Attention I have the impression that there is an error in the schema Overview of Part Types, their respective roles and the naming used in ArrangerKing: EDM/House/Electronic you have reversed break and build which are not in the right boxes, build should be in the same column as verse, head, exposition and break in the same column as solo/break, you see what I mean?

Hi Negin,

Thanks for looking in to this, but honestly I don’t understand what you mean !? Can you make a matrix where things are as you think they should be? (Its getting a little confusing in text)

Thanks a lot for the attention.

Hi,  
Thanks for answering me  
Sorry it was a bit confusing indeed!  
I attached a screenshot.  
In this table in the 2nd line (EDM/House/Electronic) 1st column why do you call “break” what should (for me be called “build” and still in the 2nd line (EDM/House/Electronic) 3rd column you put “build” I would have put “break” which in relation to the other forms Pop/rock/disco, Hip-hop etc… is it not more logical? Otherwise I do not understand this logic  
if the “prechorus” is the “buildup” the “verse” is the “build” and consequently “solo/break” is “break”.

Thanks in advance for any explanations if I am wrong

Hmm I have to say that you may have a point… I’m so into this existing system now that it may have blinded me … the thing is: When I made this people said I was so wrong and music could not fit into boxes like this, I got a lot of hate frankly…

Now it may be easier to look back because now it exists and perhaps there’s mistakes made and they should be corrected.

I’m not sure because the exact point you raise here is about naming, and people really name individually.

Some say “this is how it is”, but of course there’s no truth to what’s what in naming of EDM part types.

But we can change that and make a truth 😉

If you look here:

Is your theory still that I should have swapped these two?

Do you have some friends you can invite in here to say their opinion?

Thanks 🙂

Dude, looking closer I really think you are right!

It’d be great if people could chime in, thanks!

OK, nobody commented, but I have to agree, this was a little error, and better correct it now than drag it into the future: Ak will be swapping display names for **“Break” and “Build”**

Reason: It aligns better with how most producers talk about EDM segments.

Thanks, Negin 🙂

A compact matrix would make the distinction clearer: put “build” with the structural sections if that column means song progression, and “break” with solo/break if it means an instrumental or contrasting passage. The column headings and definitions matter as much as the placement, since “build” can also describe a transition into a drop.
