Overproduced songs are songs too overly layered, excessive audio effects or instruments....
Too much is goin on and they can be real noisy or chaotic   
To me these ones are very overproduced even if i love them 
 

 

 

Sometimes i feel like Charli XCX even if she has amazing records they can be overproduced.
Too much is goin on in her Electronic tracks 

Do you have any examples of this?
Overproduced songs? Even if theyre not strickly EDM?

Yall are going to hate this but some Beyonce songs she could do with a few less vocal layers and some more raw imperfect production

That was kinda the point lol. "Overproduction" (as understood by noisy instrumentals, layered vocals, extra synths) is literally Gaga's sound.

Born This Way is overcooked. In some parts a lot of things are going on at once.

 

Xtina's Accelerate is what you hear when you play 2 unrelated songs at the same time 

 

Whatever will.i.am was doing to Britney's discography.

A good majority of hyperpop/industrial releases.

and it was done in the best way.

How is Accelerate overproduced when its instrumental is pretty minimal? the fact that it changes throughout is a completely different thing

 

Overproduction is the one in Highway Unicorn by Gaga, in my opinion. Which can work, I love the song

a lot of early 2010s music is like that. born this way is particularly horrendous in that regard, but to me florence's ceremonials is the worst ofender. 

There is so much going on in Judas, love it though

Charli xcx songs can feel overprodced 

To me overproduced is when the producer and artist achieve POP PERFECTION, and instead of sending it off to the engineers, they keep tweaking it and ******* with it to the point that it becomes too much and it starts making the song worse off. Example: SEXXX DREAMS, here's the pop perfection version: 

 

 

 

And now the overproduced CD version (which we still stan, but it's not as good): 

 

 

the compression was set to max ans the amount of reverb put over the lead vocals and vocal layering. pretty sure this is done with intention though as there is no line in this song that doesn't either have some choppy vocal sample, heavy reverb, call or response or some type of mixture of those.
