What Is Country? ||: HHV Ep 1-9

from Hits And Hooks Vignettes

This week I have a 2 chord song, yes just 2 chords. I look at the pentatonic scale, spin a lovely Jazz tune from a favourite Paris band, we'll see a couple of versions of the half - time beat, and deep dive into the characteristics of Country. In Hits and Hooks Vignettes, we play some great tunes and lift the hood to see what makes them tick. HHV is a short-form music podcast about how songs keep listeners engaged through hooks, structure, and the subtle musical decisions that quietly do their work. Follow Hits and Hooks Vignettes, and join me, TuneMoose Matt Bates, for a weekly short walk through musicland! Hits and Hooks Vignettes is produced by Everyone's A Star Records, and hosted by TuneMoose Matt Bates. Songs:Beldon Burch - Beyond This Town (Jamendo Licensing)Jeff Jacobs - Romantic Night (Jamendo Licensing)Dazie Mae - Sofa (Jamendo Licensing)E.D.
