Producing K-Pop is extremely difficult. This was just an intro a pre-chorus and a chorus but usually K-Pop has different variations for each section of a song and it almost never repeats so you end up having like 90 or more mixer channels by the end of the track with multiple layers, effects, drum kits and even BPMs.
Damn....the mixing, sound design, vocal,even arrangement this is really nailed it. . just like some kpop songs that I would hear on public places. didn't expect it will be top notch level production. glad it's in my algorithm
Did you compare kpop to rock bruhh hahaha rock is the most the most intense and complex genre in music so there is so many great bands like led zeppelin queen pinkfloyd that’s why there music is played for years and tears and live on forever nit kpop do some research bruhh😂😂😂😂
@@damontamang of course there are great musicians in rock and pop and stuff what I'm saying is that I think k pop artist and musicians are highly underrated imagine Justin Bieber singing like he does and dancing as good as professional dancers that's basically jung kook from BTS he's a vocal genius and can dance like a professional dancer (I mean he is a professional dancer) but what I'm saying is that people see it as "self evident" that he can dance so well imagine Justin Bieber doing it he would be considered god or something
I can think of absolutely no one else who can pull of that necklace like that except for you Austin. We're in dire need of high quality kpop tutorials, thanks for making this available so generously!
Damnnnn dope tutorial, this really sounds like NCT or Stray Kids song, I thought the vocal is from Korean Artists at first, OMG, it sounds like Korean, didn't expect all the vocal were recorded and sang by you🤯🤯 I'm so excited to listen to this on streaming platforms, release it!!🔥🔥🔥
Dope, the final product came out well! I've been producing kpop/khiphop recently and seeing the music making process of another producer is always cool.
thank you a lot. also, i would be so grateful if you could please make tutorial of K-pop girlgroup bubblegum pop, songs like The Feels, Knock Knock (TWICE), Cupid (Fifty Fifty). you're like a music wizard i respect you so much you have no idea.
Been waiting for you to make a video of this! Somehow it doesn't seem as intimidating when you went through the process. Thanks Austin for keeping it free for us!!
The best guide for kpop! I guess I do agree there is alot of scale change specially from Phrygian to minor and major … I loved that verse main melody… I guess I have heard this in every kpop song ( blackpink uses this kinda melody with tonal percussions) And they use model exchange and jazzy chords in between parts.. But best part is the way they changes styles and genre within sections and sometimes use different style sample for totally different genres Thank You Austin for this guide! ❤
Very informative! It would be awesome to see how calm-ish kpop songs are made too like "Make It Right" by BTS or "Eight" by IU and Suga, or even pop songs like "Change Ur Mind" by Sarcastic Sounds and "Cold in LA" by Why Don't We. Also, I'm not Korean, but I attempted singing "Life Goes On" by BTS in full-Korean with the karaoke instrumentals. I want to make more original songs than what I've made so far, but my weak point is the production, instrumentals, and mixing of them. I'm trying to learn more and these videos are super helpful, so thanks!
Sounds like that mainly have a slower bpm, and a calming guitar.. Less hitting drums, a simple sub bass, like for eight its mainly a guitar chord progression that drives the song, with some slight fx and drum n snare, if you wanna make something calm you need to start it out with a calm foundation
#kpop producer here awesome video, and your information was spot on .. especially "the verse feels like a song....." 😂 no disagreement here from us in the industry
a follow up video with for songs like blue and grey or for youth by bts would be so cool and I also really like the idea to get a Korean vocalist sing the song (but your vocals where great though)
So much respect that Austin still replies to postes with 177K subscribers. Unheard of. Even though I know it's not him replying but still the effort means a lot.
You should make a video where you predict the sound of The Weeknd's next album. You got clues from his last albums + who he's working with right now (OPN & Metro and Mike Dean mostly)
This was such an inspiration. I would love to see more of this genre. I always wanted to see videos like this and to see you try at this was amazing. It would be nice to see some videos of what you listed at the end as well as artist like Gsoul and other rnb artist.
I'm really glad this popped up on my feed! This was very thorough, and the result speaks for itself. It would be cool to see a followup with another subgenre, something like Red Velvet's "Ice Cream Cake" or Twice and Itzy like you mentioned
Yeah I would love if you make one video showing that happy k-pop style that most big girl groups (like twice,snsd,I.O.I,etc) use at the beginning of their career while the girls are still young, the song very very very by I.O.I is a perfect example and it would be cool too if do another one based on those j-pop songs like PONPONPON by Kyary Pamyu, it's a different type of happy songs.
Can you please answer a really simple question? This video was good, but quite honestly, I need to ask, are supposed to start with chords for the verse? Or the chorus? Or just find chords you like and use the same ones through the whole song? Often groups like TWICE do this where they have the same chords, mostly, through the whole song, although there are instances where they change or add 1 or 2 extra chords. So many videos I have watched have REALLY over complicated what I am trying to understand to a point of pure confusion, and feel like I just shouldn't bother making kpop music at all. Please help advise and explain the process in a more simple form? Also, drums beats, how do you know what drum beat you want? I find using MIDI for drum beats easier than raw wave files because you can adjust them tighter, but how do you decide what feel you want for them too?
What’s the name of the software you’re using??? I’m literally just beginning to explore production, I’ve always been just a singer(and occasionally a lyric writer but nothing good) and the only thing I know vaguely how to use is bandlab because my school used it when we did our music GCSEs😅😅
EXO KINGS AND LEGENDS OF K-POP FOREVER ETERNA-A FACT THAT HAS NO LONGER NEEDS ANYONE'S APPROVAL. POPULARITY AND LEGNDARITY ARE DIFFERENT CONCEPTS.

Can I request Korean OST Style? I don’t know if that’s the right term, but their more emotional ones. For examples - “A poem called you”, “drawing our moments” both by Taeyeon - “It’s you” by Henry Lau - “Only You” by 4Men - “Love is the Moment” by Changmin (2am) - “crying again” by Moon Myung Jin
Omg!!! What about in the style of blackpink??? We all know that blackpink's production was also on another level,.. i wanna learn their seamless transition and cool drops!!
i could definitely see NCT, Seventeen or Stray Kids doing something like this omg

This would suit NCT so well tbh, reminds me of Make A Wish

Thank you so much!
I'm always shocked at how good KPOP musicians are. Everything from rap to rock. They're incredible!
K-Pop artists really are built different. SOOO good.
I think k pop musicians are really underrated I think

Appreciate that! I'm a big fan of the Y2K bead necklaces and bracelets 😂
Damnnnn dope tutorial, this really sounds like NCT or Stray Kids song, I thought the vocal is from Korean Artists at first, OMG, it sounds like Korean, didn't expect all the vocal were recorded and sang by you🤯🤯
I'm so excited to listen to this on streaming platforms, release it!!🔥🔥🔥
I think the glitches and risers did magic to the song
this goes incredibly hard🔥 my first thought was definitely nct u. I hear at least Yangyang, Xiaojun, Chenle, Taeil and Johnny
the amazing thing is that you cover things like these with great understanding and making brief yet clear explanations
Thank you so much!! We try our best over here!
@@MakePopMusic also giving the best for your subscribers! more power to you Austin!
Reminds me of what Far East Movement were doing with Like A G6!
I can definitely see that!
it actually sounds like a k-pop song...that I'd listen to..! It songs so good!
Dude finally been waiting for this vid for years
We finally did it!!
Dope, the final product came out well! I've been producing kpop/khiphop recently and seeing the music making process of another producer is always cool.
i just gotta say man, the kick you used in the first song was so sweet! love it
1:59 OMG.. IT REMINDS ME OF MY BAG BY GIDLE! FIVE RED DIAMONDS IN MY BAGG
thank you a lot. also, i would be so grateful if you could please make tutorial of K-pop girlgroup bubblegum pop, songs like The Feels, Knock Knock (TWICE), Cupid (Fifty Fifty). you're like a music wizard i respect you so much you have no idea.
Love that you're using more Vital synths these days👌
Once I dove in, I realized Vital is WILDLY good and since it's free, we should definitely be making presets for it so everyone can use them!
I would love to see you make a red velvet style track, especially with their very layered and wide choruses
Ofcourse we need more k-pop music production tutorial from you.....u r really amazing producer....🙏🏻🙏🏻
Might have to circle back and do another!
@@MakePopMusic😀 thankyou so much to taking care of ur subscribers and giving informative things....
My dude I'm drooling over this production! K-Pop production in VERY demanding and you killed it!
Now hold while I watch this video 7 more times :D
This sounds exactly like a song WayV would release... amazing job!
This is pretty dope. Definitely more on the boy group side of things. Even sounds like something Post Malone would have done earlier in his career.
I listened to this at 1.75x and it literally made the song drum and bass
Been waiting for you to make a video of this! Somehow it doesn't seem as intimidating when you went through the process. Thanks Austin for keeping it free for us!!
Thank you! Not gonna lie, I was a LITTLE intimidated when I sat down to make it. Hahahaha
This is a masterpiece. Thank you for this vid!! Your production is top notch!
I APPRECIATE YOU!
@@MakePopMusic can you make full version for this english version? thats lit
fire song!! i watched 0.75 speed cuz normal speed was too fast to understand all of the information
This is nice. I really wish you made a course like this on how to make kpop, please
WOWWWW this is so amazing!!!!!!! I really love your works, Austin!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much! This was my first time really trying K Pop so I was stoked with how it came out!
@@MakePopMusic my fave guide to KPOP, specially adlibs!
Thanks for another great one man...again you went in depth into EXACTLY what I've been listening do,putting everything under the microscope...
Oh imma need you to pitch this to SM 😭😭😭
Sounds like NCT x Itzy x Stray Kids🔥
Can you teach us how to make a song in the style of New Jeans which is the really popular Kpop gg at the moment, Thanks
LOL You actually did it wow. Next, Jpop?
Please make another tutorial in style of kai from exo

man. you're genius with pop music
This is really amazing man you are so talented I wish I could make stuff like this but I just don’t have the chops.
I love your Kpop tutorial. It is really interesting and helpful.
release this song🥵this is fireee❗
Been waiting SO LONG for this!!! Good stuff Austin
can you do kr&b next? i feel like that would be a very interesting tutorial to follow!
It would be cool to hear ITZY style, or STAYC
Amazing. Thank you
a follow up video with for songs like blue and grey or for youth by bts would be so cool and I also really like the idea to get a Korean vocalist sing the song (but your vocals where great though)
THE BEST teacher

I appreciate you! It’s always me, Austin, replying 😁
You knocked it out of the park with this one. Would love more
This is so NCT-coded!!!
You should make a video where you predict the sound of The Weeknd's next album. You got clues from his last albums + who he's working with right now (OPN & Metro and Mike Dean mostly)
I think more 80s vibes but even more soundscapey and unstructured.
Thank you for the video! Just struggling with making the pre-chrorus for a k-pop style track and here we go the tutorial!
Good luck! That is the hardest part to me
This was such an inspiration. I would love to see more of this genre. I always wanted to see videos like this and to see you try at this was amazing.

You are a great producer, greetings from the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴
huh i thought Bam Margera started a producer youtube channel
this needs to be released
Yeah I would love if you make one video showing that happy k-pop style that most big girl groups (like twice,snsd,I.O.I,etc) use at the beginning of their career while the girls are still young, the song very very very by I.O.I is a perfect example and it would be cool too if do another one based on those j-pop songs like PONPONPON by Kyary Pamyu, it's a different type of happy songs.
Oh its coming!!
I heard Taeyong, Mark, Johnny and Ten in this song.
Ugh love it
Hey man I'm a big fan of your work! I've been waiting for a Kpop tutorial! Plus, Im definitely checking out your vital pack!
Appreciate that!!!
This is so good, your channel is like gold dust! This song sounds amazing.
The video shows a very nice process!
I would like to hear more details about the arrangement of this song, is there a full length 2mix and paradata?
Thank you for this video. Very inspiring.
This is a home run... nailed it!
Really good idea, I'm excited to try it out!
wow! Thank you so much for this 💛
I'm so jelly 😢😮
OOUUUUHHHHKAAYYYY I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOR A YEAR. LITERALLY!
SAME
We finally did it for you!
Really nailed this
한국의K-POP을 다루니 반갑군요 고마워요 AUSTIN~ 💜
This reminds me of Zoom by Jessi, I assume.
good , what I was looking for.
Love it! Would definitely love to see a video on how to make a twice or red velvet song!

Amazing. Also, love the smiling basketball in the back
From Market! They have a ton of them!
Really good vid!
Can you make a refresh vid on the ear candy/transitions for modern pop songs
Thanks boss!
Bro you are amazing ⚡️
With so many different instruments, how do you make sure there’s timbre cohesion?
This is Giving SVT Vibes
