Course Summary
► Guitar, Chords and Melody:
In the first video we go over the elements of a typical Chainsmokers song, and we write some chords and a melody around a Chainsmokers-type guitar loop. We talk about the types of melodies The Chainsmokers like to use.
► Intro:
We start our song by building and intro. We talk about what kind of elements The Chainsmokers like to use in their intros, including teasing the drop melody to drag your listener in.
► Verse:
In this part we talk about how to make a simple yet effective verse section, using some of the elements from our intro. We keep it simple taking care not to not interfere with any potential vocal that could be added on to the track later.
► Breakdown/Build:
For our breakdown and build, we talk about how to build suspense in pop music without overusing build elements and making the buildup too busy. One plugin we use is Endless Smile by Dada Life, which is an easy way to subtly build suspense without going overboard.
► The Drop & Finishing Touches:
Finally, the drop. We go over the types of stabby chords The Chainsmokers like to use in their songs as well as how to use the melody to give your drop a lot of “bounce.” We also go over what kind of drums/drum patterns The Chainsmokers like to use and finally we polish up our track so it is ready to be heard.
