Thanks for watching today and a big hug to you if you share this video with someone! - Hudba
Let us know what you thought of the music! Everyone's full tracks are linked in the description if you want to listen without our commentary :)
How come everybody looks so different and you look exactly the same from the first episode
This is honestly some of my favorite content on CZcams: great music, wonderful personalities, but also very informative on how the music making process works! 😱
Please don't ever stop this series of 4 producers I absolutely love it when I see it in my video feed
i love she from 1 time awesome live Ableton live performance she is the best yes for sure !
What an absolute banger!
Lord forgive me for I have synth
This comment deserves more likes.
And the award for comment of the year goes to...
_claps claps_
You've won this comment section
Top comment of the century.
Cuckoo doesn't even need headphones. He just plugs the audio cable in to the audio port in the back of his head.
Lmaooo
Lmaoooo 2
It's the hair :)
kkkkkk
Loool
Andrew and Rachel: "What genre is this?"
RMR: "Yes."
Beautiful insanity
It reminds me of PC music
yeeeaaassss
Metaroom
Me: real dubstep
Keep coming back here to listen to Rachel's part, she seriously killed it
best one hands down
YES YES YES!!!!!!! SO FRIKKING HAPPY TO HAVE BEEN PART OF THIS - Andrew, Cuckoo and Jeremy you are LEGENDS OF LIFE xxx
Awesome track RKC!
Your track was easily my favourite, great work!!!!
You're a legend as well Rachel!!
@@brianbrill Thank you Brian xxxxxxxxxxxx
@@austinbru haha cheers Austin x
Andrew: "What genre is this?!?!"
Rachel: "What genre is this?!?!?!"
Cuckoo: "its smiley music (:"
Best moment when he drinks tea and is laughing 😂
Reminded me of
Aphex Twin - Window Licker
:D
Yeah heavy Warp Records influences from that track. So I‘d say IDM
@@bigmannce Came here to say exactly this, No clue what genre but I knew exactly the vibe it gave.
It was pure Experimental, the genre.
2:36- Rachel
7:36 - Red Means Recording
12:06 - Cuckoo
18:08 - Andrew
Thank you.
Thanks. I needed to skip that 3rd one.
Fat thicc and stanky are the best ways to describe a song.
Spicy also
and fuddy
I love to say "filthy" and "dirty" for dem beats
lets not forget ice cold. oh and that shits fire
Rachel is a criminally underrated Producer and Vocalist. Her instincts are nucking futz.
WOW thanks dude appreciate that xxxxxxx
Sei forte Rachel
Agreed. When she dissects a track I'm paying attention to every single detail.
Her's was the best amongst them all.
@@Bobcoolyoung I agree
I like how Rachel just casually drops the bop of the year in a vid to show off a $300 synth
I want Rachael's song with Cuckoo saying "Nice", "Nicely done" to hear while I code
dude fr 😂
I dig Rachel's way of thinking. She structures her song like it was a rock tune and give it a pop-twist without being cheesy, like Andrew said. And her voice is just... 👌👌👌👌
such f.cking good vibes all around
Watching Rachel and Cuckoo listen to your track was such a treat ☺️ the range of sounds you got got out of the MF was nuts, Jeremy! Pleeeease make more MF videos. I have one in the mail 😁
Your song is like riding a roller coaster! Crazy stuff!!
OMG you use the same space cat lock screen that I do - JEREMY WE ARE KINDRED SPIRITS lol, love you bro, keep on being beautiful.
Loooooved your track! 🔥
Rachel's track is so sick! It sounds very professional not like something done for a challenge!
Sounds like a hit.
Sounded like a hit to me. I'm not usually that much into pop for the most part but that was a great track.
@@contemptcreatorarthurave4042 Yeah, that song absolutely could hit Top 40
The other three kinda sucked tbh, Andrews was fine the other two were amateur hour
@@HiLoMusic Red Means Recording' one is a masterpiece
Rachel: Let´s party!
Jeremy: Let's mix it up!
Cuckoo: Let's Chill!
Andrew: Let's bassline!
Jeremy’s was killer. Loooooots of references to “Windowlicker” by Aphex Twin. I’m actually surprised no one said anything about the rhythms he borrowed!
And Kraftwerk in the opening
because most people are children who haven't heard of aphex twin. "what genre is this?" "will this be a hit?" "is this what kids think as cool today?" not one producer appearing in this channel (even andrew himself, who is a technically proficient producer, can identify all the notes, chords and effects in any track) will ever write/produce a single track as groundbreaking/influential as an aphex twin b-side.
@@deeptracy23 Jesus chill lmao
@@deeptracy23 HAHAHAHAHA you sound so salty its funny.
@@mariospaziante7604 I knew that sounded familiar!
Totally blown away by what y’all made! Such vibes ❤️
THICC!
How do I get "Cuckoo" got?😶🕴️🙃
Wow your tracks were all amazing! :)
Signature Cuckoo sound, what a vibe!
loving the concept spin! (especially with my recent interest in hardware lol)
all tracks are such bangers!!!
Andrew needs to bring you back!!
HELLO!!! I want to spend time with celebrities. Just kidding. GAGAGAGAGA! I only want to spend time with my two girlfriends and record CZcams videos for with the 3 of us. OH YEAH. Don't hate me for living the best life, dear knlove
220920 is so good!
hi ilwag!
ANDREW PLEASE BRING GHOST BACK PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS
Rachel's song was phenomenal!
Cuckoo is such an animal. Truly a signature sound he’s crafted for himself.
andrew: heavy
jeremy: hello
cuckoo: T H I C C
😂😂😂😂😂
God, everyone looks so different from the first episode. It’s been so long.
And then there’s Andrew. Andrew doesn’t age.
I'm impressed with how Andrew's body has gotten more buff looking. Glad to know he's keeping physically healthy. It's seriously important
Andrew is immortal thats why lol
Andrew is an android
@@leixo actually? Does look like it tho, let's see if he deletes ur comment
Yeah... He just has kids lol
RMR: "This has so much stank. The room stinks right now, Thanks Rachel" Is probably the greatest compliment someone can recieve.
My favorite part about this whole series is seeing you all listening, appreciating, and supporting each other through each session. It's wild hearing all of these different songs through everyone else's ears and seeing what aspects they admire in each other's work. Thank you for bringing all this together!
Doooooope!!! 💜💜
💜💜💜🙏🙏🙏
So many big names in this comment section.
Literally came here from your studio tour 💕
Neon Vibes your so ... 2:43 ... t h i c c
Your track in the sample challenge was super sick!
Arturia should be paying Rachel for a Microfreak theme song.
So true!
Do you know if the song of Rachel is out??
So, we can basically agree that Rachel won.
Agree
Matter of taste, i missed complexion and energy in her song
Yeah she litterally made a whole song for this video
@@LimTind I feel like the rest are too technical about it so the songs were too busy. Separation in the elements was key for me. and the vocals were icing on that cake
Rachel did well... but Jeremy's song is the only one I downloaded and have put into my playlist. I get the points made here by others. But, I don't want vocals as much as possible, I listen to electronica to get away from having to listen to someone's voice while still listening to something interesting, and I only listen to electronica when I listen to music. Jeremy's song hit it on the head for me, almost a little too well. I visualize a whole action scene, robbers exploding a vault and hoofing it to their getaway vehicle. Then at the full drop, hover car chases through dystopian mars colony ghetto on the way out of the city. They make it to the open desert at the break, get to their hideout and relax for a second. Only to be raided by SWAT and all out gunfight at the next build and drop, resulting in the SWAT team winning, and finding a hostage... I wonder if the next song will carry the story?
Here again, Rachel did well, but it's a little slow for me, and too much vocals. But hey, I'm just a DnB, Jungle, and Techno junkie.
All 4 of you together would make an epic tech pop group. Festivals would be in the bag
Agree!!!!!
Jeremy: Getting a kick is super easy.
(27 steps later)
And now you have a kick.
barely an inconvenience
Infinitely easier than browsing through thousands of kick samples for a few hours. 🤣
@@Yuzuki1337 been there...daaaamn you're right
@@commissariorex Me too mate, me too :)
Rachel's track just keeps on going and keeps on giving. Every time you think it's gonna wrap up, there's more round the corner to explore.
I read this comment before I heard her whole track and didn't realize you weren't exaggerating. like at all
Except the last time, when it actually wraps up.
@@JCBigCat Nah mate, it's still going. She's just a master of using silence to enhance the experience.
What's crazy, rewatching this in 2022, is that the Microfreak now has practically double the capabilities as it had when this video was made (thanks to the firmware updates); such an amazing synth!
You just sold me on it. Need to go check under my bed for spare cash.
@@shannonia81 to be honest I think it's one of the most flexible hardware synths period, especially for the price so not a bad choice, especially if you don't already have a bunch
Rachel track was sooooooo dope...
n i c e
what happened to the ep breh?
heyyo!
Imaginary Ambition I thought you might’ve forgotten ur password lmao
ayyyyyyy
pls finish the ep
Holy F**k this was dope... My favorite was Rachel's track.. Need that on spotify asap
It’s up there 👆🏼 thank you Theconman xxx
@@RachelKCollierRKC ask andrew to change the video title to " 3 producers and one artist " 🙏🙏🙏
What I love about these kind of episode/project is, how they're very supportive towards each other. I love this vibe from all of them!
Cuckoo’s was awesome. So unique. Loved the way that everything seemed to be happening in a distinct space. And yeah Rachel wrote a pop banger just like yeah ok here ya go. Love this series
Ok I wrote this before listening to Andrew’s and it was so freaking rad
@@Thayne2222 is was the worst imo lol
I like Rachel’s hers was a vibe
All the tracks were great but Rachel won this one by a mile. Honestly so good!
👏👌🤗
Jeremy’s was my fav but they’re all great.
Andrews won it for me I thought Rachels vocals were a little to backgroundy for me.
@@Kdkjdjewerdnxa Im halfway and RMR already won by a mile, the next two will have it tough
The information density in huang's track is just so pleasing
Jeremy: *does music*
Andrew and Rachel: What genre is this??!
Cuckoo: This is smile music
This was one helluva masterclass in getting the absolute max out of a tiny little synth. I bow to your skills, from the insane sound design to the composition (esp. Jeremy's!) and crazy level of production, all four tracks were just fantastic. Bravo 👏

@@sigmathletics most channels give patreons or channel supporters the unlisted link in advance as a perk of being a supporter! :)
@@iluv2cheer176 ohh
@@iluv2cheer176 this 😁
Just here to say that I actually got to know the artists and their channels (Cuckoo, Rachel K. Collier AND Red Means Recording) all thanks to the earlier '4 Producers 1 Sample' collab you did together. And it has enriched my life, THANKS SO MUCH FOR THAT!
Cuckoos behind the scenes was so well made. His workflow with his voice is so soothing.
Rachel's track is just another level
Everytime I see a the word “4 producers” I almost pass out from happiness
same, my man. same.
Same 😭
HAHAHAHAH love red means recording man. "This has so much stank" "my room just stinks rn,Thanks Rachel.."
I love this series.
Not only for how people interpret a sample and hoe different their beats are, although they started at the same point.
What I enjoy even more, is how appreciative all the producers are.
They all enjoy eachothers outputs so much, it's awesome
@ANDREW HUANG I totally agree with some of us pointing out this godness upon B part at 19:11 ! So uplifting. Seriously it's just so good ... I just wish, as jeremy did I guessed by seeing his reaction (he's so into it, strong emotion, Rachel feels deeply touched too), that this part would come back again as a D part before outro. It's almost as we can guess you kinda weren't planing on making this a more polished track, but just enjoying playing with the microfreak. Still, this part alone deserves IMHO to be the focus of a longer version. I would love a re-edited version of this with more of that ''so well felt'' holly part ! ... 😍 My favorite outcome of this session !
I keep on playing again and again these 4 tracks. I did enjoy seeing you four reunited. So much energy, joy and respect for each others. Best mood.
@Rachel K Collier , Your track is obviously way too good, it's a hit on my personal playlist, the best one I've heard from you. Spot on feeling on this one. Voice treatment is so cool. Nice contrast with bassy frequencies. I dig your univers more and more. You're fun. You just nailed it hands down, full stop !!! ...
@True Cuckoo You're a gemstone from the sky and inimitable. Such a style. You're a pillow made of clouds softness.
@Red Means Recordings Jeremy, yours is critically just thick, brilliant, uppercharged. You pushed the microfreak to a delight of earcandy madness. Master level. Love your presence and energy on cam btw.
But really Andrew, ... Man, you may not realize how INTENSE and rich is what you've put out here with this floaty mood ! ... Visionary ... Simply thanks a lot for this gift 🙏 (may you feel like making my wish come true 🙄😊)
Rachel made me smile and gave her track such an eclectic poppy feel
Jeremy absolutely smashed it... and all this was with ONE SYNTH??? Jeeeeesus.
Cuckoo is such a chill vibe mastermind... I can't get enough of him
Andrew, you reminded me so much of Jean-Michel Jarre with your track, it gives me good ol' goosiebumples.
Brilliant job, you four! I'd love to see this series continue! It gives much more perspective to just how different each producer is, not only in their style of music, but also their limitations to what they can create with! I've learnt a lot from this episode probably more than any other 4 Producers video. ♥
Even when you have no idea what your doing (like me) the Microfreak is mad fun to play with and just enjoy, it makes me want to make music XD
Jeremy killed!! Such a crazy good track!
The way how cockoo's "nice" are perfectly fitted into Rachel's song as if they were supposed to be there 😎
Very cool, but can you do it WITHOUT one synth?
- 4 producers - No Synth.
maybe this is a joke but i think it could be cool to find environmental sounds
czcams.com/video/3LBoxsE_8bE/video.html
Andrew did one from a squeeking door, so...🤷♀️
How about 4 Synths No Producers?
4 Producers Only Samples
Rachel's could be on the radio.
*Should, deffinitly should
Had that kind of early Daft Punk vibe. If she released this, it could be huge!
No one picked up on her "microfreaking" play...
Almost 500K listens on Spotify...

I’ll always love Cuckoo’s use of reverb/dimension
🙏🏼🙏🏼 I appreciate it mate! Thanks!
Rachels song makes me want to dance in my apartment at 4AM wearing only my underwear and wool socks in poor lighting, ignoring the rest of the world.. thats the best way i can put it lmao
LOLOLOLOL love that description!!!
As someone who may or may not have done that...can confirm. Lmao
Why you gotta describe my exact situation but at 11:34 pm
If you are a man that would be totally another level
same here, except its 1:44 am and im wearing pants
They were all fantastic. I think I give a slight edge to Rachel's piece. But again, they were all right up there. Great work, all.
After a year of restriction Andrew's song's energy reminded me painfully of how I miss going to the club. Can you still imagine raving to this at 150 db with 1,000 people in a huge club?
Il definetly gonna dance to this song when im cooking in the kitchen. thx Rachel
Everyone brought a gun to knife fight... except you all brought a nuke instead. Absolutely insane tracks. I'm going to listen to just these for the next week probably.
And the editing is fantastic as always, You're killing the game Andrew.
already was blown away on the first track, and with the next track, I didn't expect it to do that to me again and was proved wrong. and that happened with each track in the video. I'm so impressed, and I'm usually kind of a snob when it comes to music lol
This is easily the best iteration of this series. I've watched this video four times already and all of the tracks get stuck in your head in various ways. There is so much talent here it's unreal.
You know the music is good when every musician looks absolutely disgusted. This was so cool. I need to bust out my own MicroFreak again.
Bro, I was just watching ur new video lol 😂
The most impressive feat is the mixing/mastering of this video. balancing music, narration, and youtube compression, great work
Wow Andrew's track is incredible
Cuckoo is so relaxed and chilled! I love his demeanour! :) Followed him too. Rachel too. So much fun listening to these for sure Andrew. Thanks for making the platform to see and experience! Best idea you ever did for us music producers.
YOOOOO Rachel's Track Need's to be released!!!! I want to listen to it in the ride!!! (Edit:) I see the link in the description... Got it.. Thanks for sharing
Inspiring shit, dudes.
Blown away.
@Riccardo Giacoppo
:D :D :D
Porco skifo è uno sballo!
Spaccano un botto, traccia di Jeremy secondo me la più figa, comunque incredibile che ti becco in tutti canali che seguo ahah
Brilliant idea for a series full of awesome personalities who I love to watch. This really is some of the best of CZcams.
So many unique ideas. Amazing seeing the personalities sing through the song journey each of them created.
I totally want a shirt that has Cuckoo saying "This is smile music"
I want a shirt that says: “That’s so good it makes me mad” lol
Rachel's hands down.
Jeremy the Boss blowing the guys and gals away and giving out the song for free on dropbox. Badass
Epic episode! So cool tracks! That was big pleasure to hear it. Great job!
Damn Rachel! Loved all of these but she made the best thing I’ve heard on this series so far
WOW thank you so much xxx
Rachel’s song sounds like something that could get big! It’s giving me a bit of Tove Lo
Hey, nice to see you here. ❤️
So cool! Love the concept! Random object or instrument sent around to the producers to sample is so fun. And it's great to see the OG producers back in the series! Some of my faves of all the 4 Producers collaborators.
need a new episode of this, nothing against sample flips, but one-synth-challenges has special vibes.
Classic Andrew move: hits one note, plays entire melody
A compliment from just one of them means a lot
Very true
Woah I was not expecting you on a Andrew huang video, are you interested in music production?
Didn't expect u here :3
I knew you were a fookin musician!
Y’all are amazing!! You all inspire me to keep pushing and learning!
Everyone: Wow I love how well you used reverb, and space to make it sound like its in a room.... love your vocals, its so much presence the mix is amazing.... love how you got it so spacious..... I cant help but smile when I listen to your music, the sounds are all over the place"
Andrew: "wow THAT was cool! That little SWOOPY noise."
Lol I’d just typed “I love how informative this series is and how it explains the music process” and Andrew just said “oh that was a cool climby thing.” 🤣
When you can get everyone to go "What genre is this?" while smiling and grooving, I think you've won.
It is totally amazing to see and hear what could be done with only a little synth, some vocals and LOTS of creativity! All four tracks are great! Thank you to all four participants for this impressive demonstration.
I love watching these and seeing each artist appreciation for each track
the dude with the long hair is a ✨vibe✨
Rachel: "I love how you get it so spacious, I definitely struggle a bit with that"
No, Rachel. No you don't.
This was the best 4 Producers video yet :D I love it~
Y'all are incredible! Hats off! Thanks for this!
Reaction Timestamps:
Rachel: 2:35
Jeremy: 7:36
Cuckoo: 12:05
Andrew: 18:10
The hero I was looking for.
69.... nice
One thing I noticed is that Andrew and Rachel both have golden pineapples on their tables.
This distracted me for a bit from the gigantic gap in creativity between me and the people featured in this video.
Relatable
I reread this comment 3 times and I saw apple every time.. I was so confused and kept rewatching Andrew and Rachel's clips looking for an apple but only seeing pineapples.. then it finally clicked and I read it correctly... So I wasted like 5 minutes of my life being confused for no reason. The end.
where tf is andrews golden pineapple
I kind of give up to be honest. Amazing.
"This distracted me for a bit from the gigantic gap in creativity between me and the people featured in this video." This.
Yes ! I love this synth and i was hoping you'll cover it one day and i'm super happy !
Its so fun, to have been on CZcams and follow these producers for so long and then see them challenge eachother and jam out on their tracks. This is amazing.
I absolutely love this series! Just listening to all of the different approaches and results is amazing, and all of you are so supportive of each other. As always, 10/10. 😁
Wow, I wouldn't have wanted to play my track after Rachel. She made an absolute BANGER!!!!! Good job everybody else, but I'm giving the trophy to the lady. She smashed it!!!
This is the best combo it has been here on the show! I keep constantly coming back.
