Go stream the new track on Spotify! I put the link in the description
fire track!!! could you please make a mixing tutorial next? your tracks always have such a punchy low end and such a crisp high end!
@@Person-cc1xb He has an incredible multi video mixing tutorial on his channel already. Do a little digging ;)
I’m working on a really in depth mixing course right now that should be out in the fall 👍🏼
It's in my EDM Mix playlist now. 🔥
This advice is critical to take your tracks to the top level. However, this also takes a lot of discipline and experience to not get too lost in endless possibilities and options to the point you never can decide. 🤘
I’m stuck in the option paralysis zone
@@rascalbootleg Focus on ur date limit to deliver the project. You'll find ur max amount real quick lol
Actually, it's easier than you might think.
that comes with experience tho too and thats part of finding your sound and having an idea of what genre and idea youre going for and having favorite presets helps
The baseline switch up is definitely god tier 🔥🔥🔥
i agree

@@hendrix6useless comment! We all get his point! Focus on the content not in the cover!!we need here BeethovenZ not agatha cristieZ
Jack Conte describes this process of giving yourself as many different options to choose from/possibilities as "the funnel". Good advice for any creative project! Or things like job applications! Apply to 20 different jobs, five actually get back to you, two actually end up interviewing you, and one ends up hiring you. Doing the smallest amount of effort possible sets you up for the smallest probability of success.
that's also what investors were doing with startups back in the days. Investing in several, one would cover all the loss and make benefits
as long as you don’t take musical advice from Jack Conte you should be fine
Amazing advice, as always. One strong sound is always better than layering 10 average sounds.
You literally found the hidden gem in that track. Thanks for the tips. Yea, I'm really new (almost 2 years) in production but learning something new everyday.
More options do not always lead to a better result. The limiting factor is probably experience. When you are not experienced enough to know quickly wether the alternative sound that you just picked will work well for you in the final track, then more options can make you even more unsure.
What I would recommend is bouncing out the idea with different sounds, perhaps even 10 to 20 versions, then closing the project for now and listen to the versions back a couple days later (at least 3 days, better 1-2 weeks or even more, the longer the better). At that point in time you may find it easy to pick a favorite.
Dope! That’s why I think it’s great to send over your stems to a mixing engineer who is not attached to certain stems and can judge the track with unbiased ears.
I would say thats not even mixing because he is replacing the sounds, I might be wrong but I would say he is co-producing the track (and mixing it).
@@BurnBabylon_Selecta You are right. He is doing more than just “mixing”. But instead of working with heavy processing on a sound it can be wise to replace it with a more suitable sound. Call it what you like. I think it is an effective way to collaborate.
There are creative mixers who will do stuff like this but costs do get heavy.
@@BurnBabylon_Selectathere are mix engineers who offer services for additional production
Great video; great song. I love that slide you do at 2:27 and then the way the song ends is super dramatic. It's also interesting to see how a fresh set of well trained ears can take something already good to a whole new level. Always love your videos.
This is brilliant work, Big Z. You did make something that sounded good, and turned it into something that feels good.
Such a sick track! Love the sound!! Great job Z and thanks for making a video based around it !
Always high-quality vids, straight to the point. Love it!
I've always loved your content from day 1 but your camera confidence has taken your videos to the next level bro 😎, great work!
Simple yet sick advice. Everything that was needed to make the song great was pretty much already there in the original demo, but the way you honed and focused it ramped it up several notches. The advice is presented in a way that I feel like I could easily apply it to my own demos. Thanks!
You gave great A/B examples which really opened up the track, plus the philosophy for which parts should or should not be the main focal points. Big up!
What i needed to hear. Awesome as always, your videos are gold!
Man the transformation was insane, well done!
Crazy how fresh ears can help with an arrangement! If this don’t tell anyone how important it is to collab….
But aye you made some great calls on the arrangement man. Definitely took the track to another level.
Wow! Amazing video and really great production skills man! Nice job. Thanks for showing us your process :)
Yoo! Congrats with release on Gemstone! Sick track, sick video as well!
OMG. This is totally brilliant. Thanks Z !
You really elevated this song! Great work.
Yesss, so happy to have a collab with the legend
Another very helpful food for thought video on some great topics. Thank you Z. The tune is awesome. 🔥
wow, nice track ! these modifications really shine
Finding the lead, whether a vocal or a synth Line is probably the most important part of the track
Great advice ❤
wow, that track sounds hot! your final polish is just insane!!!!
omg man, youre such a freaking pro! love what you changed!
Bangggg !!!!! its just insane ......Need a MASTERCLASS of this track.!!
You are a legend. been a fan for like 11 years now lol
So much things to learn from this guy! Thank you!
the greatness of a producer cab be measured by how much he can get out of as few tracks as possible.
Not entirely true. A better measurement is how cohesive a track is even with a bunch of tracks. Some tracks that sound so simple are actually very dense arrangements.
and still it can't make an ok song great.@@MiketheNerdRanger
5-min master class. Don't get any better than that.
Blobby likes the lead synth nice work
You give great tips and make great music. Much love from NYC
Wow this is one of those things that sounds like a no brainer when you hear it out loud, but I noticed all of this in the track I'm working on now. Really awesome advice!
Love the song and great advice. Was listening on my computer, small Altec Lansing computer speakers, but with a separate sub-woofer, not great. Switched over to studio speakers, Rokit 5's through an interface and sounds great! Have to check it in my car.
Please do a mix breakdown of this track! Sounds so clean! Maybe a Mixing Masterclass 2?
I’ve been working on a new mixing course all summer that should be out in the fall sometime 👍🏼
@@BigZMusic A mixing course! That is great!
@@BigZMusic That's amazing!
Stoked ⚡⚡ Amazing work.
Oh my goodness! You’re ridiculously great bro! ReDICKulous! 😮Good job!🥴
Such small tweaks making a huge difference! What a great lesson, you're really good at this man... appreciate it!
Awesome stuff, Big Z. I'm working with rock music right now and that means sometimes the focus is on different elements, but the overall advice still holds up: when producing a demo into finished song, identify the hooks and bring them out. It's useless to obsess over guitar tone or the sound of the snare if the overall song doesn't work.
Killer job Big Z!
Wow I really love how you produce drums 🤩. Could you please a in depth tutorial about how you reason about drums. Most of your drums tutorials are about getting them FAT but not many about how to arrange them.
I’ll definitely think about doing a video more about drum arrangement, thanks for the idea man
I was surprised how many layers you used but understand it’s accentuating the rhythm of the track. Just wondering how you manage to mix so many layers in together?
@@lextonmusic5318 curious about this as well
Big Z let's goooo
Amazing work as always
Just ran across your channel during my daily morning ritual of discovering something new. Great suggestions, sir!!
Great work! And great tips aa allways
This video give me a lot new idea for my old "demo" tracks) thank!
Big Z is a professional in his field
At the start of the video.. Before the process sounded greater than after the process..
truth.
This tune sounds amazing!
💯 Good stuff here..............thank you so much. 🙏🏾
the process: make the song better
That track is another level 💪🏻🔥
Night and day difference! That advice about "feeling" the background synths instead of hearing it especially hit home. I was surprised at how harshly low cut they were, almost like they were coming out of a phone. I didn't think you could get away with that, but it really does work.
Nothing but quality!
Beautiful 💯
sick track! & thx for these amazing tips! keep it up
Gold advice as always
very nice. The results are very good.
I would like to say thanks for your work ! i want to comeback to music After watching your video you advices are so well explained and you are a cool guy thanks for it 👍👍
Fire track 😮💨
Sounds awesome
Great song!
Big Z is *the* greatest music production tutor, irrespective of genre.
Omg this sounds SICK 😍
the king. loved this breakdown. If your ever looking for male vocals id love to throw some your way
congrats on your release on Selected!! will you make a tutorial on your new track?
Amazing. You are so talented brother
Great advice!
banger of a track
Thank you, Sir!
perfect, thank you!
This is GREAT information - thanks!
i think your the best mixing engineer in the world.
So basically change out every sound that is important so it fits and do a complete new mix for it.
Your core idea is absolutely right and super important, but your example is not the representative of what can happen, if you just follow those steps. You basically rewrote the most important parts. The drum groove has a complete new feel to it as well.
Awesome song 👌
Great stuff once again 👏 by the way a friend of mine looks exactly like you, true double being 😂 keep up the good work!
very well done man
Legend 🙌
what a fat production my friend...i like it from the first note! bastian
What is “quality” is very subjective, remember that kids. Don’t trust people who’s nose makes little movements all the time like something stinks right next to them.
U never disappointed me bro
Would love to see your kick side chain attack/release settings
sick thanks dude
What a tune, can you do full breakdown for this one please 🙌
Up
1:56 exactly
Bro you are a wizard
Please do a video on how you mix and masters this track 😮
great tip Big Z, question do you mix in the box, or you have outboard gear that you mix into?
3:40 bro exactly haha
🔥🔥🔥
You flipped this demo track to a RUFUS DU SOL banger... Incredible...
oh man, that shirt. ❤
i nice clean up !!
🧹
Your a beast bro holy horse nuts
Awesome advice! Could you do this same concept with modern pop / hip-hop / R&B (The Weeknd, Post Malone, etc)
this dude is savage
That bass is 🔥 How'd you make it??
