  • @dqarqeer8603
    @dqarqeer8603 Рік тому +14

    The thing i love about gotye is how much he experiments with different genres. He does reggae with “puzzle with a piece missing” and “state of the art”. He does the 80s pop peter gabriel shit with “night drive” and “giving me a chance”. The 60s soul/motown with “learnalilgivinnlovin” and “i feel better”. And this track sounds straight trip-hop, almost like something from J Dilla’s “donuts” album. Hope he makes solo music again someday.

    All right, let's get aquatinted
    (hello there)
    Music from the bass perspective
    This is a journey into sound
    A journey which along the way will to bring you
    New color, new dimension , new values
    And a new experience - stereophonic sound
    (and now ladies and gentlemen, our feature act tonight)
    (Stop!)
    (Get it, get it, get it!)
    Come on, Come on, Come on
    That was the harpsichord
    Now-a-days, most homes seem to prefer
    The television or radio, to the harpsichord
    But you still hear the piano, all the time
    A flute couldn't do that
    These are some of the difficulties
    With being in this position and talking to you
    And just wanting really deeply to relate to you
    And touch you - not physically - but with vibration
    (ha ha ha ha)
    Never heard metal sound like that before
    The drummer is the heartbeat
    Everything comes from him
    The beat, the time, he is the heartbeat
    It's just like a heart pumping blood
    To the rest of the body
    He is the heartbeat of a band, a group
    He is the heartbeat
    I think around midpoint in my career
    I started to experiment with sounds
    And then it became very important to me to
    Get a distinctive sound
    Get a distinctive sound
    Get a distinctive sound
    Maybe if I spend more time practicing
    Eventually I can get it together
    Um - here's some more music
    All right! Here we go!
    Now were going to use a little power kicks
    Like I showed you before
    We're going to chuck-em real good
    A-minor to F
    Just like all the heavy metal guys use, okay
    Lets get some of that smoke just like on MTV
    Yeah! all right!
    Music - all right
    Yeah! all right!
    Would you say that again
    Yeah! all right!
    Let's play a note
    Yeah! all right!
    Here's some more music
    Yeah! all right!
    Get a distinctive sound
    Get a distinctive sound
    Get a distinctive sound
    Get a distinctive sound
    We've covered a lot of ground, haven't we?
    If there's a part of our story you don't understand
    Why don't you turn this record over
    And start playing over again
    Over again
    Over again
