Not only is Jack's work inspiring, but just hearing him talk about his processes and limitations and quirks makes me want to go out and make something.
One hundred percent agree with Aaron Longoria! In fact, I’m going to go create right now... super inspiring 🤓
PREACH
I could listen to Jack Antonoff talk about music and his process forever. What a passionate person.
Such a good song that gets better when you see how it was pieced together
Patrick Keastead exactly 🙌🏾 well said
"And that pissed me off because we'd heard that already"
Basically sums up Jack's songwriting process. Just so special and unique
Hey 🌹
Man I woiuld love to just hang out for a day in Jack's studio noodling around with ideas
It's wonderful to hear someone who so clearly understands their medium describe to you the process by which they created their art.
Jack is literally a musical GENIUS. We should all feel really blessed to be living when he's alive and making music for us to thoroughly enjoy. Such talent from one person, blows my mind when I hear this song.
It’s mostly daddy’s money. Plenty of people could do this better. Hell, I do. I wasn’t born rich. Amazing people spend so much money now to all sound the same. It’s capitalism.
@@kostyapolykova9879 Because a guy with a guitar like you do is such an innovative concept, eh?
No
Damn that man is a genius!
I bet my ass Lorde once saw the "Let the bliss begin" cup and was like: you know what? I'll take it
THAT CUP!!!! "Let the bliss begin!"
This is my favorite song off the record.
On da record
Jack is the best producer. He shares his samples for free.
He is one of very few producers I've come across who are super candid about their process, limitations and road blocks included. It's disheartening to watch these types of videos where the producer is just like "oh yeah i just magically came up with this #1 song in 10 minutes". like NO he says this took months and he had mental blocks and asked friends for advice and input. I appreciate that, I want to see more of that realness!
Honestly though, it happens both ways. There are songs that take years, others that happen in a week. Occasionally, less now because of all of the production editing that has to happen, even in a day.
@@BeauStephensonVoiceActor oh I totally agree, the core idea might come to you super fast. I guess I'm referring to artists that make it seem like from idea to finished mastered track took them like an hour to do and that they didn't tinker with anything along the way or change up ideas at all. I just appreciate anyone that acknowledges most things are not effortless and it's okay to admit it took a lot of time and trial and error.
@@SincerelyHannah sometimes you feel extremely creative and that's when you're most productive. producers have bad days as well. since their job is kinda draining because they milk every single idea they have, especially a producer like jack who tries to make everything unique and special. that's my speculation on why it takes that much time.
@@jackieburkhart3268 yeah his music isn't cookie cutter so it's definitely going to take more time and thought to create something. I'm a music producer and songwriter myself so I totally get that and can relate to the experience of a song taking more than an afternoon to come to fruition, that's why I really appreciate him!
This man can turn chaos into music.
One of my top three Bleachers songs. Love this guy, one of a kind!
0:29 mug says "let the bliss begin" like the lyric in solar power
So brilliant. The "I'm Ready To Move On/Mickey Mantle Reprise" was another track from the new album that immediately made me think of The Beatles.
Watching this has made me appreciate this song so much more (even though it was already my favorite song on the album). Its so interesting so hear the meaning behind it, as well as hear all the little details that I didn't notice before. Amazing!!
goodmorning is one of the best songs ever written honestly I'll never get over it
Him talking about what’s in his head reminds me so much of Brian Wilson from The Beach Boys
You are looking so good
When my kids get fed up with the state of the world, I counsel them to look to the artists; to remember that for all the bad stuff, there are people who dedicate their time to creating beautiful things. This is no small thing. Love this song. Thanks for this video.
3:32 his face at "ohhhh she touched me"
I can't wait to see him live!
✨🤯It’s the complexity he speaks of that brings you back for more 🎧🎶
Please make more of these!!!
My favorite off of gone now! Seriously incredible
He's becoming one of my favourite musicians! Great guy and hard worker!
I love your lyrics and how they are so sad and so complex yet the beat seems so happy but so confusing it’s honestly beautiful
Always enjoy listening to a musician talking about writing songs. I wrote an album 40 years ago with a Tascam porta studio on cassette, we have come along way since then. Hahaha. I love the fact it isn't about the chords but the sound just like 40 years ago. The more things change the more they stay the same. Very interesting.
i cannot explain how much i love this video, i come back to it every few months. it brings me so much joy.
Remeniscent of “whiter shade of pale” by provolones harem, especially that synth string part.
He’s so talented and the way he works it’s just amazing
Such a genuine genius
dude it kinda sounds like an upbeat version of Liability
Eric John lol would make sense because he helped Lorde with melodrama
Yeah he and Lorde were the executive producers of Melodrama
it's the same chords technically
hahahahaha yes !!
lirruhlee
Love it! Always love seeing your process man... The space you're working in is super open and feels how your music sounds to me.
0:29 !!!!
that mug!!!!! it inspired Solar Power??
learned a lot here
thanks
yes more of this!
This is so inspiring
This was so enjoyable to watch and to hear the thought process and the progression. All that hard work and the idea progression was so satisfying to watch.
Awesome blend of analytical and emotional.Inspiring. Thank you!
THAT'S WHAT YOU CALL TALENT LADIES AND GENTS.
Skill* dedication* passion*
That's the way it is !!!
0:29 I guess we know where Lorde got the inspiration for that one lyric in Solar Power lmaoooooo
"The one moment of the day you think clearly"
Me just as I've woken up: I need to make sure Brendan doesn't bring mayonnaise to that concert this afternoon, it will ruin it if he does.
Also me 5 minutes later: wtf i dont even know a Brendan?
One of top 3 favorites from him! Genius!
wow, beautiful studio.
Make me a singer hahaha I really admire Jack, he’s unique and and makes art. So amazing!
CHILLS.
So good my gosh
beautiful
Pretty impressive how recognizable the beetle sound is
Fav song on Gone Now!
Amazing
Nico Segel. Perfects every song he touch
highkey my fave
Now I’m inspired to create my new little studio
It's so easy to love Bleachers
wish i had an ounce of his creativity
How. Amazing. I love you ❤️
He's going to be seen as one of the greatest producers of the last 20 years by the end of the next decade! Thank you Jack for inspiring young producers and songwriters
i just realized the chords to this song are very similar to lorde's liability... which is understandable considering he produced her entire melodrama album ❤️
also these (almost) exact chords have been used a million times
@@coleemmersonhallman5329 *uproarious applause*
@@jkimv7481 i wasn’t trying to diss anyone! i was just saying that lorde wasn’t stealing from jack really, cause it’s a common progression. i love both their music
@@coleemmersonhallman5329 hahaha it’s cool 😁 i wrote that comment 11 months ago and you pointed out something that was very fair that should’ve also been quite obvious to me 😅 and i love them both too! hope you have an awesome day ☺️
@@jkimv7481 you too!
i'm crying because good morning is my fave bleachers song 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Now I know why I liked this song so much
Crazy that there's people running around that think nothing like most of us, and have the vision to put together so many small things to create something out of it. It's basically magic, to me at least.
I love watching musicians and producers create it inspires me. This made me go and listen to a whiter shade of pale.
that studio 🤤
Great vid. Good insight. Question….when [person] adds trumpet/bass etc. Are they getting paid for a session? I’m always interested in these productions where lots of people are involved. Do you just buy them a coffee? Contribute to their record? How does that work. 👍
This is the best song of the year imo
ur doing great sweetie
i don’t know why this video made the song sound so much more meaningful and interesting
It's Time For Another Bleachers Record, Jack
Really need a new bleachers album 😩😩😩
whoa...
nice
And then he recycled the Beatle-esque sensibility on Lana Del Reys new album on The Greatest
I wanna buy his album but I am not in the US. How can I get his copy?
I have the same jacket as jack
Mario ماريو that's pretty cool
Where do you get said jacket??????
i’m so attracted to this man
lmao same
He's such a fucking genius 👏
Fuck my band played a festival with Bleachers in 2015 but didn't know them then ... was totally hanging beside Jack in the artist tent but had no idea I'd regret not meeting him.
does anyone know what program jack is using here ?? it would help me tons
Chicken Noodle He's using ProTools.
i enjoy how he hates his own song throughout explaining his process
what’s the name of the program
what's the tool near his mouse he tweaks at 3:22?
It's just the monitor controller ( to control the volume and what source you want to listen to ) . The model is Dangerous Music Controller ST
Whiter Shade of Pale type organ would be cool
genius
Nice job on the mixdown, Been busy in the studio myself wokring on music, writeing lyrics and stuff. If there was ever a time dont hesitate to reach out man. I tried to but apparenly you'r email was blocked.. Nice job. one music creater to another,,
2:04 super bass-ic xD
Am I the only one who thinks this feels like a “mockumentary”?
He’s a genius.
2:15 Rico is a fan of Bachs Air no. 3 ;-)
Does anyone know what software he's using?
pro tools
Lana at the top of her game working with him.
It sounds like Cups and Cakes by Spinal Tap.
I like how wonderfully quirky and sort of bizarre this song is. It really is Jack Antonoff if he were in the Beatles. Good stuff.
I want the MD4000 so bad
can definitely hear a maxwells silver hammer influence
Ahhhh you can hear a snip it if Lana’s album they worked on at the beginning??????
fucking artists man
The first five chords are "Whiter Shade of Pale"
The first five chords of almost anything are the first five chords of many other somethings.
In 100 years from now I'm sure you'll still be hearing song writers say "I made this song Beatlesque". But not likely that you'll hear "I made this song Taylor Swiftesque".
