My own input for DWUW

 

The key is a tricky thing with this one. The tonic is clearly D...BUT there is an E major chord in it, which doesn't fit the key of D major. Also, the bridge has a C sharp minor chord, which, again, doesn't fit D major. All in all, there are three accidentals used - f sharp, c sharp, and g sharp, which means the key SIGNATURE would be notated as A major.

 

However, I believe the song is built on a D Lydian Mode, giving us the following notes: D - E - F sharp - G sharp - A - B - C sharp - D. Notice the augmented fourth. This is crucial because in the chorus, she heavily emphasizes A to G sharp ("heart and") so we must considered its importance in the song. That, combined with the clear tonic of D, is why I argue this piece is composed on a D Lydian Mode.

 

My chord progression is as follows:

 

Verses and Chorus: D major - E major - E major - Fsharp minor - E major

 

In the bridge, however, she does this: D major - E major- C sharp minor - Fsharp minor - E major.

 

Someone had said that she plays an f sharp diminised in the bridge, but I'm positive that that's not the case. That would mean she uses a c natural which simply isn't there.

 

Source: I'm about to graduate with a music degree, focused in electronic composition and theory.

Venus is in F minor. We can hear B flat, E flat, A flat, and D flat in the melody and chords.

Sometimes, just because there is an accidental or natural doesn't mean it changes the entire key. That's why there are accidentals. IMO though, it sounds like Fdim. In the bass synth, it's an f (single note) playing. C#m would have an E.

Also not F#m dim, Fm dim.

Edit: Also I think (not sure or studying professionally) that it would be in F#m because she doesn't even use an A chord in the song.

Can I ask what Stems are used for?

 

Can you use them as sounds for your own original songs?  or do you only use them when remixing that specific song xD

U can use them for remixing a song, or just play with the original song (like the extended Swine mix what leaked in october) or making mashups etc etc,
