If you have any questions about how to program basslines, start here: the Moroder bassline. This rolling 16th-note subtractive bass style teaches you the foundations of sound design, programming and music theory, which you can use as a starting point to create your own flavour of bass.

Technically the Moroder bassline is playing on every 1/8 step, like in "The Chase", the 1/16 feeling is made by a delay (like in "I Feel Love"), that's a big part of the bassline groove

@OscarUnderdog Год назад

It's true there are probably more examples of 1/8th ones... Oh well :) same principles apply, mostly.

@clivemathieu9386 Год назад

Lol

@productionneuftrois9488 Год назад

Moreover, the bass in I Feel Love goes to one side channel, and delay to another side, it makes the idea.

@TC-lk2ev Год назад

I'm going to use all these ideas. Thanks everyone :)

@originunknown3209 Год назад

No, technically the Moroder baseline is 1/16th notes, but the same results can be obtained with 1/8th notes and delay. Either way would work.

i love how excited and enthusiastic you are about this. i can tell from your voice and the way you say things that you can't wait to move on to showing us the next piece of knowledge you have. you clearly derive a lot of pleasure about sharing ideas and skills - you're an inspiration bro!

@slimpyman Год назад

I only watch your videos once every couple months. But I think you're a likable dude. Perfects amounts of cool, cheesy, and enthusiastic.

@Joshheal Год назад

Fun fact - Moroder produced the first ever tune made with a 4x4 kick drum.

@thebeetbandit1732 Год назад

Damn this video has everything; theory, hisotry, excercises. Pure gold and a must watch for any edm producer.

@Than3Dane Год назад

Grew up along Thomas Moroder. He is also a multi-talented musician & educated Mechanic. He raised and taught me the Piano, took me to Mayrhofen South Tyrol - in Austria where their family roots stem from. I was then shown around Albin’s old Studio. Albin was his granpa, and Albins brother I recall is the grandpa to Giorgio Moroder. Which make Thomas & Giorgio Gran cousins. They never met each other though. But their deep lineage of family artistry lives on! Lately i regret not meeting him, as its quite a struggle to break through musically, & I have so much material accumulated over the past 15 years & more 🍻 He truly have become an inspiration to many! :)

I'm not sure it's any kind of official name, I think I just started calling it that myself :D

@dangerbird64 Год назад

Great tutorial, thanks!

@5tablenet Год назад

Excellent tutorial and transferable to hardware. I use this in modular often but still learned a lot so thanks. I'm such a fan of his work, Einzelgänger and the Donna Summer stuff in particular that I named my little label Moroderik (a portmanteau of Moroder and Motorik, because I love Krautrock too). One of the acts I play in, a hardware only duo called TRIPLE X SNAXXX, mines Italo, Kraut, and early Techno pretty hard so when it came to naming the label it was GIORGIO! CIAOOOOO! time. Thanks again for these videos. Even a relatively seasoned hand like me always learns so much.

@NyctalopeDiurne Год назад

@dystopianvisions5566 Год назад

Thank you Oscar, really interesting, very well explained, it helps a lot!!!

@AggroNoobs Год назад

To anyone with a keen ear, you just add a bit of side-chain, play along a minor scale and boom, you have the basics of a Slasher/Synthwave bassline. Also, not getting far from Darker EBM with a couple more tweaks and tempo changes. An honestly foundational bassline that's still used heavily to this day.

@nirelmar Год назад

WOW this video was SO helpful!! I so appreciate you. The way you explain and demonstrate in Ableton is so clear. As an absolute beginner I was able to follow along and understand! I can't wait to learn more and practice. Thank you, thank you.

@lawrencekelly5038 Год назад

How does that Donna Summer tune still sound like the future when it's over 40 years old?

@brei2670 Год назад

Probably because modern synthwave is basically just copying the 80s. Well, obviously that's not the reason, really... But we do generally connect a particular, synth heavy sound with the future. Maybe because so many cool 80s movies made the far away future a popular theme, and accompanied them with the music from that time. John Carpenter in particular nailed that sound back then.

@jemtbbb3223 5 месяцев назад

@lucianoespin6759 Год назад

Thank you, Today I listened for 5 times Giorgio By Morodoer (Daft Punk) while I was driving, It inspire me so much, when I arrive to the Studio I opened my live session and the first thing that I toght was the bassline and how i can create something like that for my tracks. This video helped me a lot!!
