Join us at OCL studios in Alberta for the second MWTM series with Illangelo! In this instalment, the Grammy award-winning producer and engineer gives you a detailed mix walkthrough of ‘After Hours’ by the Weeknd. With the Ableton session open, he explores every element of the complex project, demonstrating his workflow and revealing innovative techniques along the way. You’ll see how he used a plethora of tools to build an immersive soundscape with pristine vocals that cut through the instrumental. He shares his elaborate vocal chains, shows how he automates a variety of effects to occur at specific moments, and goes through his mix buss step by step. You’ll learn how he enhances clarity with filters, groove with intricate side-chain compression, and movement with modulation. Further to imparting his methods, Illangelo also discusses the inspiration for the record and its production process!

The Weeknd & Illangelo are a match made in heaven.
Amen❤
Something I learned. Soothe is industry standard and its so refreshing to see something other than Pro Tools for once.
Yea, about time I picked up Soothe for sure.
Honestly I’ve always hated Pro Tools’ interface and would take just about anything new. I wish Cool Edit would come back 😂
@@RookieMistakeYT not cool edit 🤣🤣🤣
This guy's work in Trilogy is just perfect
A lot of people don't get it. MWTM is the most phenomenal mixing/engineering site in the world. These series can be up to 4 hours long. The producers/mixers are the cream of the crop from around the globe. Best money I ever spent!
Quite a positive review considering your name! But I completely agree, people complain about the cost but it's an investment in self and much more affordable than college tuition.
Yeah till the biggest producers started to make live streams for free. Best money i ever saved 😅
But i also love MWTM !
i think its safe to say AFTER HOURS is one of the best produced songs;album ever
You forgot "Random Access Memories" by Daft Punk buddy😏
Been saying this
I've heard RAM on a lot of low and high quality system. It never sounded awful. It's not just one of the best produced but also one of the best engineered albums ever.
Definitely
@@pramshorevery tape
This dude's like a mad scientist of music! Amazing depth of knowledge and application.
Unbelievable song. Unbelievable production and ear for a specific sound by this man. Hope to keep seeing him and Abel working together in the future.
He's a GOAT for using Ableton for Abel!!!
It’s not that big of a deal
@@user-ux1vj9vx7s yes it is.
Is this not cubase?
@@zet0xOP no
Big fan of illangelo and the weeknd. Looking forward to watching this!!
He say words so perfectly
When I first heard the trilogy I was trying to find out who produced those masterpieces, cool to finally see the producer behind the art!
Very interesting to see him mixing inside of Ableton. I always thought past v10, with the updated Utility, Ableton was starting to shine in the mixing realm. Great video!
Pro Tools is great, but we’re at the point now with plug ins where you can get a solid mix on any DAW really, pretty much everyone where I’m from mixes on Logic, as well as a lot of Ableton guys as well
@@jwizdum2103 Logic is a great thing because it allows DAW access to a wide variety of home studios. It's no longer an exclusive thing. I will always primarily use Pro Tools because I've been trained on it, but I agree that the other DAWs can do just as well. But the efficiency of audio editing is top notch in PT imo.
whats so special about updated utility?
@@RDstar75 Primarily, it was the addition of the Bass Mono. It really cleans up the mix in terms of mid/side processing, and is so efficient to use. Same concept as the Brainworx 'Mono Maker'.
Ive got a question for all of you guys here,I saw the Alone again lessons, and have yet to watch this but... I use FL studio primarily, was thinking of trying ableton out. FL is a CPU hog. It would crash with a project like this, how does he utilize SO many plugins on just one bus? In alone again he must have used 15 effects on one sound. FL allows ten slots, but I can barely chain effects without freezing/consolidating tracks. Can ableton handle large projects better? or allow an endless plugin chain? FL has patcher, but it doesnt save CPU
Phenomenal Song and Production!!
This was actually a dope lesson. Most def worth the money 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Is it possible to buy this lesson separately?
@@DJTMusic also wondering too. That’s what I did with his alone again breakdown, but can’t seem to find how to do that with this session
@@lucifermorningstar3709 Lucifer morningstar always finds a way
@@DJTMusic this is true
@@lucifermorningstar3709 Just get a subscription. It’s well worth the money
Best song on the album!
i got a favorite music prod now
man, i'm so hyped with this one :)
Protect this gem at all costs
Man this video looks like a puzzle for a diamond 💎
He's been with the weeknd from Day 1
I NEED MORE WITH HIM AND MORE RAP ARTISTS!!! PLEASE GET 40 !!
Getting a membership for Mix with the Masters just for this
Dang bro we needed u on dawn DM man
We need Blinding Lights project ASAP.
That's Oscar Holten and Max Martin
@@grimpreacher3419 yah I know. But why they can't bring him like this with blinding lights project?
@@HP-hu8rw I think Max and Co are very secretive about how they do things. I would love to know though.
@@grimpreacher3419 yh I've never seen max explaining his productions in studio before. I think he uses his secretive sound experiments for famous artist and he doesn't want to reveal them to the world. A Hidden Legend! Lots of people don't know who's the actual Legend behind that type of amazing songs.
More Illangelo More Illangelo
appreciate all these videos , thank you
This is to advertise their overpriced video
Yer man the mixing stage is where its at. Get that sorted then the mastering will be a piece of cake.
This is one masterpiece
Please do a video with Max Martin and any of his MXM collaborators
No chance. But I agree.
@@grimpreacher3419 A jack Antonoff vid on his work with Taylor Swift would also be great. Saw he already did a Lana one
wow i look up how to remix this on youtube and you're the first video and im also in Calgary!!! Thanks bro subbed
this guy is awesome great job bro
00.47 Illangelo uses Endless Smile by Dada life.
Good catch!
Amazing!!
MASTERPIECE
We want SERBAN GHENEA! :(
we want but can't have ;)
@@CameronEarlyMusic why?? :v
@@athen33 his engineer said on gearslutz that they won't be doing it anytime soon or even at all
@@CameronEarlyMusic man that sucks. industry secrets are best kept quiet i guess
awesome as always
Yeah, now I gotta get soothe2.
Damn, I wanna see this so bad.
This is the best song on the album just like kissland was on the kissland album.
*I needed it*
YESSSS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR A YEAR FOR THIS, wish it was longer tho
Finally!
@ 1:55 just doo-doo 💩 that’s the key component
Can anyone tell me what the circle Nob is the big one that was sitting on his desk I want to buy one but I don’t know what it’s called
How did The Weeknd feel when you told him this obviously it’s great just wondering
they said "doo doo doo"
They? There's only one person in this video.
is bro gonna be on the new album?
Full version?
XO❤️
no way 🤤🤤🤤
Didn't know Ryan from The Office produced music for The Weeknd
Does anyone know which DAW he's working in?
For this vid he’s using Ableton but he’s an Cubase OG
@@josephminor-t4v Thanks!!!
Mr Illangelo which software do you use for music making
Cubase and Ableton
Lol swore the add wasn’t on your shirt until the end of the video I realize
"doodoo, doodoo" - illangelo 1:54
It's hard to watch without turning tf up
🤣🤣🤣
Illangelo is to The Weeknd what 40 is to Drake.
That was too short, killing me!
It’s a commercial. Just buy it
@@user-ux1vj9vx7s Doubt there's anything monumental, but cool to see the process.
@@kllnb8 Huh.. Is that why you complained about it being to short
@@user-ux1vj9vx7s It was more about his process and workflow. It's always cool to see how other producers do their thing. I take it you don't make music?
@@kllnb8 I have a yearly subscription. I think it’s well worth the money. Illangelo stuff is pretty cool, if you can get past listening to his goofy ass voice for a couple of hours, but their is a lot of stuff on there that I’m glad I caught

Le retour de Squeezie
Now tell me TH-cam not a whole university now
It’s not.
😤😞🥺В жизни каждого человека наступает момент жизни
А если подробнее?)
@@Jamshine 🗿я не знаю что я им ел уже в виду. Помоему это просто т9 написал за меня это и все
Squeezossss
Is it just me or did he say doodoo?
Just do do dodo
he would not wear that shirt on his own lol
Yes, but then Max Martin completely remakes the track and that's only then it becomes a hit)))
😂 thats true for A LOT of videos on utube...techniques ppl say they do, gets undone by either the mastering engineer or another producer.
Max Martin had nothing to do with this song.
First
So the producer is the mixer as well? So wait, does the track get passed to a sound engineer
Illangelo can do both. Great producer and great creative mixing engineer
The tracks that have the HIT potential get passed on to Serban Ghenea , the other ones that aren't that great , they let Illangelo mix them
@@svengali5862This guy also did the hills. Don't disrespect him like that
@@anthonyutobunwa717 Did he mix "blinding lights" or "save your tears" you know , the actual singles ?
@@svengali5862 He doesn't mix any track that he doesn't produce. He mixes and produces at the same time. Go watch the handful of livestreams on youtube of him at work. Nothing gets "passed to him" his process is simply all-encompassing. Please educate yourself before you disrespect one of the most technically gifted producers of this generation. (Also After Hours was a single and arguably one of the best songs on the record)
This Record will NEVER be remembered.
Why not?
Blinding Lights broke records…
This is such a reminder of what’s wrong with music today.
I’ve followed for multiple years but, we got a couple midis man. Don’t act like this is life changing.
This suffered from the fact that you wanted a concise video.illangelo could have given everyone so much more info without the harsh cuts and a lengthier video. At its current state, this is click bait bullshit.
It's a preview, you have to buy the video series. This is on purpose.
It’s more like a trailer. The full thing on their website. I mean, it literally says that in the description…
Dude, take the stick out of your ass. This is a sample. I had a MWTM membership and a series like this is typically 3 hours long. The site is PHENOMENAL.
I'm literally laughing at the stupidity of this comment.
