      He’s saying BS, you’ll have a more guaranteed career & not be a one hit wonder if you produce to make a good song everytime. I’m Very dissapointed to hear him say that 1000 bad idea thing

    • @gonzomuse
      @gonzomuse 6 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      He is talking about working through ideas. Most producers/writers have hundreds of song ideas on their drives and most get discarded because they just aren't good enough. That's just the reality of it. Why waste your time continuing working on something that you know isn't happening? No-one I know constantly shits gold. It's that classic thing wake up the next day and go "WTF was I thinking?". Just throw that shit away, and start again, It will bring you closer to your next incredible song.

      RoyaltyProductionsDA Even deadmau5 said it's important to know when an idea isn't working and to ditch it and try something else. The more shitty ideas you get out your system the closer you get to making something good.

    Mura putting all these beatmakers to shame by actually explaining what he did musically rather than just putting some drums over a sample and getting lucky with a big rap feature.
    Best episode in the series yet.

    Mura one of the coolest and refreshing producers out there

    So weird seing my favourite song being deconstructed like this, after you've lived with it for so long and have so many memories associated with it.

      And something that isn't just a rap beat too!

    • @Nokitron
      @Nokitron 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Even EDM could be "rap beat". What is rap beat anyway?

    • @Crad4DRC
      @Crad4DRC 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      which other ones do you like? curious cause i don't watch a lot of these because they're so shallow...would love to see more like this one

    • @Nokitron
      @Nokitron 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Crad4DRC Chance the Rapper's Problem is pretty great

    • @Crad4DRC

    finally a beat that isnt just like
    1) so yeah i got a sample from a sample pack
    2) i added some snares and hi hats and kicks
    3) uh then i put the 808 you know you just gotta have that vibe n that swing
    yeah thats it

    • @mikethevicious
      @mikethevicious 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      These producers are barely producing ... they even using midi hi hats now... shot is crazy out here lol

    • @TheDrMaori
      @TheDrMaori 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      100% The majority of producers around are waveriders. Sure it's good to enjoy something, but all everyone does is replicate and change it up a little. It's harder and harder to find authentic styles sadly.

  • @xeiku7940
    @xeiku7940 6 ปีที่แล้ว +156

    Nice to see an actual fucking dope producer explain how they created an entire song rather than just throw drums over a basic ass sample like most of these trap producers for all the mainstream shit.
    I'd personally love to see more producers like Mura Masa on here... producers like Cashmere Cat, Flume, Clams Casino, Frank Dukes, araabmuzik, Hudson Mohawke x Lunice, Mr. Carmack, Sango, Monte Booker, Kaytranada etc.

    • @911wasindeedafalseflag
      @911wasindeedafalseflag 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Xeiku most of flumes songs are strait samples from samplephonics dont get it twisted

    • @xeiku7940
      @xeiku7940 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Vertex that is definitely true but by no means is Flume's music basic or sounds like anything else out there...

    • @Max-zh5ou
      @Max-zh5ou 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Vertex well skin is pretty much a SOPHIE ripoff but more mainstream sounding, so it does sound like other stuff out there, his first album was way more original

    • @HipsterskyDrwal

    Oh my god... this is a good video. It gives reassurance seeing that it’s not a super power to produce music like that he’s doing some of the most basic textbook stuff. So cool man, top 5 songs of all time for me.

  • @jakubkarczmarczyk6726
    @jakubkarczmarczyk6726 6 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Alex is such an amazing guy man :) He should get much more praise for the way he mixes in so many different interesting and unusual sounds, altered vocal patterns and dialogues. What's more he actually understands the cultural meaning of all he does and incorporates instruments like the harp which you hear very rarely in today's music. I think what he does is unique and I can't wait for more hits to come! :D

    I was really surprised when I heard this song for the first time, and I was captivated! Bonzai's presence also made me feel the strength of a woman, so I listened to this song for a long time! Muramasa has the same name as a famous Japanese sword, so as a Japanese person, I felt a sense of affinity with it.
