chenGOD Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Spot on with Animal Collective. I guess old people don't like osinatos and counterpoint. OK I can see calling the arpeggiated chord an ostinato (kind of, really it's still just a chord), but counterpoint? There was some vocal harmony in there, but I couldn't spot any counterpoint.

An ostinato is any repetitive motif. An arpeggio can be an ostinato, especially in this case, since it's setting up the melody part to be played over it. An arpeggio has a strict definition, whereas an ostinato isn't so objective. There is counterpoint happening behind the melody since it's not just repeating the same material. Lots of threes and sixes being played at the same time with alternating rhythm, which is actually a really good technique. By the way, most harmony can be considered counterpoint since harmony is mainly just a bunch of melodies being played at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually having a hard time picking out a main melody there... I think you might find that harmony is more in depth than "a bunch of melodies being played at the same time". I actually quite like this song, which is something, cause I don't like most Animal Collective stuff at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenGOD Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 sure, should I take one of mine for you? actually, on second thought, you should ask for a refund if that's what they taught you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chenGOD Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Dude, I know you went to Berklee. But harmony is more than a bunch of melodies being played together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braintree Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 Not really. You have one melody line. Then you go and repeat that same part up a third. Then you repeat that same part up another third. Now you have a melody that's harmonized in a triad. Three separate melodies that have the same contour but start and end on different notes. I think you're trying to make it a lot more complicated than it really is. Music is pretty simple. It's all just repeating the same material with a different spin.
