Congratulations on your presentation as well as your producer skills. It's a huge breath of fresh air, to find a producer which goes straight to the point, doesn't feel the pressure to be "edgy" or cynical or indulge the infamous "TH-camr humor", yet you're charming and entertaining. Very enjoyable and instructive video. Love your composition too
one of the most underrated production channels! You have amazing skills, great taste and a clean type of presentation that helps a lot to understand what is going on. love your stuff!🌼
Only using OEM plugins is blessed. Too many people buy into "needing" all these 3rd-party plugins and sleep on what they have. Native devices also use less CPU. You're doing the Lord's work here.
@@khartbeats you're welcome :) I primarily use Bitwig (or Live with my APC64), which lets me do some incredible things using the native devices that I can't with VSTs. It's the LEGOs of DAWs lol. Quick example: I can put a Reverb inside the reverb tank of another Reverb device. Or a Chorus. Or a Vocoder, or Resonator Bank. It gets wild XD
What's so great about these tutorials are that you don't use anything other than the Ableton resources and show how to really dig into them to get really great effects. Thank you so much for this one as I've created something in 45 minutes that I never thought I'd be able to do!
As an absolute beginner in Ableton and music, I find it simply fantastic how you go into all the subtleties and explain them in such detail ❤ . It's also great that you mostly refer to the Ableton integrated tools. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your wonderful TH-cam channel 🫶.
Hey, I just wanted to say that this is a really good tutorial. Using the Ableton stock tools is great for us beginners who are trying to learn and improve without investing in new latest and greatest plugins all the time. Thank you!
You are seriously the best, the way you carry yourself in your videos and present the information is so so professional and fun! Thank you for sharing your knowledge
a pleasure - like everyone else says, you've got a really engaging and matter of fact teaching manner. If you get a chance to do something on working in arrangement view as opposed to session view I'd find that helpful - I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but stuff keeps diappearing when I enter notes in arrangement view!@@khartbeats
@@chrisnewman9693I usually work in arrangement view these days like this video. I finish a lot more of my tracks starting from there rather than session view. Do things disappear when you switch from one to the other?
I was a sound engineer at a record label in the late 90s but I had no idea what sleepy beats were. Lol. Had to click on the video. I've been doubly educated. So thank you for your video. That was really interesting. Okay, I'm away for a sleep. 😊❤
I am so glad I found your channel. Your teaching style is a breath of fresh air. Using stock Ableton capabilities is superb. You inject clarity into each step that makes it all so easy to learn and use. I am so tired of the "10 best plugins......" mantra. I am a fan. Thank you!
You have amazing musical taste and knowledge! I am enjoying learning from your videos so much, and I love how you break all these genres down. Thank you!
This is insightful, clear and and simply very good production content. Relevant to my current interests in long form improvised guitar over beats like this for the sleep music space. Thanks!
Very very cool video. Thank you - learnt loads of ideas! Really well presented, easy to follow and to the point. Tons to take away from this. Awesomeness!
Amazing, I really liked the detail level. ❤ There are more things to learn in this 16 minutes video than you can learn in hours and hours of content out there. Subscribed.
I always forget just how much free stuff is included with Ableton. I’m going to just play around with a bunch of stuff this week and see what sticks Thanks for the great tutorial!
Sounds really nice! Your videos truly exemplify the idea that less is more and that you don't need fancy plugins to make good music. Underrated channel in this space for sure.
Muy buena guía.....la verdad lo que buscaba.....la canción es simple pero muy hermosa....los sonidos ......los efectos.....las texturas ......felicidades...
Super excited about Dillon’s work and how everyone is using it! It would be lovely to see more videos that breakdown your sonic explorations and your process! Thanks for all the music over the years…
Instant subscription. Honey you're saying all the right things and coming up with all the right sounds simply music to my ears! You have a beautiful soul
Nice vid. I'm trying to use more of the but in plugins in Live these days. It's easy to ignore them just because we didn't directly pay for them like a 3rd party one. For example I didn't know the but in reverb HAD a shimmer option. Cool stuff, thanks for taking the time to make this.
Fantastic video! Thank you for this. I searched every corner of TH-cam to finally find a combination of great instruction and tasteful musical examples. By the way, this track got me thinking about possibly adding binaural beats. There’s a whole science behind brain entrainment sounds to help induce meditation and deep states of brain activity. I use those types of audios for meditation all the time. I think you could make something excellent in that genre. 😎
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. I haven’t really delved into the world of binaural beats, but I’ve heard of them and definitely find the idea interesting. Thanks for checking out the videos! 🙂
New to your channel and it’s been inspirational…I’ve been binging 😂 keep up the great content!! I needed to see these…to get out of my own way…and just make music.
I never thought about automating thr freeze like it's a sustain pedal on a piano. That's brilliant! Need to try that myself. Ive always just gone full freeze, bounced it and cut it up. I feel stulid now 😅
Greetings, I'm new to your channel and completely hooked B-) Did you ever dive into ambient music as such? ... thinking plenty of chords, some drone and the occasional little narration with physical sounds, or some tiny melody fading in and out. I know, even more sleepy it seems, but hold on, the amount of space for multiple planes is immense! One also gets the opportunity to use every inch of that wide soundstage to fill the whole room with structure and story ... amazing stuff for experienced ears. Time for some binging now ;)
I love your videos! you could make videos of how to do lofi like the artists casiio , sleepermane , no spirit and some of the lofi girl label? they have a very calm vibe , greetings!
I was wondering if you could share where you got that clock-like percussion sound you use? I can't quite find something similar in ableton that I like. Thank you for your awesome content!
I’m pretty sure it’s from one of the Toby Schay packs on Splice. Don’t remember which one, but all of those packs have some pretty cool percussion samples. And thanks for checking out the video!

Much appreciated…it’s definitely easy to get sucked into the “I need this plugin” black hole. Thank you 🙂

@@Emily_M81 Bitwig looks fun. I haven’t tried it. But I do enjoy the crazy effects chains you can nest in Ableton, too!
Thank you... this is exactly how i would explain stuff to a good friend ... feels really supportive rather than "lectured" ... very good !
That’s great to hear. Thanks for the feedback!
Just wanted to send a shout-out. Love your channel. Love your teaching style. Hope to see some new videos coming out soon.

Thanks! And very true, it’s easy to want to grab plugins you paid for just because you paid for them…not because you need them.

Awesome haha, thanks so much!
That echo and reverb work was sick, cheers 💎
Appreciate it, thanks!
Nice vibe!! Just want to put it on infinite loop! I’m a Reason user but still learn a ton from your tutorials.
That's awesome, thank you so much!
the freeze swell trick is really cool
Thanks!
Your amazing. I love how u show the entire process❤❤❤❤❤
Glad it was helpful! Thank you 😊
Now this is the type of lofi tutorial I needed ty
Glad it's helpful, thanks!
Another nice one. Learned a lot. Thanks!
Awesome! 🙂
great trick with that echo-noise! I didnt know this one 😁
Awesome!
Love the information. Great video. Thank you
Thanks so much 🙂
Excellent - so helpful and a beautiful example as well. A really clear explanation of the techniques to achieve the sound. Thank you! 🙏
Thanks so much!
Love that side chain tip. Great track 😊
New to your channel and it’s been inspirational…I’ve been binging 😂 keep up the great content!! I needed to see these…to get out of my own way…and just make music.
That’s awesome to hear! Thank you so much 🙂 sometimes it’s hard to just forget about everything and just make music.
Fantastic tutorial!
Thanks so much!
I never thought about automating thr freeze like it's a sustain pedal on a piano. That's brilliant! Need to try that myself. Ive always just gone full freeze, bounced it and cut it up. I feel stulid now 😅
It’s fun to try it both ways, but glad this was helpful!
That minor chord sequence got me. Telefon Tel Aviv vibes, sad happiness, mild depressive euphoria.
All the feels. Thanks!
I lovedhow well you explained this. Thanks for inspiring to keep learning. Subscribed!
Glad you enjoyed, thanks so much!
That was so clearly explained and what a great sound. Subbed!
Thanks so much!
Love the noise tip!
Very inspiring! Thank you so much 🙏
Thanks so much!
Greetings, I'm new to your channel and completely hooked B-)

One also gets the opportunity to use every inch of that wide soundstage to fill the whole room with structure and story ... amazing stuff for experienced ears.
Time for some binging now ;)
Ambient is definitely on my (growing) list of music to make. Too many genres, too little time. Glad you’re enjoying the videos and thank you!!
I like every one of your works
Thank you...I really appreciate that! I try my best at every genre I do.
these vids are so good, thank you!
Awesome, thanks so much!
Thank you for this quick and easy to understand video!
Glad it was helpful!
excelent tutorial, thanks K 💯
Thanks so much! 🙂
thanks for the info! love your ableton theme, what is it!?
Thanks for checking out the video! It's from the free mega pack of Ableton skins from SonicBloom. This one is SB Davy
I dig the Echo->noise approach. The new Meld synth has a ton of really useful crackle/noise elements we can use for this too. It's fun.
Ooh, fun! I’m excited to try out Meld and Roar!
Thanks for the upload! gave me motivation to make a beat!
Awesome! Happy to hear that!
Such a lovely track.
Thanks so much!
Very nice sleeping vibe
Thank you 😊
really great tutorial, really helpful. Thank you for posting.
Glad it was helpful, thank you!
You’re the best K! Keep it up 😁
Thanks so much!! 🙂
nice track and video, thanks
Thanks for checking it out 🙂

Good tutorial. Is there a reason you choose to send the ghost side chain to the sends instead of muting the track?
Thanks! I guess it's just my preference...I don't like to keep muted tracks. I'll sometimes delete them by accident when I'm cleaning up my projects.
Great stuff 🙏🏻 Why can’t I switch to Post FX on the Ghost Track Compressor? Thx for your support!
Thanks so much! Not completely sure why that’s not an option, but it shouldn’t make much difference in this situation 🙂
Lovely stuff as always.
Thank you very much 🙂
13:16 - thats a cool techique,
way cooler than just using a noise sample :)
Thanks! Yeah, it can be fun to just dial in your own sound 🙂
Thanks! Yeah, it can be fun to just dial in your own sound 🙂
nice demo
Thanks!
This is wonderful, thank you
Thanks so much 🙂
this is a great subgenre! what headphones are you using? thanks!
I do enjoy sleepy beats for relaxing. The headphones are Beyerdynamic DT 700 Pro X model. Super comfy…I love them.
very nice K.Hart
Thanks!
I was wondering if you could share where you got that clock-like percussion sound you use? I can't quite find something similar in ableton that I like. Thank you for your awesome content!
I’m pretty sure it’s from one of the Toby Schay packs on Splice. Don’t remember which one, but all of those packs have some pretty cool percussion samples. And thanks for checking out the video!
This video is good. Im a noob and going to copy you and learn in the process.
Glad the tutorial is helpful!
very well described! well done. without the usual “you can find it in my sample pack”
Much appreciated!
another good one. thanks
Thank you 😊
Thank you for these videos!
Terrific video, thanks so much!
I’m glad you enjoyed it. Thank you!
Super! I went a bit OTT with my chord progression, buuuut it my attempt sounds kinda cool ngl
That’s awesome. It’s better to experiment and make it your own.
ok this beat made me fell in love with you
great, now i’m going to overdo ghost sidechaining by putting it on everything
Glad I could help 😂
i'm having a hard time finding that perc sound. any chance you could point me in the right direction?
The drum samples in this one are from Splice so they’re not free with Ableton. The general concept should work with any sample, though!
very hip ,thank you
Thank you 🙂
now that's very nice:)
Thank you!
thank you
