This is the kind of stuff people pay to go to Berklee to learn and we get it for free
It's quite ironic that capitalism and corporations in addition to people's freedom made it possible. Who would have thought?
@@armentumhominum9931 damn bro we were having such a good time over here and you ruined it
It's not rocket science
@@RandomChance On god. SMH
@@armentumhominum9931 LOL this has nothing to do with any of those things. just STFU
As a songwriter I tend to overthink the crap out of my lyrics. But watching the way Austin write his lyrics with such a calm and open-minded demeanor has taught me to just let go and let the lyrics happen authentically.
If you think less and do more a new world you’ll love opens up.
@@JayOneAlumni hey thanks for your advice Jay! I appreciate it. I'll try to do that.
You are so INSANELY gifted!!! Crazy talented singer/songwriter, producer and teacher! Thank you for your generosity in sharing your talents with us!! I'm learning, while being inspired!
Are we just not gonna talk about how great of a singer Austin is?
Awww shucks ☺️☺️
@@MakePopMusic I very much appreciate these videos, they’ve really helped me out with my own music, please keep them up. Thanks again 😄
@@MakePopMusic you are tho 😌
@@MakePopMusic I really like your videos, I myself use FL Studio but your tips really help me a lot. Can you maybe do a dark weeknd type song? Like one from his “Trilogy” or “my dear melancholy” albums, or some of the darker after hours beats. Thx for all the videos you post
This is so good! You ever think about doing a bedroom pop style tutorial? (still woozy, rex orange county, boy pablo, etc)
YES! THIS
This is me watching every "How To" videos : "Damn, that's another hit !" ... Producing then singing on your own track, I've always wanted to do that but I'm so bad at singing that auto tune couldn't handle the thing lol !
Just practice all the time and record yourself. Start today 👌🏻 doesn't take that long to progress and recording allows yourself reference to fuel motivation down the road so you can compare
i mean u can ask someone to be the singer, and u be the producer
Was literally in a rut mixing a pop ballad track, then you upload this. U THE MAN.
This was lowkey exactly what I love. You named the artists at the start and they're all in my listening list
This is seriously one of the best tutorials I ever saw on TH-cam. Austin, you are so incredibly talented at literally everything... songwriting, producing, singing and mixing... I'm really positively jealous... just amazing! All the best for you and please keep the good stuff coming!
I LOVE when he gives up the process of writing vocals great vid man
Austin you are absolutely incredible, I will not rest until I have watched all of your courses, tutorials and such. Thank you for the gift that you are. Can't wait to take all of your courses once I finish my production school studies. You are by far just 🤩

Awesome. Could you make a video on how to choose sounds that matches? Basically, what sounds matches with what.

Great video, learned so much from this. It would be awesome if you did a video on Neo Soul type music a bit like Tom Misch
Tom Misch is insaneeee
I came here to learn something about songwriting but then when the song evolved into this great piece of art you just wrapped up the video and said goodbye 😱 I want to hear the whole song! Did you ever finish it and put it on spotify or TH-cam?
