- In this video I share my process on how to write an indie rock song like the band Alvvays. I'll briefly go through tracking my instruments as well as a quick run through on my mixing and EQing process. All done in Ableton 11 Standard! Hope you guys enjoy! #indierock #Alvvays #ableton

The biggest signature of an Alvvays song is a killer bridge and multiple hooks.
Absolutely. Love them.
as someone who loves niche artists and gets frustrated how little I know about their creative processes, I just want to thank you from the bottom of my fucking heart for this incredible channel. both you and your channel are pure gold, you’re the man!
Thank you so much! Glad to be of service! I appreciate those kind words. It’s viewers like you that keep this channel going.🙏🏻❤️💪🏻
Yesterday and today I was literally listening to their stuff and trying to figure out how to write like them. You read my mind!
No way! Haha that’s pretty cool 💪🏻
it does have that alvvays vibe, also a mix of 60s surf rock, which is one of the vibes alvvays also like in their music videos, cool!
Thank you, Sean!
Would love more of your thought on the chord progressions for the artists!
watching everything of you man haha :D
That would actually be a great video idea. Like breaking down chord progressions :) Thanks for the support and suggestion!
Dope video, Willeh! I really dug their new song, it had a shoegaze edge to it.
Thanks, Mang! Really? I’ve yet to check it out. Thanks for the heads up💪🏻
Been waiting for this one, FANTASTIC, thanks so much for making these!!
Absolutely, Deon! Thank you for watching!
I don't know much music theory but this was enlightening
Thank you for watching, Jerry!
He must have gone to music school for a long time. Yes this is above my head. But I love it.
Extremely underrated video
Love it
meow, meow meow meow ... yahhs lol One of my fave music makin youtubers rn dude, good job
Haha!🤣 Thank you, Brotha! I appreciate you.🙏🏻💪🏻
Background vocals reminds me of The Beatles. Nice recording. I’m a Guitarist that is lost when it comes to recording techniques. I’ve alvvays, pun intended left the recording parts up to third party producer/engineer. I do however know my way around a looper pedal, which helps build up parts.
Is there a full version of this song? I love it! You did a fantastic job🔥🔥🔥
I’ll be uploading music from the channel and will be available everywhere by the end of Jan (2023)!
“Wherever the hell that is” 😂😂😂
Another great video !! 🥳👏🏽👏🏽
Lol Thanks for your continued support, Corvo!🙏🏻💪🏻

Great stuff, brother!
Thank you, Andrew!
Great stuff my guy!
Thank you, Nestor!
Awesome Willeh! Your prodction quality sounds so good. Is there a secret sauce you don't tell us about? Come on, just between us. :-) Cheers
Thank you, Clemens! I appreciate your continued support🙏🏻💪🏻 Haha, I promise I’m not doing anything extra outside of what you guys see😄👍🏻
Just found your channel and absolutely love it. I was wondering if you would ever do a band that is more synth-dominated, like Future Islands, Black Marble, or Small Black?
I absolutely love your videos but as someone who produces only on keyboards I would love a synth-oriented “sound alike”!! Also would love to see a studio tour video- if you have one already I’d love a link. Can’t wait to binge the rest of your stuff- insanely talented!!
Hey, Adam! THANK YOU SO MUCH! Yeah, absolutely. I definitely want to consider doing some synth based material in the very near future. Those are great artists, by the way! Turn on your notifications so you know when I upload those synth vids!😉💪🏻
As far as a studio tour, I’d love to do one! Stay posted for that as well!
Thank you for watching!
I don't know this band.
Thank you 🙏🏼
You’re very welcome!
Another band that would be cool to see a song like is Moving Mountains.
my biggest problem is chord progressions, how do you create these great chord progressions? I watched your video on the strokes and the progression you had was amazing, how do you do it?
Thank you for the support! I will share my approach very soon on how I use chord progressions!
Incredible video thank you! I’m currently looking at purchasing a fuzz pedal and love the sound of yours.. could you please tell me which one you are using?
Thanks for watching! That’s awesome, I love fuzz. In this video I was using the Astro Tone by Analogman
Make a oasis video
I’ll throw it on the list! Thank you 💪🏻
Please can you make video on Oasis...
Yeah I’ll throw that band on the list! Stay posted!
Guitars sound great. What is the signal chain? Thanks
Bass too
Alvvays isnt something you can copy or repeat. The same goes for many other bands
Absolutely!
