In this episode Joe discusses the 3rd rhythmic layer - melody. It may be the main melody or the countermelodies, such as the baseline, high strings, pads, vocal backgrounds, fill-ins by various instruments, etc.. Also discussed is the interaction of the various layers of rhythm previously examined in podcasts #51 and #52, along with using rhythm as an organizational device. Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" is used as the main example.
