@Lovecraftia 3 года назад

It’s quite literally everywhere you look. An extremely overused drum beat. It’s a very basic one, and minor alterations are made quite often, but otherwise it’s basic. I suggest putting more time into your drums, give them personality. It does wonders.

@CraigKeidel 3 года назад

@@Lovecraftia I'm not a drummer, I just program in some drums for the scratch track then hire one of my old college buddies to track drums for me, he's pretty damn good.

@Lovecraftia 3 года назад

@@CraigKeidel Ah okay. A bit of my response might have been a tad bit on my personal taste towards the drum beat, seeing as I like to work with drums quite a lot. I wouldn’t say I’m a drummer, but moreso a producer who likes to really scrutinize a song for more than just the melody and bass. I’m new to it all, though, so my word isn’t gospel, but I have spotted a thing or two in the time I’ve been doing production with music.

@eurz9188 3 года назад

Something to consider is that on a typical drum kit it's impossible playing both an open and a closed hihat sound at the same time. You may want to make the sound more realistic by removing the closed hihats at the points where you have an open one (and actually, the beats in the transitions from open to close or the other way around can sound different as well, something to consider for extra realism). Unless, of course, you want the synthetic/unrealistic sound as an intentional effect.

@Thegameshowcase 3 года назад

You are correct, but 1. Realism maybe isn’t the main objective when producing and 2. There isn’t actually an open hihat in any of the beats, the first example is a relaxed hihat and the second and third example is actually a splash, which is a small 8”-12” inch cymbal.

To people suggesting he add more technical terminology and information, go look for that. You'll find it literally everywhere on YT. I knew NOTHING months ago, still "know" so little, but I've learned more from this guy's style than every other knowledgeable producer I've watched. When you hear all the technical terminology, even the most seemingly basic, it makes you feel like the barrier to entry is astronomical, like you have to learn all of music theory before being able to just whip a song together. There's a place for this guy in the game and I hope he keeps it simple as hell for everyone. There's so much other content for those of you who already know the language. And keep in mind I don't want to learn music production so I can speak it or do it with others. It's for me, so I'm happy to find this guy!
