Amazing motivation. Like, if u dont finish 90% of your songs.
I'm Not An Expert But I've Made 2 Beats Out Of Loop And Made It Into A Song Using My Phone.
I literally searched "how to get unstuck making loops" lol I get a good loop and then run face first into a wall. But only when I'm actually on Logic. If I'm listening to music for inspiration I can plan out everything I want to do in my own work, until I sit down to put anything together
90%? Those are rookie numbers, I dont finnish 98% 🤠🔫
Make that 99%

The love you have for music is contagious. Thank you for sharing that passion with the world Alex!
Absolutely!!!! Whenever he says that it bounces or slaps or whenever he gestures with his hands, you can just *FEEL* his passion!!
That transition into the drop was smooth
You’re a great teacher as well as producer, your passion and teaching style is next level dude
Every new video is a splash of inspiration every time
Great stuff Alex! Always love the energy you bring to your vids
I love how this dude gets to the point.
So happy I've found your channel, I've never watched such interesting music production content, it's so inspiring
It's incredible how simple you make automation look and feel as you teach... makes me realize I've been definitely underutilizing that in my tracks. Thanks Alex!
I’m trying to start a track today so I really appreciate this 🎉 of course I’ve watched tons of videos on this topic but a refreshing video on a good topic is a good motivation on get started today!
I love your good vibes, you have amazing videos and you make it super easy for everyone to understand. ^_^
Literally insane I love it
I don't make dance music but i do make instrumental music and arrangement has always been the number one thing holding me back - this is by far the most clear and useful tutorial on arrangement ive seen. Thank you so much, and love the passion! Just subscribed.
Watching this process is so fun, I love these videos
Nice work man your passion shows. I like what you did with your arrangement choices they sound good like they just sit right.
Best tutorial I've seen so far this is so incredibly helpful for complete beginners in music production like me!! Thank you. Other youtubers I see are not getting as in depth and its often more for advanced creators so this is helpful.
Wow, this is amazing to see every session from you related to production, pls make another video on balancing instruments or mixing.
I love this dude
Nice young man.. You have extremely well put together tracks.. Outstanding work bro..
one of the only guys on YT i actually learn from. also glad you're using ableton now. would love an in depth video on bass, from creating/selecting the right sounds to processing and glueing it in with rest of track. that's where i'm getting stuck rn. thanks!
So good, love your creation and so helpful creatively.
I always learn something new from your videos, and I've got to say, whenever I go apply it to my music, I react similar to how you do to yours. I watch you half for your knowledge and half for how much you enjoy crafting good-sounding music. Keep it up!
This was so informative! Thank you, will definitely use these tips in my next track :D
another great video! thank you for sharing your good work and advice
Thank you! Been having trouble with this for some time now!
awesome video! I love how you have a clear overwiew about this! thats a newfound clarity of arranging for me, also thats a solid track you wrote right there =)
Incredible 👏👏
Don't have this particular program but this was truly helpful regardless. Thank you so much from all of us out here!! Absolutely awesome video my man!
By far the best tutorial in this category. Plus the song rocks. I would like to sign up with the edm boot camp please 🙏
chapter in a book metaphor was eliteeeee
You make great videos my guy. Whenever I see you made something new, I tune in just because the way you are (on cam) is so comforting. :)
May the algorythm god be gracious to thee!
I got distracted part way through, lost my place so started again - worth it
Very cool workflow. Super idea.
Awesome walkthrough
You rock ! Very good instructive and funny teacher ! Love the dancing .
Never thought about dropping a vocal sample into Pigments to make a drone... that is really cool! Thanks Alex
Mann this is what I was looking for I could not find anyone to actually show how to extend the music I’m glad I’m motivated to try this tonight on Logic Pro
Definitely subscribed 🤟🏽
I actually really liked the way you've done the drums here. Could you do a breakdown video on them?
Dope pro producer. Massive huge saucepans.
dude you are sick! thx
Holy shit this was insanely helpful!! Thanks a lot!
this was a great video, as a beginner you gave a very simple, easy to understand explanation of how to break out of an 8 bar loop
Can I hear the full song?
This was gold! thank you. Did you finish the song, would really love to hear it.
your headphones are massive!
Was about to say the same, wtf are they?!
Frying pans😂
Dude! Every video of yours I watch gives me a new idea! Man...
Sikk video dude, that looked so easy for you to create, 👏👏
That was very helpful. One has to first create the tools and then bring them all together.
I love the way you explain things. Great tutorial, thanks!
I wish we could have heard the entire track though haha, it sounded solid
Ur amazing alex 🎉
Amazing! Thank you
the drop hits hard!
Nice tune!
Alex you are the best
There's two people on whole youtube who get most of EDM fundamental tutorials right One is Alex Rome and other is Big Z
Track is quality!! if not released then you need to get on that bro love the vibe 👌
Awesome ❤️
Nice content, thx.
That drop was fucking SMOOTH
Good stuff great tutorial
Yeah this is hot, well done bro 👍😊
Very useful tips! For me personally it's after this part I get stuck with 99% of my songs. How to keep the track interesting enough the whole time. Which methods / elements, melody variation to add an interesting twist to surprise the listener etc.. Very nice track so far!
Nice!!!
I love this story too
Holly shit man, you change my mind with this automation utilizing EQ. I use automation but never thought like this.
Same yeah
love u brother ...😍
4:18 amazing genius honestly
Slightly weird look, enthusiastic, emotional about the thing he does and that is how to tell that you found a good blogger to binge watch.
I want this song now
I want to here the full song so bad it's so good i wish he could release it
damn, the drop though
Always appreciate the videos. Do you by chance have a video on building a bit complex drum patterns ?
I feel I struggle with percussion and the building blocks of what makes a good solid beat. Thanks again!
Not Alex, but I recommend watching videos of drummers and drum covers to see how drummers add flavor and feel. They’ve already figured it out for us, go steal their shit
This is pretty cool. Use sounds to tell a story.
Nicely arranged, Ableton all the way 👍🏼
Wish you would play the whole track though.
Where can I listen to the full song dude it's so awesome ❤❤
Я с английским не в ладах, но этот дядя на практике так хорошо объясняет, что его и не обязательно знать. Спасибо большое за видосы ❤
Is there a full version of this song? I was vibing hardcore to that!
Dammm good 🔥🔥
Game over.
after opening this video in new tab, then i just go back to my DAW without even watching this
it works guys 🤣
actually do something (anything) to your loop works better than listening to it over and over
4:19 I love it!
Vibes
Thanks for getting my ass back on track💯
❤❤❤
Awwweeesoommee
Really cool tips and track Alex...thank you for sharing your approach. Say, what DAW are you using?
Ableton live 11
Do release music? I love this track
Dear sir I am from India from Delhi
I love the little dance 7:40
F*ing genius 🗿🙀
I get the process but I get the feeling that even tho the loop is unstuck, now the whole song is stuck inside one movement
Yuh
Fred again Vibe 😸
is this on spotify Alex?
Your tutorial is easy and unique also,
and i am your subsriber now
i like your tutorial so much so csn you please make a bollywood song remake or remix any bollywood song for me please sir humble request sir😢
hard beat
When ordering stuff in your shop is it normal to reive nothing but a receipt and not beeing delievered for hours nor getting answers on support requests?
I have a question with those four elements
How do I know what to start first and what comes second and what comes third is there a list structure I can follow ????????
I would love to try most of the things you teach but I'm using mobile phone to learn, and many the things you teach r not present in d mobile
Does someone know what DAW is he using? Good vibes
How do you step up your production arranging a track by using different elements from the drop? As in songs that use completely different sounds from the build and the drop?
