you must do make a music theory tutorial too
Thanks for checking the video out. I don't really like to dive too much into music theory when producing. I think it's good to learn theory, but I'm not thinking about any theory or rules when I'm creating because I like to be free to create and express emotion. That's just my personal preference though.
My last reply to your messages never really felt right to me. Though I wasn't intentionally being rude, I still feel that if you requested a music theory tutorial, it was for a reason. So your comment a huge part of why I made this video: ua-cam.com/video/AjSaxe8dmFs/v-deo.htmlsi=jwnLo9g0gsv5GFoL Thank you!

Fam! I appreciate you bro. 🙏🏾🫡
Bro I swear this right here made me feel like I was back in the 90s. I love this sound. You nailed it for real!
I appreciate it Maestro! 🙏🏾🫡
Yessir! Love both! First one reminds me alot of the 90-94 era R&B production, mixed in with your sound and the current R&B bounce. The second beat, IMO, is more closer to the "Melo sound," based on what I've heard from you in past videos. Some of my favorite 90's R&B songs:
Dru Hill - Promise
Aaliyah - One In A Million
Faith Evans - Soon As I Get Home
Mary J. - Not Gon Cry
Tevin Campbell - Can We Talk
Monica - For You, I Will / Angel of Mine
Ginuwine - So Anxious
Tyrese - Sweet Lady
R. Kelly - Down Low (Live To Regret It Mix)
112 - Love You Like I Did
702 - Steelo
SWV - You're Always On My Mind
Jodeci - Feenin
TLC - Diggin On You
Maxwell - Fortunate
I could keep going for days! I got a question - after making beats for all these years, when did you become confident in your "sound?" Was it immediately? One thing I'm trying to do this year is to reach out to more upcoming R&B artists to work with, as i feel I've gotten to a point where I'm comfortable in my "sound," but I still get insecure at times. Would love to get your 2c on it here, or perhaps in a future video.
Thanks bro. I really appreciate it. 🙏🏾 And that's a great list. I think I'm going to make a playlist from these comments lol.
Honestly, I'm always trying to move forward with my sound, so I can never be comfortable and feel that I've "gotten there". But what's helped me to gain confidence in my music over the years has been a few things: working with artists and seeing the looks on their faces when their songs are played back, validation from those I look up to, and then one that's especially important - comments like the one you just made. But the common denominator in all of these things is putting the music out there to see what kind of response it gets. I've heard your music and I think you should most definitely be working with artists. (You have what it takes bro. 💯) I think it would be a great idea to find 1 or 2 local artists you really believe in (and whose styles fit yours) and build with them. Putting whole albums together with indie artists has been one of the best ways for me to sharpen my skills while learning to be well-rounded. Thanks again bro. I Definitely think that question would be a good idea for a video. 🙏🏾🫡
I love when you added the strings. Great music production video!🎶🎼🎵🎼🎵
I appreciate it bro! 🙏🏾✊🏾
You got me searchin my V Collection Library Melo! Love these sounds 🔥
Thanks bro! Yeah man...I'm STILL digging through these sounds. Glad you enjoyed it. 🙏🏾✊🏾
70s, 80s, and 90s are the real Rnb years. I'm trying to keep it alive too.
Yeah bro. I'd personally add the early 00s to that too. Keep pushing bro. ✊🏾
Just got so INSPIRED at 4am this morning I had to subscribe don't stop the content. Thank you I gave you a sub!
I appreciate it bro! Glad you enjoyed it. Keep pushing! 🙏🏽✊🏽
Melo, I love what you do! In a couple of months I’m going to hit you up and ask if you could produce a song for my wife. She can sing and is anointed but man waiting 20 years for me to get good enough to produce a song may have her wait until our next 20 years’ anniversary. 😢
I appreciate it bro! Yeah man let me know...Either we can co-produce, I'll just produce if you want me to. Thanks for checking it out and I'm looking forward to hearing from you. 🙏🏾✊🏾
You keep that 90's R&B sound alive brother, for real! ✊🏼💫
The melodies of those beats are simply beautiful... especially the second beat is amazing.
Some of my absolute favourite 90's R&B songs are...
Joe - All The Things (Your Man Won't Do)
Joe - Good Girls
Jagged Edge - He Can't Love U
Jon B. - Someone to Love
Boyz II Men - On Bended Knee
I appreciate it bro! 🙏🏾✊🏾 That means a lot because I really enjoy your music as well. And those are some really good ones (90s songs). I wouldn't even know where to start naming mine lol. Thanks for the feedback bro!
Bro! I can here that Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis vibe all in here bro! Even Guy too.........Shessh! Sorry Im just seeing this........playing catch up! Blessings!
I appreciate it my brother! That's definitely an honor. Man you know I understand. I have to catch up too lol. Blessings to you and your family bro. 🙏🏽✊🏽
Straight up inspiration, thank you for this!
Thanks fam! I'm glad I was able to give a little inspiration. 🙏🏾✊🏾
Real talent. Salute!
I appreciate it my brother. Glad you enjoyed it. 🙏🏽✊🏽
You have really really great content keep it up sir loved it 👏❤
I appreciate that bro. I'm glad you enjoyed it. 🙏🏾✊🏾
Wow man. I love this.
Thanks bro! I thought about you when I found that EP patch. 🙏🏾🫡
Yeah it sounded just like the EP I would have used too. I just love stacking them and making them sound smooth and warm al together. I just watched the second beat, and i just HAD to get out my little keyboard, load up my fav lead sound, and match the audio level and JAM!!!! The second beat truly thundered into my soul man!
@@JSoulKeys Yeah bro...I was definitely wanting to stack that EP with something a little sweeter to make it smoother. I'm glad you enjoyed it bro! ✊🏽
@@melotheproducer do you run your mixes through any external hardware such as compressors, master eq modules etc?
@@JSoulKeys I do run my final masters through external hardware. but I usually don't take the time to do so with most of my instrumentals. I usually just process those in the box.
so crazy R&B art beat
I appreciate it fam! 🙏🏾✊🏾
Quality
Thanks bro. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾✊🏾
#Salute...👑✨👑
Thanks bro. Salute. 🙏🏽✊🏽
yessir this that Devante swing ! just subbed to you 💯💯
I appreciate it bro. Yeah man...I don't think R&B would be what it is today without Devante's contribution. Welcome to the channel my brother! 🙏🏾✊🏾
@@melotheproducer forsure bro I was late on jodeci, cus I’m only 23, but when I got enlightened….man 😂
90s Magic
I appreciate it bro. 🙏🏽✊🏽
You the truth🔥🔥 hopefully I could work with you one day. How do you get your sounds in Serum?? Is there a link to buy?
awesome stuf
I appreciate it bro. 🙏🏾✊🏾
Definitely a 90’s beat with that reverse snare
I HAD to do it bro lol.
@@melotheproducer love the reverse snare
@@PharaohLawLess1 I appreciate it bro. 🙏🏾 I remember loving that sound growing up listening to R&B.
65 I'm@@PharaohLawLess1
Nice prod
Thanks fam.🙏🏾✊🏾
You are the master of wheels. I mean Pitch & Modulation !
I appreciate it bro! 😂🙏🏽✊🏽
Great work, I really loved the 2nd one. Unsolicited advice, you alternate a bar with snare hits on beat 2 and 4 with a bar with hits on beat 2 and a syncopated 4. I keep wanting to hear the snare hits on 2 and 4 repeated and then broken up later with the syncopated bar. Don't know if that makes sense, but it does in my head, LOL. Regardless, you know I love your work!
Thanks bro! And your advice is always welcome and appreciated. Listening back, that definitely makes sense. Thanks for coming through and supporting as always my brother! 🙏🏽✊🏽
🔥🔥🔥🔥 Brother ❤❤❤❤
My brother - I appreciate it! 💙💙💙🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
@@melotheproducer you welcome brother 🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏
I even go with a verse change to, or what some people would like to say bridge
Amazing!! What was that synth bass you used on the second beat?
Thanks bro!! I'm going to pull that session up and let you know asap. 🙏🏾✊🏾
@@melotheproducer bet thanks!
may i ask what you use to record from multiple angles?
I'm using OBS to record and Premiere Pro to edit.
Weakness : Too talented
Thanks bro! 🫡✊🏾
Which preset are you using in Serum?
I'm not sure what the original name was because I renamed it after I tweaked it.
Anita Baker Sweet Love
In my top 10 favorite R&B songs of all time.
i’m here to make tony shhnow and 10kdunkin type beats 😭
Mint condition 1 million strong
Legendary.
I'll make something raw to this!
Thanks bro. Someone already wrote to this one though.
Boyz II Men
Living legends.
U still trying to work?
What do you have in mind?
bro talking like an NPC lol
Come to think of it, I just might be. 😉
70s and 80s RnB is better than 90s RnB.
I love 70s and 80s R&B too. I also think strawberry ice cream is better than chocolate lol.
You don't believe that
@@TCfromSC yes I do. 90s RnB is mostly sampled from the 70s and 80s. Do your research. I like what’s original.
@@peachespointofview Ok I know this comment wasn't for me, but can you give me an example of some of your favorite 70s and 80s R&B? I'm going to make a video from those eras and would love your opinion regarding songs.
@@melotheproducer from the 80s Rose Royce, Atlantic Star, Skyy…mostly bands. And of course Whitney Houston’s earlier music. From the 70s the music from blaxploitation films…Willie Hutch “The Mack”, mostly 70s RnB and soul music.
