    Syncopated layers are so underrated in production/songwriting. Bravo with the Wildly Vibey patch making it more felt than heard to support the rest of the song! Nice work, my guy.

    I think one of the most important parts you discussed was the clave. It’s the rhythmic center & literally makes all the development so natural. Thanks for putting in the real effort.

  • @iamfemo
    @iamfemo Рік тому +3

    Thanks for this video. I think one thing to actually note about Afrobeats is the 3-2 clave. There is always a musical element (not always the drums but mostly some percussive sound) that has this beat.
    Without it, it sounds like Dancehall music than it sounds like Afrobeats.
    and finally, it's not always instrumentally heavy too as it relies more on vocal gimmicks than it does instrumental ones.

    C'mon Austin, this is fire!
    Afrobeat (Naija Beat) is danceable
    Afroswing (which you just produced) is sexy and hot
    AfroPiano (Afrobeats + Amapiano) [trending currently] is groovy, hybrid and can unite a lot of races because of the blend between many genres.
    There are more categories, but those 3 are the most famous.
    A lot of black guys teach garbage in their Afrobeat tutorials. You nailed yours. The preview in the begining of your videos makes the difference because you show the final product so people can make up their mind on whether or not they found what they were searching for. In other guys videos, you will watch 10 to 20 minutes, hoping for a good result at the end, but they just end up creating unfinished sounding 16 bars loops. Therefore, if you release more tutorials, you can overtake them and be well referenced on UA-cam in the "Afrobeat Tutorial" field.
    Well done! Much Love From The Congo!
