Megadeth's Trust Drum Intro was used in two other songs but just because of that, you can hate them all. It's how the entire song sounds not just a part because in the end all songs will sound the same if you just listen to a part.
while i ABSOLUTELY agree with your premise that all pop music is just a recreation of itself.....this was a pretty week approach at delivering that message.
other than slating linkin park for use of the same sounding drum loop the most you've done is found similer drum loops and wow clever you found some similer songs it happends sometimes musicians dont relise it sounds the same so really try alittle harder next time you post a video stating things we know
I actually don't get the Linkin Park thing? I don't know but some of the songs you listed don't sound that much alike. Lol, maybe I just didn't pay enough attention, or you over analyze.
There is a book where there is everything in it to explain what kind of notes and music people like. When it comes to Kanye West and hip hop - that is sampling and a whole new other thing.
k comparing two songs from the same artist? no shit it sounds the same its from the same band. plus you're not even playing the whole song. so you're wrong anyways.
so why don't you stop listening to this mainstream/pop shit music if you're so sick of hearing the same thing over and over again?
dont ever take mainstream stuff seriously. or media. or anything the general public gives too much attention to. learn to be unique and individual rather than like everyone else.
the "with or without you" progression, I V VI IV, in music speak, is about the most used progression ever.. notable exceptions here are glycerine (bush), pictures of you (the last goodnight), crash and burn (savage garden), torn (natalie imruglia), when you come around (greenday) although the timing is a little different.., that was just off the top of my head~ with some research there are probably dozens
Although it's pretty clear that you're a consumer of music, and some of the examples aren't neccessarily good examples, (i.e., No One should've been compared with "Where is the Love", since it's almost a direct rip, and probably intentional) the mash-up at the end was AWESOME and EPIC. You really should try doing mash-ups more often. =) I'm replaying it over and over.
also, you do realize that all music. i mean ALL MUSIC is recycled, right?
all of it. it always has been and always will be. thats because in each key, there are only so many variations of notes that sound good together. after only a few thousand songs, your going to wind up with alot of stuff being similar
Linkin Park gets to much beef for their music. Look, Linkin Park is a band, right? So they make music, right? And as a band, they have a certain style, Right? So isn't there, I don't know a REASON for them to have a bit of similarities in songs? And of the others, I'm sure you could dredge up any modern day alternative band, and put them against some other modern rock group. It's alternative, it all sounds the same.
I know what you mean. Linkin Park does that because they like the beats. I heard it from the source because of a very old interveiw I saw with them in it.
It all boils down to the fact that music is an industry to make money, and I guarantee that those who like Linkin Park will like more of the same Linkin Park. If the current theme of the day is Snow Patrol, then if you're a music producer, you're going to start making music that sounds roughly the same. People buy it and the same crap is recreated, reboxed, and resold to people who have no taste in music.
Are you shitting me? Have you forgotten about sharps and flats? Do you have any fucking idea how many combinations there are if you just randomly generated notes in key for two measures with
Again, you still gotta make it sound good. Plus, w/ all the groups out there, signed and unsigned, stuff is gonna sound the same, either purposely or coincidently.
Almost all modern music is based off of jazz and blues, so it can tend to sound the same. Great point about the red hot chilli peppers stealing from Mary Jane's Last Dance.
ok sorry for all the comments but that wasnt a good combination to mix crawling and numb. and everyone knows with or without you is similar to shadow of the day. the thing is songs always tend to resemble another especially within the same band. if u listened to more you would realize that all pop music can be strung together. the ones that are intertwined with hip hop which is why its so annoying
Those are poor comparisons, you've just noticed certain musical features and composing techniques within songs and found other songs that have the same features or techniques, this isn't copying, the Kanye West song, Alicia Keys song and Mortal Kombat theme bear pracitcally no similarities, they just have the same beat for a short while.
what this man meant to say about the last 3 songs is that they have the same chord progression, but didn't have the words to say it. it is true that the songs are extremely different apart from the chord progressuin, so i don't suspect the artists of copying. + the 4 chord progression is well knonw to be included in more than half the pop music hits. just search on youtube "four chord song" or something like that.
its not always the producer that makes the sound though. thats for pop hits. like in linkin park, they make the music themselves. if you watch the making of their albums. they put effort into them and the producer just helps them achieve what they want by telling them what they thought of it. this is what i could figure out
@scitek not at all, the only way to produce truly original music would be to give birth to a baby in a cabin and lock him in there with a guitar, everyone is influenced by someone or something else, no two songs are the same
i agree with everything, but there is an undeniable fail in this video. you say crawling and numb sound the same, but there are clearly differences. you fail to realize the difference between sounding the same and playing in the same key. you can take any songs of the same genre or band that are in the same key and put them together.
I don't fail to mention anything. I clearly state "Which uses a Daft Punk song," right after the song is played. Learn to read and you'll see that. And he didn't "steal" anything, it's called sampling.
on the first and second case is probably because is a rythmin base (I´m not sure if it´s called like that on english) and it´s very common as the drums have a kind of standar rythms as well as the bass.
Yeah, unfortunately, I can't change the video since I lost it, but I updated the information to the right so you can see the songs if you're unfamiliar with them. Thanks for the suggestion.
Aw. I like Linkin Park but I have to admit you're right. So observant. Anywayz, towards the end of you're video, I was expecting there to be a scary image or something to pop up on the screen. You know the kind of video I'm talking about? the ones that have you listen closely and look at the screen then scare the sh!t out of you? LOL

The problem with Numb and crawling is that its the same tempo, same chords and same style. So they ripped off themselves.

Most bands learn from each other.
