Hey Everyone! Thanks for all the support on this video! I have made a follow up video (A second How to make a J-Pop song). If you enjoyed this video, you might want to check out the other one. You can watch via my channel or from this link ua-cam.com/video/Q76CwKU1vrQ/v-deo.html Thanks 😁
I am Japanese and often make cute anime-song like songs for Japanese singers. I have some advice for this tutorial, including my personal opinion. ∙ Piano is often a beautiful, moving phrase with lots of tension notes such as 7ths and 9ths. ∙ It is correct to use the strings as a pad-synthesizer. The purpose is to fill the space of the music. The bass rarely uses only the root note as in the video. Basically, we often use eighth notes to make fancy movements using root, 5th, 9th, etc. In the latter half of the chorus, use high frets as well. For sound effects, you can use impact like in EDM or wind chimes, glockenspiels, and timpani like in orchestras to make it even prettier. Finally, the song as a whole is often syncopated. Sometimes the entire instrumentation will be in tune with the rhythm of the melody. I'm rooting for you! Have fun!
Only thing you did qrong was the bass. Thats all. The bass in jpop moves around on the scale. So instead of following the root notes. It moves onnthe scale to the root note. Playing the notes inbetween. Atleast. So i heard. Other than that. This is insanely well made. And i cannot thank you enouvh for this. Ive always had a bit of atruggle with jpop. And now j see what ive been doing wrong. Tha k you so muxh. Also. That fdim in the bridge. Holy shit. It should not be in amaj key, but it workd insanely well. Like holy shit. Im stealing that XD. Thanks!
@@siorganism so very simply put. You need to know what a scale is, a series of notes in a specific order. So Cmaj scale would be all the white notes on a piano. And the root note of a chord is the bass note, or the note of the chord. So Cmaj would have C as a root note. And Cmaj/E would still have C as a root note, but with an E in the bass. The bassline in jpop often follows the bassnotes in chords and rootnotes, but it also does some stuff inbetween the notes. Like adding some notes inbetween to move upwards or downwards. But sometimes the bass has its own full melody. And ive even seen songs where the bass plays completely different things than the melody and chords. It takes a while, but if you learn music theory, and learn to feel the music, you will understand.
Nice, just wanna let you know that you can quantize in GarageBand instead of move all the notes to the right tempo. It would definitely save you a lot of time!
this is so amazing! I started making music in garageband not too long ago and never even knew some of the functions in this video, so tysm! gunna try to recreate this tomorrow
For production practice I’m currently recreating this song and adding my own spin in rhythm and mainly the verse section and bridge . The chorus is essentially the same except I changed the fill at the end. It’s really fun! This definitely sets the foundation to creating both jpop music to music in general. Except as many have pointed out, the bass definitely has more action than what you’ve created but that’s okay! Haha
Wow interesting, i aslo made a recreation of this piece expect i added the rest of the song like the second verse, second bridge and second chorus etc, i also changed the first verse as well as added some suspense at some parts 👍
Just a quick tip instead of having to go back and fix every note to make sure it’s perfectly in time, just use go to your instrument and tap the button that to the left of FX, in there you should be able to add quantization so it’s perfect every time in the settings.
This is an extremely basic way of putting it LOL. Some suggestions I have are having more fun with the bass and drums. Try to mix your drums good so they sound like a studio drumkit. For the bass really just go crazy LMAO. The bass is like the main groove of the song for j rock, so having a solid bassline will help make this even better. Hope you continue making cool stuff!
and for people that love drums you just thinks that preson who record drum is your favourite drummer character from randomly anime (IMPORTANT) you must know their skills (example) i want ritsu drumming in my songs all i have to do is listening to all k-on song in 5hours or 2days then try to make it out close to ritsu
small piece of criticism from someone who probably shouldn't be giving it: the drums feel empty, maybe not what you wrote but the kit itself, and the back up piano is way to simple and isn't really adding anything.

The worst part of these kind of videos aren’t that they are not tutorials on how to make this kind of music, but that damn METRONOME.

yes the bass is very groovy in basically most of japanese songs, also whats wrong with your keyboard xd
Yeah, I really like the bass on Japanese songs, they're very melodic and fun to listen to... Also fun to play...
Can you explain what you mean like Im five

Thank you so much!! I plan on making a Vocaloid like song, or something that is familiar to Vocaloids, and I just can’t thank you enough for this!! ^^

GOD WHY IS SO GOOD!!!!????
THIS USER SHOULD NEED MORE ATTENTION!!!!
THANKS MAN IT FEELS LIKE AN ANIME OPENING

I slowly got more and more impressed as the video went on, I wish I had this talent😭
In my anime-style compositions I very often use the IV - VIIø - iii - vi - ii - V - I chord progression.
Thats why bocchi the rock anime make us inspiration and making own music it was good idea

You are super talented!
Amazing!

Hello, I like your project production very much, can you share your midi project? Thanks

I would recomend adding more sybals to go harder
밴드부 동아리에 비슷하게 사용해도 될까요?
This music reminds me of take me on meme
Is this free use like a creative Commons or would I have to pay to use this song
Awesome song!!! I also tried making a song once but it turned out awful 😭
14:31 Final Results ❤️

Go ahead 😄 Just made sure to credit me lol
Hell yeah lesgoooo this is gonna be fire
14:30 final result
Bro.. we need a music video.(pls)
Is it possible to use Adobe Audition to make anime music.
MAPPA is typing....
bro cooked
chords almost sound like viva la vida
Can someone tell me why does he use Fdim and manage to have it blend so well with this scale?
Fdim is a no-root V dominant chord of the F#min, the Amaj relative minor mode.
and for people that love drums

How did you copy and paste (convert) one instrument onto another 😳😵💫😧
!!
it is apple exclusive
now add lyrics and you get an anime opening

I'm sad when Garageband is for iphone and I am android user :(

Garage band and logic are great!! But the drum kits are ass unless you play around with the sounds properly imo
8:43
This is cool but did anyone else notice that this has kind of the same chord progression as never gonna give you up?
ua-cam.com/video/6aezSL_GvZA/v-deo.html
Yup it does
Didn’t notice that lol
5:04
Metronom 999=j rock
Ever had a tutorial make you feel bloody inferior.
Comparison is the thief of joy. I'm sure they probably had more practice than you at the very least. But i'm sure you can get there
Hi, what software/app is this? Is it free?
it’s GarageBand, for iOS devices like Iphone or Ipad, and it’s free system app
Broke music is the best music.
what the name of this song???
Idk haven’t named it yet 🤷♂️
To hard to find a melody
small piece of criticism from someone who probably shouldn't be giving it: the drums feel empty, maybe not what you wrote but the kit itself, and the back up piano is way to simple and isn't really adding anything.
i cant believe it, my 14 year old self is still looking for this video LMAOO
Same
