When i first saw a video of this guy, i didn't like him. He's grown on me now. Really chill dude and he's got some serious skills. His happiness is contagious
@Talim Palomino I barely know music theory but it helps to know what notes are in what key and things like that so it’s easier to make melodies that sound good together
@@khaaan_prod341 Honestly if you're struggling pull up the piano roll, use a piano, pick a random key to work in like D# minor (my favourite) and draw in some chords, starting with the first few root notes and then start adding notes on top by ear and same for the chord progression, move each note individually using your ears to how you want. Then start adding higher pitch melodies on top and add the bass notes below, or double bass notes, e.g. on C2 and C3, and mess around with the velocity of notes and randonize some stuff like, e.g. there may be some chords where you want them to sound cool and strum them, and some ones where a note comes in late. Obv if you know music theory a bit you can cook up faster and if you know it well and have relative pitch you can cook up instantly
@@khaaan_prod341 and add some gross beat on it, reverse it in places, and add a gate to make it wobbly, and make the gross beat fx really quiet in the back so that the piano melody stands out more, it spices up the melody each time
@@Mateusz7821 Thanks for the tips man. I applied that in C major making a custom sample for a boombap beat. You can find it as my most recent video, would appreciate the feedback on your tips
Ableton workflow tip, if you wanna copy a note an octave up or down, do the classic ctrl c, ctrl v AND maj + up arrow (octave up) or down arrow (octave down) Hope that helped :)
My favorite part of all the videos you do, is when you say "That's fire!", when you know you've done something cool! What joy it brings me to see this, I understand this feeling and appreciate that magic. You're an amazing talent, keep making content!
This changed everything for me. Now I can get all my phrasing figured out prior to picking up my guitar. Doing this is going to inspire my beat selection too.
The way you explain how to make chords is so easy to understand. I’ve watched some other videos on how to make chords, but this simple explanation was really helpful.
An even easier way to put notes in and then build chords is to just use the new scale option in Ableton. You take a note, and every other note in the scale ascending creates chords of varying complexity. Start with three notes, and you get a triad, four, and you get a seventh, then a ninth, an eleventh, a thirteenth, and so on. Also, if you find your music is sounding too congested, especially in the midrange, take your chords and ONLY use the third and the seventh. You don't actually need the root or the fifth, as they don't imply any tonality, and only serve as a base for your minor/major thirds to have a place of reference that explains to your ear what they are and why. This works very well when you have basslines/808s that tend to stick to the root note of each chord in your progression, and allows you to spread out your harmony among different instruments, which tends to make your music sound much more locked in with itself.
those single note melody starters always come out the best! old vid but just as great as the modern stuff! incredible video - second time watching this 👊🏽
Thank you Mr.Talenti. Your videos are always on point. Concise, yet extremely informative. To the point that my 12 year old son can stay interested the entirety of your videos and that just never happens. I'm old school attention span so if you ever make an in depth video or series on music theory, you can count me in for both views and likes. It's hard finding someone with your musical talent, ability to teach and just flat out positive vibe all rolled into one. Please, teach on.
WOW! I went to college to study music back in the late 90s, and you just taught more in ten minutes than what the tutors could do over the span of months! Fantastic video!
I came across your "Start to End Mixing" video and became an instant addition to "The Gang" ^_^ Watched all of your videos immediately! Subbed already & shared to tons of my friends for the love of your content! You are COOL & YOU are THE BEST ! I MUST compliment your skills of making a melody ON THE GO! The way you enjoy the music on the go just makes me feel that every human being should be THIS HAPPY & enjoying life the way you do! You spread happiness and I thank you a lot on the behalf of everyone else :) You are an artist to the core! Huge respect and god bless you. I would die to meet you if I ever visit Italy. LOTS LOTS of love from India :D
So much FIRE! 🔥🔥🔥 Suggestion: Please make a video on how you edit your video’s! It’s crazy to see how much your whole production has evolved. Awesome work as always 🙌🏼
Using your brain and voice to you're advantage while melody writing, instead of limiting yourself to playing the instruments you have available...Some extremely solid advice - I found myself trying to punch in a melody the other day over a beat on my piano, and I stopped myself after a while and just hummed some natural melodies. Then it was so much easier to translate that to piano roll or even playing on the keys.
Hey man, I just wanted to say that your videos are helping me out a lot! I love your work, and what you do inspires me to become a better producer, keep it up like that
Best tutorial I've seen of yours Ed and you genuinely put out quality information so for this to shine above the others is truly a feat. Thanks bro!!!👍🏿🎶
Good content as always, I really feel as if I advanced as a producer, last year i would've gotten so lost in everything you said but I've been doing most of the stuff you're showing in this video naturally, if just came to me, so I really feel as if I advanced as a producer since last year.
THIS. IS. THE. VIDEO. THAT CRACKED IT FOR ME LET'S GOOOO. FINALLY. After watch hours of music theory videos and all that this is the one where i could see each step broken down
Dude, I love your energy! You got me saying aaayeee and laughing like a child watching its favorite kids show! Thank you! Now, to open up FL Studio and see what I came up with last night... I WILL be watching more of your channel my friend!
Man Wow You said a mouthful about using your brain and voice to get the melody That's the simplest advice I've ever heard with composing music, I've watched people create tracks and get frustrated I have new hope because I hate spending hours to find a track to write to Now those hours will used to compose my own tracks
THANK YOU SIR... this was without a doubt the most helpful video I've seen... I've watched hours of videos that have helped me very little to none... I'm just starting out and I dont have all the equipment, and I'm using a free android DAW app and 99% of the tutorials are very program specific so I am beyond grateful that you explain it in a way that makes it much easier to apply to the app I'm using...
You’re a legend I’m subbing, I feel u when you say you don’t need to know anything about it to be good at it, I feel how music should be without any special studies, I’m subbing you’re a great at keeping us entertained
Holy cow, I still don't know how do you do it man. So effortless. And I agree, music theory is not necessary but it's super helpful - it really helps you make chord progressions quickly and predict sequences to improve workflow. Not to mention experimenting with genre, branching off into medieval minor type melodies then into a neo-soul groove. It's awesome.
Love your energy and passion man. Also great and easy to follow lessons. There's a lot of really handy and helpfull information packaged in an easy to understand and fun way. One of the best on TH-cam and my go to guy for learning about melodies. Thanks a lot.
Outstanding video, thanks for sharing this. My son (he's 9) and i followed your example to make a melody and we had a lot of fun. I hope you'll do a video on how you make a track from a melody.
I want to say thank's!!! Since i know your Chanel, my practice get better and better.👍👍👍 Thank you for sharing a lot little but verry usefull Tips. Looking forward for more Videos from u...
Fuck I'm feeling fired up, he made me smile throughout the whole video and now I gotta compose something or I'll probably die of depression SUBSCRIBED even though I'm on LMMS
Making good melodies is hard AF! Hope this helps gang 💪
DON’T FORGET THE FREE PACK - cym.fm/3rdAsjP
Yessir
Please release grinder's instrumental version
There seems to be a small glitch: "This is a 404 error, which means you've clicked on a bad link or entered an invalid URL."
It definitely helps bro, dope craft dope knowledge! Talenti is talents in Italian if I'm not mistaken, got fam in Como
Please teach us about chords.
i don't know how anyone could hate this guy, he spreads such good vibes and does a really good job at teaching this stuff. Keep doing what ur doin man
I confirm that!
When i first saw a video of this guy, i didn't like him. He's grown on me now. Really chill dude and he's got some serious skills. His happiness is contagious
@@artvandelay3282 yeah same lol
probably the last person who was this happy saying "that's fire" was a paleolithic era caveman.
underrated comment
That comment is fire!
comment deserves more likes
The progession wasn't even fire 🤣
you know, its lit at least
His "That's fire ahahaha" gives me motivation lol)

Knowing music theory makes stuff even more fun
@Talim Palomino I barely know music theory but it helps to know what notes are in what key and things like that so it’s easier to make melodies that sound good together
@Talim Palomino then I am no help to you 😂
learn music theory guys!! makes everything a whole lot easier and faster!
@Talim Palomino once u know the theory u can basically break and bend the theories to your own liking.
What are the best videos to learn from?
I can't seem to find anything more than the basics.
This is a cool setup to creating melodies without the actual theory behind it being explained, while using theory based techniques 😂 I love it! 🔥
This video makes me want to make a beat even tho I have beatblock
For real, this man's beats are so inspiring. He makes it look so simple and easy

You don't have beat block, you have overthinking
The key to producing fire melodies is to always enjoy it, while your making it 👌🏽. Ed demonstrates it perfectly
Ableton workflow tip, if you wanna copy a note an octave up or down, do the classic ctrl c, ctrl v AND maj + up arrow (octave up) or down arrow (octave down)
Hope that helped :)

dude, thank you SO MUCH. I've always had a hard time doing melodies and you video helped me a ton!
from the start, this melody is so good and it keeps getting better and better🔥🔥
This tutorial is by far the most simplest and helpful for melodies
gotta love this guy's energy

Love the video bro, i had so much fun keep going!
this video is extremely helpful for an amateur producer like me who's trying to get my skills up! thanks always Ed! 💓
Getting back into producing after 3 or so years of a break, thank you so much man you’re a legend 🙏
Woof I really needed this
Nice video, great advices!

Can’t even begin to tell you how long this melody was stuck in my head after watching this video
Nice track. Gives me a Eddie Palmier "Cafe" feel. One of my favorite Spanish songs. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love the content, and yes please a variations video would be perfect!
dude you did what i usually do with three different synths with one synth damn, u making me think more openly right now
Ed shouting Ed! Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for the community Ed. You’re an inspiration 🖤
Video was on 🔥 and on point very easy to follow along thanks for the knowledge.
Dude, I love your energy! You got me saying aaayeee and laughing like a child watching its favorite kids show! Thank you! Now, to open up FL Studio and see what I came up with last night... I WILL be watching more of your channel my friend!
Finally someone who explains things clearly
Man
Wow
You said a mouthful about using your brain and voice to get the melody
That's the simplest advice I've ever heard with composing music, I've watched people create tracks and get frustrated
I have new hope because I hate spending hours to find a track to write to
Now those hours will used to compose my own tracks
Thank you for this great video! :D
Thanks brother, I am very new in making music, and you explain it so easily. Really helpful.
Thanks from India🙏
I used to do that and after I was able practice/jam on a piano and understand it better. Great tip Ed
someone who understand a real beginner, thank you
As someone literally just starting out I just wanna say two things: I love you and thanks for making this. Hope someday I can pay you back somehow.
THANK YOU SIR... this was without a doubt the most helpful video I've seen... I've watched hours of videos that have helped me very little to none...

Those rhythm notes are a nice touch!
That man, right there, is the definition of underrated.
Dude...I really like your random little laughs 😂
Love your tutorials and your energy man, thanks a lot! 🙏🏼🔥
Love seeing someone using ableton to make beats. Love using ableton myself.
You’re a legend I’m subbing, I feel u when you say you don’t need to know anything about it to be good at it, I feel how music should be without any special studies, I’m subbing you’re a great at keeping us entertained
Congratulations on a 100k Bro
Dude, not even 5 minutes in and this makes so much sense. Nicely done!
This is so helpful Ed. Would you consider making a Porches style how to track? One of my fav artists.
You ask if he helped taking a grasp? You opened a world to me!
Dope stuff bro! 🔥🔥 Melodies are King!!
Eeeeeeh thx bro!! This made me a REALLY cool beat!!!
I really like it to see how much you enjoy music

I really enjoy this because I am very god at melodies ideas but my friends say I am not that at melodies. You are doing a good job.
