Man didnt just make a hit, he made a classic
True
true that!
I realy like his personality and how simple and always smilling he is. He looks like a dude who could be anyone's good friend. He deserves it.
mans mexican so yeah, accurate comment lol
¿Qué esperabas de un mexicano?
Really amazing, I love seeing artist be down to earth and super smiley and friendly. I love the song too I was introduced to this song by my idol ATB, he played it often
I met Deorro about a year before this song was released, being a DJ and promotor i got to meet alot of artists and i have to say Deorro was one of the coolest, and nicest artists i have ever met.
Latino People We Are Like That ❤
Thats is what music production is all about, such a great way to express your emotions through sounds
can never EVER go wrong with five hours
yes u can
@@SupaPLAi what u listen to in ur freetime bucko? edit: Kiddo*?

Bro this made my day, the way he thought to express the emotions & the simplicity behind it all is so inspiring.
We felt the same way!
same
6:55 put your headphones on and make the song that's gonna change your life.
you are such a great guy man
This song means a lot to me. I remember my dad showed me this song and every time I hear it, it reminds me of some really great times with my dad ☺️
Thanks for sharing!
It's the vocal chops that make it a track you can't forget, it's a shame he didn't talk about them
Exactly what I thought man
fr, like why

Deorro clearly loves his vengeance samples
90 percent of EDM producers entered the chat
@@NR-gp2il i prefer kshmr samples sometimes i use vengeance aswell
They are dominating the EDM scene for decades.
@@valesz4140
What do you think cash mere used to make his samples
This is rare to see, such a humble guy.
Most of these producers that got famous for a beat became arrogant af. But this guy is down to earth, I'm vibing with his energy.
He deserved every good thing that happened to him.
Amidst depression and anxiety, where I cant feel anything, hearing this song again today let me feel a little nostalgia, and damn, this song is just so powerful in so many ways.
Hey man, trust me you'll get thru it. Keep pushing along
The greatest battle is against yourself, after that, nobody can stop you.. You got this!
Five Hours is probably my favorite song of all time.
nothing wrong with that
It's insane that his story behind this track matches similarly to the visions I initially had when listening to it for the first time. I always see myself traveling along a distant highway that stretches far beyond the horizon, emotionally wandering and looking forward to a romantic destination filled with excitement, butterflies and nostalgia. Those female vocal chops really enhance the emotional value of Five Hours as well, tying in with my own personal memories of girls I used to fall in love with and have crushes on. Absolutely unreal vibes with this one, it'll never get old and will always be a timeless classic.
Same my guy, but for me it was more a step in the right direction in life than a romantic thing... like you can do anything you f***** want but you have to start an keep going, at one point in the song there's that low slow beat for me its a '' ok you didn't succeed but keep going you got this'' and boom the beat is back louder like ''you did it''
@@boysnel Hell yeah dude, good stuff!
When I was about 12, during the big times of dubstep, I listened to a bit of electro house/mid tempo stuff, and came across deorro. No one knew him in my school so his music felt special to me. When five hours came out, we were on a school bus tour down to spain will all my class mates, I put the track on a small bluetooth speaker, and everybody loved it, I remember all of us, about 20 kids dancing and singing along the track in the bus.
It's great memories and seeing that deorro himself is just an humble down to earth person with an emotional story behind this track makes me so happy
From an interview with MJ talking about "Billie Jean"
Where did your inspiration for the song come from
**points up** "From up above" -MJ
the one thing i wanted to know about was the vocal chops and it’s the one thing he didn’t talk about... sick
ikr
same lol, its prolly from a random drumkit
What about the slow down of the song?
@@birdy702 just a tempo automation i guess. Like Opus - Eric Prydz.
he spoke about it ages ago somewhere, I remember it was just his voice recorded on an iPhone in the Ableton sampler
i always thought that the bass he uses on some tracks from good evenning was recorded from an actual bass. But it seems i was wrong. He is right the octaves give a slap feel
Looks like a Kontakt library
Just finished watching the video, where do I even begin..
1st) so many times I've seen big, respected artists talk about making music while feeling emotional, or during life events, and just "telling their story"
2nd) as many times, if not more, I've seen them mention how they didn't want to release certain songs of theirs but their colleagues convinced them to, and most of the time it ends up a hit!
3rd) the way different sections of the tracks symbolize this 5-hour trip is just beautiful.. no wonder this track hits everyone so deeply but in a fun way.. as it was meant to be portrayed.
Seeing these connections again and again should be a sign for any artist, aspiring or established.
Thank you to everyone involved in this!
The track makes so much sense now. The whole song feels like a journey being played out! Absolutely love it even more now knowing this.
I listened to Five Hours right around when he first released it and before it blew up, I knew it was going to be a hit.
When you know you know!
yo this track was and is still a banger. my uncle loved this track, he showed it to me, passed away last year
Imagine he just said nah i won't release it ☠️☠️
One of the most memorable EDM tracks from the 10s hands down, love it!
What if she was like "meh" after he gave it to her 🤣
"It ain't Martin Garrix but I guess it's ok" 💀
🤣🤣🤣
I'll never forget opening up a HUGE DJ showcase event with this song. I was above these giant LED screens being about 30 feet in the air and everyone looking around at each other during the intro. The anticipation / discombobulated look on their faces I can picture it now haha. When that funky bass dropped everyone LOST IT🤘🏼💪🏼😝!!!
Legendary track 🔥🔥
which DJ was it
”You don need 100 tracks.” That's sooooo true! Simplicity is key
I would’ve never thought of this happening. This is one of my Favorite songs of All Time! The melody is so nostalgic. Thank you Deorro and anyone else who made this happen!😃
We appreciate the support!
Same. This shit is GOAT status
I’m so glad his team convinced him to put it out. So many good memories attached to this song and it’s one of my all time favorite edm tracks ever made.
Yo Deorro if youre seeing this you fucking nailed that vibrancy type feel those sorts of feelings have, i can absolutely hear all of it in the actual track. phenomenal shit, more people need to take inspo
this has always been my favorite song since i heard it. and this video makes me love it even more
This guy is a underrated legend. He still make some perfect tunes...
I love Deorro!
I listen to this song since my early highschool days.
I’m not that much into EDM but nobody could deny this track is something special, you can feel all the emotions Deorro was feeling while creating it, it’s something mystical
I used this song as my Halloween intro people went nutsss good job deorro had chills the whole video
this song still goes stupidddd. timeless.
okay i concede, this man is a genius
ay tonic!
Been waiting for this forever 🔥

Thanks for this❤🙏
Thanks for the video BPM Create!

That's awesome!
Legend!
THANK YOU !
thank you for breakind down this classic 🥰🥰🥰
I would've never guessed the inspiration behind this, I'm blown away rn
Us either! But it makes sense when you listen to it again.
BEAUTIFUL
I have been waiting for this and I can’t believe it’s actually here. Thank you so much 🙏
That intro transition from sorta growl to pluck always blew my mind and I just never could figure out how it was done. Even with it being explained as just having it get filtered with a few other automations blows my mind still. It just doesn't sound like what I would expect the end result to be. I always imagined something taking off in the intro, glad to know that was the intention!
One of My favorite tracks. Love it man!!!
Amazing! Thank you for sharing your story with us!
This was great to watch! Deorro seems like a really cool guy :)
Beautiful video.
I loveeee deorro !! Always showing love to the raza 🇲🇽❤️

This is so fire!! makes me appreciate the song so much more
Great to see this, you are such an inspiration!!! I'm so thankful to you and your team for signing my first song at Panda Funk!! :´) Never forget < 3

Amazing break down man. Super inspiring to see your thought process 👊🏼👊🏼
such a classic 😌 definitely found some inspiration from this video, simplicity is bliss
Loved this track from the moment I had it and I still love it!
Bro, I love the way he just broke this song down into his emotions... when I make my best music it's always when I can feel my emotions translating into the beat or the riff. Fucking DOPE

listening to him explaining his thoughts and feelings about each part of the song is so beautiful to me
This is so awesome 👌

Just love this breakdown. It's honest, emotional and fun. The butterfly part is spot on. Keep going Deorro ❤

I've listened to this song so many times and all from the heart. This song feels even better
Such a timeless song. Still feels like it could have been made in 2023 and still go as hard as it did a decade ago
Damn. love this. please do more of these bpm.
We have more awesome content coming soon!
Can't wait to hear his set when he comes to Chicago on Friday 😁
This is a legendary song. Brings me back to good times with an old friend when we both discovered this song and had it on loop
This song came out the time i was on holiday in turkey. It rememberes me of the best trip ive had so far. ❤️
I think after this video everyone opened Spotify and listened to this great song again ;)
This hit me harder than I was ever expecting
Now every time I hear this song I’m Going to think about every mad journey I’ve ever had
so good!
I have listened to 5 hours for hundreds of hours. It's helped me chase away my inner demons, I've bounced my kids to sleeps with it. It puts my mind back in its groove.
Love how this track actually has a story behind it. Because it means as much to me, It reminds me of the good times, playing it when it first came out and being surrounded with family. Used to play it on repeat 😂
Incredible man
Dude... this song is the epitome of putting yourself into the music. When he explained the initiation of the process it validated the feelings I felt when I heard this for the first and last time. It's truly amazing... Simple and meaningful.
Amazing you can really feel what he put in
One of the most influential EDM tracks out there, very well deserve
