finaly lofi producers can get to the next level and finish actual songs

@Bittamin 2 года назад

This is too good to be Lofi, we need to call it Hifi

@joyfuldjango8212 2 года назад

Haha true. Maybe this is that. Found this song I don’t know what genre this is lol. Have a listen and tell me ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-x9ovyXphQWI.html

@davewaveradio390 2 года назад

What a great way to help people find the key the song is in.

@auxchar Год назад

You do have to be careful, though. If the song has any modal interchange (stepping outside of the scale for a couple spicy notes), this method will produce incorrect results.

@manuknobs8710 2 года назад

Honnestly its incredible how much I've learn with your videos man, you make me want to add more layers and complexity to my beats, but im still learning how to do it without overloading it (just like uncle Joe's overloaded credit card debt)

After 5 minutes I learned so much ... my brain exploded. had to pick up a compressor to glue back together and then you show the color effect. and then spitfire. and then wowzers. Thank you man. this was so helpful (far beyond LoFy production.)

@Bittamin 2 года назад

The very best tip that’s been working for me is finishing songs no matter how unhappy you are with the sound. Get the structure right. You’ll be amazed how even the worst samples and sounds structured into a song can still be SOMETHING. But a super cool 4 bar loop is only cool until the brain sucks all the stimulation it can from hearing it

@joyfuldjango8212 2 года назад

Yeah man I know what you mean. Just need to stick to it no matter what and do it piece/part by part and give each part your attention. Example this song I found from this other artist seems to pay attention to parts of songs. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-x9ovyXphQWI.html

Great track, nice. Did you use that spicy diminished chord in the end ? I was answering the door to a hoover salesman when you did the piano sequence. Anyway I can imagine a cat occasionally swishing it's tail, while it is almost asleep, on a Persian rug and in front of a virtual coal fire when I listen to the song. Good work.
