Hey guys, check out our Arrangement Checklist we just made. It expands on the stuff in this video - hope this helps! 👉 www.edmprod.com/arrangement-checklist/
I would propose that if you did NOT see the Abelton tracklist you would have NO IDEA where the music was headed,, giving a build-up, moving towards the bridge, etc. Music is a thing that happens in TIME and we must know where the music has come from in order to understand where it is going to - in this case, a simple "needle drop" somewhere in the track gives no context. If music is boring, it is likely to be for many reasons. Still, I think it is great you are trying to help "producers" make stronger music.
I understand what you're saying, but the track isn't out of context because I'm asking the producer who has created the track, I would assume that the producer knows each section of their own track. I've done this with countless students over the years - when listening to a track start to finish it's extremely easy for me to hear when there is no intent to a particular section of an arrangement. As soon as the intent is lost, the track becomes boring. Now if the producer is able to describe the intent then it shows that the WHY has been thought about during the arrangement process (even if it is something like 'oh this is the chill section before I pick up the energy'). This being said, yes boring music is of course multifaceted, and I never claimed otherwise, this is just one part of the equation :) Thanks for watching and commenting nonetheless!
@@EDMProd I came at this video without knowing the work so I took the advice you gave without knowing the piece - didn't know that the video was aimed at a particular producer. Thanks for clarifying - and I would say that the criticism you are offering needs to land on the ears of many producers. It's a loop problem (should be my tag line)
