Who's Writing the Hits? Q3-2012 Hit Songs Deconstructed Deconstructing Today's Hits for Songwriting Success http://reports.hitsongsdeconstructed.com Who’s Writing the Hits? Q3-2012 The Hit Songwriting Champion of Q3-2012 The Top Collaborative Partnerships Of Q3-2012 The #1 Hit Club of Q3-2012 The Top Pop Songwriters of Q3-2012 All Songs & Songwriters During the third quarter of 2012 (July – September), 76 credited songwriters were involved in crafting the 21 top 10 Hit Pop songs that landed on the Billboard Pop Songs Chart during the period, averaging 3.6 writers per song. Of those songwriters, 9 were involved in co-writing two or more hits, with one of them dethroning Dr. Luke as the “undisputed champion of hit songwriting” after a two quarter reign. That champion is Johan Karl Schuster, (aka Shellback), who saw FIVE of his co-writes landing in the Billboard Pop Songs top 10 during the quarter! THE BEST OF THE BEST These songs and “songwriting teams” stood out from the pack based on overall chart performance and superior craft. Team “Somebody That I Used To Know” (Bonfa, Backer) This song proved that anything is possible today’s music industry. Backer and Bonfa crafted an atmospheric, evocative, infectious Alt/Rock song that went against the grain of everything that you hear in the mainstream, and it took off like wildfire. To-date Somebody That I Used To Know has hit #1 on 35 charts in 26 countries. Team “We Are Young” (Dost, Antonoff, Bhasker) Yet another song that totally went against the grain of all things mainstream, these songwriters crafted an infectious, anthemic Alt/Rock song that skyrocketed to the top of the charts with with a little help from effective licensing campaigns (specifically Glee and the Chevrolet Super Bowl ad) . To-date, We Are Young has hit #1 on 18 charts in 13 countries. Team “Call Me Maybe” (Jepsen, Ramsay, Crowe) 1 / 13 Hit Songs Deconstructed Deconstructing Today's Hits for Songwriting Success http://reports.hitsongsdeconstructed.com Deemed the “summer anthem of 2012,” Call Me Maybe proved that simplistic, ultra-infectious melodies coupled with clever lyrics (and a little help from Justin Bieber) can turn a song into a world-wide phenomenon. To-date, Call Me Maybe has hit #1 on 20 charts in 19 countries. Team “Payphone” (Levine, Malik, Levin, Thomaz, Omelio, Schuster) Very few bands consistently churn out ultra-infectious, memorable singles that are predestined to reach the top of the charts. Maroon 5 is without a doubt one of those bands, and Payphone is definitely one of those songs thanks to all of the top-notch songwriters involved. To-date, Payphone has hit #1 on 9 charts in 8 countries. Team “Wide Awake” (McKee, Walter, Perry, Gottwald, Sandberg) Most people know her as an all-star performer, but what a lot of people don’t know is that first and foremost Katy Perry is a top-rate songwriter, and she has a knack for assembling the perfect songwriting teams for maximum results (just reference all of her #1?s from Teenage Dream!). Wide Awake is a perfect case-in-point, combining ultra-infectious, memorable melodies, emotionally charged/imagery laden lyrics and an outstanding vocal performance that provided Katy’s audience with an evocative listening experience that connected on a deep level. To-date, Wide Awake has hit #1 on 7 charts in 5 countries. SUB-GENRE BREAKDOWN: Q3-2012 Dance/Club influenced Pop songs had 21 credited writers appearing on 5 songs, averaging 4.2 writers per song. Let’s Go - (3 Writers) Scream - (4 Writers) Starships – (5 Writers) Titanium - (4 Writers) Where Have You Been – (5 Writers) Rock influenced Pop songs had 7 credited writers appearing on 3 songs, averaging 2.3 writers per song. Everybody Talks – (2 Writers) Somebody That I Used To Know – (2 Writers) We Are Young - (3 Writers) Songs that possessed a Mix of primary sub-genre influences had 31 credited writers appearing on 9 songs, averaging around 3.4 writers per song. 2 / 13 Hit Songs Deconstructed Deconstructing Today's Hits for Songwriting Success http://reports.hitsongsdeconstructed.com Blow Me (One Last Kiss) – Pop/Rock, Dance – (2 Writers) Call Me Maybe - Teen Pop, Dance – (3 Writers) Give Your Heart A Break – Straight-Up Pop, Dance, Ballad – (2 Writers) Good Time - Straight-Up Electro Pop, Dance – (3 Writers) Lights - Straight-Up Electro Pop, Dance – (3 Writers) One More Night - Straight-Up Pop, Reggae – (4 Writers) Payphone - Straight-Up Pop, Dance, Hip Hop – (6 Writers) Want You Back - Straight-Up Electro Pop, Dance – (2 Writers) Whistle – Straight-Up Pop, Hip Hop – (6 Writers) “Other” influenced Pop Songs (those that didn’t fall into the primary categories of Dance, Hip Hop, Rock or R&B) had 16 credited writers appearing on 4 songs, averaging 4 writers per song. As Long As You Love Me – Dubstep, R&B – (5 Writers) We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together - Straight-Up Pop, Tinge Of Country – (3 Writers) Wide Awake – Electro Pop Ballad – (5 Writers) What Makes You Beautiful - Teen Pop/Rock – (3 Writers) *Note that there weren’t any straight-up R&B/Soul or Hip Hop/Rap songs landing in the top 10 during Q3-2012. ADDITIONAL POINTS TO NOTE Every song that landed in the top 10 during the quarter was a collaboration between two or more songwriters. No one went it alone. Payphone and Whistle featured more credited songwriters than any other top-charting hit during the quarter (6). Somebody That I Used To Know, Blow Me (One Last Kiss), Give Your Heart A Break and Want You Back featured the least amount of songwriters (2). Where Have You Been (Rihanna), Give Your Heart A Break (Demi Lovato), Want You Back (Cher Lloyd) and What Makes You Beautiful (One Direction) were the only songs 3 / 13 Hit Songs Deconstructed Deconstructing Today's Hits for Songwriting Success http://reports.hitsongsdeconstructed.com where the performing artist(s) were NOT credited as writers.

  • Magic Primarycolours Bio APPROVED
    MAGIC! Primary Colours In 2014, Toronto-bred, Los Angeles-based quartet MAGIC! scored the song of the summer with their debut single “Rude” — a buoyant reggae-pop tune that held the No. 1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for six weeks, charted in 41 countries, and sold more than 10 million singles, while its video nears a billion VEVO views. It was a juggernaut that launched their debut album, Don’t Kill the Magic, into the Top 10 and introduced MAGIC!’s breezy sound — a catchy fusion of reggae, pop, and R&B — to the world. “When ‘Rude’ got big, my thought was, ‘What do we do with this?’” says the band’s lead vocalist and chief songwriter Nasri. “So we chased it. We used its success to get us around the world a few times and to turn those 350 million streams into a fan base.” Indeed over the past two years MAGIC! has established itself as a bonafide sensation thanks to its undeniably catchy sound, superlative songwriting, and masterful musicianship. Now the band, which also features guitarist Mark Pelli, drummer Alex Tanas, and bassist Ben Spivak, has released a new single, the Caribbean-tinged “Lay You Down Easy” (featuring Sean Paul), which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Reggae Digital Songs chart and racked up two million Spotify streams and one million VEVO views in its first two weeks. MAGIC! is also gearing up for the July release of its new album, Primary Colours, which finds the band further displaying its reggae influences and pop smarts.

  • Ava Max Could Always Envision Her Dream, She Actually Went out and Made It a Reality on Her Own
    For dreams to manifest into reality, it requires more than a fairytale wish… Truthfully, it takes hustle, heart, and a whole lot of attitude. For as much as Ava Max could always envision her dream, she actually went out and made it a reality on her own. Gathering billions of streams, multiplatinum plaques, award nominations, and acclaim from The New York Times, Rolling Stone, and many more, the international phenomenon projects an unbelievable personal journey into a poignant and punchy pop opus on her full-length debut album, Heaven & Hell [APG/Atlantic Records]. “Manifesting is really important to me,” she explains. “I put positive energy into my music. I know what I want to write, and there’s a story behind each song. It’s all about working hard and putting your heart and soul into it.” She started doing so as a kid. Prior to her birth in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Ava’s parents emigrated from Albania to the United States. Without speaking a word of English, mom and dad held down three jobs each. However, both parents retained a passion for music. Among her earliest memories, Ava recalls her mother—a classically trained vocalist—singing opera aloud. The family relocated to Virginia where they eventually settled in their first house. Along the way, Ava clung to music, listening to Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Shania Twain, to name a few. “At a very young age, I watched my parents really struggle in America,” she admits. “It was tough, and it impacted me in many ways. However, both of them always told me if they could make it here with no language and no money, then I could make it.” While in Virginia, she dove headfirst into music with the family staunchly behind her.

SINOSSI BELIEVE di Justin Bieber regala una visione intima e profonda del tour mondiale dell’artista che ha registrato il tutto esaurito. Non solo vedrete le immagini sbalorditive delle performance dei suoi maggiori successi, ma avrete un biglietto personale per accedere al backstage e scoprire come l’intero tour è stato concepito. Believe garantisce una panoramica esclusiva sulla vita di Justin fuori dal palco ed è un viaggio che ne ripercorre la vita: dagli esordi da perdente che sognava di suonare al Madison Square Garden, fino a diventare la più grande pop star mondiale. “Believe” in Justin Bieber. NOTE DEL REGISTA Ho sempre saputo sin da quando finimmo “Never Say Never” nel 2011, che la storia di Justin Bieber non sarebbe finita. Avevo la sensazione che il capitolo successivo della sua vita sarebbe stato ancora più convincente dell’inizio della sua storia, ma non avrei mai pensato di essere di nuovo io a raccontarlo. Quando, qualche anno dopo, mi arrivò l’invito di Justin a seguirlo in tour per realizzarne un film, presi al volo questa opportunità.

  • Swedish Pop Mafia: How a Culturally Conservative Effort in the 1940S Backfired to Create the Greatest Engine of Pop Music in the World
    Swedish Pop Mafia: How a culturally conservative effort in the 1940s backfired to create the greatest engine of pop music in the world BY WHET MOSER • March 24, 2014 • At some point over the last 15 years—sometime, say, between the 1999 release of “I Want It That Way” by the Backstreet Boys and last year’s “Roar” by Katy Perry—it became an inescapable fact that if you want to understand American pop music, you pretty much have to understand Sweden. Songwriters and producers from Stockholm have buttressed the careers of Lady Gaga, Madonna, Usher, Avril Lavigne, Britney Spears, The Backstreet Boys, Pitbull, Taylor Swift, One Direction, Maroon 5, Kelly Clarkson, and any number of other artists you’ve probably listened to while dancing, shopping, making out, or waiting on hold over the past decade. (And it’s not just American pop music that has Scandinavian fingerprints all over it: When Azerbaijan won the Eurovision contest in a 2011 upset, they did it with a song written for them by two Swedes.) If Americans are aware of this phenomenon, it is probably because they’ve heard about the legendary Swedish producer and songwriter Max Martin. There are any number of ways to express Martin’s ubiquity, but here’s one: From 2010 to 2011, the pop idol Katy Perry spent an unprecedented 69 consecutive weeks in the Billboard top 10, surpassing the previous record-holder, the 1990s Swedish group Ace of Base, by four months. But the milestone was far more of a testament to Martin’s staying power than Perry’s: Not only did he help produce and write all but one of Perry’s record- breaking string of hits, but he began his career as a producer for Ace of Base.
