[2:04] 8. Find a specific niche for your track (be unique)
[2:19] 9. Sub note not an a C (if your track is meant to be for festivals/clubs)
[2:30] 10. DIVA (synthesizer plugin)
[2:37] 11. Distort everything a little (if you want a heavy squashed mix)
[2:55] 12. Put white noise before kick (so it punches trough better)
[3:09] 13. Put a cowbell on kick (so it punches trough better)

[3:40] 17. Use same sidechaining curves for everything
[3:51] 18. Bitcrushing things a bit too much
[4:00] 19. Introduce main drop lead with filter automation

[12:35] 51. Cowbells can also used for other things to punch through better
[12:58] 52. Put a limiter on master chain to check how everything is sounding
Was a bit of work, but I thought this would help a lot of people ✌️
Thanks a lot, it definitely helped me haha
Wow thankyou!!!
damn
Wow... 😮
👊🏻🔥
Who noticed the doggo on the sofa? Cuuutiee ❤️
He sleep!
Yeah
Illumi music you are litterally in every comment section of musical videos. I see you everywhere.
He is learning how to make music
I noticed. I dont think I'm very cute but thanks. Lmao
Another tip: title and colour EVERYTHING
Your distortion sounds so smooth.
When I add distortion, it sounds like 100 crows being killed at the same time
Use less. Routing to a different track, put dist there, then starting from 0 increase volume until it sounds ok.
Watch at 0.75x for better understanding !
Your Ritual remix is INSANE man, holy crap. Hits like a truck.
Thankyou bro
The best in my opinion
JONAS ADEN , best discovery of the year for me, sincerely!!
The same
I was thinking the same today after I listened to his new remix of Tiësto - Ritual
Totally
Same
Which tips did you like the most? Hope u guys enjoy this video!! 🎉
Collab with Marshmello .
or a Afro Beat Song
❤❤❤
I think all of them :D
Liked before it even started. Btw. That ritual remix is straight up fire. My personal favorite out of all. The flute nailed it. I hope you will show us how it was done, as you did with other songs. Cheers from Russia
OK this video is gonna be sick
More fitting title would be " TOP 50 LIFE CHANGING HACKS NO ONE IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY WANTS YOU TO KNOW ABOUT (WhAtCh BeFoRe tHiS GeTs DELETED)
Jokes aside, thanks Jonas for the ever helping videos you're spoiling us with every week! Can't even describe how incredibly helpful they've been!🔥❤️
Hahahhaha I considered it !! and thankyou man means the world to hear
Did anybody noticed that cute dog sleeping in the background
I dId 🐶 ♥
It's in the snowball position 😃😃
@@riktascale4 he indeed has a cute dog
Na I didn't notice. Really??
Yesss the doggo
Another couple quick tips for producers and musicians:
1) Listen to your music on multiple platforms. Don't just listen to your music on 1 device/platform. These days it's really easy to use USB devices to listen to music on everything from cell phones to car stereos. Listen to your mix on everything available to you(or your friends.. yes commandeer the stereo in their car next time you go somewhere with them!).
2) Learn to master your audio! It takes some time and practice but it's well worth the time and effort to have tracks that you've already mastered yourself hit a mastering engineer's office. It'll mean less time going back to the mix to fix things later!
3) Listen to your mix/song on Mono. With all the delays, reverb, offsets, panning, and compression these days it can be hard to tell how your mix is filling the audio spectrum. The best way to see how well a mix fills up the spectrum, is to set the audio to mono to get a better idea of how the different effects and instruments fill the space. This can help point out areas where it's too crowded or lacking in the spectrum that an analyzer can't really portray even with it's fancy graphics.
this is great!
Thank you
The bounce samples of your track tip is huge. It saves so much time for future tracks and you develop your own signature sound.
Jonas. This is gold. Seriously man you're knowledge is vast and you're helping us producers SO, SO much. Thank you man, you're a legend.
When u said ‘download my sample packs’ I was just like great... self promo...
*But then I heard free so imma go get them*
im using cakewalk to produce and when i got to use them theyre never there.. Any help?
Rellim I’ve never used cakewalk before... but there should be an add or file button that can get you to add the folder. If not, you should be able to drag samples (not the whole folder) into the playlist of your daw
Rellim there’s probably a tutorial on TH-cam for it
RAE ive tried everything 😂
What daw does everyone else use?
Thanks for being so open minded about everything,it's such a generous gesture to make your packs free to use for everyone. We love you Jonas🌃❤
I can see you were able to pick up a keyboard and mouse from Area 51
It's the Logitech ergonomic keyboard and the Unker vertical mouse
Treex Records TH-cam for artist
Treex Records you need release at least 3 songs via a distributor ( if I remember well) google it and see TH-cam faq for more precisely
Treex Records its an Official artist page on TH-cam, distribute your songs and you’ll receive one ☝️
shoutout to your dog coming in at tip 3, and then just completely minding his own business sleeping throughout the whole video
that's a good boy
It is clear you put a lot of effort into having high production values in your videos, and boy does it pay off! Thank you for the consistently fantastic quality and excellent tutorial!
thank you for watching ❤️
I came back after 3 years to check your old videos because im stuck in music production and weird is i finally understand everysingle bit of what you talk about production ,mixing, soundesign etc and its so weird .....then i am thinking i did learn bunch of shit and that is huge progrees...... just need inspiration now and here i am to gather some...thank you fella
We don't deserve dog... I mean we don't deserve Jonas Aden. Most genuine guy.
Unbelievable. I cannot comprehend how you keep up with all of the work you do for the edm community. Literally an angel for all aspiring producers. Thank you
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Jonas that insane I follow u when u have less than 5K followers and now u have 50K wp bro u deserve it !!
Ps : Ritual remix sound very super dope !! 🔥🔥
This video is perfect to watch every time you‘re working on a project, to get inspired and dont forget those great tips and tricks (what happens often to me, after a while)...
Just got in love with the 'Reverb-Automation-Trick' a few weeks ago! Thanks a lot for imporving my productionskills week by week Jonas!
You have inspired me to start making EDM! Your videos are so awesome!!! Thank you
This video is The best for Intermediate producers tbh ! THANK YOU JONAS
@jonas Aden thanks for sharing all this.
You really helped me out a lot!
Especially with the last few videos.
Keep up the good work!!!💪
Finding you was like finding gold, thank you so much for spending your precious time on helping small producers!
These tips are perfect. I'm a hip rop/rap producer but I have dance and rock influences. It's always useful to get knowledge from outside my area of producing in order to 'create the niche' you mentioned!
Yo that's crazy I do electronic and rock with hip hop/rap influences
Jonas Aden Is really Killing It this year!
@LUCA CINTRA looolllll
One of best Tips Tutorials ever... Maybe this are tips for electronic music, but I love how this video spends just a few seconds to explain each tip (Usually every youtuber in the world expends as much time as they can (as TH-cam seems to pay more if videos are longer I guess XD )
Great Job !
I watched one of your old videos recently and realized now how much more comfortable you’ve become in front of the camera
Jonas, Ritual is the best song you've ever made, Congratulation! 🔥
"Show it to your cat, dog, and goldfish... oh, yeah, and your family, as an afterthought." 😂
Thanks for sharing all your knowledge from your producing journey thus far, I've only just started getting into music production, but your tutorials have been really helpful so far!
love all your videos man they are actually so helpful! thanks!
Next music production tips GREAT you are my master
🙏⚡🙏
Jonas, your Ritual remix is Just NUTS, hits like an earthquake 🔥🔥🔥
I've heard about almost all these tricks before, but thanks for combining it in one video. I'm gonna watch it every time I stuck.
This is great stuff man, you are the best at what you do, I stopped watching everyone on TH-cam that I subscribed to because you all take about the same thing but in a different way, but your methods and techniques sound way better that what I been listening to all those years, really appreciate the knowledge. I dig this tracks as well.
Keep up the good work!
My signature thing is a heavy tom fill before the drop.
Super helpful tips as always! Thanks a lot for everything you're doing for the community.
love it man! keep doing what you doing, you are on the right path
Can't wait for The Making Of Ritual!!! :D
Plz make some sound design tutorials plzzzzz
This is a very good video to watch every couple to few months, I find. The reason is that sometimes things make sense, but you're not really in a position to receive and assimilate some important things. You need to be ready to "get it." This video gives you a quick way to see if there is something you're ready for! I remember the first time I watched this: I nodded my head, "uh huh, I get it, that makes sense" to every tip, but I didn't really "get" (as in able to really make use of) the vast majority of them. Now, I sometimes think "oh, I do that now, I really get it." But most of these tips I'm still working on! Thanks for a great, useful video.
love how straight to the point this video is. keep it up
10:15 - I felt that
No one:
Jonas: I'll shut up now
Me: plz no I want to hear you :(
Good thing he never does it
Really love watching your videos there's so much to learn from you!
This is exactly the video I’ve been needing recently, keep making awesome content man
Nobody:
Jonas Adens dog: *sclheepy time*
Jonas Aden never shuts up when he says he will.
pathological liar
@@AdenFoyer *impressive move*
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge Jonas, it's something that I personally appreciate 'cause not all producers of a label share this kind of things, and it gives you a little more closeness with your fans, I admire that a lot, I follow you a lot now.
I hope you stay that way, close to us, please.
Just barely starting the video, and I already wanna say thank you for putting this video together 🔥
I always thought you said "oh when I met you" in the Strangers Do drop.
if you search "walking in tokyo" on youtube you will find a guy walking in tokyo (ik what a surprise) but with really nice quality in terms of sounds i love it for my backrounds
Such an inspiration! And giving away so many good samples for absolutely nothing has to be apprechiated. Keep it up!
Glad I bumped into this video ,,, thanks for the new tricks and reminding me of other tricks I’ve forgot about 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
I was like “where is this guy going with 2 strings guitar” and then it falls apart 😂
46: pancake - I haven't not used it on a track since finding it!
This video really helped me improve the song I’m working on rn! Added some panning to the drop vocal to add a cool effect and added a pitch bend to one of the synths.
Love the vids. I'm learning and there's so much to fls to figure out on your own..
If you take a closer look at that paper jonas holds you can see one of the tips is Random stuff. LoL
*Absolutely noone*
Jonas : "ok I'll shut up "
these tips are G O L D E N! pretty much sums up everything you're gonna need if you're starting off music production. will save beginners a lot of time and learn from mistakes that he's made learning/making music over the years.
Your Videos are so good! they helped me a lot! 👌 please dont ever stop making videos!!
