Charlotte: ohhh--- so many times Peyton: woah that delayed like four times
UMu: So you're about
to react to a band called The Rose they consist of four members one on drum set one on guitar and vocals one on keyboard
and vocals and another one on the bass
they debuted in
2017 and this is their second comeback ever it's called 'Baby' and it was written by all the members, 'Baby' is off their first mini
album called Void which they described saying that since all of them have some form of emptiness within them
this album depicts that emptiness and you can hear the desperation in the main vocalist's voice when he is singing Emiel: three two one
Stephen: that's a cool shot Emiel: yeah
Henry: [gasp] fender jazz bass!?!?! that's a really good bass
LIndsey: interesting voice
Peyton: definitely some desperation in there. sounds like me when i try to play Mahler five
Charlotte: anybody playing Mahler? Peyton: yeah
Elizabeth: I see what you mean by avoiding tonic, it's really hard to get a sense of where we are
Hugo: oh
yeah that bassline
Stephen: i like the fact that when it's like
At least with like the drum set, i don't know like this is probably the chorus i like the fact that they're not doing
just Like straight 2 & 4 it's actually a tom groove that like plays around with it, i don't know like there's not like a back
that's really really cool because no one ever does that
Isaac: my word! sounds good,(Kevin: yeah) that low bass
Isaac: He's frustrated--- Kevin: now everything's reversed. it's a reverse piano
Charlotte: I said, that is a hot stressed man
Katie: *sings* 4, 5...that's why i thought it was lydian (mode) it's because i was thinking
Katie: tonic two three four five if that's actually the leading tone cause that's in this key
ok
Stephen: but what they've got is like nice and syncopated yeah
but like their- that's really cool
and that adds too to like add that desperation feel that you were talking about with like...cuz it's heavier
Emiel: definitly
and the electric guitar line is really nice
LIndsey: is he okay? i wanna go give him a hug
oh, my god he's like having a breakdown in all orange hallway and i wanna just go give him a hug
Fiona: oh i really like this
Hugo: He has a unique voice and i like it
James: these are all really creative bass songs
well they've they're really involved
oh
there we go
Peyton: wow that delayed like four times Charlotte: like so many times
Stephen: Not that it's like i would say like experimental maybe but it's just, I like that it's different you know
Hugo: he went into super drive
Hugo: oh there we go, now we're in overdrive
Henry: i like the little vocal harmonies that just happened, that guy, that's good
Isaac: dang
Peyton: "Mr.Stark, i don't feel so good."
Charlotte: I, uh-
Charlotte: I really gotta stop finding distressed men attractive
Lindsey: Wow but also that was awesome Fiona: that's how he ended up there Umu: did you notice anything happening that hasn't happened for a while?
Davis: I'm gonna be-
lindsey: NOOOOOO Davis: WHAT
oh the disappearing women umu: *dying* you didn't point it out. I thought you didn't see it! F: I didn't even notice
Lindsey: i didn't even think about it, it's been so long i didnt, i was so focused on how cool the music was cause like fiona: wow
Fiona: i tried to figure out if they were bathrooms but they weren't
Umu: yeah so what'd you think about that song overall musically Fiona: i thought his voice was super cool and had a good bassline
and i liked the
drums in the middle like built anticipation with the cool guitar like instrument-wise and voice wise and bassline-wise like
Lindsey: if i had known, we were going to be reacting to this i would have worn my shirt with the rose on it
To show my support
Because that was really good Henry: okay i don't necessarily know if it should have been longer but i wish that it had grooved like that
earlier. it was missing that. it was really good like the drummer like
came into it a little bit but before just kind of felt like hollow
i wish there was more
rhythm guitar the drums sort of filled out the texture a little bit it was really good but like Umu: the chorus feels like the
Pre-chorus henry: yeah well that's exactly is it it feels like, the reason it feels like a pre-chorus to me it feels like it's about to build
and then just kind of stops
Umu: it goes down Henry: and then when they get to the third one, it's like actually pretty groovous
which is like what you want. but like before it's just kind of like okay all right i'm with you, I follow
What?
so ya. I don't want that.
UMu: i think i think that is the whole purpose of the song Elizabeth: well i think
previous kpop that i've seen has been about the group and about harmony and
combining the voices of all the people but because there's kind of one
lead singer it was and even the video was just like very focused on him so i feel like the
Texture of the song was really sparse so he could pay attention to him specifically and get a sense of
His voice which i mean if you're not
interested in that i can see why it's frustrating
like i feel like us as classical musicians are more interested in like the whole of the group and the
groove
and the rhythm and the texture more than we are about 'let's just listen' and that's one guy's singing that's the important thing going on
which is what that was about really
Umu: yeah so you're talking about how the rhythm is kind of different from
what
we may hear in a typical one two three four rock beat? can you expand upon that Stephen: yeah sure
So like usually in a rock band especially, or just like pop music in general you always have the bass drum on one and three
and the snare drum on two and four and that's what pushes momentum and like what we just subconsciously come to like
associate with a groove and just innately
Dance too but what's cool here is they don't really do that as much. most of what he does is just 4 on the floor on the bassdrum
in like- in like a two and four beat here, you're feeling if you have a
bar of four beats
you're feeling it in sections of two beats
And then with here though because there's only four there's like not a backbeat you're feeling each beat. it's like a really nice like quarter note
feel. he does a two and four group that's like more syncopated and interesting in like the second verse
but, the chorus is just like this really sick tom groove
To go off of like where it's that quarter note feel it's it's just like really different and innovative and it's like a new color
that you don't hear very often
Isaac: The use of like like if you if you just take if you don't take a key you just take the motif
five six one five six one
if you just move it like that (Kevin: uh huh, exactly) there's that, and then there's just like this
like that evolves and you i think you you you pointed out where it's like it would go in reverse, great way to
transform motifs and then there's like the low bass that's just like if you listen to a lot of classical era music
They do stick to five- one but like you can make five- one sound fantastic for the whole piece so like that's like the really low bass
they just do [demonstrates]
So like G to D it just keeps going and going and then they vary it up to the point where it's just like wow there's so much
Tension release tension release and you're just like i don't know it's such an emotional rollercoaster but also it's so
Evenly balanced to the point where it's just like wow i'm actually happy at the end
the ending wasn't like this weird none cadence, it kind of just ends it a predominant it's just like oh but there is
Kevin: yeah, well it's kind of cool because the chorus feels like the part with the most build-up
that's actually the chorus
sometimes the bass is the
loudest part you get boom boom boom you just suddenly hear it and all the other instruments are down and i like how it
explores all these sonic
worlds they're like different worlds colliding in this but not in a bad way
in a great way Katie: i was for like three quarters of the song i was just like intently like analyzing i was like alright
Same thing okay
alright and I'm like wait is this just the entire
song and you were just like [yes]
I thought it was in the lydian because i thought it was raised four scale degree but it was actually just leading tone if the song is actually
in that key. idk.
that was cool because i never got bored of it. which proves that you don't need a ton of different chords in your chord progression
To make it interesting it's a lot about the
texture and rhythm and
melodies
Jarod: yeah, the performance like the video really sold the song which is cool it's very like power like powerful intense
really energetic and then they had the silences in the perfect space and when they
reintroduced the stuff there'd be like silence
and they went right back into it that little synthesizer interlude was so cool because it's something you haven't heard and it serves as like a little
bridge a little bit of glue that you know
Helps you slide into the next part or just slide back i guess because it's a return
but this was really cool piece
Hugo: OH Man that bass line was dope as shit, his voice was really unique the other guy's voice was really good too
it's oh man there's something about it James: i like the little little little eggs that they put in..not literal literal eggs. like the figurative eggs okay
little little egg babies that they that they put into the actual song itself so the piano part the dun dun dun
dun dun dun dun
sometimes they'll replace that with a synth
that has a weird effect on it where it just it sounds like it's playing backwards where it's like
They'll just put it in there for a couple of measures and then it'll go back to piano
and it seems pretty random and that i like the edm
synth that thing was put in there that that they put in maybe two or three times yeah it was yeah really cool in
terms of all the instruments
everyone i could hear everything that was going on nothing was being drowned out all of them were super duper involved and yeah I loved the voice as well
Umu: so yeah, what do you think
overall musically and maybe how through his voice or through the music it sounded desperate and empty
Peyton: well he had a little whimper vibrato
it was like [demonstrates] and it was like..it was kinda
light and feathery he was very quick you know and like more
the quicker the vibratos, kind of gives it more like agitated feeling so like--- Charlotte: like you're about to cry Peyton: it induces stress and like
Peyton: The sound and kind of like inspires you to like sort of.. aw man something's about
To happen. and you're like...those guys feeling, so serious and also the way he was like running around and just like hitting the walls
ACHOO
basically just how angry he was the whole music video. it was very i dont know, it matched his sound
