genre: i think u already covered all but if there is and option to repeat i want to see again something on alex' orion , ezequiel arias style. or maybe mix between dark progressive but with more organic percusion and rhytm.OR more of your track breakdowns :D , instruments: conga's and how to make them sound realistic if you use dry samples., other content : more mixing tips, more sound design tips :-). Btw great and educational vid as always ;) ps edit: are you fucking kidding me , that track you used as tutorial is MIND blowing
How to create a good breakdown, buildup and drop. What elements to filter, how to filter them, how to start adding them again, and what elements can i add after the big drop (middle of the song). Examples on the techniques you use on your songs to create tension and then release energy. Just an idea for a future tutorial 😄
thanks for the feedback! To be honest most people watching can figure out how to do this drum beat because it's very beginner. It would be a bit of a waste of time for most viewers to watch me re-create an extremely basic 4x4 beat. But I hope you enjoyed the rest of the video!
What you call "swing" is what I've heard most producers refer to as "groove", with "swing" more commonly referring to the off-grid placement of notes. Specifically every second consective 8th or 16th note, as shown in your last example. It made me curious about the textbook definition, and I learnt how flexibly the term has been used over the years. There's some pretty interesting history about it.
Interesting! Definitely similar vibe to groove. Some people don't know that there is a difference! That is why I made sure to show what the stale stagnant lack of swing shakers sounded like, and then added the swing to show how beneficial it is and what it does :)
How is this different from your amazing shaker loops video? Is it that you use a drum rack on the other one and individual clips here? I love both honestly they're incredibly useful. Are they explaining more or less the same thing?
Really cool stuff buddy! One thing I’ve heard maybe you can provide input on the Haas effect. I’ve heard it leads to phasing issues, particularly in a live / club setting
Nothing wrong with playing something with the kick, but you may want to turn it down a bit more than the others, so when you are giving your kick room over other instruments, it doesn't pop out of the mix.
@@VentureNW Oh! Haha - this makes more sense, now! Yeah I see what you mean, it's a good point! Just using it a bit louder for demonstration, though :)
What instrument/style should I cover next? Comment below!

Yea break downs and tension would be great.
Minimal Deep Tech. style of the old Archie Hamilton tracks. Mercury and tracks like that

Velocity is what gives you the “groove”
Swing gives you .. well “ swing “

Shaker video focuses on just shakers, this one talks about all different percs :) but similar, I guess!

thanks! Yes it's possible, that's why it's always a good idea to check your mix in mono :)

Do you typically like to start with mostly midi vs all audio?
Nope! I usually start with a bit of both.
Do you have a cricket in your hihats or is it just me? lol cool

I think it's a fairly quiet kick, for demonstration purposes. If I go too quiet, I'm sure I'd have people in the comments telling me to turn it up :P
@@DowdenProductionAcademy sorry, I didn’t elaborate, kick is fine. I was referring to the wood hit on the kick
