I think this video answers the question "what techno is about"
To me, a fellow classic rock/indie/instrumental music enjoyer, it has opened a whole new genre to explore
Thank you
its a vibeee love the human hand elements
Fun fact: Techno in its true form has no specific genre. It is a set of principles for unique electronic music creation. Basically, digital Jazz.
Amazing tutorial, though!
Thank you. It’s art
That along with Mills’ definition of Techno: The Sound of the Future.
Isn’t that what defines genres lol the style of principles used etc
@@sederquest Dub ,Breaks ,Electro ,Techno, House, Neo Trance, Yes diffenrent Styles
4 years on I'm only just watching this, wicked tutorial and take on Techno.
Really appreciate this type of tutorial. It’s very thoughtful and in depth and compared to others, actually helps in understanding in what’s going on with foreign software and hardware. I use FL and no hardware but feel like I could use ableton and your gear and start playing straight away. Keep doing this and you might help lots of us.
FL is good.
what i love about ableton as someone that has no musical talent is how straight forward it is. FL felt like everything was hidden in menus and was more about graphics
Man this was so helpful. Thank you so much! Its funny how when you don't know what you don't know, it makes it so hard to fill in the gaps. This filled in some gaps that have caused me so much discouragement in my learning process. Thank you so much! Liked and subscribed! I hope I can find more help from you!
This is my fourth time rewatching this video and FINALLY I understand what you mean.
Awesome tutorial, easy to understand even if you're just starting out. Gem
Great video, love it, very easy to understand, and a decent techno track the time spent on it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
you killed it bro!! I needed thisss
my god I love your clarity!
jesus! What an amazing way of explaining music!
Really awesome tutorial! I appreciate you taking the time to show your process :)
Super Sick demo! I always wondered how some techno tracks have so much for the listener. Thank you!
Glad you like it!
Amazing tutorial. Thank you and stay blessed!
Thanks for showcasing this workflow technique. 'live' creation and editing of the tunes is just way more intuitive for me compared to the 'use mouse n keyboard to draw out some random midi stuff'.
Happy to help!
Also, that part where you said techno doesn’t have to be four on the floor, I really really really appreciate that
Nice video. Good rhytm, good vibe! Thank you and take care your fingers xD
This guy is straight dope. Look forward to all his tutorials when I see his name pop up in my feed.
Wow wasn´t expecting to find this much information in the video. This video is really focused on techno music. The video presents a really accurate workflow and creative process to achieve that techno feeling. Love it! suscribing now
Excellent tutorial, really enjoyed it and learned a few new things as well, thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Great tutorial Lewis, thanks.
Wow, messing with the parameters of the chord stabs really brought that to life at the end!
Tysm, did everything as described
Love how you compare the role of the groove in techno with that in funk. So true.
I'm not sure why, but I read this video title as "Basics Of Techno With Lewis Black" and was really thrown for a loop. XD
Lewis Black loves two things. Telling it like it is, and educating people on the foundations of different genres of electronic music
Same. I thought I was going to get a techno lesson yelled at me for 10 minutes 🤣
That would be hilarious, I can hear him talking about it now!
sidechain, jackass!
Same dude lol
This was awesome instructions. Thanks.
Super tuto ! Super workflow! Merci 🤩
Happy you enjoyed it! We go live everyday
This video was great. Made my own little techno song in about half an hour after watching and I’m just having a blast twisting the knobs and screwing around
That’s what it’s all about honestly
That was super enjoyable!
Great tutorial, thanks! Out of interest, how come you stacked the reverb for the kick in an effect rack, rather than set wet/dry to 50?
thanks, it actually let me through so i could download it.
11:56 "a big part of tecno is trying to subvert expectations" nothing has ever been more true.
How do I set these Arturia settings as in the video?
Thank You, mai friend... this si really important to know
You are welcome
works, keep up the good work man
Very Nice! Thanks for this! 😀 👊
Any time!
Thank you! Much love for this
Any time!
nice workflow with making the automations this way////need to try this out
I love the way you describe techno
Thank you!
This is exactly what I needed.
I think your explanation is the best for amateurs that want to start composing music. You made it straight to the point and helped show that it is actually doable. Just one question that comes to mind: Is this the Ableton Live software that you are using?
german hard and dark techno
man its a nice groove you got! the good amount of unusual time signature for each drum sample mixed with the traditional 4/4 and a dry ambiance
It really shows youve been influenced by many kinds of artist and many genre
Thanks! We go live everyday
Its working man!!
Thank you so much for this tutorial dude !
You bet!
That was helpful.Thanks a lot Lewis
great video!
That sounds great, nice end result there
Thanks 👍
A very awesome video! Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
Great stuff, Lewis!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you very much
amazing!!!!!
Newbie here. How did you drag all the clips to arrangement view? Thanks.
never understood producing techno so good . thanks!!
Happy to help!
Just curious, Is this the way you write? When I get wrapped up in automation so early (in Logic Pro) and then continue making and moving things the software continually bugs me about moving automation/copying automation. I have to wait until the mixing stage or I go insane. I am guessing this was only for the sake of the video.
Thanks for sharing!
Our pleasure!
Just for clarity’s sake, Derrick May gave Frankie Knuckles his 909…. Juan Atkins is The Godfather Of TECHNO
Very articulate. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing the creative process of creating a very rhythmic feel. You mentioned you were going for the rhythmic feel and would show 4 on the floor later to see how it’s a very different feel. Too bad the 4 on the floor example was missed. But we all know the 4 on the floor is stuck in our heads. So this was a refreshing change.
Thanks for not adding clap, cowbell and whistle! Lol
Is it the last build? Can't find live version :(
Can we take a moment to appreciate the lightsabers in the background haha ? It put me right in the mood for an epic galactic video around techno :) Bravo !
that's a Dan Flavin piece
@@petertakacs8046 lmao how is it a "piece"? it's just two glowing light sticks, i wouldn't exactly call that art or an installation
@@i-never-look-at-replies-lol that's just like your opinion, man
@Dreyarde False. Even if you call the sun art it isn’t. It’s just up there. You have to contribute something to it.
*_This kinda opened up my eyes about another approach to automation!_*
Thanks for that
Great to hear
@5:00 PLEASE what is th keyboard shortcut \ command? #343Labs @343Labs
Great video man, really loved the fact you made it not 4/4 as so many people just listen to the popular tracks and never have a full understanding. This tune reminds me of groove la chord by Arill Brikha btw!
Glad you liked it!
Is not in 4/4?
I just don't feel this kind of beat. It's groovy jeha, but I'm missing the energy. Just a lot of drums playing there... :/
Good video going over the basics, could you do a video with a more in depth dive into what makes techno, techno? Discussing on what the elements convey, and how we connect to such rhythms?
Good Video. Solid fundamentals
Thanks!
Super cool. Thanks bro.
Glad you liked it!
That was fricken awesome, he's a great teacher! Hope he makes more tutorials

Excellent video on the basics of techno. The real essence is the basics which you described so well, from then on it’s your souls that makes the machines talk.
Thanks so much Justine 🙏
Do you have a similar tutorial with 4/4 style
Cheers

Great tutorial
Glad you think so!

Great video!
Thanks for the visit
Sounds like Dub techno 🔥🔥🔥
Wow.. this is really cool
Thanks!
It's like the Dave Clark tracks of old with that repetitive snare on the 16th's. Such vibe. Very oldskool.
Ty I got my first divine because of you
where can i buy that hardware hes using?
cool tutorial
Tnx
Wow, crazy quality video
Thanks! Be sure to check out Justin's livestreams every Wednesday on 343 TV.
neat simple use of analog
Indeed!
as a old f*rt who was in the first wave of techno it pleases me that there are young uns out there with such sensibilities as this young chap. It's not all Drum Code and female celebrity DJ's ya know. Low key...end the festivals...bring back the vibe.
Great vid
Thank you!
i would love to see a video contrasting the modern USA style to the modern german style
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
