    the story is based on one metric which doesn't answer why he has been able to write so many pop tunes successfully. Chord progression and changes, melodies, BPM, and his other creative people adding sound scape design, etc.,if you asked him, he could probably do a bunch of Avicii type tunes or Pink Floyd, but MM likes the light EDM platforms with voices added. Not the most creative space compositionally, but it seems to work..ask Rick Beato..

    TLDR: Max Martin's arrangements are the real secret sauce.
    I've spent an unreasonable amount of time listening to Max Martin's discography - from the Cheiron to MXM etc. One of the factors in his songs that I would debate is a bigger contributor to his lasting success, over the intros, is the arrangement of his records.
    Take for example 'It's Gonna Be Me' by NSYNC; it has that classic Cheiron era piano stab intro to a beat box break, then when the first verse arrives the percussion falls out for h a bar then a snare hit invites the beat back in, the pre chorus changes the chords to make the chorus more impactful. They repeat that sequence for the second verse/pre/chorus, then add an airy non percussive bridge after that builds to the last chorus which gave us the now iconic "it's gonna be may' line and then just repeat the chorus with more harmonies until it ends on the title line - boom you got a hit.
    The sense of momentum and movement he seems to be able to imbue into his productions/songwriting I believe is the real key to getting that hit. The intro is just opening the door, the arrangement is what keeps you at the party. His work is a masterclass in growing a song while keep the core simple. 'Since U Been Gone' starts really small and subdued until it just explodes at the chorus with the catharsis of being free from a relationship, from that point the toothpaste is out so might as well squeeze out the rest. There are so many other aspects of his work that could be pointed to as well - collaboration, reshaping of vowels to make words easier to sing, the adherence to one melody, the ridiculous harmonies, etc. As chef Marco Pierre White said, " Perfection is lots of little things done well" and Max Martin - along with his collaborators - knows how to those little things very well.

      Ya.. where old pop music focuses on harmonic functionality (I.e. dominant/tonic dissonant/consonant relationships) MM was one of the first true “21st century” songwriters in the sense he brought more of an emphasis on sonic functionality in contemporary pop(energy flows and density via arrangement tricks like muting elements/adding elements). All of his songs are entirely a function of energy dynamics. They can be graphed out very easily

  • @DMulabiTalejan
    @DMulabiTalejan Рік тому +44

    The length of the intro was also because of the DJ technology. When DJing, you need to bring in the next song as an instrumental (beats only not to interfere with current song words/singing). Back then we did not have loop function. The loop function helps to hold the incoming song at a few repeating seconds of the intro while you mix out the outgoing song, then you release the current song loop for the song to go forward. In old days you needed the song to have a longer instrumental/intro length at the start to enable you smoothly mix out the outgoing song without mashing up the songs words/singing. The outro was also very long back then, for the same reason. Actually, i think that is why we used to have two versions of the same song in some cases. What in the DJ circles they used to call the 12 inch version normally had long intros and outros than the radio or public consumer versions.

    It's called the "10 Second Rule" (I've also heard 8 seconds). We've been talking about this in the world of music for a long time, I've heard it explained as a rule of thumb for commercial radio. It's partly based on trying to anticipate people's attention span. But it also just comes from average tempos and the fact that almost all music is in 4/4 time. 4 bars of 4/4 time at 120bpm is about 8 seconds.

    It was the ability to instantly skip to the next song that changed listening habits forever. Choosing what songs NOT to hear is part of the process of refining what we like. With older formats like cassette we learned to be tolerant of songs we didn't necessarily like on our first listen. With the arrival of the skip button(cd format), we could ditch these songs and head straight for the honey

    Intros in songs in the 40s were a lot longer than they are now, and most songs were shorter. A song would sometimes play for 90 seconds before the vocal would kick in, and songs were frequently 3 minutes or less. Of course, music was different too. Big bands were the thing, and vocalists were just part of a group where some instrumentalists took as much spotlight as any singer. It was a different era entirely, musically speaking.

THOSE are the kind of metrics where he can play tricks on the listener by creating the psychological 'catchiness'.

    Keith Richards always said that for a single (not so much album tracks) something new has to happen every ten seconds. Twenty years before this data set has examined. This isn’t exactly new thinking. But yes, music did become slightly more indulgent in the 80s, partly because consumers were listening to it on decent home hi fis, and not as background music, whereas today music is consumed more incidentally.

    Catering to streaming metrics has ruined mainstream music- there is no character, technical variety, or song dynamics anymore. And most importantly- there is no vision or message in most songs.
    Just look at how many Top 25 Spotify artists and Coachella headliners that can't play an instrument to save their life- or at the very least write a full verse completely on their own that actually speaks something meaningful.
    But now music is all BPM and hooks and volume. There's nothing artistically reflective about the human condition in any of those songs. But the numbers and analytics say they are are selling more than the Beatles, so who cares right? Not only have our collective attention spans been ruined...We have lost focus in what's truly important and don't even realize it yet...

      Speak for yourself. Loads of us still listen to great new music. Sounds like you're looking in the wrong places. Who looks at top 25 on Spotify and expects what you're looking for. Spotify is an international platform. What makes you think you're gonna hear in-depth songs with strongs topic lines when the way to have an international sucsess is to have a simple yet catchy melody. The lyrics aren't important to someone who can't speak English 🤔.
      Do you really think a song like shape of you by ed Sheeran is much different to a song like sun is shining by Bob Marley or any other job Marley hit. There pretty fuking simple.
      No doubt you would have overlooked Bob Marley's music (most of his hits are about cheesy love not politics). It was pop music through and through.

    Just in case you missed the underlying theme... mega pop stars can't write their own music to save their lives.

      How about, Dua Lipa, Olivia Rodrigo, The Weeknd, Ed Sheeran, Lady Gaga, Billie Eilish. They all do?
      And there are no bigger popstars out right now than them.

    I noticed out of all Max’s number one hits, 18 of them were with a specific demographic: white solo female pop acts. He seems to have a knack for crafting no.1 hits for them specifically, rather than male soloists or bands. Why is that? Is that because he clicks better with women, or his songs are more marketable with women? 🤔

      Pop in general is pretty generic music.
      Nothing fancy about it for the most part.
      But I do agree women tend to be more marketable with pop songs. Idk if it's just me, but Pop music sounds slightly more in favor to women to sing. It kinda sounds like a more feminine gener, so maybe that's why as you stated it's easier to market a song or artist that's a women

    Playing four bars of the verse chord progression before the rest of the band and the vocals come in is not a real intro. What happened is that Intros are dissappearing, just as pre choruses and complex melodies. Its all down to "hooks".
    Could it be the average songwriter have become lazier?

    This is a bit silly. Only one out of many many metrics that together are what make a song pop. Length of intro alone doesnt really even say much, many other factors at play
