The following song, has a sing-along effect on the audience, in fact, back then [2018] the audience actually asked the band to play it.
One of the biggest problems during the making of an album is saying "No" to the artist. Not all of our ideas will work no matter how good they are. If you are producing your own music I advice you to pay close attention to this matter.
The song we are discussing is a 10 minute-long run that it's actually quite simple the the chord progression and the lyrics are quite simple; but the main melody is something that the audience greatly connects with.
During the course of the production we had hired a female singer to do some improvs at the end of the song with a Hindu technique that she used quite well. She then asked for a chance to show us something she was working on for another part of the song.
If you listen to the harmonizations her idea was really good and interesting but; they are also too complicated so we had to go on another direction and resorted to a lullaby, to do something easier to listen–that de audience could connect with, that's why in the video, at the beginning, the audience is singing with their hands up and waiving, because they really connected with that.
If [as the record's producer] I'd tried to make them to sing along with the first idea, truth is, it'd wouldn't work out at all.
In conclusion: It's not about complicating the song to showoff our abilities as musicians or how much music theory we know, it's not about that but instead, to our audience singing along with you at your shows, that is really what we should be aiming for.
This is the tip of the week and I hope it'll be useful in your next record.
