Painting with sound - a techno exercise
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 тра 2024
- Try this at home: you take a stable synth riff, control the filter cutoff, and feed it into a series of massive delays & reverb, to set off a beautiful cascade of sound. We'll call this "painting with sound".
Inspired by requests to analyse Planetary Assault System's sound design strategies, this exercise hopes to make you think more deeply about stability, repetition, timbre, texture, and energy contour, all without ever changing the notes of the synthesizer.

I've recently discovered that one of my favourite things is when I'm watching a YT tutorial like this and the creator is clearly really enjoying themselves 😄
I have been making techno for about 10 years however I love this channel as it re-affirms what I have already found out and adds a little extra.
I've been doing it since 1991. Still find cool stuff on this channel.
Pretty much the same for me. It gets me to similar places in different ways, or verbalized things I don’t talk to anyone about.
Your channel is literally the best simultaneously for beginners and people who have been creating music. keep doing what your doing!!
Thaaaaaaaaaaaaanks 💚
@@OscarUnderdog u r the best teacher ever
That was a great choice for a song.
10:38 i love it too!
For anyone that needs to know: the Bob Ross UA-cam channel always has marathons on the weekend. Best come down from the rave. ❤
Hahahah love this tip!
The Joy of Techno 🎨🖌️🌈🎶❤️
The right portion of muse at the right time... thank's Oscar 👍
I'm glad you're getting positive feedback on your teaching style, because it's well-deserved! I'm totally hooked on this channel - each video is packed with genuinely insightful and applicable info. Thanks for all your hard work :)
This channel is indispensable! I've been *tinkering* since FL was Fruity Loops (v 2.8!), and and while I could say I have graduated the more "beginner" subject matter here, I still find value in EVERY video, whether a better understanding of something basic I skimmed over back then, or a new way to look at something simple with many uses.
absolute love
!!
Very cool tutorial! Thanks!
Great! As always, you fill it with technical inspiration!
Ive always loved the thought of painting a scene with my music.. thats why i almost always use some form of atmospheric foley. like keyboard typing, forest sounds, storms.. etc
That and that kinda stuff just fits really well with deep, atmospheric hiphop that I write
Amazing work Oscar - Always a pleasure to watch your videos - you are a champion !
Thank you again for the superb content as always
Goosebumps are there !
Another inspirational snippet. Keep up the smile inducing work!:)
I absolutely love watching your tutorials! thx for your efforts!
Wow. This came at exactly the time that I needed it. Thanks so much!
I knew it was worthwhile supporting you on Patreon, you are a top class teacher and your methods are solid.
Love your videos. Truly the most informative out there. Thanks 🙏
Thank You! Your videos keeps me going!
AMAZING TUTORIAL! THANKS A LOT!
Parks and Wilson had an amazing album called 'Painting with Sound' back in the early 2000s....so good and so dark!
Wasn't it called Painting on Silence?
@@danielgal6000 yes it was ...i just realized! you can search it on youtube. I just listened again SO GOOD.
@@djsydneyblu Great! Discovering stuff like this is why I always have to read the comments. I never heard of Parks and Wilson before, but then I read that both were part of Tilt in the past (and Park still is). And each new track I find on youtube is a potential rabbithole of new stuff which I usually encounter at 3am when I should be sleeping ua-cam.com/video/EsDIx8xiHOI/v-deo.html
Brilliant! thanks bud!
Thank you, really enjoyed that
as usual : excelent !
Brilliant videos Oscar 👏👏👏 thank you for sharing your knowledge ❤️
Love watching these videos man, this is what production videos should be like! :)
Absolute legend
And I could listen to that all day. Awesome tutorial :)))))))))))
this is gold!
I love your techno videos helps me a lot
You are inspiring as always, thank you!
Your videos are so beneficial for producing music, thank‘s a lot.
Man, Thanks for all the knowledge, i was able to learn, and re- learn a lot of stuff from your videos. You explain things in such a mature and straight forward way, i really love that.
This channel is the best recent discovery I've made! So grateful to you for sharing this knowledge and so so super well explained 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🌿
I love your videos man, best out there.....thank you!
Easily the most helpful & engaging teacher in this space 👍🏻
you sir are the best!
Quality content as always 👍
Always very inspiring, thank you ! :)
You're a great teacher. I know next to nothing about music production, but your videos have really helped me understand lots of concepts involved with electronic music. I hope one day soon I can get stuck in and utilize some of these techniques :)
You can't beat a great teacher with deep knowledge and passion for their subject. Thank you sir.
I’ve always loved the ‘immersionalist’ (TM) aspect of techno, dropping inside a new reality of texture, light and colour. Feeling the sensations of a wide aural landscape. Glad I’m not the only one. Planetary Assault Systems is a great track to learn from. The next would be Basic Channel - Quadrant Dub.
I've been completely living in DnB land since the late 90s, picked up a love of house and electro in the mid 2000s, but completely slept on techno until I went to Berlin about ten years ago. I'd only lightly picked it up as a sort of side genre of interest, until the last couple years when I've really come to appreciate the depths techno can take you.
Any further suggestions for old classics would be much appreciated.
@@Sypher474 Jon Hopkins and Daniel Avery have also dropped some amazing music recently.
Held! Thanks man!
Man you're awesome , thank you for everything and thank you for every information , you help me alot , and now i can have another view about making techno , thank you , so grateful for you , keep it up
Going straight home to do this, but on the MPC one.
I’ll actually use this in my next track, Thanks a lot!!
I love it tooooooo.....
This vid is amazing, huge fan of hypnotic techno from artists like border one, translate and of course planetary assault systems, where this technique is very prevalent!
Love your videos!
Yeah i would agree with that analogy - you are the Bob Ross of Techno.. Im so glad i stumbled onto this channel. I found what i was always looking for.. Respect Oscar!!
I really needed that!!!
You're a legend!
Great tutorial my friend!! 🔥🔥🔥
This is awesome. I inadvertently discovered the same / similar technique on one of my early tracks, I noticed there was an awesome psychedelic effect created by adjusting the Filter Cutoff knob, which really transformed the track. Great explanation of the Hybrid Reverb, thanks for that.
Next level turorials!
Duuuude. This is awesome. 👍🏻👊🏻 ❤️
Fantastic technique! Totally agree with the Bob Ross comparison-- there's happy little reverb
best tutorials !!
Your teaching style is fantastic. Very simple clear and straight forward. I could learn a lot from you. I wish you were a logic x tutor.
Yeaahhh 🤘Simples but sooooo effective tricks 🤩 Haha I love that sounds too 🔊🔊🔊
I love it.. as engineer I watch your channel from other perspective and is awesome
Underdog! I love watching you in black n white while listening to Your track
dude, this is ready to go template for an industrial techno track) just awesome)
Hi i once said you are Johny Sins of techno you know what is next theme for video.
Underrated
Awesome video like always. would be cool to see a video on creating atmospheres and/or drones for melodic/driving techno
This is VIDEO Benefit THANK YOU🌞
Oscar your passion is so inspiring!! Always excited when I see a new videos of yours...💜 Next time can we hope to see you with a Bob Ross wig??
Amazing as always and reassuring too... I think what you just showed Oscar is what at the core of music making is - having fun and experimenting... The only issue with this approach is, I fiddle around with Goosebumps just to realise suddenly that the whole day is gone and it's already dark outside ;).
thanks you so much !!
i love you, thank you.
Superb
thank *YOU*
PLEASE do more explanations of Planetary Assault Systems techniques!!! Somehow Luke Slater feels overlooked? I'd love a take on Bell Blockers
Thanks for video
Good job as always Oscar ! Like many others I can't wait for the next video !
Thanks for changing my hobby into a passion I'm really considering now participate to the next scheduled Underdog bootcamp!
...Meanwhile... what about analysing or recreating an AIROD track?
Hey Oscar!
Got any videos planned on performing techno live? And on what macro’s you like to use, or some tips on instrument racks?
Love the videos!
I love all of your info I've been applying in my loopstation sessions and it's helped a lot!
I would love to see you making a video using the Rc505 MK2 to make something with and see you using all the effects. 🤙 I'm considering enrolling in a class BTW.
Great work
lots of happy little chord hits
I don’t use a DAW, but the way you present concepts is enough for me to follow the channel.
Jo dude! All i have to say is: great content/ great dude / great Videos
Love you my Bob Ross
Awesome channel. Very pedagogical.
Would be nice if you could bring the workflow of oldschool masters like Bolland, deWulf, Beltram amongst others into DAW.
niiiiiice one!
One thing i absolutely love for biiiiig reverb/delay smears is Valhalla supermassive. Its a completely free super simple delay plugin that makes delays that sort of taper off/transform into reverb. It has a bunch of cool presets and lots of settings to play around with
Thanks for the suggestions, I've just downloaded it. I always try to find good free plugins because I'm no professional and can't invest hundreds of euros on my hobby.
@@gagaxueguzheng same. I mostly use ableton stock plugins
Fuse 👌
Nah bro I literally called you Johnny Sins of Techno
Great video again.
I recently discovered there is a free (if you have ableton suite) convolution reverb pack available to download. Then you won't have to to use blend to get the desired result.
Dope! Thanks for your excellent tutos! Is there once place to download all your poster at once?
Planetary assault systems ftw👊👊👊
hahahah 100% the bob ross of techno!
Great video as always! Is there any chance you could analyse Cirez D in the future? Particularly a track called The Accuser if possible, thank you!!
🔥🔥🔥
We have found the Bob Ross of electronic music production!
_Let's put some happy 303's over here, yeah.. so happy. Oops, too much resonance but it works. No mistakes when it comes to happy 303's_
Nice sound, which delay time are you using for the two different delays?
Great tutorials!
Hey dude, great stuff - ID on the PAS tune in the intro?
Put off watching this because of the title of the video but was also kind of intrigued by it. Maybe my brain is just fried from all of the other youtube clickbait, but that's definitely something you have to compete with haha. Excellent video though
