Jai Paul is the only person that can make jai paul beats and it’s frustrating also the way he makes his beats sound like theyre slipping on a floor during a pause then the beat redrops or how he makes the most random sounds so perfect inside the song like this is good and all but dude makes edm sound less electronic while also making what normally would be a dance beat sound angelic and calm he’s 1 of 1
Spot on. This just scratches the surface of actually nailing the sound and range of his records. Without even including his vocals. Music's definitely a life long learning process.
It sounds like he side chains his vocal to either the guitar or the kick. This means whenever the guitar goes quiet his vocal also ducks out slightly at the same time. It creates a lot of rhythm in the song. You can do it using a glue compressor on the vocal track and then turning the threshold down.
@@fused4987 yeah the side chaining is pretty key to jai's sound ur right there, but there's some distinct effects that let it sit really spaciously, i've sometimes mimicked it by using a very wet reverb with like 0.4 decay time and then gained to make it audible again, but there's def more going on...
Hey! The trick at 5:40 in the video with the echo is one part of getting that spacious/stereo sound to the vocals. You could offset the other side side even more than I am doing in the video to really emphasize it. (This is called the Haas effect, recommend diving into it further if you're interested in the Jai Paul sound.) Another part of it is using a flanger on the vocals. The most important part, that's not really a trick at all, is just how he arranges his songs: There's a lot of space for the vocals to sit in, so to get the vocals feeling even more spacious, rather than adding even more stuff to them you should also subtract the right stuff from other instruments. More specifically, you should low/band pass the guitar and synths at where the vocals are the crispest. Around 2-5khz. The background vocal licks and adlibs are also really important to the sound. These you can add more heavy reverb and low pass filtering on. Then just pan each of them to a chosen side by quite a bit, or randomize the panning of them with a slow LFO.
