Hey guys, thanks so much for your immense support for this video! In the last few weeks views and fun comments/questions has skyrocketed! I realised I forgot to include a link to my Patreon - so if you'd like me to make more videos like this, maybe consider supporting me at Patreon.com/jedmakesnoise Thanks a million! Love your support!
Very groovy, reminded me of Bites album maybe a bit of the choke in there somewhere. My wife and I are starting a music thing so I will definitely show her this video the thing that drove it home for me was how you used a synth and a drum machine and matched them up perfectly in the bass line. NOW I know what equipment to look for. Anyhow, thank you for your video.
I think it was this cold and harsh synth sound that really pulled me in when I first heard something labelled EBM. And it sounded so different from other electronic music I had heard before.
Absolutely fantastic what you did in the most original minimalistic way. I don't know if you know this but you came nearly 100% close to capturing the song called... The bog...( Bigod20).... And as a side note Jean-Luc-de-Meyer of front 242 was one of the writters of the song. I'm 50 years old so I remember the beginning of all EBM..music. and to this day I still dance on the dance floor like a spastic teenager. Lol
51 old man with a teen brain here. What a time to be alive! I will never forget flipping out and completely losing it on the dance floor of Frankfurts legendary techno disco Dorian Gray, while strobes lightened up the thick artificial fog and Aggressiva by 242 started. Also saw Skinny Puppy live in 1988, a life changing experience. EBM and Industrial forever!
@@obiedecker4038 You lucky bastard, Techno Club Dorian Gray was the "source" at that time for electronic music, I envy you! Please, don't take "bastard" seriously, it's Monty Python joke!
@@stumsi No way I’m taking it seriously. ☺️ I do feel blessed I was young at this time. No cell phones, no web, just us, record stores and night clubs.
I made this style since 2 years and THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I SEE A TUTORIAL about this style :'( cause it's took me 2 years to realize we called this "EBM" sad.
I rarely add comments, but this was cool to watch. I've been making EBM/electronic music the same way for a couple of years, nice to see someone actually explain and jam with analog instruments instead of watching someone fiddle about with VSTs for ten minutes.
Just joined your channel. I’m new to EBM and love it. It isn’t mainstream or spoken about much so I didn’t know about it. Your tutorial was great! I usually play and performed death or slam metal but now I’ve gotten help making this type of music. I hope to see more of your videos!
Very Front 242 sounding at first but then it becomes that really cool vampire lounge EBM sounding. I love it! I've been listening and playing Industrial and experimental electronic music since around 1985. I bought Skinny Puppy's first album Remission and was hooked immediately. It's really cool to see younger people getting into it and keeping it alive.
Fantastic explanation and great beat. EBM is all about snappy envelopes and fat analog tones. SH-101 and sequential Pro one are my top favorites. Drums; the kawai R100, Yamaha RX series are great. Great video!!
SKINNY PUPPY! My fav band back in my day growing up in Vancouver in 80/90s hanging around Granville Street, going to Lovafair. Go the "Texture" and I-Braineater art and clothing.
@@jeddyeval Youre making it like youre done it for years. Really well done! Maybe youre a teacher or consult in the real life. If not you have talent to that area I think!
When I bought the A4mk2 I was a bit disappointed in it as a synth but then realised its potential as a drum machine and cv/midi sequencer and that alone made it a keeper, in fact I go to it for drums more than my Analog Rytm
Honestly by far the best EBM tutorial ever... One question... I hear that clap sound In the drum track 4 often but have no idea how yiu get that style of clap or how to even describe it to search for
Excellent demo (!) Personally I think Skinny Puppy is not EBM and gets more familiar with the early sounds of Dark Electro. I also want to add the importance of bands like DAF who experimented with the sound of punk towards electronic music and The Klinik who immersed themselves in the raw sounds of electro-industrial. Greetings from Bolivia (!)
Yes others have pointed out that I’ve got that part wrong, I must have misread a source when researching for this video. I agree, I very much enjoy DAF also
New sub here, Jed. I like your content. Thanks for 5his particular video. I'm 42 and have a home studio and have had many iterations of said studio. But the last decade or so, I have forgotten why I started making music. This little tune helped me to remember why. So, thank you, friend.
I was searching for Goth Synth jams but found this. Great EBM, I would love to hear this as an entirely full released song with different sections. It would really get a party going.
this is really helpful now I have to get a Roland SH-101 have the Microkorg and Analog 4 but like using my Octatrack for drums since it has 8 tracks and more choices of effects, envelopes and filter choices. I am trying to do this on modular which is a little trickier.
honestly for EBM, you'd be better off with just 4 tracks. keep things simple, and you'll focus more on making those simple things good (: ebm is like punk music, you start overcomplicating it and it loses what makes it so charming
Have you tried using the high-frequency tuned LFO to slightly FM modulate your percussion? It can add a LOT of grit on the Analog Four, and not a lot of people realize that you can do it.
You are not only an excellent superb musician, you are also a great Teacher, speaking in layman terms, explaining things so well. Thank you for this. I mainly play guitar, some piano, and just recently bought the microKorg 37key synth. and am having a blast learning some basic songs like Major Tom by Peter Schilling, while simultaneously playing guitar back, and forth. Hearing the multitude of incredible sounds sparked my interest in your type of keyboard synth led music. Thanks again for showing how exciting, and fun music can be. Now for possibly purchasing that Elektron analog drum machine. My generation is the New Order sound which I still love, and I see the roots. I really love the sounds you got. See? You CAN teach an old Dog new tricks.

Excellent video, but the steps need some clarification for EBM:
Step 1: Lock the target
Step 2: You bait the line
Step 3: Slowly spread the net
haHA!
Yes!!!
Step 4: You catch the man. :-)
These step are only relevent if you have the written in your cells, the marks of a genius
NICE
I see "EBM" and a thumbnail with an A4 and SH101 and I insta-click :D
yep!
SAME
😁😎

Man, I'm so inspired now, wth. Thanks for this awesome, raw take at your process ✋️

Love that track! I got Jean Luc to sign my CD single of The Bog while he was touring with C-Tec in the late 90's

The bog is so good, I love it for a few years before I discovered ebm (:

I can't believe I can watch this stuff on youtube. What a world.

Dont know how i got here, but im sure as hell glad i did! This is such a insightful vid. Thanks man!
242 and EBM being two of my favorite musical things of all time this was an auto watch and auto sub for me

great setup

Had a very lost track from A Split Second vibe to it in parts, great stuff!
Nice. Got me walking around the office like a catwalk
At 10:24 Hit Play .. then = Awesomeness
Omg these drums are amazing!
Killer, killer Track !!!! I hope to hear more soon! Thanks for sharing this with us all!
Quick, catchy and great way to understand the anatomy of an EBM track. Thank you!
Love this! Been thinking of trying to create some EBM next so this was inspirational. Love the synth line variations.
It would be great if you did a video creating a post-punk song from scratch as well!
I've learned a lot just watching this video!
I'm an old bastard and a huge F 242 fan. You nailed the drums. Great job Jed! Thanks
Thanks for making this mate love the dive into an underdiscussed genre
Such a cool track you made, i had no idea what EBM was until i stumbled upon this video
Hi Jed, I love your Jesus and Mary Chain hair!!! 🖤🖤
Very cool stuff JeddyEval // Congrats!
Very Front 242 sounding at first but then it becomes that really cool vampire lounge EBM sounding. I love it!

That is a pretty sick bassline
This video has been very good for my future productions, thank you. 🤜🏻🤛🏻🔥
Fantastic explanation and great beat. EBM is all about snappy envelopes and fat analog tones. SH-101 and sequential Pro one are my top favorites. Drums; the kawai R100, Yamaha RX series are great.
Great video!!
Excellent video!
So nice to watch someone that actually knows what they are doing as opposed to first try on such and such instrument.
Wow the Roland sounds soooooo goood
SKINNY PUPPY! My fav band back in my day growing up in Vancouver in 80/90s hanging around Granville Street, going to Lovafair. Go the "Texture" and I-Braineater art and clothing.
Keep makin noise Jed, lovin it
My biggest take away was when you touch on phrygian scale. My bassline instantly sounded right once I change the key
YES! IM SO GOAD I FOUND THIS
I have never heard of the genre EBM until now. I've been around since the 80's and we had this style down as Belgium New Beat.
Is basically new beat. Is a dancy version of ebm
Body music and new beat are very similar and in some places synonyms for sure :)
New beat is slower. Check early front 242. That is not new beat.
Awesome video. Can you please create a tutorial on how to create Schwefelgelb-like bass? I think they're continuing the EBM legacy these days.
Schwefelgelb are great! They use a waldorf blofeld
Great video! Thanks Jed!
This is definitely inspiring me to create! Thank you!
Skinny Puppy. Hell yeah! Nice jam on here. Kudos!
Yess! Ive done ebm inspired industrial for some years, your video is super cool and entertaining! I enjoyed it a lot!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it. I am quite new to it, not a master at it but I’m discovering so much through making these videos. Thanks so much!
@@jeddyeval Youre making it like youre done it for years. Really well done! Maybe youre a teacher or consult in the real life. If not you have talent to that area I think!
If you already don't know this band,I think you really gonna like it specially their first 3 records.
-Pride & Fall-
Dang, when you started that bass loop for the first time, I literally went “wooooooo!” :) If you make an ebm album, I’d buy it :)
That was incredible ! Thanks
When I bought the A4mk2 I was a bit disappointed in it as a synth but then realised its potential as a drum machine and cv/midi sequencer and that alone made it a keeper, in fact I go to it for drums more than my Analog Rytm
agree well Octatrack is even better! I use Octatrack for drum/samples and A4 for basslines and melodic stabs. Works great.
Das ist wirklich super !! 👍
Great video Jed! Thanks for Uploading.
Nice work. I also have such an old sh 101 synth (the original) and try to get out some nice music out of it.
Honestly by far the best EBM tutorial ever... One question... I hear that clap sound In the drum track 4 often but have no idea how yiu get that style of clap or how to even describe it to search for
This is also a killer song actually.
Id love it if you made the same for darkwave, that would be fanatstic
I appreciate this. The part about the envelopes was really helpful.
Great video! We need more deep dives of genre specific techniques.
Good shit bro! That korg sounded spectacular on top of the elektron an Roland. Great mix of synths. Subbed
I really appreciate the setup walkthrough. I'll definitely be looking out for your videos from now on.
This is great!
It's like you are baking a cake out of black leather and amphetamine.

Nop. They would describe skinny puppy as cyberpunk ,the second wave of industrial music.
@@callactm14 Front Line Assembly might be cyberpunk but I wouldn't call Skinny Puppy that ^-^
@@slowisthenewfast-music i wouldn't either
Well early skinny puppy is technically EBM…
Yes! I discovered EBM in 1988. At that time, a forbidden culture from the hostile west in communist Czechoslovakia :-)
Czech's really know what good music is. A totally different scene over there.

@EBM Amazing video. You're a genius.
Would you mind sharing the Microkorg patch? Sounds wonderful.
Weird comment I know ; but first video I've watched of you & you could rock the bald look. Just trying to make my comment as awkward as possible.
EBM drum is the best drum of Electronic music i
This makes me miss good ole Zoth Ommog
Thanatos my friend ! Gréât !
Nice work
keep it up man, this was good.
Thanks heaps man!!
awesome 🎹
I like your music very much...thanks for sharing :)
This is great!!! Thanx for useful info.
Fantastic !!!
Great to see that this genre gets some love! Are the drums samples (I guess they are)? If so, where did you get the snare?
No, the drums are synthesized. The Analog 4 is a 4 voice Analog synth.
Beautiful hair, man!
I was searching for Goth Synth jams but found this. Great EBM, I would love to hear this as an entirely full released song with different sections. It would really get a party going.
The scale and tone at 11:00 sounds like Circling Overland
Reinds me of 'Nitzer Ebb'
This is pure GOLD. I NEED MOOOOOOORE!!!! 🤣😘
where can i find those kind of drums mate?
in love with the videos
Usefull info here but you forgot something.You really need 2 detuned saw oscillators (or 3 can work too if you wanna go nuts xixi ).
This was insane! I loved it!
fantastic stuff, very informative.
nice !!!!! EBM rules
Super awesome Jed You Rock! ✨ 👍 please make more EBM jams like this! 🎶🔥✨🎶
This is amazing.
This is great! 👍

Also getting some strong New Beat vibes from this. But then again, that was hugely influenced by EBM.
Jed's nice with it...SBN RESONATE
I love this🖤🖤🖤
the sound of belgium
new beat !
Excelent track and tutorial! Also microbrute is excelent for this style
basslines...
Muy buen trabajo!!!!!
Nice vid !!
Damn! I definitely dance to that in the club
Perfection
Have you tried using the high-frequency tuned LFO to slightly FM modulate your percussion? It can add a LOT of grit on the Analog Four, and not a lot of people realize that you can do it.
No I haven’t tried that yet, I saw Cuckoo do that once I think...will try it out in future, thanks!
