one year ago... "almost at 1,000 subscribers" Now sittting at 129K. Man thats a testament to perseverance and patience. M'azing

The meat of the technique with all the fat trimmed. Quickly becoming my fav production channel.

I don't think I've ever learned more and actually retained the information, better than I have after watching this video. Instant subscribe. Keep up the amazing work

Wow.. the boundaries now feel unlimited.. as if someone opened the box i was stuck in and i stood up to look around!! My skill level for creating melodies just tripled!! Thank you sooo much!!!

Some of the best content on electronic music production by far

You mention 1k subscribers in the video, at nearly 50k after just 4 months. Fair play sir, well deserved this is an excellent channel!!!

nicely explained, not overly technical. as an artistic soul with no technical mojo it is super helpful and fun to reproduce and go from there.

the video is not only to make things like four tet , also you can use it as inspiration to make another thing completely different , oscar your are amazing , really feel gratefull about all of this content that you share !

Really loving the channel so far mate. I gotta say, I don't really make music that sounds like anything you make (although I usually like it!), but I love these tutorials because they show a really good work flow. I've been making music for a long time, but I'm relatively new to electronic music and even newer to ableton. You do a great job of showing how to get the sounds in your head into your daw. Cheers.

I never comment on videos really but this is some great stuff. Your teaching has led me to produce some sick deep/dark bicep type tracks in my own style. I love these videos so much. Super easy to follow. Thank you so much.

This is absolutely sick. I only have Maschine but I can see how this carries across easily. Really great pacing with the videos, I feel like a lot of creators go too slow but you pack a lot in while still allowing us to keep up.

I totally fell in love with this process. I wanted Cthulu immediately. Asked Xfer if my existing system, based on Maschine would run it. Got a lovely email back from Steve with a No, so I went to work researching Maschine user experiences in Ableton, found some positives, bought a Novation Launchpad mini, which arrived yesterday and at 9 last night I had Cthulu talking strange magic inside a free copy of Ableton live lite. Monster Arp indeed. Thank you so much for the introduction. In my emails with Xfer, I name checked you as the inspiration for my inspiration. You also made me realise how intuitive Ableton is. I'm appreciating this even more as a total newbie in it. Reviewing this video there's quite a jump from where you talk about the VST to showing it arping the chord progression. I can see 3 lanes in white, one of which is titled Arpeggiator, the bass drum marking time in orange, which I assume is the framework. Did you copy the chords into a new midi channel, then drop Cthulu onto it or the other way round I wonder? I will probably be able to work that out by trial and error. As you might read, I'm overexcited.

Oscar thank you so much for your amazing work. I already bought your course and it is amazing, no regrets. Keep it up with this!

3 years of watching music production on KZfaq, You are the 1st ever person ive seen using lfo from max. Wow i thought i was the only person using it.

Oscar is one of the most creative instructor i've seen, trust me, i've seen tons of videos but i'm stuck to this channel, no matter how beginner or advanced you are, this channel is for you

Really like this one. Instant buy of the Cthulhu for it's arp. If I where to change one thing I would skip the LFO effect and use the built in LFO in Wavetable, just turn off the Retrig on it.

This content is straight gold! Thank you for taking the time to share online, seriously remarkable instruction. Your gift of teaching is evident🙏🏻🥇

dude, i love your stuff. i am not even for learning things here, but that all has such relaxing effect on me, so i enjoy just to watch you at work.

"The rest of the owl." Gets me every time 🤣

Oscar, you are so awesome. Every Underdog tutorial I’ve done helps with grasping music theory concepts, developing technical skills, learning Ableton workflows and reminders to move quickly with creative decisions. Thank you so much. Will definitely book future sessions when I’m further along.

🎶 ͲᎡႮᎬ ᎷᎪՏͲᎬᎡᎽ ϴҒ ᎪΝᎽ ՏᏦᏆᏞᏞ, ͲᎪᏦᎬՏ Ꭺ ᏞᏆҒᎬͲᏆᎷᎬ 🎶 U certainly have mastered them 👏🎖️👏

The amount of stuff I learn from your videos is amazing. Thank you so much !

One of the best Ableton Tutorial Channels at YT. Perfect. 👍👍👍

in love, thanks Oscar!

Draw the rest of the owl reference cracked me up. Excellent content. You have a great way of packing lots of info into your segments that is very easy to understand & integrate.

Fast growing channel, and well deserved. The very best channel available on the subject. Oscar, in the weeks of watching your uploads, my improved understanding and musical growth has been nothing short of amazing. Thank you for this.

I wish this channel was around aout 20 years ago when i strated to learn 'in the box' music production

Dude, your content is pure gold.

I haven’t even watched video in it’s entirety, but I’m commenting as I know I’m about to learn some cutting edge stuff! For anyone pondering, this guy knows his shit!

Almost 1k subribers, 6 months later over 50k ! Awesome work !

Man, you're so clear, concise and to the point. Your teaching skills are phenomenal, I love trying everything you've been showing us all - thank you so much!!

Cthulhu looks like the closing scene on "close encounters of the third kind" Great tutorials

you are a great teacher ! thank YOUUUUU

Solid AF. Interesting techniques, well taught. Great channel, nice one pal

If one day I quit logic pro to ableton it will be your fault 😂😂😂 best learning channel on youtube, and great electro background and tastes !

You are a fantastic teacher

This is good stuff here. Keep it up dog!!!!

Man, what a great channel this is. You are very good with your techniques and a great instructor. Perfect tutorial and expertly done. Bravo!

Very good tutorial! Respect from Russia 🤘🏻

One of your newer videos led me here. Hehe. Top class.

you probably know this already,,,, but you can press shift & up arrow to move midi notes up an octave, instead of mousing them up with your tongue sticking out the side of your mouth

Im watching this after if this showed up in recommended,,, im like duuuuuuuuuuudeeeeeeee 10/10

Really well explained and interesting thx

The first chord is a Bb Major. Bb-Fm-Db-Ab. The Ableton techniques are cool 👍

I really enjoy your videos and have solidified a lot of learning with them.

Nice work! 👏

Thank you, this was awesome

Bravo! C'est trop fort encore une fois !

So much content to binge on.... Loving your work, Oscar! Cthulu looks awesome..... Gonna have to take the plunge!

Nice one. Learnt a lot.

Awesome video! Because of it I ended up getting Cthulhu and diving right in. That arp is now my favourite plugin! Was able to take my work in progress song and create an awesome melody for it!

Oscar thank you for your lessons!Maybe you could show us the sound design behind Umek's plucky synths like the recent killer "Frequency Differ". 🙏

Awesome. These tutorials are the only ones that grip my attention allowing me to actually learn something. Unreal my friend 👌🏻

This channel has grown so much in a short space of time, well done!

Cthulhu is great. I watched Deadmou5 use it in a video and I was sold. Thanks for the nice video.

Underdog coming up quickly to that 1K subscribers! Make sure you hit that button friends!!!

Amazing channel! Very well thought out tutorial, cheers!

What great channel! In ony has one big issue: it is massively undersubbed!

amazing channel, subscribed!

You do the best videos EVER ! Like Emilien said " The amount of stuff I learn from your videos is amazing ! And I'm following you since only a week ! Thanks !

Really really nice Oscar - congratulations

hey just by the way the first chord you call Bb minor and on the midi clip u label it as Bb minor but the notes that sound are actually Bb major, not sure if you noticed this

Hang on hang on, can I just say wow, you had almost 1000 subscribers in this video... And now you're at 110,000 only 9 months on?? That's gotta be a record for growth!!!

Excellent video. Thank you!

Just brilliant! Thank you.

Excellent stuff!

Leuke content en goed uitgelegd in duidelijk Engels! Respect

Just here to say you are kickin ass and thanks for the quality videos

WHoa, thanks so much! First time I've watched you, will certainly be subscribing that was awesome!

Excellent

This is A1 sound class, just imagine the tutorial pack's! I bought an everything bundle from Production music live toward the end of '21, I am still keen to have a browse and find something that I need to work on. Thank you for the dedication to the music brother! 😉🙃🤘

Fantastic stuff. Even though the examples are in Ableton, these concepts can definitely be taken to other mediums. Excited to give these techniques a try on the Digitone! The former of this channel is so instructive, beyond the individual lessons it's teaching how to analyze music you enjoy to replicate the key elements. Thank you so much for all the great videos!

I always forget that there are people out there who don't know how this stuff works. I was going to make a derisory comment pointing out that what Four Tet is doing is incredibly simple, and that the machines are doing almost all of it. But then you spent nearly seventeen minutes patiently explaining the technique for those who don't know. It isn't mystical. It isn't hard to do, and you don't even need to be much of a musician to get results like that. But I'm still gonna complain that no-one gives me any credit for discovering these techniques on my own!

Another great video. Great to see you subs going through the roof - much deserved

"beautiful glistening intricate glassy"

Wow. You absolutely blew my mind. Amazing tutorial. And even better that you are using (mostly) Ableton tools. This is fantastic stuff. Thank you!

Those chords are all in the key of C#/Db so you could just use a randomized C#/Db major pentatonic arpeggio and you will get the same basic harmony.

Awesome thanks

huge

Wow! That was such a mesmerizing video!

Very good 😊

Brilliant tutor...

amazing vid

Awesome idea 👌

12:24 Banging the mouse buttons for no reason :))

Awesome

Great video and presentation :)

great thanks

Cream, by kirnu, is also a good one

Really informative thanks!

Man, this stuff is super helpful. I may need to switch to Ableton from Studio One.. 😅😬

Not to be that guy, but the synth programming in your example is actually done my Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith. Great track and love your breakdown.

Can any Cthulhu experts explain to me how there is 8 different choices for the arpeggiated hits (not including the top notes) and yet they are still meant to hit the notes in the chord that is being played via midi? Seems like they don't to me meaning an out of key arpeggiator

"Almost at 1000 subscribers" - Only 11 months later and you're at 114k jheeez. But I can also see why.

FAT video as per usual thank you bro

Great stuff! Belgium FTW! :)

i produce drum & bass but learn a lot from your videos 🤓

This is great. I love Four Tet !

great vid. anything more about stuff "motifs, secondary melodies and counterpoints" is super welcome --- arrangement and instrumentation is difficult - this helped a lot already, thanks
