    Wow, this makes me feel a little better about my musical experiments. I too name tracks with crap names, and often will just create interesting loops that I then end up layering, and then once I have a ton of things happening, start to separate them out. I thought I was just amateur (well, I am) but nice to know my method isn't actually that terrible!

      i was also kind of reliefed to hear that building a layered section or a hook and then building up everything around it doesnt seem so uncommon.

      @@FirebladeXXL I just started taking producing seriously this year and just stumbled into doing just that, relief to see Im kinda on the right path. I found that just messing around until some idea clicks worked out best for me, often times I just make random drops or progressions then something hits, and when it does I can bang the track out in a day or so. Whenever I try to start a track from the beginning I never get to the first drop.

    While Deadmau5 likes to clown on his "minimal" knowledge of music, he undoubtedly has an obscene sense for what makes a song good, even though he may not always be good at explaining his process in a defined and nuanced way.

    I was a Lighting Designer, in a 24 hour Nightclub and the best record makers that I ever heard were actually the Top 40 remixers of the late 90 and early 2000s. Hex Hector, Tony Moran, Thunderpuss, and others would use very few elements, but the Arrangements were so great and the sound choices that became thier sound was so distinctive. Unlike today's records, they had no drops, just usually on breakdown. If you list to the 2007 remix of the Freemassions Love Sensation, it might be pound for pound the Greatest dance record ever produced.

    A key to original content within a structure is to engage with the structure consciously. For instance take an intro, you know the standard structure and then you want to change something about that. But then think about what you want to change, engage with it, think it out a little bit. If lets say you want to deviate from the typical length then think about why, what makes you like that more than the standard structure, and how could that be translated into other parts of the music?

    Love him or hate him, this is basically the Beethoven and Mozart of our time in the same room. It's hilarious watching Deadmau5 say some off the wall shit and then Steve come in trying to translate what he said in a more polite tone.
    Deadmau5 composed some of the greatest pieces of electronic music and Steve Duda engineered some of the best tools producers use to this day. I think it's apt to call them the "Beethoven and Mozart" of our time.

      being good at sound design (for electronic bass music) is basically just understanding the harmonics of different waveform/modulation/effect combinations. learn what every serum effect does to different waveforms and then what other plugins do to those serum patches in post processing. over time you will develop an intuition for knowing what something will sound like before you make it. there is no shortcut to this, just do lots of sound design and watch lots of youtube tutorials (ones where they recreate a sound from a song you know are good).
