putting aside the time for sound selection... the fact that he produced the whole song to almost exact replication in 20 mins is INSANE. I wish it was THAT easy
it's a testament to how he practices: lots of habit building by repeatedly replicating tracks as fast as possible, initially ignoring the quality (quality would come with practice and fine tuning the habit)
@@elcapitan6126 this comment is pure gold
Speedy repetition is the only way to set up a process and improve it
Take everything end to end
Slowly evething will fall in place
your most joyful moment is hitting cowbell :) great job as usual
The live cowbell gave me goosebumps.
One of the best basslines of the last decade. The whole of the Future Nostalgia album is an amazing showcase of bass.
the only problem is that he did not put in the best parts of that bassline
@@vitopancur1208 additionally, it's an actual bassline created by the amazing Nick Campbell!
Laughed out loud at the "Made it!!!" when you put the cowbell/woodblock in! Great deconstruction as always, thanks so much.
so ‘simple’ so powerful. love it, but i don’t usually like ‘pop’ music, this is on another level. great job.
This song is such a banger...still! Great breakdown and REconstruct of the track. Dua Lipas vox are so butter on that isolated track. Wow. Cheers all!
So great to have a new deconstruction, and one of my fave songs of recent years too. Welcome back, Ski!
So great, love all your deconstruction videos, thanks!
Great simply song pop with 80' vibe thanks funky bass lines, great vocalist and finally a great production on top tier level.
Can’t like this enough! Pretty outstanding work.
ASOLUTE GENIUS! THANKYOU 4 DECONSTRUCTING THIS SORT OF SONGS❤
That was so awsome, amazed at how the individual sounds collaborated to make a one great track
That was a great demo of putting this together. Thanks!
This is one of the songs of lockdown 1 for me… probably too old at 42 for tik tok but so many videos had this tune and although it was a mad time I do have some good memories of the time I wasn’t in work as a key worker, keeping safe at home watching TT
I love these videos; they’re fab ❤
Another Ski masterpiece. So good 😀😀👍
Great job! Very quickly very close to the original. And the bassline - wow!
Great job thank you for the upload!
Mad skills!!! Amazing remake and video ❤
Thanks for this nice remake! Very deep and accurate. Will certainly help me in my project. Also MM Bass from Scarbee has really a unique Funky sound
Great video. I love seeing you get excited about the funky baseline. Reminds me of Nile Rodgers with Daft Punk.
I have learned a lot, thank you so much
Loved it-thanks!
I just love this video. Very cool!! Thanks
Best deconstruction I ever saw. PROPS! 🔥
Thanks for the inspiring video !
Beautiful as always Ski, lovely
Amazing, as always...
nice! this is to show how simplicity is the key
Great stuff
This so great! Thank you
live cowbell is the proof he loves what he does. Amazing tutorial, you can make a hit with so little tracks
Awesome job. You rock :)
I, as an aspiring producer am glad I stumbled upon this channel, lots of learning.
WE are glad you stumbled across us too. Don't forget to subscribe to the channel as we're constantly working to output similar content. Also, check out our website if you haven't already as we offer a host of courses/degrees to help you along your journey as a producer.
Amazing to hear it all broken down. Also amazing that while the exact chords/sounds are being used, it almost sounds nothing like the OG because of the “non quantized” elements of the original. Plus the drums are way more in the pocket.
But this is still FIRE.
Great job Ski!!
Brilliant! Wish I had those skillz. Wow.
You are so talented Ski 🙏🎹💯🎼
What other tracks would you like to see Ski deconstruct?
Would love to see the Oliver Remix of Dangerous by Big Data + Joywave- some of the best production I've ever heard. The bass is incredible!
Illuminations by ski oakenfull 😉
Dua Lipa levitating please :) because i want to understand what kind of sounds at intro section
Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls
Purple Disco Machine - Fireworks :)
Captivating! Love it. Tune that piano.
Fantastic!!
That was so satisfying and actually fun to watch
Simply amazing
You’re making it look so easy. Great job!
love this video
Great! Thank you. 🙏🏻
Great video
i loved this very helpful and insightful would love to see this done with some hip hop tracks who else would like to see this too? thanks for the uploads
this is really amazing
So good!)
Perfect!!!!
Please can you put the Deconstruction videos on a separate playlist? Thanks.
each time great and seems so easy 👌
I loved this
Thanks
A few have alerady ask but . . .What Piano library / VST are you using ? Great video BTW
thanks - i understand this now
Doctor Ski !! Again amazing…
Espectacular
You’re amazing.
Bravo !
great!!
Love that video !!!!
Thanks a lot,
Do you guys know where could I find these kind of drums ?
Is that some Ableton stock drums ?
Amazing.
Great stuff, as ever Ski, thanks! One thing though...Needs more woodblock 😉
so cool!!!!
Ski you are amazing
Thank you for Wht u do
String sounds like the Bourne Theme by Moby
Good ears man! I was going to say the same. "Extreme Ways" intro by Moby...
Would love a link to a downloadable project file to help with the learning process. Or a sample folder.
If Ski ain’t a genius, no one is. Bravo!
Great job, from where your drums sounds come?
My god, thats oustanding! Thx 4 tutorial
which sound/vst are you using fpr the main piano? sounds so nice
Great deconstruction, deffo came out at the end of 2019 tho!
You're sooo cooool !!!!
Amazing breakdown! What is the plugin/vst where he found the "breakdown/arp" track? He said something about "star of live performance".
Good stuff., Which courses exactly does Ski teach?
Very Very Good
You're a beast!!!
Hi man thank you for the great work! It would be AWESOME if you could show how to deconstruct "Premiers Symptômes" by the French Band "Air". I would LOVE to know more of this track! Thank youuuuuuuuu!!! ❤🙏
Woow ❤️ what's the paino Vst used here ?
Next level thing, chorus on acoustic piano at th end.
how do you get that handy seperate piano keys so you can see what you are playing?
Are you able to put a link of where you get the Acapella's?
So entertaining. I love it. Everyone’s a critic right? The techno part at 17:12 should be at 17:11 it’s one of my fav parts. Let me know if that’s a worthy observation. FYI I was hoping you’d recreate the bridge “ don’t come out ow ow, don’t show up oh oh,’ where the vocals are warped and reversed or reverbed maybe. I just love this song. I’m glad u chose this song. It’s complicated for sure. Greta job professor.
Piano VST?? Is it the Giant?
Genius...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Impressive
Where can I get the isolated (a cappella) vocals?
Yo how do you program a plugin into a drum rack @ 1:30 how do you do that? Because I have a plugin with drum sounds but i want to put it into a drum rack. Anyone know? or can reference a tut?
Wow That was a good Class
Hey great video what piano vst are you using for the chords?
Would love to know, too
Dua has credits for the writing as well!
Please do "Porcelain" by Moby!
Although strings from SS pro2 sound almost exactly the same, I think Ian had used Orchestral Collections' VLNSRUN83 sample and added the sustain sample at the end.
What plugin is generating the Piano audio? is it the VMPK or is that just a midi visualisation device?
VMPK doesn't produce any sound. It's just there as a visual aid for the viewer. The (great) piano sound is presumably coming from a multi-gigabyte set of samples in a ROMpler; Kontakt or Keyscape, most likely.
does anyone know what piano his using, it's certainly not a kontakt stock piano
beast..
Where did you took the acapella from?
Could you please make a deconstruction of TAKE YOU DANCING by Jason DERULO? It would be much appreciated! :) GREAT STUFF BTW!
