Making a new wave 80s indie love song

In this one I show you how I record my song "Innocent Love" using the Korg MonoPoly synth, an acoustic guitar, a Fender Jaguar electric guitar, a Fender Precision Bass and some native instruments abbey road drums. I'm using Ableton Live as my DAW.
Listen to the song:
Spotify: open.spotify.c...
Apple Music: / innocent-love-single
I'm also on other streaming platforms under my artist name "Coatseller".

Somehow I messed up the main audio so the vid is mic-only audio 😡sorry! I thought I'd post it anyway. The song is full quality though!

That is the kind of stuff that always happens on my videos 😂😂😂 don't worry it's not a big problem 😉 we are so happy to have a video from you !

[@DavidBoura]

In a way, that's better.

[@CaalamusTube]

That was actually really cool... hearing the Track only with the crappy room mic sound, but then to hear the proper Mix in the end :]

[@NightMan1224]

Dude this was so cool! Such a vibe! Been trying to make music inspired by 80s new wave and it’s always really inspiring to see another persons creative processes much love ❤

[@Herfinnur]

You have such a compelling voice. Gives me the feeling I got hearing all those alternative 90's bands back in the day ♥️

[@austinmiller2276]

Puts me in mind of the cure. Love it!

[@gheesha407]

I started to make music in my room and this motivates me a lot, thank you. Greetings from Argentina
(Sorry if my english is bad lol)

[@onceuponasynth]

[@patrickhielscher115]

this song is in my spot playlist now, great tune man!

[@shannonswift2233]

I came to learn and did - then, I left with a great tune stuck in my head as well!

[@anewcleardawn]

Your catchiest song thus far...excellent work, bruvva!

[@shebeshchen]

Love seeing your process! Any chance you could run us through your mastering and arrangement in more detail - very curious to hear your reasoning behind the decisions :).

[@slackjack8901]

I love this so much! You are so good and it's so much fun to just watch you doing it all behind the scenes and also hearing the finished product. It's provides a lot of value I think! I've watched a bunch of your other videos and I just wish you would explain things more like the type of chords you used and why you chose them for this style and just went more in depth in the personal decisions you made that you think helped contribute to the style and tone of the song you made but Overall I love what you are doing and keep it up because it is very interesting and inspiring to watch as another musician

[@anandabadudu__]

[@evan5690]

hey man, i was just wondering if theres a reason you always film your videos (or at least it seems to me) as its getting dark outside

[@onceuponasynth]

No particular reason, I just normally prepare the song in the morning then I record the video after lunch when I'm not hangry lol.

[@evan5690]

once upon a synth makes sense lol. i love to see your process! great videos

[@janrehak288]

What hardware did you use for record the track? - soundcard, mic preamps ...

[@christiango604]

how did you do the effects with your vocals and what effects were those?

[@olsonwaters4116]

the stereo/almost chorus like sound is coming from double tracking the vocals and panning them each left and right and having them about a milisecond off and youll get that sound. Maybe at a touch of subtle reverb ( you can always add more) But he has very little here. On the chorus sounds like he tracked it a few more times and maybe sang in a higher and lower octave and turned the higher octave down a bit. A cool plug in you could try out also is the abbey roads adt, it emulates the stereo tape sound alot of artists in the 60's and 70's used. cheers

[@strad404]

reminds me of the SpongeBob song "best day ever"

[@nickd6451]

🤣🤣

[@brixxibuttercup9751]

Because of ween

[@leetronix]

I like the vibe not sure I would class it as an 80s type of tune but I do like it :)

[@strad404]

true. sounds more beatles than new order.

[@onceuponasynth]

yeah I always have trouble classifying songs/genres, I never quite get it right lol

[@binface9]

@@strad404 but not a million miles away from The Cure

[@leetronix]

once upon a synth Its alright you make good music and I listen to you on various sound platforms as I like your vibes and how you put and demonstrate the breakdown of how you put together your tracks - so you can be forgiven on decade types hehe 😜

[@strad404]

binface9 yeah, more like a marathon.

[@AltusNoumena]

Your music is so freaking good brother.

[@orkunsandalli]
