More fitting title would be " TOP 50 LIFE CHANGING HACKS NO ONE IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY WANTS YOU TO KNOW ABOUT (WhAtCh BeFoRe tHiS GeTs DELETED) Jokes aside, thanks Jonas for the ever helping videos you're spoiling us with every week! Can't even describe how incredibly helpful they've been!🔥❤️
Rellim I’ve never used cakewalk before... but there should be an add or file button that can get you to add the folder. If not, you should be able to drag samples (not the whole folder) into the playlist of your daw
Another couple quick tips for producers and musicians: 1) Listen to your music on multiple platforms. Don't just listen to your music on 1 device/platform. These days it's really easy to use USB devices to listen to music on everything from cell phones to car stereos. Listen to your mix on everything available to you(or your friends.. yes commandeer the stereo in their car next time you go somewhere with them!). 2) Learn to master your audio! It takes some time and practice but it's well worth the time and effort to have tracks that you've already mastered yourself hit a mastering engineer's office. It'll mean less time going back to the mix to fix things later! 3) Listen to your mix/song on Mono. With all the delays, reverb, offsets, panning, and compression these days it can be hard to tell how your mix is filling the audio spectrum. The best way to see how well a mix fills up the spectrum, is to set the audio to mono to get a better idea of how the different effects and instruments fill the space. This can help point out areas where it's too crowded or lacking in the spectrum that an analyzer can't really portray even with it's fancy graphics.
Liked before it even started. Btw. That ritual remix is straight up fire. My personal favorite out of all. The flute nailed it. I hope you will show us how it was done, as you did with other songs. Cheers from Russia
It is clear you put a lot of effort into having high production values in your videos, and boy does it pay off! Thank you for the consistently fantastic quality and excellent tutorial!
I came back after 3 years to check your old videos because im stuck in music production and weird is i finally understand everysingle bit of what you talk about production ,mixing, soundesign etc and its so weird .....then i am thinking i did learn bunch of shit and that is huge progrees...... just need inspiration now and here i am to gather some...thank you fella
Unbelievable. I cannot comprehend how you keep up with all of the work you do for the edm community. Literally an angel for all aspiring producers. Thank you
Jonas that insane I follow u when u have less than 5K followers and now u have 50K wp bro u deserve it !! Ps : Ritual remix sound very super dope !! 🔥🔥
These tips are perfect. I'm a hip rop/rap producer but I have dance and rock influences. It's always useful to get knowledge from outside my area of producing in order to 'create the niche' you mentioned!
One of best Tips Tutorials ever... Maybe this are tips for electronic music, but I love how this video spends just a few seconds to explain each tip (Usually every youtuber in the world expends as much time as they can (as UA-cam seems to pay more if videos are longer I guess XD ) Great Job !
This is a very good video to watch every couple to few months, I find. The reason is that sometimes things make sense, but you're not really in a position to receive and assimilate some important things. You need to be ready to "get it." This video gives you a quick way to see if there is something you're ready for! I remember the first time I watched this: I nodded my head, "uh huh, I get it, that makes sense" to every tip, but I didn't really "get" (as in able to really make use of) the vast majority of them. Now, I sometimes think "oh, I do that now, I really get it." But most of these tips I'm still working on! Thanks for a great, useful video.
This video is perfect to watch every time you‘re working on a project, to get inspired and dont forget those great tips and tricks (what happens often to me, after a while)...
if you search "walking in tokyo" on youtube you will find a guy walking in tokyo (ik what a surprise) but with really nice quality in terms of sounds i love it for my backrounds
these tips are G O L D E N! pretty much sums up everything you're gonna need if you're starting off music production. will save beginners a lot of time and learn from mistakes that he's made learning/making music over the years.
OH MY GOD!!! I'm starting to learn music production and watching videos. When you said strangers do my mind was blown. I first heard that song on the channel xKito Music back in 2018, they upload new music and I've always loved that song it's been in all of my playlists and I've always thought it was so beautiful and that the drop was so nice and satisfying and it's just a really good thing but I never connected the fact that YOU made that song and that you make tutorials!!!!! You are such an inspiration and I am so grateful for your videos. I will remember your name for sure now hahaha I look forward to hearing your music.
Also he teaches lessons that " in my opinion " coasts hundreds dollar ..now days a few artists like jonas who explain their song tracks ...every details ...🙂

Was a bit of work, but I thought this would help a lot of people ✌️
Thanks a lot, it definitely helped me haha
Wow thankyou!!!
damn
Wow... 😮
👊🏻🔥
Another tip: title and colour EVERYTHING
Who noticed the doggo on the sofa? Cuuutiee ❤️
He sleep!
Yeah
Illumi music you are litterally in every comment section of musical videos. I see you everywhere.
He is learning how to make music
I noticed. I dont think I'm very cute but thanks. Lmao
Your distortion sounds so smooth.
When I add distortion, it sounds like 100 crows being killed at the same time
Use less. Routing to a different track, put dist there, then starting from 0 increase volume until it sounds ok.
Your Ritual remix is INSANE man, holy crap. Hits like a truck.
Thankyou bro
The best in my opinion

Hahahhaha I considered it !! and thankyou man means the world to hear
JONAS ADEN , best discovery of the year for me, sincerely!!

I was thinking the same today after I listened to his new remix of Tiësto - Ritual
Totally
Same
Watch at 0.75x for better understanding !
Did anybody noticed that cute dog sleeping in the background
I dId 🐶 ♥
It's in the snowball position 😃😃
@@riktascale4 he indeed has a cute dog
Na I didn't notice. Really??
Yesss the doggo
When u said ‘download my sample packs’ I was just like great... self promo...
*But then I heard free so imma go get them*
im using cakewalk to produce and when i got to use them theyre never there.. Any help?
Rellim I’ve never used cakewalk before... but there should be an add or file button that can get you to add the folder. If not, you should be able to drag samples (not the whole folder) into the playlist of your daw
Rellim there’s probably a tutorial on UA-cam for it
RAE ive tried everything 😂
What daw does everyone else use?

OK this video is gonna be sick
I can see you were able to pick up a keyboard and mouse from Area 51
It's the Logitech ergonomic keyboard and the Unker vertical mouse
Treex Records UA-cam for artist
Treex Records you need release at least 3 songs via a distributor ( if I remember well) google it and see UA-cam faq for more precisely
Treex Records its an Official artist page on UA-cam, distribute your songs and you’ll receive one ☝️
The bounce samples of your track tip is huge. It saves so much time for future tracks and you develop your own signature sound.
It is clear you put a lot of effort into having high production values in your videos, and boy does it pay off! Thank you for the consistently fantastic quality and excellent tutorial!
thank you for watching ❤️
shoutout to your dog coming in at tip 3, and then just completely minding his own business sleeping throughout the whole video

Yo that's crazy I do electronic and rock with hip hop/rap influences

"Show it to your cat, dog, and goldfish... oh, yeah, and your family, as an afterthought." 😂
Just barely starting the video, and I already wanna say thank you for putting this video together 🔥
I watched one of your old videos recently and realized now how much more comfortable you’ve become in front of the camera
No one:
Jonas: I'll shut up now
Me: plz no I want to hear you :(
Good thing he never does it
Keep up the good work!
Omg! Your dog is so precious. My heart skipped a beat when I noticed him.
This is a very good video to watch every couple to few months, I find.

My signature thing is a heavy tom fill before the drop.
Jonas, Ritual is the best song you've ever made, Congratulation! 🔥
I like how some of the tips are like “add distortion” “do bitcrushing”, most of these are gold, a couple are kind of obvious
This video is perfect to watch every time you‘re working on a project, to get inspired and dont forget those great tips and tricks (what happens often to me, after a while)...
10:15 - I felt that
Jonas Aden never shuts up when he says he will.
pathological liar

Live forever Jonas! Your tips are awesome!
4:50 - Look at how the dog is staring at us :O xD
Love these comprehensive in-depth videos THANKS Jonas !

I always thought you said "oh when I met you" in the Strangers Do drop.
With dope music and videos like this Jonas went from being a just some random producer to my favourite producer
I've heard about almost all these tricks before, but thanks for combining it in one video. I'm gonna watch it every time I stuck.
46: pancake - I haven't not used it on a track since finding it!

i love how fast and concise this video is
If you take a closer look at that paper jonas holds you can see one of the tips is Random stuff. LoL
I was like “where is this guy going with 2 strings guitar” and then it falls apart 😂
I learnt more in this one video than in 8 years of surfing the internet. Cowbells. I would have never even thought of that
I think the BOX thing you mentioned is the best tip I ever heard yet
