UMU: 365... 247
HENRY: 365... *laughs*
Wait, it's 365, 24/7
UMU: 365 days, 24/7 I think about you (HENRY: Every single day)
H: Every day baby, every hour let's go, DAY6
U: DAY6. I think about you 365 24/7 (H: Where's my headphones?)
U: 3 2 1
U: This album is- it's, listening to it is such an experience because you have NO idea what the next genre is gonna be
H: Ooh!
U: Pop!
U: *sings rhythm* triplet triplet triplet uh
H: Ooh!
U: Is that Sungjin?
U: Three different vibes
Though we brought back the summer *sings rhythm* rhythm in... the drums
H: I can't catch that
H: *sings rhythm* (U: Okay!) They're doing that- it's kinda syncopated
H: Or um, it's like a hemiola (U: Right) [sings] "365, 24/7" right?
H: *sings rhythm*
H: *grunts rhythm* U: Jae!
U: Oh
U: THERE'S that low brass synth! H: Oh
U: Summer kinda reggaeton songs, they tend to have low brass synth
It's really quiet in the back
And then we have two different synths, one pans...
DOWOON! Okay, son!!
Okay son!
H: This evokes a lot of South American music *sings rhythm*
H: You hear it in a lot of Shakira, right? (U: You know what?)
U: This song reminds me KARD's sound
H: *sings rhythm*
U: Nice, delaying downbeat H: *sings rhythm*
H: Yeah, it's a very South American feeling
U: *sings bassline* H: Ready? Ready?
H: Just sing with me! U: *continues to sing bassline*
U: Yeah we have a synth in the right channel and the guitar part... in the left... channel
U: And they're not in the same rhythm
So we have so many different rhythmic textures going on right now
U: Did you hear their low brass part? It goes like *sings*
U: It like fades in, it's like *sings* H: Kinda, yeah
H: I wanted to explain what I heard with the... U: Okay
H: Yeah yeah, so what I meant by this hemiola here, was in a four...
H: Focus focus focus (U: Oh, it's not in autofocus) I'm so sorry
H: In a 4/4 bar, you have 8 straight eighth notes, and it sounds like *sings rhythm*
Well, they they put the words [sings] "365, 24/7" in pairs of 3
So *sings rhythm*
But the rest of the instruments are still playing it straight, *sings rhythm* rhythm
So it cut- it pops out as "Ooh, this stands out from the rest of the stuff that we've been hearing"
And it fits that it's at the end of a vocal line, it makes you really pay attention
And you're gonna keep singing that along, [sings] "365, 24/7"
Sick. 3 + 3 + 2
U: It's sick. We're gonna keep this on auto-focus because I'm too lazy to change it back
H: And we're back in focus U: [sings] "You can see clearly now, the fuzz is gone"
U: "Not Mine", 3 2... 1
U: I did not press play. 3 2 1
U: Okay, synthesized strings, I see you!
H: Ooh, *sings sound* U: Oh wow, yeah
U: I like the sound of those strings
U: Yeah, a little tremolo
U: This is sexy H: The slide into it, the ease into is so cool
U: Slower harmony
U: It's speeding up
U: Ooh H: I love that
H: Did you notice they went from singing real legato lines (U: Yeah) with the staccato and the violins
And then it was all washy, the guitar started driving
And now once you hit the chorus, THEY'RE giving it choppiness while inside you hear this kind of organ sound that kind of *makes sound* wave
That's SUCH a cool contrast
U: Oh
H: This is cool as hell
H: Oh! Whoo!
U: Ooh (H: *sings*) Chandlewoman has a TON of reverb (??????)
U: Mmmmm
U: Oh!! (H: Triplets!) Triplet triplet OH!
H: Ah
U: This song deserves interpretive dancing
H: This song deserves full orchestra *laughs*
U: Yeah. 'Cause it like, it takes one- like, two two whole beats getting everything in, until it finally hits on two
U: Oh, harmonies
U: Octave lower
U: Pizzicato!
U: [squeals] YOUNGK, STOP!
H: Oh- oh yes, we have more
H: Oh (U: YES!) That blues 3, blues third
H: *sings*
H: Ugh U: Oh and it didn't resolve! *sings*
U: That was also so good H: You know how it resolves? With the audience just cheering U: [laughing] Oh, with the audience just cheering
H: *sings ending* U/H: *screams* [laughter]
U: Yo, okay so that melody reminded me of an American song
U: Did it remind you of an American song? H: Yeah
U: But what one was it? (H: I dunno) That was killing me the whole time
U: But anyways, yeah no that was great, loved the string part, how they used such a staccato line
And it was so jolty and syncopated, and they moved to pizzicato in the bridge
That lined up perfectly with the plucked- was it plucked guitar?
Yes. Yeah, it wasn't strummed, it wasn't *pshhh* it was like *sings*
*slaps thigh* UGH! Okay moving on
Moving on to "Emergency"
*sings*
3 2...
U: Do you wanna listen to the song?
H: Oh, yes U: *laughs* 3 2 1!
U: Warning, warning, war-
H: IT'S MARIO KART! *laughs*
U: *coughs* I just choked on my saliva
H: It's turned out just Mario Kart!
H: Yes! U: *laughs* *screams*
H: I'm like, I lost-
U: EUGH
H: Same!
U: Dowoon???
U: YoungK
H: It's- *gibberish*
U: I feel like I'm gonna pass out
U: They're telling me to breathe out- in and out, but I'm forgetting to breathe in and out H: Same, I'm just like *gags*
H: What's going on, what's here? What's this? What's happening?
U: *laughs*
U: There's so much rhythmically happening,
texturally happening,
U: harmonically happening H: *sings*
H: They totally took inspiration from Mario Kart, right? U: Contrast between sections
U: Sorry what? H: I I said, they totally took inspiration from Mario Kart,, right?
H: Like the *sings* U: REALLY?
U: Sure (H: Yeah?) Sure
H: So many interesting Mario- I mean, surely a lot of you are gonna hear this too
But it's totally screaming that for me, which is great for a racing kind of feeling
U: It's just- it's funk
H: God, the bass in this!
U: Slap bass H: It's so virtuosic, it's...
U: No drug works. Well, I mean this is- the song is now my drug
U: And there's multiple brass sounds
U: And that heartbeat?
U: Oh, and there's a heartbeat! (H: Brrrrah, I love that)
U: It had the beat sound... that happens when your heart stops working, but then it had the heartbeat sound
What the fuck? What the fuck? What the fuck?
Well that's going on the Classical Musicians React series, you'll be able to hear it a second time *laughs*
H: It's too hot, too hot, too hot
U: It's too hot, let me *laughs*
H: Ugh YoungK *fans self*
U: Yeah *laughs*
U: Can you tell their voices apart? H: Uh I can tell who it is now, just in the end
H: But man, you give me these lyrics, I would've never guessed this kind of song
I would have never guessed this sort of a sound to come out of it
This needs another take another time
(U: Oh yeah) H: It will totally go on the main channel. This is so- (U: Yeah)
U: Yeah, you'll hear it a second time (H: Wow, they're SO COOL) And you'll notice so much more, there's so-
U: Honestly- H: I'm gonna listen to this whole thing on my way to school
(H: and my classes) U: YO, I like bought this album before I knew what I was gonna sound like
U: And I'm like, "I don't think I'm gonna regret this" HELL NAW
U: So far, I think this is DAY6's best album H: Yeah?
U: So far, I think this is at least my favorite DAY6 album H: Meliora!
U: And I love literally like, almost all their songs H: Meliora~
U: Oh my freaking god. Okay ready?
