Podcasts about Glass Animals

Rick Derringer, a massive and diverse music producer, has passed away. Vinnie gives a PSA about how music genres shouldn't be exclusionary. Sarah recaps the charts: Teddy Swims ‘Lose Control' passes Glass Animals for the record of longest run on the Billboard Hot 100, and Morgan Wallen's new song is #1. Metallica's music LITERALLY saved a family's life. Plus, the average American only feels fully healthy 19 days a month… ugh!

It's been a busy spring for Julien Baker: she just released a collaborative album with Torres, ‘Send A Prayer My Way', played Coachella with boygenius, & announced her relationship with bandmate Lucy Dacus. Given all that, it seemed like a great time to re-issue my conversation with her from back in 2021. We talked about her last solo record, ‘Little Oblivions', OCD, addiction & relapse, spirituality, & tons more. Her honesty throughout this conversation is why it remains one of my favourite interviews I've done, & one that has also resonated with a lot of you.

The writing process of ‘Two Lives' began right as Kelly Zutrau, aka Wet, discovered that she was pregnant.

Hocus Focus Mix met Glass Animals, Nothing But Thieves, B.o.B., Rihanna

The fourth studio album from human musical group Glass Animals, I Love You So F***ing Much was partly inspired by the success of their song Heatwaves back in 2020.  Frontman Dave Bayley told Consequence Sound that sometimes success can leave you feeling like a “spectator”, with people expecting you to act a certain way, which "confused [him] to the point of not knowing who [he] was or if anything was real".  The title refers to the power and mystery of human connection in a universe much larger than the people who reside within.  Estelle Clifford joined Francesca Rudkin to give her thoughts on the album.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

 How to Write a Catchy Melody.   Download PDF Tutorialincludes multitrack MIDI file  If the link above does not work, paste this into your browser:https://hackmusictheory.com/album/2877864/catchy-melody      Intro.  British band Glass Animals are absolutely massive! At the time of writing this, they're ranked #257 in the world on Spotify. Most artists as famous as them have achieved their success as a result of an obsessive striving for celebrity. However, Glass Animals seem to be obsessed with making catchy music instead. And not only that, their music is surprisingly creative for a band as successful as them. If you've been doing our Hack Music Theory tutorials for a few years, you'll know that we don't usually cover “celebrity artists”. The reason for that is because (nowadays) there's an inverse correlation between the success of an artist and the creativity of their music. For an artist to achieve a fanbase of tens of millions, their music needs to appeal to the masses. And most people (nowadays) want “sugary” ear-candy music that's pleasantly predictable, i.e. boring, bland background music. So why are we doing a tutorial on such a huge band? Well, Glass Animals' new single “Creatures in Heaven” is a masterclass in catchy melody writing. The lead melody in their chorus has a whole bunch of creative hacks, as well as a very clever twist in its tale. So, inspired by “Creatures in Heaven”, here's our 6-step method for writing a great melody that's catchy enough for the masses. But first… Tea!    Step 1. The Chords  Open your DAW, leave the time signature on 4|4, but change your tempo to 80 BPM. Next, create a four-bar loop on your melody track, with a 1/16 grid. Okay so you may be wondering why the first step in a melody tutorial is… the chords?! Well, all great melodies are written over chords, or implied chords (chords are “implied” when they're not played separately but their notes are incorporated into the melody instead). The reason it's best to write a melody over chords is because it gives the melody a harmonic progression. Without this progression, the melody will sound mind-numbingly boring, as it won't go anywhere harmonically. The difference is night and day. It's like walking through a beautiful forest along the ocean compared to walking on a treadmill in a stinky gym. There's no comparison! So let's get our chord progression written, that way we've set ourselves up to write a great melody. Glass Animals are in the key of D major for their chorus (so we'll use it too), and they use four chords in their progression (so we'll do that too). D Major (notes) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 D E F♯ G A B C♯  D Major (chords)* 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Dmaj Em F♯m Gmaj Amaj Bm C♯dim  *If you need help working out the chords in a key, read Hack 10 in our Free Book.  As you probably know (or as you'll hear if you play it), the diminished chord is crazy dissonant. It's safe to say that using C♯dim ain't gonna appeal to the masses, so take that off your menu. But other than that, you can use whatever you want. Glass Animals use all three major chords, and only one minor. Playing three major chords in a major key gives their chorus a wonderfully uplifting vibe. So, think about your balance between major (happy) and minor (sad) chords. Also, think about the order of your chords. Glass Animals play the root chord (Dmaj) second. This detracts attention from it and creates a more fluid atmosphere. We played Dmaj last, though, which creates a more final ending. You can play Dmaj wherever you want, but consider where you want to draw people to the “home” chord. Here's our progression: Gmaj → Bm → Amaj → Dmaj Once you've chosen your four chords, draw in the root note of each chord for a full bar (in a low octave). These roots will provide harmonic reference for your melody, which you're gonna write above. This way you'll be able to hear the relationship between each note in your melody and its accompanying chord. When you've finished writing your melody, mute these low roots. Then, create another track specifically for your progression, and draw in each full chord (i.e. 1, 3, 5).  Root note of each chord in progression (key note, D, highlighted)    Step 2. The Drama  Great melodies contain drama, and there's no better way to bring the drama than by using a big interval.* You see, larger intervals create intensity, while smaller intervals create continuity. You need both. In fact, you need a lot more smaller intervals than bigger intervals. However, if your melody contains only small intervals, it'll be awfully boring. On the other hand, if your melody contains only big intervals, people will presume you were thoroughly drunk when you wrote it.
