Description

Join Remi Wolf and Jared Solomon as they take us on a journey into the making of their anthemic synth pop single, ‘Soup’. The two songwriters open up about their creative process and their experience writing and producing the track on the rooftops of Electric Lady in New York.

They begin by introducing the talented collaborators that contributed to the songwriting and production process. As they play back the original demo, Remi delves deep into the art of collaboration. She shares her favorite methods for generating melodic ideas, keeping the inspiration flowing and overcoming the inevitable ‘demo-itis’ that artists face in the studio.

The duo continue to deconstruct the final arrangement, isolating each layer and sharing tips for building musical momentum. They explain how each part contributes to the song’s emotional arc and how the Grammy-award winning mixer Shawn Everett helped elevate their ideas into a colorful collage of sound.

As the series comes to a close, Remi takes a moment to touch on her evolving approach to writing lyrics. She talks about her goals as a songwriter and reveals how she pushed herself to strip away the artifice and become a more open and honest storyteller.
