This is not EDM it's IDM. EDM (Electronic Dance Music) and IDM (Intelligent Dance Music) are two distinct genres within electronic music, each characterized by specific sonic qualities, compositional approaches, and cultural contexts. 1. **EDM (Electronic Dance Music)**: - **Sonic Characteristics**: EDM typically features repetitive beats, heavy basslines, and synthesizer-generated melodies. The focus is on creating energetic, danceable tracks with an emphasis on driving rhythms and catchy hooks. - **Composition**: EDM compositions often follow a formulaic structure, with build-ups, drops, and breakdowns designed to maximize impact on the dancefloor. Tracks are often shorter in duration to maintain energy levels and facilitate mixing in DJ sets. - **Cultural Context**: EDM has its roots in the late 20th-century rave and club culture, where DJs played a central role in creating immersive dance experiences. The genre has since evolved into a global phenomenon, with festivals, nightclubs, and streaming platforms serving as key platforms for its dissemination. 2. **IDM (Intelligent Dance Music)**: - **Sonic Characteristics**: IDM is characterized by intricate rhythms, unconventional time signatures, and experimental sound design. Artists often incorporate elements of glitch, ambient, and avant-garde music, creating complex sonic textures that reward attentive listening. - **Composition**: IDM compositions tend to be more abstract and cerebral, eschewing traditional song structures in favor of nonlinear arrangements and soundscapes. Tracks can vary significantly in length and complexity, with an emphasis on sonic exploration and innovation. - **Cultural Context**: IDM emerged in the 1990s as a reaction to the commercialization of electronic music, with artists seeking to push the boundaries of the genre and challenge listener expectations. The term "intelligent" reflects the genre's emphasis on intellectual engagement and artistic experimentation, contrasting with the more mainstream appeal of EDM. In summary, while both EDM and IDM are rooted in electronic music, they differ in sonic characteristics, compositional approaches, and cultural contexts. EDM prioritizes accessibility and dancefloor appeal, while IDM emphasizes experimentation and intellectual engagement, appealing to listeners with a penchant for sonic exploration and innovation.

Might not see this, but Virtual Riot, you inspired me so much growing up, and still now with your music, please never stop, you literally saved my life. thank you
You were going to die and VR personally rescued you? You owe this man a kidney! Encouraging someone to donate a kidney is a deeply personal decision, but consider the profound impact it could have on VR's life with a third kidney. Your act of generosity could mean the difference between VR having two or three kidneys. By donating your kidney, you have the power to give the gift of a third kidney to VR. It's an opportunity to make an extraordinary difference and showcase the true meaning of friendship through selfless acts of kindness and compassion.
@@Positive_Tea his music just put a lot of hope in me, and kept me motivated, and I've had huge bouts of depression and trauma throughout my life, so its a lot more impactful to me. :)
And by the way the melodic pattern that came out made me think that Rolando had this in the early 2000s to make Knights of the Jaguar(Or Isolee for Beau Mot Plage)
I use Life all the time to get intersting perc / top loops. It's been such a big help. I hate doing perc stuff, because i'm really bad at it doing it by hand. This really, really helps me. Thanks for your tutorial :) I'll need to try the melodic stuff too.
XLN has a really good sample library organizer plugin thingy too for those who dont know. Game changer. Thanks for coming down to Austin btw. Your set was the bees knees with extra cheese! And hilarious as always lol. much love
I’ve tried it and idk if I can justify buying it (honestly forget how much, prolly worth it tho tbh) but I always think back to how nice it was when I had the trial. Really interesting but intuitive design (Edit: it’s on sale for $77 usd, I may need it soon lol)
I have Life and have tried lots of stuff. Made cool percs with my kid's voice, and we've started a project where I make the beats, and he's going to have the lead vocal. :) This plugin is so much fun!
Even the immediacy of recording something on the go and it being accessible directly in the plugin is so helpful. Credit to XLN they really do like to innovate!
LIFE ROCKS - so fun to go out with your phone, capture weird things, come home and immediately plug them into a track. Few other plug-ins can offer something this unique. Great tips too!
idk if I'll ever take advantage of this, so I'll put it here in case someone else does. This could easily be used for an automatic/random hocket device, just by putting in a bunch of tonal one shots in the same key like he was saying, you could get some sick results.
The sort of auto-categorization of slices really helps with making the randomly generated loops make sense, however I’m currently trying to expand on this idea with some ableton devices 😁
With plugins like these which gives you "unique" and high quality grooves in seconds, i wonder what what will feel new and fresh in the next couple of years of electronic music... Cause now everyone can make cool grooves, as you said you basically made a fourtet tune in no time, but what comes after all this... Its cool to see how you can bend the plugins in new interesting ways but im more interested in what will feel new and exciting in electronic music when everyone has this under their fingertips... Anyhow wonderful vid as always, thanks
Wow this plugin seems really cool! I would probably use it all of the time if I could afford it! (lol) Edit: Watching this channel is like watching those reality shows with really wealthy people, it's fascinating seeing people have fun with stuff I can't afford.
I think my real critique of it is just the price. There isn't really a plugin touching it in terms of features, I can't justify paying $150 for it to myself yet. As I am writing this I just noticed its on sale for $89 😬 🥵
If you like Life, you should check out Orbit by ADSR. Its a MIDI sequencer like Life and you can even do some shenanigans with randomness. I think it would be right up your alley!
if you ever see this, one of my favorite sounds EVER is your last "reverse" drop in the OG simulation. if you ever have the chance to break it down you would make my day sir
Urgghhh, Virtual Riot, grrraaattt video! It wassss like, uh, brrraaiiinsss, totally insane! Congratssss on making my zombie heart beat with excitement! 🧟♂️🎉
Suggestion for them at least to me would be to make the plugin syncable to the project tempo and have the sample length be measure in bars instead of seconds
Hey man! I was going to go to the Kemistry show in Fort Lauderdale but I couldn’t go. I was wondering how it went, and how you liked it. If I could recommend another place in SFL, iThink Amphitheater reaches a lot of ppl and ODESZA almost sold out last year.
Life was a bit pricey for me, I use a combination of loopmix, koala sampler (to record and export to Ableton) and a Dillon Bastan m4l device called Coalescence, for the neural map stuff.

These vids dropping right when I get out of work is incredibly convenient
Your show at The Ave was absolutely amazing dude :D Can't wait to see you live again.
You single handedly sold me this product and they should really give you a share of it.
And by the way the melodic pattern that came out made me think that Rolando had this in the early 2000s to make Knights of the Jaguar(Or Isolee for Beau Mot Plage)
Been watching your studio times for a while and finally was able to see your show out in Fresno! Cheers!
I thought I was gonna get a motivation speech from the title
I use Life all the time to get intersting perc / top loops. It's been such a big help. I hate doing perc stuff, because i'm really bad at it doing it by hand. This really, really helps me.
Thanks for your tutorial :) I'll need to try the melodic stuff too.
It's a pleasure to have a genius as a teacher
This is perfect timing, just this morning I started planning a project to record kitchen sounds as a random percussion
YES MORE VIRTUAL RIOT VIDEO
the title almost got me LMAO.
These videos are always so entertaining and inspiring, please keep going ❤
XLN has a really good sample library organizer plugin thingy too for those who dont know. Game changer.
Thanks for coming down to Austin btw. Your set was the bees knees with extra cheese! And hilarious as always lol.
much love

@@bodi.mp3 I googled it, XO it's called. Looks quite interesting and you can edit the samples. Gonna try out the trial!
yeah they copy Atlas by Algonaut

life does rock!
thats one crazy plugin. random grooves will be fun to create
Just now bought this plugin.. because of this video. Seems like a ton of fun!
How much was it????
I have it and can't drag and drop directly from the DAW. Does yours do this too?
How much
Tbh this is crazy! its actually generates so many ideas in seconds 😯
cool song!!!
It’s the color changing logo that’s making me want to buy it. It’s alive!
Been loving the randomizer kick
Wow, thats a pretty sick tool. Thanks for sharing!
"Happy slicing and generative music making" ur the best bro fr
A+ on the walkthrough. Thanks!
The multi-out is the clincher.
XLN is a real pro for that shit.
2:38 I already imagine these drums as an intro or drop in a Future Garage track by Virtual Riot
I find this plugin very interesting :0
It's 6 am and I watching this 🔥
vortual riot is on another level of production
I bought the plugin before I even finished the video lol. This is gonna totally level up my process
at 4:20 i totally get basic channel vibes haha reminds me of phylyps trak
What is the meaning of Life??
To fight against Evil.
GAME CHANGER! OMG!
idk if I'll ever take advantage of this, so I'll put it here in case someone else does. This could easily be used for an automatic/random hocket device, just by putting in a bunch of tonal one shots in the same key like he was saying, you could get some sick results.
I wonder if that really is different than slicing stuff in Sampler and placing arps before? Nice video as usual!
The sort of auto-categorization of slices really helps with making the randomly generated loops make sense, however I’m currently trying to expand on this idea with some ableton devices 😁
100% checking out the demo
such a lifechanger...

Damn, this plugin seems very powerful. The examples you demonstrated reminds me of C418's music with random foley incorporated
near my home!!!! how i didnt realize days ago, hope to see ya soon in kemistry🥲
That's actually pretty cool looks fun to play around with
This video was so inspiring! Thank you so much!
NEW VIDEO LET'S GOOOOO
Wow this plugin seems really cool! I would probably use it all of the time if I could afford it! (lol)
Edit: Watching this channel is like watching those reality shows with really wealthy people, it's fascinating seeing people have fun with stuff I can't afford.
Good ideas, thanks. I already have life and I have used melodic samples to make other melodies however there are ideas here that I wish to try.
And here I was genuinely thinking that VR was going to give us life advice
I think my real critique of it is just the price. There isn't really a plugin touching it in terms of features, I can't justify paying $150 for it to myself yet. As I am writing this I just noticed its on sale for $89 😬 🥵
Fr?? :0
God bless You, man. And all of Yoy, boys & girls))) and always be creative)
I am too early,.. I must watch it all
You can get it for 50% less on their website. Such an amazing plugin. Nuff said!!!
🔥🔥🔥
damn thats crazy

what is in that "racist samples" folder 🤨
He explained this already in a different video. I believe it was a folder filled with foreign sounding loops, but I’m not sure
Yeah, he already explained it in an older video. That explanation below seems right.
If I had a dollar for every time someone asked that question I'd have enough to afford that plugin he showcased here...
He's actually keeping 3 little children from Ghana there working full time making beats or he's beating them idk
@@catdisc5304that’s a sketchy way to name something
so sick!! woot woot
THANK YOU BRO!
if you ever see this, one of my favorite sounds EVER is your last "reverse" drop in the OG simulation. if you ever have the chance to break it down you would make my day sir
ultimate beat plugin. imma try for my jungle
Oh my god I didn’t know you could drag a frozen midi clip into an audio track. Thanks.
it should fits perfect with plugins like Portal, Infiltrator, EFX Fragments, etc
i thought this was gonna be like , life advice , but it was something Much better wowe
saw the video title and thought VR was about to start his lifestyle guru self-help series
Same. I was like this is gonna be effin awesome
I’m sorry. Hollow tips is a forever banger
Very cool!
So cool!
Urgghhh, Virtual Riot, grrraaattt video! It wassss like, uh, brrraaiiinsss, totally insane! Congratssss on making my zombie heart beat with excitement! 🧟♂️🎉
Yo what is this comment lmao
I’m undead 💀💀💀
@@korlmusic 💀💀💀lmao
Randomizing things make everything interesting even life
1:40 I wanted to make sure y'all knew I had this idea like 10 years ago and I have the notes file to prove it
Perfect tool for remixing imho 😉😎
tha four tet generator
Five Tet
i still want this plugin!
I really hope he shows off the new chroma vst from paperskies, it looks so good
Suggestion for them at least to me would be to make the plugin syncable to the project tempo and have the sample length be measure in bars instead of seconds
I think you can do almost all of the same features with an ableton live drum rack and the same sample sliced in different pads
a brian full of creativity
a brian full of creativity
because of the title i tought somehow this episode would be a philosophical one lol
I wasn’t going to buy this until you mentioned four yet and bonobo
2:53 Classic dad pun haha
Hey man! I was going to go to the Kemistry show in Fort Lauderdale but I couldn’t go. I was wondering how it went, and how you liked it. If I could recommend another place in SFL, iThink Amphitheater reaches a lot of ppl and ODESZA almost sold out last year.
And on the flip side this plugin promote turn sounds into one scale and 15seconds.
That’s power even without the plugin.
man this is so coool !!
i wish there's a way to do this without that plugin, im broke 😭
When I first saw this plugin I thought it would be awesome for mudpies. But that 15 second limit is a bummer
I love you all and hope you’re happy in life. That is all. ❤
Get lemon 4
Can the slices be triggered by midi?
Hah Fl Studio in Corner - Slicex 😆
Dude shouted out perfume im happy
Life was a bit pricey for me, I use a combination of loopmix, koala sampler (to record and export to Ableton) and a Dillon Bastan m4l device called Coalescence, for the neural map stuff.
im gonna throw bass sounds in there
Seems pretty cool to me.
