8:20 When you were talking about scale degrees, were you talking in the context of a Major scale even if the song was written in a Minor key (ie. in terms of chord progressions, one would say LP typically starts with the "VI" chord in terms of Major, or the "i" chord in terms of Minor)?

@writemetalmusic 17 күн бұрын

@@antonm_ to me, it's in relation to the key. The 1 chord will always be the root of the key. If I'm talking about a song in a minor context, the 1 would be the the 1 chord that appears in that minor scale, not the 6th chord of the relative major. I think it makes it more confusing if I'm talking about the relative major if the context of the song is minor. I hope that helps clarify.

@@writemetalmusic Got it. I don't really have "good ears" to be able to tell the key nor the intervals and so when I saw the diagram of what intervals are used by the melodies, it threw me off 😅. I guess I didn't really realize that certain songs used the 1,2,b7. Looking at my notes from "Holistic Songwriting"'s LP analysis video, it's interesting to see that even though the guitar's tuning is in Drop C#, C#m and F#m are chosen as keys. It now makes sense to use 1,2,b7 for when the key is F# since it'll be in the same vocal register as the 4th and 5th if the key was C#m.

One thing with Linkin Park is they wrote like a hip hop/electronica group (atleast on their ealrier records). The oppostie approach to most rock bands, where its based around the guitar riff and drums. The songs are are often built around a digital sound, a loop or a sample sequence. Complete contrast to the grunge bands of a generation before, or even their contemporaries, where digital samples were an after thought used in the studio like a bit of salt and pepper. Chord progressions, riffs and drum beats are written like loops, wirh repetative "phrases". Something done well before your modern DAW quantisation focused music production styles. E.g. The drumming style of Rob isnt consistent with your typical hard rock/metal band. Listen to In The End or From The Inside, where the drums follow a repeative sequence, that is full of groove, but follow a very precise and repeating pattern. The drums are also seemleasly blended with "toppers" and beat loops, to give a very structured digital sound, and reproduced live. This way of writing and producing is HEAVILY mimicked by modern metal bands today. Bring Me the Horizon, Northlane, modern metalcore scenes all are heavily influenced by Linkin Park. They are far more influential that people realise.

5:59 It was the other way around. They didn't incorporate hip hop elements into the typical metal sounds. They incorporated the typical metal sounds into their hip hop. That is why there was nothing else like them. The reason they sounded so unique was because they WEREN'T a nu metal band, or indeed a metal band or rock band of any kind. They were an alternative hip hop group. They fused rock and metal sounds into it, but the foundational structure and the production style were hip hop. But since rap rock and nu metal were popular at the time, the label that signed them tried to rebrand them as part of that scene. But not only was that not their sound, but they literally wrote a diss track about that kind of music, trashing it for having no hip hop credibility.

@writemetalmusic Ай бұрын

This makes a lot of sense. Thanks for sharing. What's the diss track? I'm curious to hear it.

@PenneySounds Ай бұрын

@@writemetalmusic It's called "Step Up", released on the EP they produced when they were still called Hybrid Theory. The title and its use in the chorus are a reference to a scratch sample used in "Step in the Arena" by Gang Starr, and later in Tupac's "I Get Around". The track is a diss of the entire rap rock genre, but seemingly of Limp Bizkit in particular. DJ Lethal certainly thought so, and trash talked Mike for years over it. LP hated that genre, but somehow Warner Records made them the face of that genre.

@PenneySounds Ай бұрын

Linkin Park were originally Xero, part of an alternative hip hop collective called Junkyard Scientific, which also included Styles of Beyond. You can hear Junkyard Scientific shouted out in Xero tracks like "Fuse", and SOB tracks like "Dangerous Minds". They featured several times on a hip hop compilation series called Rapology, and you can find those tracks on KZbin. One even features a very similar tone and rap cadence as what would later make Eminem famous. While rap rock bands would write a rock song and then rap and maybe scratch over it, all of LP's early music started with the beat, and everything else was built on top of that, with the rock instruments added over the beat to compliment it, and the vocals and lyrics written last. Produce the track, lay the vocal. Textbook hip hop. For an example, listen to a demo of theirs called "Sad", and compare it to the final song that track became, "By Myself". But Warner Records went to great lengths to try to mix the beats down and the guitars up, to try to bury the hip hop sounds, so they could sell LP to rock listeners. I've made several videos on my channel just playing with the multitracks of LP songs to show people the amount of hip hop artistry that was hidden under those guitars.
