The Music Breakdown
Kabir Anirudh Samsi

1 week ago
What makes music sound the way it does? Why do we feel happy when we listen to this song, or want to dance in a certain way to this piece? What effect does this key, this beat, this chord progression have on the song? What did the artist do to make a song sound the way it does? In this podcast, I explore various concepts in music theory, history and such and how they influence the music we listen to. From key signatures to chord progressions to basslines, I try to demystify how these concepts work and how they make their way into the music we listen to.

Reimagining A Song Across Musical Genres: "Message in a Bottle"

Have you ever listened to a song and wondered, "how would this sound in a different genre?" There are so many different kinds of music - Western Classical, Jazz, Rock, Pop, Hindustani Classical - and each one, apart from having very different notational styles, gives off a certain vibe. But is it possible to take a song from one of these styles, but reinvent it in another? 

That's what we are doing in this episode. We are taking The Police's "Message in a Bottle", a 1979 Rock classic, and reimagining it, but as a classical String Trio! Listen as I break the song into different musical segments, reimagine each one, and rebuild the song with the same tune, but a completely different vibe - the sound of a Classical piece.
