Songwriting Idiots

We’ve reached the end of a road, friends. This is the last episode of Songwriting Idiots and we are going out with a bang! LINKS * Follow Brothers Bait on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/brothers_bait/]!

Here’s the weird thing. We’ve been doing this show for over two years now. We’ve tackled almost 20 genres and yet … somehow we still haven’t talked about the biggest genre in the world right now: Hip Hop. Well, boys and girls: Today it is time to change that!

The sound system’s booming through the streets, deep bass caressing your chest and sweet sweet autotune taking you to a place of pure bliss – a place where nothing matters. Well … that’s at least one way to describe Dancehall. Here we go! LINKS * Follow us on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/songwritingidiots/] * Go vote!

Here we go again. Season 3 of Songwriting Idiots is here and oh boy – what a strong start it is! This month, you asked us to tackle to iconic German genre of “Neue Deutsche Welle” or German New Wave. It’s pure 80s bliss all about the relatable song topic “The floor is lava”. Enjoy! LINKS * Follow us on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/songwritingidiots/] * Go vote!

Just before the start of season three of Songwriting Idiots, we were wondering one last time. Wondering about one-hit wonders. So we are taking on another all time classic this time: Come on Eileen by Dexys Midnight Runners. And what an utterly weird song that is! This really begs the question: Why did it become such a massive hit and why did the band never manage to produce another one? LINKS * Go Vote!
