Dayglow - How I Made "Run The World!!!" 

SLOAN IS AN ICON YOU CANNOT PROVE ME WRONG

“This song is a meme” It’s even better knowing this somehow. Keep making songs, you funky little music man

dayglow: uploads depression: ight imma head out

*This is legitness*

You are the coolest space man ever !!!

i wanna be dayglow's friend 😠

roses are red violets are blue Sloans music is great and you love it too

When is Hot Rod 2 releasing?

I just want to thank you for making this music! This music keeps me going in the morning

Sloan: 9:30 My last brain cell: 👁👄👁

these intros never cease to amaze me

dayglow king of explaining how he makes his music !

hi sloan, can you go into vocal EQing? or just a quick glance at your fx chain on vocals (aside from the tape delay and the left-right panning haha) i really really enjoy this series, much love

no YOU hold a special place in my heart

Me: How does he make the bass sound good? Dayglow: *plays the guitar in lower octave* Me: Oh... Genius!

You’re such a funky dude and I live for these vids

im in love with this series everyone is asking to be your friend can i be too?

Right when I saw my notification, I'm not even joking when I openly said: "Yes!! Nearly 12 minutes worth of happiness!!!" 💖

SLOAN! As a dude in a small indie band, these are excellent tools. Thank you.

I can’t explain how much it encourages me seeing someone as successful as Sloan using the exact same stuff and plugins and program as me

I live for this. And your space suit

Id like to hear more about the recording techniques you use. What mics you use for vocals, are all your guitars direct input, etc Keep it up this has been really cool an inspiring as an aspiring songwriter/producer

Being bored in my room and being able to tune into another producer that I love so much is pretty frickin rad dude

MORE GUITAR LESSONS PLEASE INMUST LEARN HOW TO PLAY YOUR SONGS

He's such a cool dude, I ♡ Dayglow

Dayglow is that person who everyone wants to know as a close friend

hey sloan, i was wondering if next time you could go a bit more into your EQing and how you make everything sit so nicely in the mix. i can't believe how great your drums sound for just midi programming! cheers

So I stumbled upon Dayglow not too long ago and I am literally obsessed. Then I found out that he had a RU-vid channel, and I became even MORE obsessed. I'm not very artistic and musical but Dayglow really makes me want to make my own song.

i REALLY like the chorus when Sloan sings I-I-I-I WANNA RUN THE WORLD thats so bouncy and optimistic cool

I want to let you know that your album has really been helping me!! I wake up happier than I used to. I want to try new things again! Instead of freaking out, i'm excited to go to college and meet new people! I decided to buy a pair of rollerblades... Just for the heck of it!!! Things aren't great yet, but they will be one day. Ur music is good for me!

Thank you for these videos ♡ They really helps me in starting making my own music

Kinda poetic how this was the first ever dayglow song and you used it to end the Indianapolis show on October 5! I was there! It was so fun

Can't wait for : How i made "nicknames". It's one of my favorites.

Before I had a bass I’d just record my bass rhythm then take it down 12 semi tones, then run it thought a virtual bass amp. So the DI would be down pitched and then amplified.

shout to youtube for recommending this, ive never heard of him but thankful I discovered it, this is sick

Yes, it sounds like San Cisco's "We Spend Too Much Time Together" and probably even more songs from other indie bands. Pls comment other similar songs :--)

The most important series on youtube

I just really love the final song in the vídeo. It's so fucking good and it feels like you just finished the most dificult task to save humanity

This song just makes me feel like a happy 10 year old again

Idk why but you just seem like such a good friend and just a friendly person

Cool seeing this in 2023 in a feature song in a come to California state ad 🎉

I fucking love this man and everything he stands for in life

I LOVE THIS

So good🎶🎵🎶

I love that it was the first one I fell for and the first one you made, it was so cool for you to show us the guitar notes ❤️! Keep making magic no matter the complexity.

You're the best man, never stop. Music sounds perfect. "but it doesn't matter its rock n roll... baby"

I knew it!! Intergalactic, futuristic Sloan has returned in the intro! 👽🤘🎶💙✨

This kind of stuff is so invaluable. Thank you for sharing your incredibly hard work and time with us for FREE! Sloan the GOAT.

It may be the simplest song ever, but honestly it's one of my favorite songs ever...

This is honestly my favourite song of all time

In song production, what part of the song do you start with first, lyrics, chords, guitar?

was waiting for that explosion and was not disappointed

There's something about his songs that puts a smile in everyone's face.

Love the “Big Hug Mug”

God I love you're band. Someday Ill see you in Chicago

Loving these how I made series. Would you be able to explain your mixing/mastering process a bit as well in the future? That would be splendid. Cheers man!

The best outro i have ever seen obviously
