The Hit Song Deconstructed reports provide unparalleled analysis of today's hits.

Each deconstruction breaks down a current hit to its foundational building blocks and pulls back the curtain on the patterns and science behind how the song was written, produced and arranged.  

Leaving no stone unturned, everything is presented in a clear and concise manner and is complimented with unique Hit Songs Deconstructed visualizations that can be used to assess your own songs for strengths and weaknesses as well.

Each report is published in six segments every two weeks, and analyze:

  • Structure, Genres and Sub-Genre Fusion
  • Instruments and Arrangement
  • Energy and Dynamics

  • Benchmark, Highlights & Takeaways

By reading these deconstructions, you'll become privy to the same tools and techniques today's hitmakers are using.
