It’s so amazing to see everything broken down; some bits you might only notice when they’ve been separated from everything else but that just gives you a deeper appreciation for how it all comes together to make something perfect. 3:09 I love how casually he says “and then I came up with this string line” before proceeding to play the most fire thing ever.
I really love the effort they put into this, every detail, and how the song describes perfectly what happens to Barbie and us as humans. like "when my world shakes i feel alive" is a wonderful lyric for me. I hope they win the Golden Globe and get nominated for an Oscar.
After watching the movie you realize how much foreshadowing this song crams into a banger. Props to dua and ronson for slipping all those bits in while making it such a catchy song.
I know this video is targeted for a commercial audience, but man as an audio engineer student I'd love to see that vocal chain, like DAMN those vocals are so perfectly recorded and sound huge on their own!
@@juliekrol sorry disagree - pitch correction is exactly that... it corrects pitch. It doesn't add 'fullness' or a 'huge' sound, it doesn't replace the work of an engineer or change the natural character of a voice.
@@louisr5708 this is so true! You may have perfect pitch but if you can’t do or have the certain sound quality or vocal placement needed for a song, that’s something a computer program can’t cheat 🤭
I love the sound of this track too and it was great to come across this video. Wiki says it was mixed by Serban Ghenea. This guy has compiled a youtube video about Ghenea's vocal chain or at least what he thinks it is based on different bits of info. ua-cam.com/video/xjk_Mw11Iug/v-deo.html You can also get a similarly present vocal sound by using the old trick of an 1176 compressor followed by an LA-2A compressor. You can absolutely smash a lead vocal with an LA-2A, it pins it to the front of the mix but doesn't sound overly compressed. The 1176 is first in the chain set to knock down the faster, louder peaks by a few dB because the LA-2A is too slow to catch those and will still be releasing before the next fast, big peak comes in. Then with the signal smoothed out by the 1176, the LA-2A does a really nice job of the main compressor in a really organic sounding way. Maybe you already know this trick but if not, it's a good one. I love the Universal Audio LA-2A silver for this, it's an amazing sounding vocal compressor and right now it's on sale at Plugin Boutique for $29. You get 3 LA-2A's, one of them being the LA-2A Silver which has the ideal release time for vocals. The cheapest I've ever seen these things go for by a mile.

I really love that they chose Dua for this song. Knowing she did ultimate save the pop music with Future Nostalgia, shes really the princess of modern disco pop. Can't wait for more of her!
Mark Ronson is an unsung legend of the music world for the past two decades. together with Dua's gorgeous vocals and style, what a match made in heaven
It’s crazy that the choreography was made long before the song was made that they were “dancing” to in the movie. That would be such a challenge to write!
@@gaila.9852 Nah, sorry, you're just wrong there. There's amazing vocal control going on in that section. Condolences on your apparent inability to even hear that.
@@klaxoncow Condolences on your apparent inability to even acknowledge that many others, known and unknown, can match your fave’s vocals. What a shame it must be to not understand that.
These are mastering stems, which means they’re already mixed. So multiple layers and effects are already applied and merged. But yeah the girl can definitely sing and has a great timbre and control on her voice.
I had NO idea there was a acoustic guitar underneath all the layers. It really beefs up the chorus. Please more breakdowns, I've learned a ton watching this!
Firstly it’s an electric guitar not an acoustic. Secondly in the movie version of the song the electric guitar is used throughout the whole song and in my opinion makes it a lot better. I have no idea why it was removed and why the single and the move versions are different, no one seems to have noticed.
@@Josh-wu7kz First of all watch the video and carefully listen to what Mark is saying. ua-cam.com/video/M0TJtU2Y0s0/v-deo.htmlsi=0NgUQ_XtLEacZ50l&t=353 FYI, I know the difference between an acoustic guitar and a electric guitar smh.
@@Jawnsonproducer I thought you were referring to the bit at the end. Still I don’t understand why the electric guitar was removed in the single, it made the song better imo
ABBA were still using acoustic guitars as far as the Voulez Vous album. Now, the Bee gees and CHIC were doing incredible things with electric, the "chicken scratch" being the most identifiable Disco sound.
I almost regretfully avoided the song until the movie came out. And when I saw it, I didn’t want the disco scene to end! I looked up the music video the next day. I love Dance The Night! Congrats on the Golden Globe nomination!
@Josh-wu7kz - In this video, Mark explains that the production team requested a click track while he was still writing the song - Just so that they could actually shoot the scene in the correct tempo before the song was even finished being written. That is how Dua was writing lyrics while watching the actual footage for the scene. They had the tempo, so they could shoot it - But the song did not actually exist yet.
That’s cause Dua is recently considered a great vocalist. During her live performances, from her first album, she wasn’t spectacular vocally. Her vocals and her dancing have greatly improved. I’ve been a fan since the beginning and I’m glad to see her progression!
If you haven't already, you should check out his TED talk about samples in music. Different topic but I could listen to his chilled, effortless expertise for hours.
So cool to hear each part solo'd. I play this song sometimes on my bass, and I just realized here (around 4:10) that a note I used to play is actually played one octave higher 😄 I mean, just little details.
Me too. I love her kindness, humility, gentleness, calmness, positivity and intelligence, reasons why I am truly in love with Dua Dua and I know can we meet up, and I don't care about the haters opnion because of that I don't listen to them anymore 😊😍❤️
@@Hifirrrr Dua Dua is caring and humble. I can see it in her face and eyes. I love her positivity and vibes because of that I like her as a person and I truly love her too. I never see her as a celeb anymore. She is caring to everyone
This is hands down my favorite song ever. The violins and unusual but incredibly good sounding chord progression make it a unique and perfect masterpiece. Thanks Dua, Mark and everyone involved!
Unbelievable talent between these two. So fascinating to hear all the layers and textures of the song that I hadn’t noticed before, but will now. Isolating all the instruments separately and then her vocals… wow, she sounds incredible. Amazing content!
They probably had BPM to go off, but yeah, that is certainly interesting. The choreo being done before the song seems unusual but it's probably done more often than we realise.
right?? i'm so impressed that the song was ready after they recorded those dance scenes. Both dua and the dancers made a create job, cause it maches perfectly
Maybe i misunderstood but i thought the film crew had a demo without vocals for shooting then they (Dua and Mark) wrote the lyrics and finished the song based on the video. I don’t think thats very unusual, though still cool (but i must admit i was never even near to this level of a production)
I didn't know much about Dua Lipa or that she was a "huge star". I just accidentally heard the song on Spotify while listening with headphones. I had to stop and bookmark it. I've since discovered all her songs are actually really well-composed. All the layering, chord progressions, great harmonies, and the songs are "tight" like a classic 1960's pop hit. Zero fat on her songs. There's a big difference between this song and every other pop song out there today, miles of difference.
Most people don’t realized the huge amount of work it takes for just one song to be made specially a good song like this one ! Love the song and the singer and producer great teamwork !
I enjoyed this breakdown so much. There were so many parts of this song that I missed and I’ve listened to it so much. I appreciate how much work they put into this!
I haven’t deliberately listened to Dua Lipa before this song, but this BTS breakdown with Mark and her was awesome. I am actually obsessed with the song, the dance scene, everything!!!😂 She really has a wonderful crisp tone, a lovely voice. Really hope they win the Grammy with this. It’s such a wonderfully upbeat song!
Love this breakdown. Spent some time doing amateur audio arts and studio production in college, so it's really interesting to get a glimpse of how the pros are currently approaching songwriting and music production. Thanks so much!
i would watch a song breakdown from every f* song of dua's discography. plus she and mark are an iconic duo... the world's most prestigious producer + the world's biggest popstar = timeless BOP
Thanks channel for the excellent "break it down" content. I have an endless appetite for this and would also appreciate even more musical technicalities to be revealed.
I hear Donna Summers MacArthur Park extended version in the instrumentals. Took a few listens to remember it. The audacious vibe of both are present. It's not the notes but the crazy energy and the layering. Great song Mark. Yanked me back to the dance floor.
Dua and Mark could not have made a better track for the movie. Their genius shines throughout this song, because of the limitations of the click track they had to work within that framework.
Those of us with no musical talent at all cannot even imagine how people can hear all these pieces and put them together to make something magical. Mark Ronson is the King of the Earworm. Hear a Mark Ronson composition once and it's in your head for days.
I get some Nile Rogers & Chic . Chic was great group back in the late 70's early 80's with great singers, Nile Rogers on the guitar, Bernard Edwards on Bass, and Tony Thompson on drums.
I consider this song to be your typical bubblegum forgettable chart song, but what's happening in the kitchen between artist and producer is simply fantastic and very very educational for us musicians. Keep them coming Variety! Cheers.
Love seeing videos like this, great to see how a song looks in production, all of the layers that create the final edit. Mark Ronson is a genius and Dua Lipa is an amazing singer, big fan of her music!
there is a rule at the oscars that says only 2 songs from a movie can get nominated for best original song. i hope to god that dance the night and what was i made for get nominated, not i'm just ken. ryan gosling has gotten way more attention than the women involved for a movie that's supposed to be celebrating women. let's not let it happen with the songs too.
Can we get more song breakdowns like this with both the artist and producer?!!
Yes yes yes!
this is only for the oscars. pray next time that a huge comercial movie get the chance to win an oscar with both it's soundtrack and production.

Dua Lipa seems so proud of this song, yet low key and humble at the same time. Such a great song and a beautiful voice.
she did this song superb !!

Dua's purposeful breaking of her voice on the word "hair" is such a great touch. She's bringing the inner turmoil of Barbie to the surface.
After watching the movie you realize how much foreshadowing this song crams into a banger. Props to dua and ronson for slipping all those bits in while making it such a catchy song.
Well said
Barbie didn't have inner turmoil in the 1960s. Lol. We didn't even know what that was!
I know this video is targeted for a commercial audience, but man as an audio engineer student I'd love to see that vocal chain, like DAMN those vocals are so perfectly recorded and sound huge on their own!
As a singer myself I feel the same! Like her vocal sound is already so full on it’s own I’m wondering if it was a double take or compd vocals 😊
That’s with pitch correction…not a real vocal take 😂
@@juliekrol sorry disagree - pitch correction is exactly that... it corrects pitch. It doesn't add 'fullness' or a 'huge' sound, it doesn't replace the work of an engineer or change the natural character of a voice.

I'm 76 yo and fell in love with Dua bcoz of this track. It's amazing and she's brilliant

Who is Sade ?
Shout out to the cast for preforming that to a click track! And these two for making it seem like it was always there!
Blew my mind.
Amazing.
Do you find it difficult to perform to a click? I've refused to play or learn a song without one for many years now!
How do you know they were dancing to a clock track?
