You really are one of the best educational music youtubers out there. You always keep it so simple, get straight to the point, explain your concepts clearly, and it's always so easily applicable even if we don't use the same DAW or plugins you do.
If the general idea is to make the songs around a vocal melody, it would be nice to have some info on how to do that vocal melody. It kind of is the most central piece of the song. I wanna make the main attraction myself and not just use someone else's.
yeah, he explains nothing... it's a "just do what i do and trust the process" type of tutorial, which is nice for "i need to do a quick x-style song for tonight" but not for actually learning why this is a house song and not a drum n'bass or hardstyle xD. Basically for each genre he does this is basically one single video that can be re-uploaded cause click-baity title
I have been watching a bunch of your vids lately and you get me so pumped to produce. I will definitely be purchasing your vocal pack when I can afford it. Thanks for all the inspo and wisdom
Any synth plugin should work to make the sounds in this video. They are simple sounds using only a single voice each which means even the simplest free synths should be able to pull off these sounds.
Horribly non-existent teaching. Little more than you just surface-level verbalizing what you're doing as you're doing it with no explanation of how you arrived at those choices, how certain settings affect the sound, etc. It's like if an art teacher tried to teach students how to paint by just saying " First I move my paintbrush like this. Then like this. And like that. Now you ". Or if a batting coach taught people how to hit by just saying so just see the ball and hit it. Instead of breaking down hitting mechanics first. How helpful and effective a teaching method would that be? You make great beats which I think may be part of the issue. Ideas come to you easily so you don't know how to explain your process to others well. Most of whom musical ideas, knowledge, and skill don't come to nearly as easily. So there are huge gaps in your teaching method that you can't see.
Damn, it actually makes a lot of sense to start with vocals... As you said, it sets the arrangement in place, and then you just need to find chords and other sounds to add details/depth. I've always struggled with the arrangement, as it's my weak point, while designing sounds or composing notes is my strength. Will give it a try!
How did you get that synthy sound to come out of serum? AT 1:20 I followed exactly what you pressed and I am getting a much different sound. Ive watched the small section like 30 times haha. I don't understand.
Wow! I dont really like chopping things up with an LFO tool, it ends up sounding too static! The last drop hits the best as it is groovy while the choppy one feels quite stale. That bass groove sounds so pro man good job!
Hey, how can I send you my songs? I’m a beginner and I’ve made 16 songs, and I’m stuck on the one I’m currently working on. Oh yeah, and I work on computer GarageBand.
I liked your choice the best too, the studer acapella and chords are nice but theyd better fit a faster beat more like trance or psychedelic. Good video
It looks so easy, but it is not 😁
I feel like it’s because I don’t have any plugins to make really cool sounds 😢
@@popanamethats real, I think the hardest part of making music in general is find the right sounds 😂
Real
Alex please do more of these walk throughs. They are the most helpful
The last drop fits the best
I wanted to make music, now I don't. 😂
Is there any artists making house music using other animals than humans for acapellas? Like cows and pigs.
Matthew Herbert would count
Not only did I make a great song inspired by this, I also used your orbital presets pack! Love it thanks!
You have for yours??

Whilst I don't have the skills or talent to make tracks like this, I enjoy watching the process of others that do. Nice video.
Thank you I really appreciate that
Im ready to improve my music producing game with this video 👍
I like the first drop better, the second one i personally would add as a second drop for nothing other than unexpected inconsistency
Yeah I was about to say the same thing but switching first one as second drop and second one as first drop.
agreed

not only did you say what program your using, you didnt say what plugin your using.
we should just use any sawtooth?

I think he has training for that!!!😉
Your videos are very inspiring and very helpful
I've been using FL Studio for years, but if I had a macbook I would probably buy Logic Pro. The UI just looks so much cleaner
Alex your production skills are amazing, much respect!
Wow that video was brilliant! Thank you 😊

This is great! Where can we find vocals like this? If Splice, what do you search to get these? I can never find stuff this good.
You just got one new student for the edm bootcamp after this video, buying next month!! 🤩
You beautiful human being, thanks for sharing the knowledge 🙏🏾
I always did the beat first, a usual sound or sample. Something sci-fi sounding.
Put both in the song.
Awesome vid, always inspires me to make something new #logicgang

Hey, how can I send you my songs? I’m a beginner and I’ve made 16 songs, and I’m stuck on the one I’m currently working on. Oh yeah, and I work on computer GarageBand.
Hi Alex, another great track and video, any possibility you can let us know what pack on splice you got the vocal from..??
Thanks Rik.

Last few Vids tought me practically everything to get best out of my Rig. Ez fun, every day. Thanks Brah.
I'm currently playing around with things like this as well. Nice video, and it doesn't depend on the DAW.

Can I use any of the effects for audio vs midi? My instrument doesn't allow midi plugins
Is there anyway to hear full of the final product?
I love trance. This track is great.
