Fred’s “bad” microphone thing is genius. He’s making bangers out of the infinite number of rough ideas we all have in our voice memos. And Ai won’t be able to replicate that intimacy as easily.

Right, our unique interpretation and decision making process is hard to emulate.

@jacoboreilly3601 Жыл бұрын

The fading in and out on the filter is very similar to the idea, in classical music, of making sure the music is breathing. That it feels like it's being sung from a human, the way humans have to take breaths while singing.

Oh wow, I don't think I ever really thought about that connection. That's actually a beautiful way of thinking about it!

@servantsounds Жыл бұрын

When I started out I used to obsess over making things super high quality, and I kind of fell out of love with producing because it made it really hard to be spontaneous and creative. Coming back to electronic music years later, I've really enjoyed learning from high-profile producers who value creating a 'vibe' above anything else - like you said, you don't need the best tools before you can start making art. Great video - thanks Oscar!

Underdog, I think people are loving this video because you mostly treat it like a DJ set. By teaching in real time with the beat looping, the tutorial is so much more enjoyable. I hate production videos that never drop the beat. Get it dude!

Hi Oscar. I would like to express my gratitude to You. You're doing a great job sharing invaluable knowledge with us. I'm going through a difficult period in my life right now - I'm suffering from depression, which makes my own mind slowly kill me. Your videos really helps me to overcome this. You are literally saving my life - thank You for that. I wish You a successful and stable growth of your channel and your musical projects. And most importantly - stay producing!)

@stuartleighton Жыл бұрын

I suffer from depression too, or used to. One thing that helped me was reading the first chapter of Ekhart Tolle's 'Power of Now.' This really had a huge positive effect on my mind, like a sudden rewiring, very bizarre. I then read the book again twice and make use of some of the philosophy within. This might not work for all, but I thought that I'd share it with you, in the hope that you'll at least give it a try. It's not a huge chapter, and is easy to understand. The rest of the book is a little more complex but still useful and insightful. Hope you can find a way to overcome your troubles... I too find creating music absolutely awesome and this channel really can get me on the right frame of mind first thing in the morning when I am seeking ideas and inspiration for a new track I am making. All the best... if you decide to try my suggestion, then I'm happy to chat through with you any questions you might have. Give it a go, it might be really helpful like it was for me. ;-)

That explanation about the sound quality being related to the vibe was so eye opening! I love more industrial type of heavily distorted techno / breaks, but if I grabbed one of the kicks or snares from them I would definitely think they sound bad, but only because it's in isolation

I've learnt a lot from this tutorial. Brilliant, thanks. Just getting back to working on my tune after a trip back to UK and Poland and being affected by Covid and then the flu for a month, which rendered me very unproductive. This really gives me some ideas, especially the filtering and vocal part for my new tune. Awesome!

@rafaelaragonDJ Жыл бұрын

The "dropstep" (I don't know either how to call it), can be very powerful. I like to skip the kick (alone or with other elements) on the first beat, it gives the feeling that the floor is suddenly falling (la terre se dérobe sous tes pieds)... It works even better on slower tempo ! Another alternative is to leave only the kick (and a shortened bass), and to bring everything back together on the next snare (3rd beat usually). Thanks again for the great content, and for the joy and enthusiasm you always share !
