[NelsonG]

If you're a big music fan and an avid podcast listener, you've probably heard of Song Exploder. The biweekly podcast created by Hrishikesh Hirway in 2014 features a range of musicians, who dive deep into the components of their hit songs and walk listeners through the process they used to create them. The show has featured U2, The Roots, Fleetwood Mac, The 1975, Selena Gomez, Weezer, The Killers, and composers for Game of Thrones and Black Panther. Now, the show has been translated from your headphones to the small screen, courtesy of Netflix.

Like the podcast, Netflix's Song Exploder series features artists demystifying the creation of their songs, from their earliest ideas to finished recordings. The show is high-quality and comprehensive, making it perfect for viewers who want to learn more about their favorite jams.
