ADAM Audio was founded in March 1999 in Berlin. Since then the company has been developing, manufacturing and distributing loudspeakers in the field of Professional Audio.
The development of the X-ART (eXtended Accelerating Ribbon Technology) tweeter based on the 1960’s invention of the Air Motion Transformer by Oskar Heil was largely responsible for the company’s founding. Producing sound not with a piston-like diaphragm as is done in most of the loudspeakers that are on the market, but using a pleated diaphragm that is capable of moving the air 4 times faster than the folds themselves are moving was the appealing idea behind it all. The achieved results were intriguing and gave ample reason for moving forward.

This beat and composition is iconic
🔥
its Hudson Mohawke after all!
Cbat blows everything out of the water
real
was looking for this lmao
💀💀💀
Cbat guy co produced blood on the leaves and waves, impressive to say the least
He also made the watch dogs 2 soundtrack, amazing guy
@@euan5091 you can really hear the choir in waves sounding similar to the loading screen in the game
@@user-op9ko9jb4d exactly, masterpiece of an album
father stretch my hands part 1 and connect by drake also
waves was my shit in 2016! tlop was what made me want to be a producer in the first place
Thank you for watching!
I listened to waves recently and I thought « this sounds like a song from watch dogs 2 », and now I just realized that hudson produced both waves and watch dogs 2 soundtrack
I like your watch dogs themed profile pic
Yeah this is the watch dogs theme, he even used the drums from this video as the official drums on it since kanye didnt like hudmo’s drums
The WD2 theme is iconic as well, sounds exactly like this and I bet was made the same way using Gross Beat. Love using it myself…
NAH I REMEMBER HEARING THE TITLE THEME FOR WATCH DOGS 2 AND THINKING IT SOUNDED JUST LIKE WAVES, OFC BOTH OF THEM WERE MADE BY HUDSON THAT'S SICK
Literally, I just listened to the song and was like wth that's watchdogs 2?
Literally same dudeee
no way he uses FL, such a beast
You are too
After you use it for a little while, it's easy to spot how many high profile producers use it 😂
Just realized, since kanye changed the kicks and removed the snares from waves, he took the drums from this and turned it into the watch dogs theme, even using the same VST to chop up the same chorus sample.
I love the fact that he uses FL Studio as his main DAW and Gross Beat. That’s what I use, so it feels more inspiring to me. Gross Beat is one of my favorite effects because it can automate the whole sampling process and you can create time shift and noise gate patterns really easily with it
I remember listening to HudMo back in the day and then when Ye signed him I thought “yeah that makes perfect sense” and the music they put out is imo the gold standard of where a song should be sonically
Now cbat is blowing up
this video shows how underrated hudson is man. the experimentation he's done for his own material and the influence kanye knew he had just shows mans deserves his flowers
This man also made Cbat
why doesnt this have more views
It's getting there, thank you for watching!
Outstanding use of the synth in this song. Puts me on another planet.
Such an underrated producer. Those who know, know about Hudson Mohawke.
You could hear the similar pattern he ended up using for the watch dogs 2 theme in the making
the reason i loved this song so much is because it reminded me of watch dogs AND NOW YOU'RE TELLING ME KANYE WROTE IT?!?!?!?!?
sorry im stupid THE PRODUCER not KANYE im dumb lmao
@@thequackingpanda6129 lol yep, Hudson mohawke is Goated. Check my page, I added them together in one. (Not the best but will replace that vid later lol)
i swear, when i play WD2 its remind me of this song lol
Hudson Mohawke made Butter in FL, that is all you need to know about the man, absolute LEGEND!
I had no idea that album was made in Florida! Love Hudmo!
the song lives off the contrast between Chris Brown and Cudi imo
Ye a mix of them and more for me
Damn this the same guy who made the Reddit sex song 😮
I feel like this video can be an inspiration to a lot of artists out there, you don't have to have the most skill technicality-wise, you just have to know what's catchy and have a good ear for that. It can create legendary songs like this one.
Absolutely 👌 Thanks for watching!
Sick as hell to hear that other sample that they took out, that shit sounded crazy
This is still on my top 25 played. After looking up the samples I fell in love even more. Amazing song from start to finish
The fact that this is the same guy that made cbat is crazy
I thought Kanye was the one who removed the pure moods sample. Now that I know it was this guy who did it, idc that it was removed anymore 😂 Now I’m going to do a deep dive on this guy. What a genius
his new album is mental! Check it out
yep hudson is e0pic
Simplicity is key and this beat is a perfect example of that mantra. We hope you enjoy this video and to all our U.S. viewers, have a healthy and wonderful Thanksgiving holiday 👊
picked up one of your 10” Studio Woofers. Very well made 💪🏻 and now I don’t have to do go out and do a car check to get my sub sonics right!
Hi GoodLuckBeatz! glad to hear!!:)
Every time Cudi's voice comes on I start floating bro
🌊
my fav beat on tlop. holy fuck this is illuminating
That Enigma sample under some drums is amazing.
Yeah I got a crazy ass idea for it. Had it 4 years
Even the drums on the original enigma song are pretty hard. It’s a fcking dope song 🔥
Waves is one of my favorites off LoP album for sure
i remember playing WD2 and its remind me of this song lol
Well yeah kanye didn't pay shit so he reused it in watchdogs 2
As soon as I heard the choir I knew it was Hudson Mohawke. The WD2 theme lol
One of my favorite beats of all time. Thank you for creating this video.
Thanks for watching, Thomas!
I wish they left the enigma sample in. It was fire.
absolutely dumbfounded by finding out this information. i don't know what to do with it.
He used the same gated pads for the watchdogs 2 ost
THAT ENIGMA SAMPLE THOOOOOO 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Can't wait to see more of these videos! Absolutely love it! 🙏🏽
Thank you for watching Kareem!
Awesome guys 👍 Waves is my favorite song off TLOP and this, this is great!
Happy to hear it, thanks for watching!
holy S, Damn, you guys bringing the best people
Thanks for watching, there's more to come 👌
THIS VIDEO DESERVES MORE VIEWS.
such a good video! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
simple yet genius.
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching Avery 👍
Can we please stop for a sec and look at this beautiful view this guy has at his house every freaking morning..
No wonder he creates vibes like this with such an iconic view man
this is so cool thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
So good
His new album so good "Bicstan" such great vibes
Oh shit didn’t know people do these kinds of videos !!! Nice 🎉
GOAT production
I just found this out, one of my favourite games and a fucking amazing song
Is it possible to find the “alternative” with a sample and/or extra drums somewhere? It sounds so good omg haha
yeah youtube waves demo/og you’ll find it
@@devins7341 thx man i appreciate it
I love to hear him breakdown, Drake- connect! That's sucks a awesome vibe
Master peace
Absolute legend, bless Hudmo
🔥
Bruh even his pc is crackling haha i thought it was my speakers
we need more of these breakdown videos ADAM! :)
We'll be sure to release some more 👊
I love my new adam audio a5x
So happy to hear it, Edgar! We hope they treat you well for years to come 👍
i guess they said FL studio for any professional production
its so refreshing to see that even kanye production involves the use of this DAW.
marketing is only industry standard----- guess they never say musical standard.
Yass 🏴
never knew waves was mad ross, always thought it was chance and ye
🌊
One of the most beautiful songs in humanity
So awesome. How did you decide on the chord progression was it off the top of the head or from the sample
Sounds like it came from that original sample
goat 🐐
What PC monitor is that?
Hey guys, what keyboard is he using?
how does he make brass so massive
I want that Tania sample
Can you explain where you got the “turn it up” sample!!!!! Every time I find a source it never sounds like it’s the right sample. Help me find it!!
It's the "Vox (4)" from the BWB THE WAVE Vol. 2 sample pack
Ive always known of hudson mohawke, but ive never known what he looked like and this is not what i imagined he looked like lol
I wonder which part Kanye & Metro Boomin did
Sex song guy makes some really dope songs
Those studio monitors tho!
The ADAM Audio S3Hs 🔥
imagine the cpu load of that pc
It sounds like the Watch Dogs 2 theme
Was thinking the same 🤔
He also produced that?
@@user-lb1op2gn9d yup, the full soundtrack
Cause it is!!!
he has several versions of FL studio in the taskbar lmao
Had hudson used the first sample" from an Enigma track." Wouldn't he have to pay enigma for it's use ? Such a grey area I still don't get it.
Yes he would've ha to clear the sample
What track??
@@chainsawteddybear Return to innocence by Enigma. can hear him play this on youtube at 1.00 . in saying that . Enigma chopped a lot of their samples form other stuff .. sample of a sample of a sample .......... Inception
1:00 would have been good as a breakdown section but I guess the song was fire as it is so...🤷
🔥
If you like it than you should definitely check out the dorian ye mix of the album
@@woofpack3 where can that be found? I had it years ago and lost it. Incredible album. Any idea where I can find it?
Ok so I'm looking at the levels of the his mixer at the first at 0:25.... and they are so much higher than what ive learned. What is he using to compress those sounds lol. Every time I get in the +2db range i'm clipping. Is it sound selection, compression or just for the video. Ridiculous. Im guessing the mixing engineer is correcting this right?
There's a video that goes over that quite well, look up;
"The Future of Mastering: Loudness in the Age of Music Streaming"
To answer abit, those audio levels you see in a mixer are misleading and not the true way to determine loudness. (Yes, this blew my mind when I learned all previous advice was a lie...)
@@vj7248 Yea after doing further research eventually I kinda figured this out. Now all my mixes are basically looking like this relatively 😂. Crazy thing is I had that video bookmarked from like 3 years ago and watched it, and probably disregarded cause I didn't fully understand it. Thank you though.
So what was Chance’s involvement?
would rather watch one of these with him doing one of his wild songs. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Fl studio
Isn't this the watch dogs 2 theme song?
yh but i think the album “The Life of Pablo” was before.
hudson produced both
So him and Chance The Rapper created this song?
Nice video, but it seems that only left/right is present, but nothing what defines the mid.
Watch Dogs 2 anyone?
😅 😅
oh wow, return to innocence !!
not even recognizable, great work.
canye west
gross beat will never die
who is hudson moWhawk
I prefer music made by human beings. And Kanye…?
those drums were trash
I think everyone disagrees
doesnt sound like the final version drums
Man I think everyone disagrees with you here.
