    Even though it was pretty simple, it was very informative. I put this to one of the best tutorials that any music student needs. it went straight to the point and was very clear about the subject, tips added but related to the topic and not other crappy long talk tips you do not need. if everybody could learn something on tutorials such as this, music producers could learn more. instead we hear a lot of bullshit on these videos and we go back uninspired and we decided to self-teach in a long frustrating and boring way.

    Do you have any tips or videos for different types of transitions techniques especially the more subtle ones used in minimal or dark techno? Thats the part I think I struggle most with when turning my loops into a track. I really enjoy making loops and sounds but find making tracks a laborious pain. I feel like i'm having to pointlessly drag out an exciting idea i make and fit it into a generic formula to turn it into a product. The way I produce i end up having about 10 loops that work well and will be the climax of my track all playing together. Then I use the arrangement to gradually add in part by part until I can play all the loops together for the main part that I already created before I started arranging. I also find my productions end up getting to repetitive as they are all based from loops just being dropped in and back out.

    • @C4millee99
      @C4millee99 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I get what you’re saying!
      To make transitions more interesting, you can try beat cuts + vocal samples, or just beat cuts themselves. Or you can use a riser or pad with a long attack or filter sweep or reverse cymbal to transition. To achieve subtlety, you can try lowering the cutoff so these elements are barely audible or just hidden in the mix.
      If the transition from one loop to another sounds jarring, try keeping two elements the same from one loop to another so there is some familiarity for the listener.
      Also! To keep repetitive loops interesting, I try to add/swap in one new element each time a loop repeats. In the creative process, you could start by building a loop that is very busy, and subtract certain elements and end up having several slightly modified versions of each loop that each have different elements removed from your ‘full’ busy loop.
      As well, it can help to shorten the length of loops and shorten the time it takes to change something around. What I mean is change your 16 bar loops to 8 bar loops, and add/drop elements to/from the loop every 2 bars or 4 bars. For instance, you could try adding a shaker or tambourine or sfx 4 bars into an 8 bar loop.

    @gibbonschip 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for this great lesson. I'm a little confused about the "breakdown" in the middle. I've learned about the drop in house music but this seems different, cause the drop has a build and then the drop starts back in with a big bass and some changes to the music. Looks like the breakdown is pretty quiet here. Thx.

  • @paul6925
    @paul6925 4 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @MentalBlue
    @MentalBlue 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    There is a lot of variety in structure and the basic structure is different in house, deep house, tech house, techno and so on. It can be similar but it realy depends. You showed us here a sausage structure (intro, theme, drop, theme, outro) This is often a little bit boring if you do not have at least 2 drops and theme1 and V2 of theme1 after drop 2. 16 bars is just a measure and its ok but it can be boring without a quallity playful structure and arrangement.

      Ableton, I would recommend is although it takes a bit of practice to get into a good work flow. I was making cool wacky songs really fast in FL but now my work takes much longer but is very intricate.
      Really depends on what type of music you're making, I make experimental acid techno, for some people making more generic stuff work speed can be very fast.

    • @fuzywazacolin
      @fuzywazacolin 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Shanike De silva It took me two tries to finally convert to Ableton. You'll find there's a lot of things that Ableton simplified that in Fl are kind of a headache. For example Ableton's automation is all in one lane whereas Fl if you're trying to modulate 10 things at once, that's 10 tracks that need to be filled on the point of the timeline. Audio clip quantization is far better, emphasis on far. The interface looks a bit daunting at first but you'll be gravy after a week.
