simple key change trick to give your songs a boost

Описание: Alright, so technically this is a modulation but hopefully somebody finds it helpful. It's a very simple idea that has been referred to as a few different things like the crowbar modulation or the truck driver's modulation. It gets used in country music and was very prominent in 80s and 90s pop but there's no reason why you can't use it in drum and bass or chillstep or dubstep. Modulations and key changes in general seem to have fallen out of favor but I've seen them appear in some more modern music like Sabrina Carpenter's "Please Please Please" which moves from A major to C major which is a slightly unusual key change but works very well.

The song playing is called Sagittarius. It's an attempt at making some chillstep inspired by the sound back in the early 2010s when the genre didn't really have a name yet and was alternatively descried as 'melodic dubstep' and 'lovestep' and a few other names I can't remember now because it's been too long. The sound was more experimental then and there was a wave of producers all making what was basically dubstep without the aggressive sound design. Eventually a lot of that stuff started drawing on future garage and the tempo fell from about 140 down 10-20 bpm to give us chill step.
