@@liveen Very wise words bro
@@Meezzz collab bro
@@liveen how bout *no*
Loving that Serum skin on Sylenth!
Lol... Dude🤣🤣 I thought it's spire🤧🤣
Lol only had to go 2 comments down
Hahah x)
I realized that just now when I saw this comment.
Woah that bass on that second pattern is sick, could you make a video on how you make such a strong bass?🔥🔥
"Imma just go into sylenth here"
*Opens Serum*
You're saying he should have said "go into Serum here" and opened Sylenth?
DON'T THINK SO
5:25 That's called a dotted eight rhythm. In a triplet rhythm all notes are equally long, but in a dotted eight rhythm you have two notes with a 3/16 lenght and one with a 1/8 length :)
I love your content . dude you're literally a saint to us producers just finding our way through it all. Thank you Alex
This was absolutely brill, changed so much of my concept and the way I thought edm was composed! I'm on it man and in just the 8 mins of watching all has been answered
Amazing work! It's been my dream to make music. I will check out your boot camp. Thank you so much for this content!
I love watching these so much! They really are useful. I’ve learned a lot about this stuff in just the span of a few days. It’s awesome!
I really enjoy that video and you kept it so simple using the same chords, but simply used different sound, great advice
5:26 "what's called a triplet rythm" actually it's three quadruplet based notes with the last one shorted by one sixteenth to fit the two beats. This rythm is straight not swing like triplets which are three evenly spaced notes over 2 beat.
thank you finally I'm not the only one noticing this
@@ethannash8871 honestly I've been working with a lot of producers, and they usually call a triplet rhythm a 3/4 measure. Only "S3rl - 3 to the floor" does that correctly
@@Yvory music theory is just getting lost in translation to lots of producers I guess
To be fair, this is what most (amateur) musicians play, when they're told to play triplets. And it drives me crazy every single time. ;)
@@markuskopter I usually leave good enough alone and accept the wrong usage, but sometimes I just gotta vent haha
Massive congrats to your student!👏👏 I hope to do that one day as well! Thanks sooooo much for the video as well, it was really helpful.👍
Thank you for everything you do Alex! ♥️
love the way you teach. I keep watching this over and over, making me want to buy serum to get some of those awesome pluck sounds
Loved this video! I'm very new to making music and im constantly looking for tips and advice on improving my music. This was extremely helpful, thank you so much!
Your tutorials are amazing for kickstarting creativity. I make VERY different music from you (Psytrance) but you have so many awesome & universal little tricks. Oh and I used that first progression in a song I wrote on guitar many years ago - nice to hear it used like this! Thank you.
As always, a wicked tutorial,
Keep em coming mate 👍.
This may be the best producing video I’ve ever watched. Unbelievable stuff here
Alex I'm genuinely happy that I've now stepped up my game to the point that I'm no longer getting 20 percent better from each video. But I'm very thankful that I found your channel about one year ago now. So now I've gathered enough knowledge that I already know about the things you're teaching other people in your videos here on TH-cam. But without your videos I wouldn't have gotten to this point this fast, no way. Thank you!
Absolutely love Rameses B's music. I have definitely been loving tracks as well
fantastic tips. thank you very much
You're the gift that keeps on giving!
3:12 i love thatttttttt its so simple but it sounds so good
I am so glad he is using GarageBand, this is the first tutorial I have found that I can actually follow along with.
Solid video homie! Simple but useful stuff worth trying out
Thank you so much Alex! Ur so helpful!!
Nice, concise tutorial and pro arrangement! Valhalla plugs are sweet stuff.
There are soo many things that changed this guys life! Literally tooooooooooooooooooo many.
Btw, thanks for helping man
This video helped a lot thank you!
Excellent technique, thank you so much 👍🏼🌞
Thank you for this Alex!
Thank you for this great lesson!
beautiful song, thanks for sharing your gift with us
Exactly what I need! Thanks man!
I was thinking Rameses B and hearing a sick dnb track just seconds before you mentioned it haha, awesome video!
Bro this is so clean! Love the sound!
This is gold right here 😍, thank you much 👌
thanks for the tips man i learned a lot and i already notice this pattern but still unclear but its clear now
Thanks for sharing!
I don't stop, your video is perfect! Get your like. Thanks so much again!
Another Underrated Channel
You're so Underrated , the second Song gave me chill !
Recently discovered your channel and I love the content I've seen. Will be checking more out.
Thanks for another video, very useful!
Man, I haven't listened to Rameses in awhile! Gonna have to get back into him now.
Very helpful!! Thank you!
Dope stuff.. Ty brother
Awesome video. Thx
As always, great tips Alex 👍
OMG that track at the end! Thats just the uplifting style I love and wanna learn! You make me want to try hard. The thing is I have no idea about notes and stuff.
But since I found your channel I'm putting out that Akai mini which I bough a few years ago and never had a go at it. Now waiting for my MacBook and I'm starting trying hard to learn how to make EDM in Logic. I mean its corona time and I have some spare time since I'm a freelancer. Love your work and ill keep watching! seeing you make things look simple its a joy!
subbed and liked like always!
Rameses b was one of my first introductions to chill edm. The airy, echo-delayed plucks definitely feels similar.
Rameses is the man. Visionary puts me in such a good place, like flipping a light switch. Time to go listen to it now.
Alex I remember when you had like less than 30k subs and you were figured out chords from Martin Garrix. Now you're full-grown and I'm incredibly proud of you. Keep going bro!!
everytime i watch ur vids i get inspired
Love Rameses B. That definitely reminded me of some of his tracks 👌🏻
Was thinking the same. Always been a fan of rameses b
"sylenth"
Lol saw that too 😂
What’s so funny? Sylenth is my og synth. Been with me since day one.
@@AlexRome you opened serum and said sylenth
@@AlexRome it's serum not sylenth dude 👍
Ya lol serum is legit. Never even touched sylenth.
very cool
thank you sir
i learn a lot
Helpful video bro, thanks for making this
Loving these tutorials!
love it!!!!
it's so amazing !!
Thanks a lot bra.....am always learning!
Thanks for this video series
Very informative! Good job! and hell yeah, Rameses B is a legend!!
Helped a lot
that "triplet rhythm" is another type of dotted rhythm
Yeah, triplets are 3 equal notes in the span of one beat, idk why so many people say that's a triplet
Indeed.
was about to comment the same but u beat me to it haha
@@Tarro57 Because when beginners first try to play real crotchet (1/4 note) triplets, the dotted quaver (1/8 note) rhythm is what they end up with at first.
And I like how he describes it as 'three quarters of a quarter bar' and similar. Reinventing language in order to avoid learning it.
Very good tips that are great!!
I subscribed your videos help a lot!
Wow one of the best trick, Nice
I learned something thank you so much man
WOW , exactamente lo que buscaba
Saludos desde Morelia, México

U r awesome brother !
I wish main bhi kbhi aapke level ka ho paau.
U r great bro !!!
Nice ideas. Cheers.
Love this video
Wow! That's beautiful! :)
Thank you very much
You're a wizard bro thanks for this!
Very nice!
The chords and synth sounds playing the sounds on 3:33 are amazing! super epic! any chance you can make a tutorial on making those chords and synth sound? thank you!
Best music instructor ever 👍👍👍
Love this
Boot Camp and Alex Rome content 100% legit!
Don't you just love it when you know a sound then see a technique and think 'ah, that's how to do it'. Reinventing the wheel is pointless when we can be standing on the shoulders of giants. Thank you.
What about originality and creative ways to do music? Not everything has to sound the same :)
@@markov622 Oh I agree. Creativity and experimentation are as important as technical knowledge.
Dude! Totally Rameses B! One of my fav producers.
I've had Rameses B on my playlists for years 😍
Thanks so much!
Yes thank you Alex you're the best
That was really cool 😎
This is amazing.
thank you !!!!!
Try messing around with scotch snaps, it's a widely used technique that most listeners don't realise they've internalised from a ton of music they listen to already!
That's so dope!!!
This was actually very helpful💜🌎🙌
Rameses B is awesome! I love Full Force, Digidrop and Pulsefire Ezreal!
Nice one bro!
Thanks for the layering tips, but I think there is a quicker way to make the edits from long notes to short plucks. Select the chord you want to split up and move the playhead to the place where you want to cut and use command + t. Even faster: switch to the scissor tool!
3:25 is super wavy. I need the full song!
For real though
Definitely
Giving me full on Gryffin vibes man I love it!
@@JovanLJH and said the sky!
what's the definition for this type of sound? Airy? Ive been trying to get this vibe for months, but I don't know how its called.
Dude! Ramses B is awesome! Been listening to him since the beginning.
5:25 thats still a dotted rhythm not a triplet. Just a different dotted rhythm. Great video tho, I have learned so much sound design from you
Thank you I was just about to say this.
I’ve been in band for 8 years now, a freshman in college, and marched a season of drum corps. I’m blown away at how many people think that dotted 8th dotted 8th 8th is a quarter note triplet. I guess it’s a very common misinterpretation.
Is it not a tresillo which I think translates as "false triplet"?
@@MrClarkio I don't think that's a real thing
@@MrClarkio i never heard of such thing tbh
Much Love
Rameses B is dope. I need you is the jam for sure.
