAME ON, AND I WAS DANCIN. I WAS WALKING AROUND MY LIVING ROOM TRYNA LEARN THE HOOK AS HE SANG IT YAKNOW TRYNA SING ALONG WITH THIS TURNED UP ALL THE WAY I WAS SO HAPPY I WANTED TO CRY. Once he said “here to make it all better with a little music for youu” i started to tear up hard and then he said “devil on my doorstep bein so shady mmm dont trip, WE DONT GOTTA LET HIM IN” ive always related so hard to Macs music throughout his entire career as im sure many of you have too. Fuck the negatives. Give a hard thumbs up and smile back!!!! Miss you Mac, always will. Thank you for everything
going through a breakup right now and i’m usually not the kind of guy to cry to music but something about circles and good news makes me bawl my eyes out.. rip mac
@@DISTR4CK actually there are lots lmao. Avicii, Alan Walker, David Guetta, Calvin Harris, DJ Snake, Martin Garrix etc. I mean those guys are bigger than most singers.
@@DISTR4CK so yeah, the days when producers where in the background and considered nothing are long long gone. People realized that producers makes most of the work. Sure, record producers don't want their name on the title but most edm guys do.
@@DISTR4CKNot really, only record producers. Record producers usually don't want their names on the title. Benny Blanco (who used to be a record producer) decided that he didn't wanted to be in the back anymore and now he's huge. But usually most edm producers will want their names on the title. And from 2010-now producers are taking over and aren't in the back. They put their names without crediting the singer which is amazing. Faded, Wake Me Up, Alone, Hey Brother, More Than You Know, and many many manyyyyy more songs.
There's something cathartic about these breakdowns, it's beautiful seeing how the magic/art was made. Big shoutout to Guy, Howard, and their whole team for putting these videos out I fw it 💯👍🏼
Love to see how you made it swing, instead of just putting everything tight in the grid. The swing feel gives it a natural touch and is a big big part of the track for me!
This is so weird yet so... i don't know how to describe it. Mac Miller is my favorite artist and i also like electronic music and just listened to and liked some Disclosure songs. Then i find out Disclosure was involved with Blue world. Two worlds coming together in an unexpected way. Thank you.
16:50 in case anybody tried playing it and realised it sounds different, the chord here is actually Ebmaj9, not D# (or Eb) min9. The former has a blissful/peaceful feeling - you’ll hear it in a lot of jazz/soul/bossa nova - while the latter has a sort of poignant melancholy. That’s how I remember the differences anyway :) The differences lies in the 2nd and 4th notes of the chord: Ebmaj9 = Eb G Bb D F Ebmin9 = Eb Gb Bb Db F
35:58 I feel he makes this sound so that we don´t have mac´s vocals clean cut :S . Nevertheless, nice vid man it´s an honor having all this info for free really appreciate
I have a newfound love and respect for Disclosure after this. It's so easy to shun artists that you don't feel an immediate connection to but having watched you guys on twitch in the last year and hearing this little talk on what went into making the song (my fav mac song) makes me really appreciate what you've contributed to music, Guy+Howie. Cheers lads.
I vividly remember hearing this song for the first time. Was producing some beats with a homie at a studio. We listened to the album start to finish. Crazy how time flies.
This might be my favorite beat of all time and hearing its a blue world without you when first hearing this brought me to tears but when the beat dropped i was like YOOOOOOOOOO this the best mac song ever and thats REALLY saying something! THANK YOU!
Sooooo jealous you got to meet him and work with him dude. He's such an incredible artist. And blue world is incredible, great job and thank you for creating this track with him. R.I.P. and he will inspire our music, lives and creativity for ever. :)
This is the most amazing thing I’ve ever discovered…never would I have guessed that I’d learn the inside story in how this was written and mixed!! I was transfixed the first moment I heard it!
I like the neat detail of you adding airhorn sounds and other things when playing the vocals or other "confidential" parts that people could easily steal to use for themselves.
oh my god this video is amazing, I been looking for someone explaining this song when it came out last year and damn... I didnt know u produced it =) this is amazing, rip Mac
This was so amazing to see. There is so much I still need to wrap my head around, but its stunning for me to see how one of Macs songs is structured and put together.
This song just hit different, I think I may have listened to this one the most. Thank you so much for doing this video, it's really fun to see where the sample came from and how you've used it, I've always wondered what the i-i-i-i- i-i- i-i-i-i- a-a--a- a-a-a a-a-a-a was and it's always fun to discover new (old) artists
I googled to find maybe a reddit post explaining a bit of what makes the song sound so good, and then I found a whole 45 minute video deconstructing it :o. Both surprised and not at all surprised to find that Disclosure is behind it. Amazing video
Amazing to have such a special materials for all of us here, thank you. I always wondered how original Mac's sound was created combining retro with modern styles

Neither did I, remember hearing Blue World for the first time and thinking this could be a disclosure track without the vocals. XD
It makes sense tho right?
@@pacn69 perfect sense
Insane right
Damn.. Guy already has Christmas vibes and it's only January.
This live prolly old and the vid was posted 2 months ago. I miss the Christmas vibes tho
@@bleedthebeat Haha yes, I know. :)
for real hella early
Christmas is just around the corner..😊
I got chills hearing Macs raw vocals
Agreed! I was looking for this comment. Imagine having Mac’s voice saved on your hard drive like that
yeah for some reason that just made me feel a way

This beat kicked me in the head when I heard it drop the first time. I had the stank face the rest of the song.
Mac Miller + Disclosure = ❤️
I don't know anything about music production and i just watched a guy talk about music for 44 minutes..
If you love music, its fun even it your trash (my old videos prove my point about trash) a freaking blast.
Ong😂, same

Would be amazing to see Jon Brion breakdown the making of the full album song by song. Could you imagine how dope that would be!
i love how Guy just straight up chats to the viewers like were all mates. Coolest/ best producer ever
Never knew drums that off grid was legal
If only you could ask the man JD
the more swing the better
never heard dilla?

@Wafis “lofi” 🥴
ahhh man hearing mac’s isolated vocals come in got me all types of sad again. Lost a legend way too soon 💔
This man used the Exs24 without a sample loaded as an instrument. An absolute madlad

Its insane how much work goes into making tracks, and also how you can make a full song from sampling a 40's jazz acapella band
I knew there was a reason this was my favorite track in circles!
I will never forget the very first time I listened to Blue World... did exactly what you had mentioned: turned headphones up for the intro and then BAM! Gave me absolute chills man! Much love and thank you for your work!
I absolutely love this song, one of my favourites off the album. Looks like the youtube algorithm brought me all the way back to the start, circles.

I literally almost blew my speakers the first time I heard this track! Must of replayed it 3 or 4 times! Absolutely Classic!
Man...This is a masterpiece
Oh my god, this made me so happy seeing this
Song breaks my heart, sure is a blue world with Malcolm. His music will be played for the rest of time, legend.

I'll never forget where I was when I first heard circles...smoking blunt after blunt with my ex out in oregon :)
if I ever hear someone say something negative about mac miller I automatically know they are a terrible person. RIP Mac Miller
Which is why GoldLink is TRASH
going through a breakup right now and i’m usually not the kind of guy to cry to music but something about circles and good news makes me bawl my eyes out.. rip mac
Well I don’t think their a terrible person if they don’t like his music but if they insult him as a person I know their a bad person

Mac left the studio so happy that day… what an amazing record. Thank you guys
how tf did i just found out that guy helped write and produce this gem
