The French really loved their Alesis 3630 compressors..
And butter… and swearing… and smoking!!
This is like watching a magician showing their secrets
Yes, exactly, the content is really useful.
Well said
if Baron Zemo made beats
Dude, I made house and techno back in the early to mid 90's. This is pumpin mad man, bad ass music you just made!. I actually just spent the last two days re-mixing 4 old house tunes of mine from 1994-98, one is very French house style, that's how I ended up here actually. Very cool, couldn't stop my body from grovin to it as it played, you got that magic touch for sure.
Thanks :)
If you like that kind of genre, check our YT channel and music guys! Greetings
Keep making music bro we need all the house we can get!!! 🤘🙌
Where can I hear your magic?
Now we want to hear it 😀 what's up
I wish there was videos like this around when I was 18
its never too late!
Yeah me too xD i remember times where everything was like a mystery and now you can find everything what comes to your mind.
You and I both !!!!
I spent a fortune on hardware back in the 90s Akai sampler , analogue synths , drum machines mixers and there was nob to show me how to use it and the manuals were like reading a science book and it still wouldn't explain to you how to make a club banger . TH-cam is such a fantastic learning tool
why? back then you could do the same.... nothing really changes
I’ve been trying to make French house forever and the mixing section in this video finally gave my tracks the touch they needed to sound authentic. Thanks!
It DOES make me move and it DOES make me dance! nice job!
Thanks 🕺
I can totally see myself downloading this song on Kazaa in early circa 2002/3 and getting pumped like it was an original daft-punk-cassius-modjo-esque created song! Amazing!
Whoa, you nailed not only the composition/arrangement, but also the sound/texture of the whole thing (pumping, overcompression, some "grit" like from older samplers and cheaper hardware workflows on both keys and bass). Sounds really like a rediscovered older classic French/filter house tape. :)
As been teenager during the French Touch era (which imo could be prolonged until early 2000's), I can confirm this is very faithfull with I listened at this blessed epoch. Congratulations !
I loved that Stardust track, it was -- and still is -- beautiful.
The music does, in fact, sound better with yewwwww
I made the mistake of watching this video right before I went to bed.
It kept me up all night! It's just so damn catchy! It made me move, it made me dance, if made me move, it made me dance!
Electronica music in the 90s just bounced, something that is very lacking these days and replaced with bombastic arena loudness.
It was made with love back then that's why it sounded so amazing.
Today its just massed produced and it all sounds the same.
@@darrenhirst9900 that is so true. I remember those days, because I was a teen in the early 90s. Sad what is happening to music now.
@@synthoelectro It is sad i agree.
Lol, u guys are the equivalent of dad rock. Keep in mind that, at the time, it was something new. Today electronic music is well known to everyone and comes in various genres. We have techno and groovy house, as well as chill dance, drum n bass, psytrance and goa, acid house, and in Europe all of this is very present and people love all of that. Our times are the best ever for electronic music. It "sounds all the same" if you only listen to commercial dj sets and tracks which are made for the masses. It's like saying rock sounds all the same just by listening to ACDC
@@dedalomusic It's commercial music I'm on about.
And i know electronic music I've listened to it all.
This music was a few years before "my time" but I was in "prime time" when Daft Punk did their thing in the late 2000s. SOOO many fond memories.
Wow, You did a great job. I DJed house throughout the 90s and this was my specialty, we called it filtered disco house as well. The daft boys were influenced by Chicago (e.g. DJ Sneak). They definitely took it to the next level though via their unique craft (compression, side chaining, big synth lines, and vocoders, etc). Thanks for sharing more great content!
I haven’t heard of the Stardust record label since 2001. Wooh. It should be mentioned one of the most popular hardware filters of this genre was the analog Akai MFC42 and was Ian Pooly’s secret weapon.
I wonder if there are any VSTs that are modeled after the 42?
@@SiliconPrairie No sadly not. But the 42 is never be used in france house because the use the SP1200 for its filters like Intro by Alan Braxe and Fred Falke
I have that filter! Use it on all my tracks!
Man Music Sounds Better with You is still such a classic
The thing is that the MFC42 didn't appear before the 2000's so it couldn't have been used in the 90's. ;-)
For example, Daft Punk had a Waldorf 4-Pole Miniworks.
Also they extensively used the Roland S-760 sampler that happens to have a very good multimode filter.
I used to own a couple of them and the filtering in some tunes sounds really like the S-760 filter to me.
I can’t put my finger on what constitutes the ‘French’ vibe but I know it when I hear it and you captured it brilliantly! Very inspiring and thank you🙏 new sub👍😎👊
Thanks and welcome :)
As a french, our Rock and Indie scene has always been behind the english speaking countries, but the french speaking rap scene and electronic scene are so huge it makes up for it ahah
LP filter on the sample usually, although this guy didnt use a sample
@@MrMiguelForster was gonna say phasers... lots and lots of them...
Filters, swing, heavy compression. Disco like.
The quality of your content is so good. I'm especially glad that you go over the mixing process too.
Thanks.
And in this case the mixing really is an integral part of the sound so didn't want to skip it.
One of the best song arrangement examples I've ever seen!
Honestly one of the best music production channels I've come across. Brilliantly explained, concise, very inspiring. Keep up the amazing work! Loved the Old School 90s Rave video too.
Thanks a lot ! :)
Awesome tutorial once again, i love how you teach the overall elements properties instead of locking the learner to very specific techniques. Well done sir!
My pleasure !
Amazing video, I respect that you first started off with a quick run down of the big French house players at the start. I am a massive fan of bangalter and cassius and this gave me a good view into their world of music!
Great job Estuera! You really captured the finesse and vibes of the French Touch sound.
Love French House/NuDisco! This was amazing to watch, I'm gonna try some of this in my productions!
Just simply wonderful! And I love that genre a lot!
Best explanation of this genre I’ve ever seen. Sending this to my producer buddies. Thank you!!!
just found your channel.. I think I found a real nice gem here😻
Welcome 🎉
You totally captured the essence with the final result. Good job!
As a french, I can say that ur pronounciation of " Thomas Bangalter " is very good ! Nice video, never stop listening to French Touch ❤️
Merci!
I love how you dissect the elements and theory behind different genres. I used to thumb my nose at genres, as they appeared to me to be restrictive, but over the past few years I have realized that knowing the rules lets the composing, arranging and mixing process be more about the music, rather than stumbling in the dark until something sounds good! The unstructured creative play is fun and valuable, but sometimes you just want to play with within a different set of rules. It's like painting with a limited palette.
Awesome videos, and I look forward to exploring your back catalogue.
damn, this track made me move and dance. also, when you introduced the vocal samples my jaw dropped. those were picked very well
Now this is seriously quality content and video. Awesome, good job man
I stillll fukin love this style of house music !!!!
this channel is a pure (x-static)goldmine! love it!
It makes me dance, it makes me move. The song is right! Great work!
love this French Touch house feeling, you nailed it!
This brings back memories!
So cool!!!! As the French would say; tres bien, merci!
Merci beaucoup 👌
Another banger, great job, thank you
I can't tell you how much I love all your "like we're back in the 90s" videos and songs :D
Completely compelling, eye opening, and fun to follow step by step. Thanks for sharing!
The gold standard keep up the fantastic content
That track is SOOOOO fire!!! Glad to see HOW it's created!
This here takes me back to some fun times. Merci and cheers!
i just love this genre its special to me
What we do here is go back ack ack ack *BWAAAA*
This is freakin' awesome! The final track is sooooo groovy.
You are talented mate! Love watching your videos, brings me back! 🙏 thanks
Thanks ! :)
I've been using cubase for years making hardcore and trance but your process has made a lot of things clearer for me. Brilliant.
Thanks :)
There are some videos related specifically related to (old school) trance on this channel as well. (and hardcore also gets touched upon here and there)
Amazing breakdown, this is what i needed to calm down my inner Teenager who tried and fail to understand Daft Punk prod back in 1997. So good that with the soundtrack at the beginning of the video I thought you were going to say 'My name is Giorgio Giovanni'. Congratulations on this series of videos, thank you for sharing !
“When I think about you.......my feelings can’t eaxplaiiiin”.
The riffs and the fiddly groovy composition of this track are divine. Like a very beautiful fractal français. Like a hangover from 70s disco in a Renault Clio.
The arrangement was amazing
I am digging all these rabbit holes you are taking me into
Sounds way better than a lot of the French House I heard back in the day. I would dance to this.
The vocal is really badass, man.
Thanks ! I must say it turned out quite nice now I'm relistening it, especially the mixdown.
The PROD sounds great on my shite iphone speakers which is a good test of a tunes basic ability to sound level on a setup less than ideal.
The, “It Makes You Move, It Makes You Dance” vocal is a great test for any system and where it sits in the Mix is a testament to the quality of your Mixdown.
the problem with the 'French Touch' stuff is usually the more mainstream tracks were quite irritating and cheesy, the real gems only started to appear once you scratched below the surface and started finding the real bangers.
Fantastic job as always
Thank you! Coll content! That filter sounds really great.
Amazing effort. Love it.
Fantastic! You are a great teacher and musician!
Your videos are a goldmine!!!
Wow this sounds awsome! reminds me so much on the 90s! well done.
This is so cool, thanks for sharing!
Nice beat, man! I love the mixing. Excellent job.
Love this!
Amazing
Great work, mate. Love it!
C'est juste génial, ça sonne mortel 😀
This is fire and so accurate man 🔥
Great stuff dude, love it
awesome thanks!
where has this video been all my life?
You nailed that track. Great mix. Love your in-depth knowledge on your subject matter.
Thanks !
Amazing. Quality mix. This could easily fit into a Daft Punk set.
Great Video ! your way to explain sutff is super educative ! and the sound is great
Looooove the finall outcome. Cant wait to get home and try recreating something similar :D
Luv the music video too.
Wow would totally have bought this back in the day :D. Absolute banger.
Nice protip with compressing that kick, I learned something
It's so interesting looking into the '90s dance music production. What most artists had wasn't much (and even then - mostly used stuff from the '80s) - yet they've pushed their quite basic hardware to the absolute limit.
Less is more indeed. And limits trigger creativity
Super! Love it!
This track is so fire!
Great videos mate
That was soo good I went back to the 90s and bought this hit single. ;)
This is very cool! Thanks for sharing!
Great video... thank you... keep bringing the funk
Great knowledge and presentation. Enjoy watching your content, keep it up!
Fantastic video! Concise and informative
Cassius, sors de ce corps ! 🤩
Good as always !!!
Another fantastic video man! The way you explain, it makes the things much easy to understand. Thank you very much! ;-))
Thanks
Great tutorial! Thank you for this! :)
Great song. You should release it. Brings back cool memories of the 99-2000 :)
great video man!
Excellent video, it's like you have raided the crate of late 90s house I have stashed away... I can almost feel the stick club carpet under my feet LOL. I really enjoy these 'Let's create...' videos, they're brilliant.
I'm tripping on ecstasy. Nice breakdown and cool visuals.
This was awesome! :D
Excellent presentation and sick track
This turned out awesome
Amazing channel thnx!!
Awesome! That BASS really makes me move :)
Just wow. I absolutely love this song so much - thank you so much for showing how it was all put together!
