HP #39: Winter on the importance of finding the right tempo and key.

Sometimes the hardest part is not writing the song, it is making it feel right.

In this episode of The Hardest Part, Kieron Banerji sits down with Winter to break down the making of “Misery” and how the song transformed completely in the studio. 

What started as a faster demo in a different key with only one verse became the longest and most complex process on the record. Through experimentation with tempo, pitch, and arrangement, the track slowly evolved into something entirely new.

She explains how working closely with her producer led to key decisions like pitching the vocals down, slowing the tempo, and reshaping the song’s emotional tone. These production choices did not just change the sound, they changed the meaning.
