Chords for The Drop: Jonas Aden listens to Talent Pool demos

Hey guys, this [Ebm] is Jonas Aiden and [F] you're watching The Drop. _
_ [Dm] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ [A] _
[G] All right, let's start [F] off with the first track.
This is All I Want by [Bb] Don Khan.
_ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _
[N] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [Ab] That's actually [C] really impressive.
I did not expect that.
That was really good.
The [F] melodies were good.
Maybe you could just switch up of the melody on the last part.
I feel when the [Eb] vocal came in again, it could have been a bit more unexpected.
The layering [Gm] in the breaks could have [F] been a bit bigger and maybe add a pad or two.
Some shakers and stuff just to fill it up a bit more.
Some more white noise in the drop.
But that was impressive.
You [Gm] have a really good ear for melody.
That was really cool.
[G] All right, let's go on to the next track.
This is Maze by Chefs.
[Gb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ _ [B] _ _ [Gbm] _ _
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ [Bb] _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
[F] _ _ Damn, that was pretty creative.
When you have all these vocal chops and stuff, it usually gets boring.
But you managed to do it in a more creative way, which I really appreciated.
You could use a longer melody, a bit more specific one.
But it was really cool.
It had that unique twist to it.
The breaks could be a bit more filled up with a little bit more of a build maybe.
But the idea is really, really good.
The bass sounds good and the reverse as you did.
Really good.
I think the final verdict is it was creative, [Gb] which was really good.
I would work on lifting up the build part a bit more and making it a more whole melody.
[Bm] This is [B] Together by Nico. _
_ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
_ _ [Dbm] _ _ [Bm] _ _ [Em] _ _
_ [E] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
[B] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [E] _ [A] _
_ _ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ [Db] _ _
[B] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [E] _ [A] _
_ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [Gbm] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _
_ It's a really happy [Gb] and uplifting sort of song.
It's got nice chords.
I would maybe try and switch up the first chord on the [G] second time around just to make [A] the song move a bit more.
Maybe introduce the drop melody more in the breaks. _
I think the build up could be a bit shorter [Bm] maybe.
I don't [Gb] think it might not be necessary to have it that long unless you introduce the [F] main melodies a bit more.
I think the snare was standing out a bit too much.
[G] But yeah, it was _ surprisingly well produced.
Solid melodies.
And yeah, good job.
[Gb] So I just listened to a couple of tracks.
I was super impressed.
I'm going to go after and listen to some more in the talent pool.
I encourage you guys to send me more stuff there as [Ab] we're going to do more reviews of that here on the drop.
I was super impressed.
It was really fun.
And yeah, thank you [Dm] for watching.
