a tiny clock about Pearl's album (self.rupaulsdragrace)

iamanasare you faux real? が 投稿

So as I stan, I purchased Pearl's album, and as I was listening to Hustler (the best track the album imo) and The Club Goes Pop, I had this unshakable feeling that I've heard them before, either in a sample or something. then it hit me, as a music producer myself, when I was starting up I used Magix Music Maker and it's loops and soundpools to make my music, and then I opened up my old desktop and went through the soundpools and whaddya know, the vocals for Hustler and The Club Goes Pop are actually vocal loops. So I was like hmmmm I wonder if Pearl used any other loops from Magix... and as I listened to the album carefully and went through all the loops, I can confirm that +50% of the album is from Magix Music Maker Loops for beginners. plsdon'tkillme

Hilarious thing is, I don't even think that's necessarily horrific criticism. A lot of contestant released tracks are below the equivalent version of their chosen genre.

Honestly, I was wondering. I was like either a) she's always messed around with production in her bedroom and just never told anyone or b) someone was helping her a lot.

      I think she uses minimal effort to take advantage of her fans. like 20 bucks for a photo at dragcon when the other producer entertainment girls weren't charging that much. I love that in her "real reaction to the crowning" video she said she didn't think she'd have to put effort into the show for ppl to love her. Bitch is terribly conceited and laaaaaazy.

      This helps answers what I'd asked in a separate thread. What Pearl's role in putting the album was. Now it doesn't mean the songs are bad because they have some generic sources, but I'm sure he wouldn't like that he got clocked!

      Was waiting for someone to point it out (and get the hate for it)

      Well done Nancy Drew.

      There's also some other rather well known stock material used on there.

      What we should point out is that this isn't a scandale or even unusual (Well MMU is a bit low end tbh).

      So kids, for dance, it's normal to use a lot of premade stuff as the art is in the composition not the individual parts of the track.

      Artists like Duft Punk or Aphex Twin who use very little to no pre mades are the exception.

        Baby, from one Pearl stan to another, did you really think she's been secretly spending the last several months in a studio with instruments and recording equipment and hiring singers to come in and do vocals for her EDM record? She's a drag queen, not a musician... if this were all 100% original material we should be worried, because it would mean that she is much more dedicated to her future in music than in drag.

        Every drag queen comes out with a (usually terrible) album post show, she just decided to do something a little different than the usual autotuned to hell and back club pop stuff... but she ain't trying to be Daft Punk here.

        This was definitely interesting and amusing T but I don't think you should be heartbroken that her album is very beginners material, because she IS a beginner. Hopefully she stays that way, because I'd rather see her in drag than DJing anyway, heh.

        [–]sneaselChi Chi DeVayne 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

        THIS! Like this is Pearl's first album! If they genuinely want to become a DJ/Producer I am SURE that once they have more time they'll put out some more, as y'all wanna say, "original" music. Pearl probably knew he needed to put SOMETHING out post drag race to keep up the hype and this is what could be made in the time he had lmao.

        I'm also really confused about the people saying Pearl did something illegal lmfao...

        [–]bumpkerr... and that's how I talk to chickens 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

        people who want to genuinely become producers tinker with their shit with every spare moment. I know folks who have literal back-catalogues of shit they've made since they were 14 years old. Not that any of them would release stuff they weren't happy with, but people who are into this stuff generally make the time to create and work on it. Anyway, that's just my take on it.

          Maybe that's why every song (from the snippets I heard) sounds so similar to me. There's this really bland, generic, basic quality to the album. Basic as in "not innovative", not basic as in "basic bitches not wanted". I can't knock her hustle, but I hope that if she puts out another album she'll at least vary her samples, loops, tempo, arrangement, phrasing a lot more.

          I'm not surprised xD same thing with one of Japans biggest EDM producers, Nakata from capsule. I have found most of his songs being cubase stocks just fiddled around and slapped on the same 128bpm

          [–]WHMXFeelin' like Donald, Feelin' like Trump 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

          To be fair, Nakata produces for a lot of people, including PERFUME. And he doesn't use full loops as the melodic structure of his songs. Mostly samples. And dude releases a ton of material, and he hasn't been using that many samples since the FLASHBACK days anyway

            Do you think that they were put together in interesting ways? I wasn't super interested in the album because its subgenre isn't one of my preferred flavors of electronica, but sometimes clocking samples is a legitimate criticism, and sometimes it's like listening for an Amen Break or a Wilhelm Scream.

            I remember an episode of Laptop Symphony where BT played an interesting song and then mentioned it was done by a 19 year old kid using Fruity Loops. And there's a couple of tracks I really like that have some clockable vocal samples, instrument samples, etc.

            Are the tracks enjoyable despite the clocked samples?

            I did mention earlier that it is a very solid EDM project. sure it was a bit lackluster and the song takes forever to get somewhere but I enjoyed it.

            You could say she's working 'smart' instead of 'hard'. Making a signature perfume might consist of 4 or so meetings and a bunch of emails with the olfactory chemists creating the product. "Producing" an album seemingly consisted of stringing together some pre-set loops.

            I don't doubt she's working her butt off at live shows and m&g's but the album? - she be LAZY.

            RuPaul's Drag Race actually uses one of the same loops from my all time favorite Hiphop album ever, 'Simply Complx' by the Detroit group Level Jumpers. I'll post a link later when I'm on a less maddeningly awful device, but YouTube 'Level Jumpers - Obey Yo Thirst'; it's the first sample.

            I can see your concerns but personally, it doesn't bother me. Pearl was a hair stylist by day and a Queen by night. She's managed to put together an incredibly polished and infectious album, that to the layman bears no traces of 'composing by soundpool'. It would have been easy to devolve total responsibility to a producer. She has my respect.

            As she should have.

            What people, who aren't producing music themselfs, don't know is that the difference is only in the size and sorce of your soundpool.

            Most commercial producers don't create there own sounds.

            My favorite drinking game "Clock the loop" disagrees with you.

            that's an order of magnitude more lazy

            it"s more lazy, yes. An order of magnitude? you overestimate the amount of work that go into a typical loop[1]

            [1] Sure you can spend weeks and month on a loop but almost no one does that.

            Depends let"s assume I need a very specific guitar sample

            Get the right guitar & strings, tune, get the right amp and analog effects setup record the sample. That takes a bit of time.

            klick two existing samples into a loop 7 to 12 mouseklicks depending on the software used.

            I'm not armed for the battle going on here, but I listened to the whole album and just had one question.

            Is it too much to ask her to sample herself singing "come let's fry" in a song?

            [–]LoonuLaila McQueen 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

            She isn''t a singer and probably didn't want to sing herself. Nobody cares wether skrillex or Zedd sings. Some people are singers, some are producers, some are rappers. People don't need to fit all those roles in the music industry, I guess?

            What do you expect with this electro house music bullshit?

            Becoming a good musician takes years of training, you need to learn how to read music first, play an instrument or sing, and then MAYBE you can start composing, but very few people have this talent.

            Or you can do this. which is what sells currently...

            Very few electro "composers"/producers are talented, let's face it.

            And don't start me on the plague of vocoding and autotune...

            Nothing against queens who do this though, everyone's gotta eat, if it sells then more power to them...

            I feel like this is just further proof that not every queen should be releasing an album after Drag Race. Her strength is clearly in aesthetics, not music, which is okay and not a bad thing.

            Chances are that Miss Fame's song Rubber Doll was made in a similar way with her singing over the track. Like, this is not anything new of the works of electronic/dance/rap music production at all.

            Oh, I have no doubt that her producer used loops. What I think people are finding amateurish is not the use of loops, but basing the majority of your content on essentially the starter kit in Magix Music Maker. Most professionals will combine samples and loops they collected with samples and loops they made themselves, or will at least make sure that the majority of their use is transformative enough that you're not like "oh, Hiphop Beat 02 we meet again."

            While I like Miss Fame...I still stand by my stance of "If you can't sing, don't" Fame has talents in other areas (like those quick sketches she was whipping up that most people wouldn't be able to do) that she could be banking on...there's a crud tonne of merchandise she could be designing herself that people would be eating up about now.

            Not true. I'm a producer and sound engineer and making electro is NOT easy if you're making shit from scratch. Programming drums, using sound synthesis to make your own instrument patches, doing creative signal processing to give texture to your compositions - these things take hours of work. So to say all electro musicians aren't talented is some shady bullshit. Its lazy production and unoriginality like this that gives it a bad name.

              Any 8-year old can do this. Most of the RPDR contestants' music are not necessarily masterpieces, but queens like Jinkx, Willam and Alaska actually work on their craft. Pearl seems to think his fans are stupid.

              But why? Is what Pearl did different/worse than having someone write your songs, produce your music or autotune your voice? Not coming for you but I can see why you might be disappointed -- not why you would actually lose respect.

              Because she literally copy pasted some loops, called it an album, and marketed it. So far, from Pearl, we've seen an overpriced perfume, and then this album... It's like she has no respect for her fans and isn't interested in making engaging, worthwhile content.

              Untrue. There are so many other examples of why.

              isn't interested in making engaging, worthwhile content

              That's a stretch.

              Not going to go back and forth because everyone has preferences/an opinion but I think it's shitty to make these sweeping generalizations about her character/work ethic.

              Met her too, can confirm. There's so much spiteful shit in this thread for a queen who is such a fierce performer and one of the sweetest people to talk to. I've met a lot of RPDR queens and she's on a Jujubee level of awesome when it comes to interacting with the fans (and Juju's the golden standard.) Call me a paleho or whatever but how many of the people in here who say she's popular cause she's hot have actually seen her perform?

              [–]satin_doll 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

              I feel the same. I've met a handful of RPDR queens and I can say without a doubt that Pearl was my absolute favorite to meet. I'm actually surprised I like Pearl as much as I do because I've been such a Jasmine Masters in the past (not impressed by those slim up and down pole bodies). But it's obvious she loves and appreciates her fans. She puts a lot of work into her look and attitude. I can't speak on her work ethic on the album, perfume, etc. because I don't have that information but I'm going to assume that she does care about her product and her reputation. And I can't really blame her for wanting to make a buck, especially since she ain't get that $100k check.

              I'll admit my bias because I am a huge fan of Pearl and what she's produced -- and I just want to see her succeed. Yes, I have Pearl-brain at the moment. But I think I'm still grounded enough to recognize when people are just being petty!

              She obviously doesn't respect her fans as consumers. Let's face it. A shitload of dragrace fans are not intelligent consumers and will buy something simply because a queen they liked made it. That's what Pearl is doing here.

              As someone who produces music and makes their own samples, there is a difference between using samples and using entire loops, and 50% of your album being cut and paste premade loops.
