I love Pink Floyd ... this is a cool experiment, but how did they come up with the magical number! 15 secs apart? what if you play some other song and mix the solos with 12, or 20 sec apart maybe you can find something that works for them ... also it sounds like the first one is louder than the second one that comes in later, so its a bit hard to tell if you would get the same thing if they were both the same level
- manvsmachine 19y agoIt's 15 seconds because the song uses a four bar chord progression. 4 bars * 4 beats per bar = 16 beats. The song is around 64 bpm so you do the math and it comes out to 15 seconds
- SwellJoe 19y agoIt's not magic. DJ's do this every 2-3 minutes for hours at a time with completely different songs. There are only so many reasonable tempos, only so many keys to play in (and popular music sticks to a very small subset of available scales, and even if they didn't, all modern instruments are equal tempered and so only have 12 notes that are identical across all instruments and keys...and many scales can overlap without horrendous results). And, obviously, the same song is going to be in the same tempo and key (roughly)...so you can easily delay some number of beats and get a round out of it. Try it with just about any song. It'll work fine. Obviously, instrumentals will usually work better, but even vocal tracks can work fine this way.
