how crazy is it i thought it was the same song until Often

Don’t care. He still makes some of the best music of all time

Bc he put them all in the same key

That’s actually genius

Literally the only remotely interesting music he makes is the modular stuff

All I see here is a majority of pop songs use the pentatonic scale. The way he worded that tweet was to attract all the "pop/rap/mainstream music is trash!!" people who have the dumbest opinions on music in general.

Play the song "Next" and say this again.

Because they suck at sound selection and arrangement.

They learn it in school as a science instead of it being a fun thing you feel

I’d even say the artists with a basic understanding are the ones who “get” music theory more than people who went to school for it

Tell me 2 songs on Trilogy that sound the same

Weeknd never had crazy vocal range

After his falsetto he’s cooked

3:05

I stand corrected

Yeah it's a shame he doesn't utilize his voice on recording more, because it's not like he can't do it he just chooses not to for some reason lol

He found a winning formula

chords and melody are nothing without a characteristic rhythm.

rhythm and phrasing is more important than note choice.

Say anything negative about Abel and you’ve got 10 pages of angry stans guaranteed. You messed up
