    Your ability to explain and unpack things is why you're one of the best educators in musictube. Big ups.

    Now Oscar is going deep. Cross modulation, layering and enrichment go as FX and the workflow is a never ending loop. You can resample, reloop, microedit rearrange and start again. MultiFx are best but you dont need any weird vst, just stack fx on top of each other, using random Lfo's attached to parameters gives you a bigger sound palette to resample from. It will get a point where everything is glitchy, keep going, its nice past that point. Good diving

    This is the most fun of all the Underdog videos I've watched so far 😂

    Dude, I think you are the only teacher/youtube out there that actually makes dope tracks!!! All the others make trash lol. Loving that bit you made there.

    ❤Wow!
    I dislike distortion with a passion and when you started playing with it I thought "I'm out of here!"😂
    I am SO glad I waited. When you started layering, adding delay and putting the movement in, a sense appeared that I could understand. You had developed massive energy, resolved it into something that I could understand as dynamic music with a flow and drama and retained that punchy drive. Brilliant.
    I think the cutting room floor has probably got the bits where you were actually drew in the notes instead of telling us you did.🤩

    this was super helpful, but the outro vibed so good i had to try and recreate it just so i could listen to a longer version

    You make it seem more plausible how you’ve described how to do this. Thanks for creating this tutorial. Love the cheerful vibes!

    Thank you oscar ❤️ love your way of explaining things and saying that it's okay to experiment and have fun while producing, i tend to forget that a lot and you always manage to get me back into it ❤️

  • @Flamieee1
    @Flamieee1 Před 4 měsíci +1

    Thanks for sharing. I think this workflow makes it really fun and its keeps you moving forward and get to the arrangment part pretty quickly. Getting some oldskool 2000's techno vibes from this, love it! Going to give this a try!

    To quickly change the classic drummachine sounds like in the first technique u can also use the drummachine selector kit. I think that way it's even a little more flexible.
    Love your tutorials :D

  • @g3cd
    @g3cd Před 4 měsíci

    That actually was fun. And the most important thing I learned was the 2 beats thing ... I usually end up with 4 or 8 bars and then I do melodies because there's so much room and all of a sudden, it sounds like some pop song (haha, I wish!), not like minimal, brute force techno.

  • @scottdanesi
    @scottdanesi Před 4 měsíci +2

    This is really great! I always get stuck being way too intentional and forget my punk style roots of creating techno like this. This method also directly applies to breakcore as well, which is awesome. Thank you so much for this video. Now off to write some tunes. :)

    Nice video! Arturia does a software version of your Culture Vulture (which they call Dist Tube_Culture), and it's become one of my most used distortions.

    The bit when u put the Drumazon midi to a bass patch was the best part.

    First liking then watching ❤ thank you for listening to us!! Not sure if you saw my comment on the 2nd latest video, but with CDWs creation of a label dedicated to Bonzai records, it would be cool to see something related to that old school style. Again, thank you Oscar

  • @1800KLIENFELD
    @1800KLIENFELD Před 4 měsíci

    Also too some distortion vsts sound great on hats BUT you have to have a kick drum mimicking the same pattern to get that distortion fizzle. Just low pass the kick out. Great trick too. Also playbeat 3 is a sick sick drum machine.

  • @JesseAndTheMoon

    You know too that Convo reverb before amp is pretty nasty stuff. Just move the room size and decay for some nasty ass distortion. Pretty dope. Hey also this is a great video! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

    Hey, Great Tutorial as always. Just wondering: are you tuning your drum samples to the key? Or at least to a note in the scale? Or you think you don’t need that for your drum sounds? Really wondering what’s your opinion on that :)
    Cheers!

    Drum machine? Synth? I don't have any of those things, and I haven't made but one bit of electronic sound using Garageband (I won't even call is music 🙂) - I'm just a wannabe. But I love listening to your descriptions about making techno/electronica. Maybe someday for me. 😃✌

    Drumazon thru decap to tape dist on ozone to resample boom. I also do that same chain through NI driver with super high resonance and low pass the shit out of it resample that for some dirty sub layer. 🤪 but my tracks suck.
