http://storytelling.di.se/max-martin/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook

This might be a really hard question, but how, exactly, do you build a song?
"All these questions are really hard!"
Do you work chronologically – do you begin with the intro?
""Again, it depends. Lately, I've written a lot of music where there's already a set background. There's already a completed track. In those cases, it's more about working with the dramaturgy of the melody. It should never get repetitive. I like it when a song is like a journey, building up along the way. That they start out smaller than they end. Along the trip, you add elements that make the listener less likely to tire. Then, at the end, euphoria."

"That's really true for all songs. If you listen to the first, second and third chorus of a song, they don't sound the same. It's the same melody and all that but what really happens is that the energy changes. It's all about getting the listener to keep his or her concentration. When I play a song to someone and ask "So how do you like this?", I don't care all that much about what they say. What I really pay attention to is how they act, their body language.
People who lose their concentration give themselves away very quickly. If they start fiddling with their phones as the second verse kicks in, there may be something about the tune that wasn't good enough. Something also happens when I listen as if with other people's ears. I get nervous and think to myself, 'Shit, this part is a bit too slow'."

'' Lately, I've written a lot of music where there's already a set background. There's already a completed track. In those cases, it's more about working with the dramaturgy of the melody. It should never get repetitive.  ''

And later:

''Another theory is that you can also sing the chorus melody as a verse. For instance, take I Wanna Be Your Lover with Prince. The verse and chorus of that song are exactly the same. But as a listener, you don't really notice since the energy of the chorus is completely different compared to the verse (he sings like Prince to show his point). Once the chorus comes, you feel like you've heard it before. And you have! You've heard it in the verse. It automatically creates a sense of familiarity''

I couldn't find a direct quote from Max or Shellback. But since Dr. Luke is one of Max's students, I'll quote him from the days that he was working with Max (I know Max or Shellback have said something similar).

So, it's the king's speech theory of pop music:   ''Yeah, repeat it, repeat the same thing''

So to what exactly is Max revering to when he says it should never get repetitive?
Also, would Max's way of working differ now that he writes to track instead of melody first like they used to do all the time?   I always find my melody's get predictable when I write to track.   Then again, my name is not Max Martin.
Title: Re: Max wins Polar Music Prize AMAZING VIDEO INTERVIEW
Post by: sonnyblack2000 on February 16, 2016, 07:14:24 PM
There s a delicate balance in songwriting where you want to repeat enough to be memorable but not too much to bore people. The Prince examples are great, both i wanna be your lover, lets go crazy and when doves cry use the same melodies throughout but the arrangement and performance of the music and vocals make it feel different.
As for writing melodies first or to track there s a big difference of course but both can yield good results. The problem to writing to tracks is that a lot of tracks out there (by less capable musicians) tend to have the same chord pattern, so it does forces the melodies around those patterns. The Woldcousins crew have been good at going with different chord patterns, though they do use the common ones as well

QuotePolar Talks proudly presents a master class with Max Martin!

The Polar Talks program on June 15 at Kulturhuset Stadsteatern in Stockholm will be completed by an exclusive session with Max Martin.

In a world exclusive live talk, one of the 2016 Polar Music Prize Laureate discusses with interviewer Jan Gradvall his phenomenal song writing career and perhaps shares some of the secrets of his success. Extracts of songs will be played from Max Martin's 20 year song catalogue and he will comment on how the magic was created.

This master class requires a separate ticket (80 SEK), available through Kulturhuset Stadsteatern.
www.kulturhusetstadsteatern.se (http://www.kulturhusetstadsteatern.se)

Just to make us envious.

Quote
This Thursday Seinabo Sey will perform at the prize ceremony, in front of the Polar Music Prize guests, including Laureates Max Martin and Cecilia Bartoli, and her childhood idols Backstreet Boys.
"To perform in front of Backstreet Boys is not a problem at all, but I might be a bit more nervous meeting them backstage...What would 10-year-old Seinabo have said if she had known about this?"
Seinabo has a strong personal memory of the first time she was invited to the Polar Music Prize Ceremony, in 2014. She was "starstruck by the whole event" and Laureate Peter Sellars' speech moved her deeply. When he said "Music is not just about music, but what is so powerful about music is that it is about everything else in the world...", time almost stopped, she says. She understood exactly what he meant, and realized she had the exact same look on things, she just hadn't put it into words yet. Seinabo thinks that Peter Sellars' words explain so well why she is doing what she is doing now - music. Music exists to describe what life is all about, and is a tool to express and feel all components of life.
Peter Sellars' words have followed her during the past hectic years of her career, both in Sweden and internationally. We are so happy that she will be standing on our stage on Thursday, performing "As long as you love me", a massive hit made world famous by... yes, Backstreet Boys.
You can listen to Peter Sellars' speech here: https://youtu.be/s0tf49ZLuoQ.

Haha no on the off chance of ever getting the possibility to ever play them music or something, felt like I don't wanna be recognized as the "fanboy" who "cried" and "kissed" Shellback's feet (which was the initial gut reaction...)  ;D

But seriously, no just some snippets (nothing better than on the #maxmartin hastag on instagram) but yeah it was all recorded and will apparently be shown on TV later :)
Title: Re: Max wins Polar Music Prize AMAZING VIDEO INTERVIEW
Post by: turnaround on June 16, 2016, 12:02:09 AM
Great. I like the snippet when they play IWITW and Max wonders if the BSB are also in the audience.

On instagram are more pictures of people that met Max.

Max looks so cool in the pics and comes across so humble. But I like that he is more in the lime light the lately.

Btw.

I love the idea of Max going on tour with all the hits he wrote and is featured on stage by artists who recorded them and fellow songwriters.

Max seems to fully enjoy it. I guess next to him sit his wife and Doris (Day). Next to them Kevin, Howie and Brian.

Many familiar faces in the audience.  Andreas Carlsson, Per Magnusson, David Kreuger.
Jessica Folcker was also there:

Here are the Backstreet Boys presenting the awards to Max. The speech is emotional.

OH MY.

There are so many highlights. Alexander Kronlund and Doris (as a surprise) singing. Denniz was mentioned of course. Super footage.

Post by: the3rd on June 16, 2016, 09:19:05 PM
That was huge. Doris, who there has literally not been one single picture of anywhere, is suddenly on stage singing live on prime time TV.

Hopefully this doesnt mean that they will be "familiar faces" from now on though, since Max has tried for so many years to stop that from happening. But one will need to be in the limelight repeatedly for that to happen so they are probably in the clear :)
Title: Re: Max wins Polar Music Prize AMAZING VIDEO INTERVIEW
Post by: turnaround on June 16, 2016, 09:30:23 PM
This is all too much for me to handle. I hope all is available  online later because there were so many highlights.

The C shirt Denniz was wearing in the scene. Max almost crying. Doris surprise performance with Alexander Kronlund. Jessica Folcker with Andreas Carlsson.

I could go on and on but you all should see for yourself.

Yes, I wondered where Tom Talomaa and Alexandra were too! I suppose he can't thank everyone by name.

Yes, Max must not want to take sides re Dr Luke. Also, maybe he wanted to only thank the Swedes and his current team. It was nice he thanked Rami and that Rami was there - I guess they really don't hate each other! haha.

Oh people.. for Christ sake. What are you, a cult? I came here because I appreciate Max but he is not Master of the universe but a skilled songwritter, one of so many during last 70 years.  You put little melody, add some lyrics and apply a few rules and that's it, you hope for the best. Why all those Swedes are so pompous, probably the same kind of people that belittled Cheiron like they belittled ABBA in their time.

BSB speech was especially pathetic at Polar prize. First it was Jesus then Max came to Earth. It was totally inappropriate and syrupy to the spectators outside Sweden. To me it was simply silly.

A show full of hipocrisy. First we don't appreciate what you do, now we all suddenly adore you. Or maybe we adore your money. But we still don't appreciate other musicians in Sweden.

Get real, it's only a pop music. Swedes are really special kind of people, I cannot say I understand them fully.
