There are a bunch of apps available that allow you to optimise your phone's recording capabilities. I used one for android that allows you to record the mic from a bluetooth headset, for example. They basically turn your phone into a dictaphone... Another option... is to buy an old digital dictaphone... For very little money you can pick up something that records high quality audio and that can be upgraded, by adding external mics, at a later date if you want. I use an 'Olympus WS-550M' it has internal stereo mics with settings for dictation and conference, with dictation being for recording immediate area and conference designed for recording a whole room... for lectures... or, erm... conferences! I also use it with various mics for different situations. It doesn't look much but it is really handy... not to mention easy to replace. It cost me less than £20.

Adam is totally right about the bass guitar - we hear more of the second harmonic rather than the fundamental of the bass guitar so often cutting a little in that first octave to make room for the kick drum works well.

I would love to see it as a real genre, not just a meme or a trend, with different styles of interpretation of the same speeches.

[@shadowspectrum]

Not exactly the same thing, but a band I was in almost a decade ago, for a long time the singer didn't have anyone else in the band (and we eventually ended up as a 7 piece). So for all of the early songs, she wrote and sang her lyrics to instrumental electronic dance music, like house or trance stuff. There aren't usually too many chord changes in those types of music, sometimes it just stays on one chord for the duration of the track, but she worked out the vocal melodies and also the structure of the songs (where the intro, verses, chorus, bridge, etc all fell) based on the dynamic changes in the tracks, so by the time she had guitarists, a bassist, drummer, pianist, we removed the original backing track she was using, and wrote around her vocal melodies and song structures, I guess in a way re-harmonizing? I'm not really sure exactly how you'd describe it.

I actually disagree with the 1st band guitarist critique, without having any effects, it came off as a lower 4th harmonizing to the vocal, almost vocoder like. That was the first thing that set it apart from something more standard, especially with the keyboardist playing the extended chords

[@CT-Records]

Love 'em. Thumbed up before I even watched. I use Maj7 and Maj6/9 chords interchangeably in composition all the time. And yes, Maj7 on the tonic often collides with the singer. Afterall, sometimes the most powerful note on the I chord IS that tonic!

Me looking at title: Did-did Adam turn Anti-Jazz? Me seeing the bassist in the thumbnail: Oh wait that makes sense

[@neilmarsh7437]

enjoyed seeing Julian Lage mentioned he's been blowing my mind since I heard "Nocturne' - what a player!

Finally! Zappas jazz discharge party hats is becoming the meme it always deserved to be

14:42 sounds like a very laid back, melancholy stanley jordan. Very cool critiques. Thanks for sharing.

[@macey7005]

This is so cool man!

[@troelsknudsen253]

As a mix engineer and producer I really appreciate the way you worded the importance of audio quality.

[@carlfogelin1388]

That quartet that played your song "Ether" reminds me of some recordings I've heard by Steven Reich. Pretty cool!

[@lytyllpype3864]

ha, that is interesting :D btw if you want to listen to the whole song, you can find it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqLdh51_qNqoas0&ab_channel=lytyllpype

10:47 was such a dope hook, but as it went on it totally worked. I def wanna keep tabs on this dude

[@brenta2634]

Me too! Who is this?

I miss the days of "it's got a good beat and you can dance to it"

[@willkirby4805]

The major 7th on the bass worked really well for 1979, but I notice that there’s a lot more space in the riff and arrangement as a whole. When you need faster changes to be articulate and not interfere with other instruments, a more stable voicing becomes more useful in the context, however warbler frequency is good for dynamic resolution in spaces where you really need to fill out the texture.

Adam Neely announces jazz 2

[@juliangruber]

I love that you mentioned using phones as microphones. Even when using mics for drums, I like using my phone as just another ambient mic that I like to place far away, and the inherent compression already works really well for this type of application

[@PatrykPorebski]

Hey, please check out Band Studio app that I’ve created bandstudio.app. It does exactly what Adam suggested in this video - records a band into separate tracks using multiple phones. It also downloads all the tracks to all members phones, mix them together and allows you to play the full mix back. Let me know what you think!

[@jasoncostello1535]

I really dig the “get good” instead of “not suck” makes the video much more feel good

[@varnull6120]

I know last time you tried this the backlash was incredible and I really hope it doesn't happen this time because tbh I love your critique videos. There's something really earnest about the things you review and I always enjoy listening both the the pieces and your critiques.

[@powermetallistic2293]

15:15 "I liked it because it didn't sound like a guitar." every bassplayer :c

[@yzScott]

"You should do everything in your power to have the best possible quality audio you can as a musician." 1000 times yes. And thanks for being an example of your own advice.

I have to say I absolutely love all the content you put out but especially these kinds of videos. So much information to take in.

[@christophervaca7116]

The song "not chameleon" has got people asking a lot of questions already answered by the song title.

[@vincentsivadon4276]

When i saw this format for the first time i felt the "How to no suck at music" thing kind of awkward... But now i feel you always put it the right way . You would always say "You might do that IF IT'S THE WAY YOU WANT IT TO BE", and no "it's bad dude you SHOULD change that". Even with the dissonance-guy, saying that, yes, it can carry an artistic purpose ! I really like the way you see music.

[@DumblyDorr]

Re: the "Art" thing - I was immediately thinking of John Zorn and his brand of, IDK... I kinda wanna call it musique concrète. Also some Dillinger Escape Plan, and some Magma, Zappa and Zeuhl in general. This can be incredibly moving, complex and even serious (though also ludicrous of course) music. My first real experience of how good that music can hit you was in Michael Haneke's *Funny Games*. I mean - if that's not the perfect venue to showcase what such music can do emotionally, IDK what is.

I loved that recorder ensamble! Gotta get my ears on some of that music someday

[@lytyllpype3864]

so happy you liked my music =) my band and I are working on some recordings but in the meantime you can listen to the whole song here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqLdh51_qNqoas0&ab_channel=lytyllpype

@@lytyllpype3864 OMG! I actually thought I was never gonna be able to listen to it, as there was only your name on the video. Thanks a lot for answering, I'll subscribe and be looking forward for your work. Keep it up!
