Thanks, but I'm actually basing a song for a metal trio on these ideas. :) All the percussion will be played by a single drummer so I have to remove for example any hi-hat 16ths that coincide with the syncopated toms. The bass does a lot of octave jumps, slides and on certain parts, a 6/8 polymeter (like in your video). The guitar gets a one-note 5/4 polymeter (Ok, technically a 10/16) and some breaks where the drums keep the pulse on the kick drum or hi-hat.
Let’s not forget Phat Ass Drop (1 and 2) from 10y ago: ua-cam.com/video/xM16nr7VJ0Q/v-deo.html But yes, this Techno version reached my soul, we need more 🔥
@@joaobrinca1552 he's referring to the video as a whole...it takes years of music and video production knowledge to create a video like this. There is no doubt that it's impressive. Instead of seeing the obvious, your brain perceived it as a moment for you to try to insult someone you don't even know who was trying to give the video creator a compliment...you have some personality issues my friend.
I've been watching music theory videos for like, 3 years at this point, and this is the most efficient I've seen. Artful, yet straight to the point and very informative.
Most of this isn't necessarily "music theory." It's more about nailing the style, which has little to do with music theory. Especially in techno. This entire track basically sticks to the root, so basically nothing happens in a "music theory" sense.
@@renaminginprogress6903techno is not about super high end tension drops. Its about a progression and about the groove which seems the same in every song but is always different and pulls you in the trance
@@DelFlo "There isn't supposed be a drop", then proceeds to use highpass and horrible flanger filters to create tension and then release (drop) the kick again. Are you sure technoheads aren't the ignorant ones?
This is actually a really educational and stylish way to look at techno & it definitely helped me better understand certain terminologies and jargon surrounding the genre/related genres. It's also horrifying and I'll never sleep again in my life, but you win some you lose some
What I find beautiful about these "rules" is that they describe that techno is not even necessarily electronic music. Quite a few artists have demonstrated that if you apply the same rules regarding exploration of timbre and rhythm to analog instruments (kitchenware, symphony orchestras, and everything in between), you achieve a recognizable techno sound all the same.
There's just something about watching your videos that makes me wanna open my DAW, even after I've been feeling uninspired for months, even when I don't feel like I know what I want to make. You're truly inspiring
It's okay. The explanation is straight and simple, yes, the music is also straight and simple and lacks musicality, creativity, personality... Techno can have all that.
@@joaobrinca1552 Como que vc passa o dia todo no UA-cam trollando vídeo gringo and your English is this shitty? No autocorrect on your android burner? Come on man, the first rule of embarrassing someone else is not to embarrass yourself while doing it... You make me feel sad for you when you show how vulnerable and naive you are!
The entire track is fantastic, from idea to execution, but the best part of this for me was when you say "Fill up the lows" and that rumble kicks in. Instantly took me from listening in my kitchen on headphones during the day to midnight at a dark warehouse with haze and lasers. 10/10.
This was actually amazing dude. When you raised the tension it got tense, and when you released it I actually felt calmer and the fact you were explaining through it didn't make it any less effective... That's a real skill you got there.
Please make more of these, but with different electronic genres. This has really taught me the fundamentals and that its actually not as complicated as all the others "tutorials" make it seem 😁
I would say that the field of music instruction videos this one is not only the most creative and most accessible I have ever seen it also conveys more vital information about the art of music composition in five minutes than most could in five hours. 11/10.
For the past 2 weeks, this song/vid has been on my feed every day. But now I'm glad I decided to check it out, and I definitely did not expect that ending
These style of videos are way more engaging and informative, having a demo song playing in the background during the tutorial then showing in real time how adding different elements changes the flow and feel of the song is next level
Brilliant! i hope there is more coming :). it makes you aware of what is going on in the song which things you could have missed if you just listened the final product. Such a vibe
That's a dream knowledge pack, man! Condensing information into such accessible formulas is a very important task. This opens whole new worlds for those, who are just starting to play their grooves. It's such a vast territory to explore really. Every new idea can have a proper place there. Thanks for the performance! 🙏
this is remarkable! i didnt expect anything specific when i clicked on this and i am absolutely delighted with what it turned out to be, bc it is splendid.

Ok, i understand why my friends thinks that I'm a psychopath.
They're not real

wtf did I just watch and when are you posting the next one?
I love how the 'drop' in techno is basically squeeze a highpass filter and then go back to normal
dont tell anyone tho it'll kill the industry.
@@renaminginprogress6903techno is not about super high end tension drops. Its about a progression and about the groove which seems the same in every song but is always different and pulls you in the trance
yup, 1:01
There isn't supposed to be a 'drop' in techno, the commercial industry added that to make it more appealing to large and ignorant crowds.
@@DelFlo "There isn't supposed be a drop", then proceeds to use highpass and horrible flanger filters to create tension and then release (drop) the kick again. Are you sure technoheads aren't the ignorant ones?
this summarises like 10+ hours worth of music tutorials and somehow teaches it better while also being a bop
Even as a metalhead, I could understand this lecture on a personal level. Well done, and thank you algorythm.
You can listen both, i listen techno and metal😂
thats why industrial metal exists
This is probably a good techno comparison to~/ version of~ "metal by numbers"
Why do metalheads always love telling other people that they’re metalheads? like ok bro
@@Eeter26 Did I mention that I'm a metalhead? In case it somehow went under during the whole build-up of context: I'm a metalhead.
Finally somebody using the term Techno for what indeed is techno.

Woah.
Never thought that I would see you in the comment section of a video like this, but here we are!

The entire track is fantastic, from idea to execution, but the best part of this for me was when you say "Fill up the lows" and that rumble kicks in. Instantly took me from listening in my kitchen on headphones during the day to midnight at a dark warehouse with haze and lasers. 10/10.
now i finally know why i love techno for 30 years.
Some say "techno is simple" - true - "simply brilliant".
like to do more like this. I love it😇
This was actually amazing dude. When you raised the tension it got tense, and when you released it I actually felt calmer and the fact you were explaining through it didn't make it any less effective... That's a real skill you got there.

1:11 if the voice had said "hey apple" at this moment, my soul would have left my body.
Whenever someone says techno is just noise, I'll send them this video
This track is a real tongue twister...
BEST THING I'VE EXPERIENCED TODAY.
* this is physical music* is such an accurate description
I would say that the field of music instruction videos this one is not only the most creative and most accessible I have ever seen it also conveys more vital information about the art of music composition in five minutes than most could in five hours. 11/10.
That’s a bit of a stretch isn’t it? I don’t even know much about techno but I guarantee you I could teach you more than this if you gave me five hours
This is such a well produced video, great work brother
This was just outstandingly catchy, educational and well visualised! Great job, Oscar!
this is so perfect, love the cheeky vocals in techno this is so fun
i used to dj 7 years ago and was really into techno, and the things you explained were the reason i loved it so much!!
what a great video, thank you
2:00 goes soo harrrd
Definitely did not expect to see this. Well done!
