This should be shown to all the people that dismiss Adam as a musical lightweight. He is an absolute master of sound and all the more brilliant for being self-taught.
Crazy finding you here! You were my childhood, now I'm grown up and making music of my own, but I can't deny that you had a maaassive influence on me ehehe
Oh my goodness... To finally get a peak into his studio is a dream come true! When I first started making music all I did was listen to his music and pick apart every individual layer of the track and study it. He was my inspiration for every note I played 3 years ago. He taught me to expand my view on other artists to finally create my own sound! - Thank You Adam!
so good! would love to see a tutorial on how you do your pads, they're always so nice and textured and pads in general are just really hard to do imo...
dude , this is fantastic ! , really great tutorial , I thought u used some kinda drum Machine and throw the samples there , but the way u arrange everything in the timeline its pretty amazing , it almost feels like someone hitting an acoustic drum kit and gettin' those sounds from it hahah , really cool !
i would love to see a whole series of adam just going through his tracks and explaining all the little details of what he finds interesting in his own music. so cool
Thank you so much! I've always wanted a tutorial from you! But what would be even more awesome than this is if you did a tutorial for your older style of music. (first 3 albums)
Adam thanks a lot for the video. It's great to get tutorials from people professionally in the industry. Music is a passion of mine and it's great to see how similar my workflow is to yours. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for sharing!!! This is honestly what keeps me inspired watching other artists and their obsessions with strange sounds. The oddest one I had was feedback from unplugging/replugging the mic whilst recording. Awful awful sound but ended up with a cool gravitational pull kind of sound! Xx
dude, this is incredible. i've loved your music since in june and have been producing since 2010, so getting a glimpse into your process is an absolute treat. more, please!
Love this! I've enjoyed listening to your music and its evolution over the years, so it's fascinating to see a bit of the behind the scenes process. Keep up the good work, I look forward to hearing more from you in the future. 😊
Adam! This is beyond inspirational, dude! I'm actually blown away that you put so much time into finding your own unique sounds for songs! Thanks for sharing and I'd love to hear more!
I absolutely love videos like this. I don't know why, but I kept laughing while watching this. Adam, I love all of your work, and I hope that you upload videos like this in the future!
holy crap this is so crazyyyyy! thanks so much for giving us some insight into how u put all these ‘ordinary’ sounds together and made music. WOW this is so cool, i wish there were more of these videos
This is so awesome! I love how every little sound you don't really think about just casually listening to the song has a story behind it, it gives the music so much more meaning and individuality. Thanks, Adam!
I love stuff like this, hope you do it again as it's always nice to hear from you and to get an insight into your process is very humanising and thoughtful of you 🙂
I love this! Definitely gonna be taking this advice. You inspired me to make music, and I will follow you no matter what turn your music takes. You're truly inspiring, Adam. Thank you for all that you do.
You are such a hero, dude!!! Ever since I first heard you back when with the Fireflies track, I told all my buddies you were class. You really have cemented your talent with this years score projects! Thanks for being a huge inspiration, man!
Very cool to see this. I really enjoyed watching and hope you do more of these. I never knew just how many custom samples you used in your songs like this. Also I'd love to see something like this for some of your older Owl City songs from All Things Bright and Beautiful or Ocean Eyes. Those songs had some really nice subtle melodies going on.
These kind of videos are amazing! As an aspiring artist it's a dream come true to see how your favorite artist produces his music. So inspirational! Please do more!
Aah, been messing around with custom sampling recently and I love mixing it with synths just to get that organic/acoustic vibe in the middle of everything. The slapback and splash were really awesome! They really made nice build-ups to the beat. Now I know what to try next, heh.. Hope you'll continue doing these! Thanks!
Umm.. I just discovered this today and I’m kind of blown away!! I already love the “Adam Young projects” but this makes you really appreciate just how much work goes into the music. Super cool process. It’s probably a lot of work, but you should def make more of these videos. Also, you’ve got a really great podcast voice lol
ha. love this. I have a boss br-600 that's a great sample taker. been plugging the samples into either Iris 1 or 2, and going from there. love creating the sounds and I know it's stuff no one has heard before. thanks for the layering show.
Came back to this video after he just did the fireflies breakdown to celebrate FIREFLIES DIAMOND!!! But i love watching these and Adam!! I really hope you do more!!! Right now SO EXCITED FOR ADAM, CHECK PLEASE ❤❤
Wow, this is amazing!!! So helpful too, thank you!!! I recently became very excited to try and make music, so any little tip about it from my favorite artist is greatly appreciated!!! So glad I found this video.
OMG how have I just found this now?? I'm actually in the middle of listening to Corduroy Road right now! It is INCREDIBLE to see the work that goes into this songs. You're right, Adam. They do sound like you. Amazing
It's nice to see how the personality of each of the tracks can combine to a greater whole that brings you to a totally different place. Great tutorial!

A tutorial by Adam Young. Dreams don't turn to dust.
Best comment
A tutorial by Flames Pond*
Mind-blowing. I appreciate the music so much more now :D
They *might* turn into tutorials
@@ptrdblmeterhaha
It's kinda crazy how every layer of the beat has its own back-story.
This should be shown to all the people that dismiss Adam as a musical lightweight. He is an absolute master of sound and all the more brilliant for being self-taught.
Can you imagine the percussion section if this song were performed live?
"I'll play the green pepper. Johnny's got the shotgun."
hahahaha, lol
I literally just learned so much about you in like 5 minutes.
dude same
If you don't know it, this is Shackleton off of The Endurance. If you don't believe me, go listen to it.
Holy smokes, it is!
holy crap it is!! wooooow
I was looking for this comment! Thank you!
This is why Adam has the most unique music on Earth.
For those wondering, this song is "Shackleton" released as part of one of Adam Young's scores album, "The Endurance"
That moment when you find a tutorial by your fave musician... Only one word. Rad.
Who knew that biting apples and ripping bell peppers could sound so good? haha
Biting an apple.
*four of them*
HMPH!
"see you next time" *adam it has been 4 years*
2021 mood
6 years
"This is the action on my shotgun." XD I don't know why, I just love hearing those words coming from Adam Young.
This was a really great watch, thanks so much for putting this together for us Adam.
Keep doing what you love, you've inspired my music so much.
Crazy finding you here! You were my childhood, now I'm grown up and making music of my own, but I can't deny that you had a maaassive influence on me ehehe
Oh my goodness...

- Thank You Adam!
I love how he casually tells the world he has a shotgun, and goes yeah I use it for foley.
If you ever get tired of making music for consumers, you have a guaranteed career in sound design for film. This is superb
so good! would love to see a tutorial on how you do your pads, they're always so nice and textured and pads in general are just really hard to do imo...
wrld
Oh wow WRLD!
Alex Michael Music when u find a cool artist asking another cool artist for some pointers
I asked him once on Twitter about what he used for his pads and he said he really liked ES2 on Logic
woahhhh didn't expect to see you here
dude , this is fantastic ! , really great tutorial , I thought u used some kinda drum Machine and throw the samples there , but the way u arrange everything in the timeline its pretty amazing , it almost feels like someone hitting an acoustic drum kit and gettin' those sounds from it hahah , really cool !
Sup gato
Very inspiring, and amazing tutorial! Thanks so much!
Wow, didn't expect to see you here. You also here from Reddit?
Incredible, thank you for the insight. Hope you have time to do more of these in the future!
I make music myself, and I started because of you. Thanks for making this, and I hope you make more!
It's very comforting to know that when I listen to his music, I'm actually hearing sounds from his entire life.
Are you gonna do more tutorials? I really want to see how you make an Owl City song.
You should show us what Fireflies broken down looks like
Yes please!
Your dream came all these years later lol
@@potatopotatopotatopotatopo8746 only took 7 years :’)
adams voice i love this man🙈😭❤️
THIS. IS. A. DREAM.
A Lucid Dream.
That's how you study the stars, after all.
This video is probably the most under appreciated thing in existence
indeed
i would love to see a whole series of adam just going through his tracks and explaining all the little details of what he finds interesting in his own music. so cool
casually mentions shotgun.... nbd.
that's so badass dude
Please do more of these, this was really cool!
Wow, this is really fascinating. Thank you so much for making this, It's incredibly helpful
Sup fritzy
Even Skies Hi ho Even ;D Fancy seeing you here :3
we both love the city of owls so it is only fitting. x3
Honestly I see the owl city fan base in covers, remixes, scores, and inspired videos. We should all make a group on facebook or something 😂😂
I mean we all see each other in random comments on random videos I think a group chat or club would be awesome
Thank you so much! I've always wanted a tutorial from you! But what would be even more awesome than this is if you did a tutorial for your older style of music. (first 3 albums)
Adam thanks a lot for the video. It's great to get tutorials from people professionally in the industry. Music is a passion of mine and it's great to see how similar my workflow is to yours. Keep up the good work!
Adam is a real musical genius , only less people could realize his awesomeness
“See you next time”
Still waiting Adam
This is amazing! I wish I was as talented as you, dude. Could you maybe break down a few of your songs? I would love to see Umbrella Beach! Please? :)
Thank you for sharing!!! This is honestly what keeps me inspired watching other artists and their obsessions with strange sounds. The oddest one I had was feedback from unplugging/replugging the mic whilst recording. Awful awful sound but ended up with a cool gravitational pull kind of sound! Xx
'if it sounds good, it is good.' lotta folks have said that, but when i heard it coming from u, i remembered it
love seeing your process, Adam!
This is absolutely fantastic. Please do more of these! 🙏🏼
"The gratuitous dadadas I tend to do"
Hahaha that was hilarious
I really hope you make more tutorials like this. Your music is amazing and seeing your production tips is great!
You are so resourceful and this is pretty dope. Thanks for sharing!

Simple and truly informative. Thank you so much for posting!

Just a musical genius at work! Love this.
Thanks for the video man! You've inspired me to mess around in logic a bit and work on some of my own music - this video was super helpful.
This is great! I’ve been getting into working on music in Logic lately, this is so cool! Thanks!
Thanks for this snippet into your genius, Adam! I really look forward to hearing your November album.
Ugh you're so precious, Adam. Thank you; I needed this today.
Excellent composition, Adam. Thanks for sharing!

I love this! Definitely gonna be taking this advice. You inspired me to make music, and I will follow you no matter what turn your music takes. You're truly inspiring, Adam. Thank you for all that you do.
Love this. So neat to get what is essentially a private lesson from someone that has inspired me so much!
I fell in love with this track the first time I heard it.. the beat is insane!!! Really enjoyed hearing where the sounds originated from!
So interesting to watch, hope this will be like an ongoing series cos I loved this
You are such a hero, dude!!! Ever since I first heard you back when with the Fireflies track, I told all my buddies you were class. You really have cemented your talent with this years score projects! Thanks for being a huge inspiration, man!

This was so insightful and inspirational! Thank you so much Adam! I would love to see more of this type of video from you sometime in the future! :D
At first, I thought this channel was not the real Adam Young until I heard his voice. lol
You are what inspired me to start making music a few years ago and this video really does remind me why I love doing it. Please make more! :)
This makes me so excited! Please make more omg.
This is amazing and really inspiring, thank you for all your hard work, excited to see more!
this is so awesome. I've never heard him talking about production like this. better than any interview!!!
Aah, been messing around with custom sampling recently and I love mixing it with synths just to get that organic/acoustic vibe in the middle of everything. The slapback and splash were really awesome! They really made nice build-ups to the beat. Now I know what to try next, heh.. Hope you'll continue doing these! Thanks!
