ABOUT JACOB COLLIER
It’s not often one encounters an imagination with the depth and prolificacy of Jacob Collier’s. The London-based 28-year-old is dubbed by many as one of the most innovative musicians of his generation. In 2012, Jacob's self-made KZbin videos achieved legendary status in the music world, attracting the praise of such luminaries as Herbie Hancock and Quincy Jones, who manages Jacob to this day. Jacob’s debut album, In My Room, crafted entirely in his room at home, went on to win two Grammys. His success has led to musical collaborators and fans including the likes of Coldplay, John Mayer, Ty Dolla $ign, Tori Kelly, Daniel Caesar, Charlie Puth, Jessie Reyez, T-Pain, and SZA (to name a few).

Do you recognize the concepts Jacob explains in any other melodies? Which are your favorites?

I’m reminded of Phantom of the Opera. The big interval jump from “The phaaaaantom” and then the run down of the smaller intervals “…of the opera is here”.

11:13 I love how Jacob "uhms" in key - just brilliant

[@bartgertsen6181]

Uhm in F

[@theEduEnthusiast]

I was thinking the same!

[@Kahor2]

I might be wrong, but to me that uhm in key is a very powerful skill demonstration - even if it is unconscious. He often refers to his approach to music as speaking another language. What is in the uhm is like what an interpreter does when she interprets simultaneously: listens, understands, translates and speaks in another language all at the same time. The uhm vocalized in key certainly shows how his consciousness immersed in the musical 'layer' of he's inner processes translates to vocal language - while he's analytically explaining a theory at the same time (!!!). Seeing a live MRI feed of his left and right brain doing this excercise would be quite a spectacle as these functions normally stem from different halves of the brain. I'm sure his background had built and strenghtened quite many unusual neural pathways - highways in his case. That uhm is ways past hats off.

@@nuberiffic In the end you're right it is just you imagining a melody. But this method distracts you from focusing on perfecting the melody too much. By imagining that someone else sings you a melody, you tend to come up with a melody that radiates a similar feeling you feel when you see that person. It's a great way to put emotion into a melody instead of analytically putting it together.

The elusive thing about melody is that you can analyse 100 melodies that most people consider good. Then write a new melody that has all the characteristics of the 100 good ones and there is no guarantee that it will be good. It will probably be OK but not necessarily as good as the ones you analysed. There is something elusive that makes a melody stand out that is hard to quantify. That's possibly why Jacob with all his skills still considers this hard and is still fascinated by this aspect of music.

[@jazznutz]

Smartest comment I've read this whole thread, especially about the elusiveness and magic of melody that keeps music fascinating for Jacob.

[@Iseomagicpromotion]

@@eugenemitchell9231 _its_ toes, even

[@wanderer.antonio]

That's because this is a spiritual world with spiritual underpinnings. What makes a melody sound good has to do with the human archetypal nature. Seeing as how all of humanity is connected, and genetically linked, what happens during one time period has the power to both affect the future and past. In essence; current melodies are a result of survivorship bias. They are only good because they are remembered as such. Shift a melody into a propaganda piece and it can forever alter its 'meaningful' nature. A song that is about violence sounds good to a violent world. In a world of peace, sweet, peaceful sounds are more welcoming. This is why humanity enjoys different genres yet still find some melodies universally "good'. We may all be scattered and distorted in our ways (musical genres) but we all share the same goal, the drive to become one with God again. We seek those melodies which evoke a sense of God within us. That remind us of our everlasting, omnipotent, omniscient selves. The self from. where we came and from where we end up. The alpha and the omega. The melody sounds good because you make it so. The perceived beauty is a reflection of your current spiritual state.

[@Pulse2AM]

I think has integral to the music in a way that feels right to the song or piece, the direction you want it to move in. That said each thing you add moves the song in a direction so it becomes a matter of taste, is it moving in the direction you want and what feels good to you hopefully others too.

[@flavio5046]

My own personal trick to make a nice melody when I'm "out of ideas" is: First, make something "good" Second, make something "bad" You'll realise that the "bad" version is what you were holding from playing on the good version, and is what actually makes your song interesting and brings new ideas. But if you only try to make it bad, you'll start making random things and everything will sound ok. So it's nice to keep the quality in check and your brain working, but also allowing randomness. I don't know, it's kind of a balance

[@Dulnlop]

Absolutely loved this!! Please consider doing a similar one about vocals! 💚

[@Veridi]

I think it isn't difficult to learn these concepts because they are in videos like this one. However, it seems like nobody teaches that melody also needs to follow the harmony. Once you know how non-chord tones work, it's like your melody and harmony are finally able to communicate with each other and you can adjust the melody to fit the harmony or the other way around. It's not the only thing that makes a melody sound good, but it's one of those things that pitifully don't appear in melody tutorials on KZbin. Edit: I'm sorry if it wasn't clear enough, but you can make the melody first if you want to, the order doesn't matter. Try to do it the way that works best for you. This is more about them agreeing with each other.

[@jukka2979]

What are non-chord tones?

[@Veridi]

@@jukka2979 I think it's useful to look it up rather than putting a whole theory lesson into a comment. There's also a free online book called Open Music Theory that you could use.

[@rix0r222]

I think it's usually best to make the harmony fit and support the melody, but sometimes you have worked out a harmony you like first and need to do it the other way around.

[@yvancluet8146]

Or maybe the harmony should follow the melody ? If you have the melody first, the harmony is a blank canvas for you to make it match your melody

[@AtomizedSound]

They usually go hand in hand but music is an open landscape for your creativity. You can have all melody and no harmony and conversely vice versa although more uncommon and somewhat interwoven if all harmony that functions as melodic at they point. Melody is the building blocks as he states.

I like this lesson thank you! When I write vocal melodies I usually wait to hear it in my head, sometimes they're garbage and I trash them and wait for another moment, sometimes a different hour or different day. Then I listen back and decide what I like about it if anything and re-do what I don't like. On good day it just flows and most of it is a keeper on bad days the song goes in the trash. Writting songs is free, you only spend time which I guess isn't really free.

Hey all. Hey Jacob!!! Just to be clear... the lesson was about what you play on your instrument when searching for melodies.. and what you sing if you allow yourself to hear something.. and.. and here's the thing.. how different those two things can be. Why? Because when you play your instrument you can go into automatic pilot and your fingers do the walking and your creative ear stops working properly. So you can easily move into the digital pattern domain and not even realise it. So, take a breath and just listen and allow something to come to you. Even if the notes arn't quite right yet, you'll get some kind of natural organic rhythm that uses space and held notes as well as movement. There are many technical aspects also to writing melody, but this one has a natural, intuitive path, and works well alongside the more obvious methods of melodic curve, structure, repetition, etc etc. Stay safe and well in these troubled times.

[@unidentifiedshrub8897]

When he was talking about how is friend was teaching him how to make a good Melody it really reminded me of how that was my problem as a kid I always wanted to make music I had some interest in it but everyone kept trying teaching me the rules, like there is 4th 5th and if you weren't to understand how chords work and didn't work hard enough you probably aren't going get anywhere. But when he was talking about when just letting it come to you, that's something I just recently discovered and I full on understand him completely and I wish someone had told me something like that sooner. If someone told me as a kid you just had to enjoy it you just have to enjoy making music - that probably would have changed my perspective completely and I probably would have made so many songs back then but it's because even though I have a good ear I still in my mind believed that since I don't know what chords are and I don't know what A fifth is and all this stuff I don't know the notes on the keys my song is not legit and not good enough and there's no way that could be a proper Melody because I had no clue what I was doing instead of just listening if it sounded good or not. Now since I've come to that conclusion I started working on music more I'm now 20 it's taken me that long to realize that and because I'm enjoying it and I know that I have a good ear and I know what a good Melody sounds like just from listening I've actually learned how to play the piano just by practicing I now know what notes are on the keys without even really teaching myself! Since I don't have that in my head that I don't have to work hard I just have to enjoy it it's open up such a big path for me now, I'm making so many songs and they actually do sound good I understand that like knowing the fundamentals really help with making music, but I feel like some people who are like me as long as you have a good ear, fundamentals can be learned after, and along the way while you are making me songs! I'm understanding what fifth is, it's so freaking simple, the piano is actually incredibly simple maybe not when you come to classical bloody songs where you break your freaking fingers, but yeah obviously you got to have fun and if you're enjoying learning, obviously when you work hard if you're enjoying it of course you're going to work hard, if it's something you love. If someone told me this sooner, I would have called myself a musician. But now I can finally say so. I remember some of the melodies I created when I was seven but of course I didn't think it was a good Melody because why would it be I didn't know shit, but now I'm improving it and making it into an actual song because it deserves recognition finally. Thank you so much for this lesson this is absolutely beautiful💖

One thing about melodies I learned at piano classes (actually about improvisation) is that the best ones are the singable ones. That's why it's better to create a melody by singing it or imagining someone doing it. Sometimes it has to breath, it has physical limitations when it comes to intervals and range. That's why we often see skilled performers singing while they're improvising.

That's because I can visualise it in my mind as clear as I could visualise a drawing before painting it. I want to make a melody that sounds like Spring? I just think about songs I remember which sounds like Spring to get some inspiration, I figure it in my mind and I start directly playing the piano (because I already know more or less what notes must be played) like if it was a pencil colour to draw.
