Please
Loved your live stream Jonas!
Jonas Aden loved your Livestream! 👍🏼 Hope we run in to each other someday. After all we know many of the same persons😀🤝
I don’t have any tricks for melodies (maybe I should have) but I know the feelings of the scales and modes well so I choose a scale and/or mode based on my mood and after writing down some chords the main melody kinda writes itself. 😀
Jonas Aden: "But I'll shut up now"
Also Jonas Aden: *keeps talking*
heehehe
Jonas, yup!😂👏
@@AdenFoyer "But I'll shut up now" is a nice title for a track..or a T-shirt. U fix?
Was thinking the same thing
666 likes yeeeeee
Your mouse is more aerodynamic than my car
hahahahahah
I sprayed
oh my
But not better than my dad's belt 🥺
Hold up maybe a normal mouse is more areodynamic!! XD XD!!
When making melodies, I often find myself humming a note while I frantically click around on the piano roll trying to find that note before I forget the melody. XD
Holy shit same
@@imcryst4l time to start voicenoting your melodies BEFORE you start clicking them in! ;)
@@AkaraEtteh This. I used to be very uncomfortable recording my own voice and listening to it, but this is arguably the most useful advice for anyone who wants to make music (Especially if you don't play an instrument like me)
Me too lol
YES
So Jonas went ahead of us and went to Area 51 already, he left with a mouse and keyboard
Iwas searchin for the Playboy Mansion, ended up at Area 69... 👍
lmfao
Iwas also searchin for Hugh Hefners zip code & found it at XX(X)-666 👍
The mouse is from Anker and shaped to prevent damages in your hand
@@slsproductions8946
A Mouse does damage to your hand?
this guy has freaking candles on his desk, what a legend!
Classy 👌
Fire
FlexonDis i mean yep that's fire
Legend has it, those candles automatically turns on everytime he turns on FL Studio
He doesn’t even have them in a holder
Can't focus on the video with this keyboard and mouse
Ya that's cool
So True... Lol
We gamers don't use these mouse😂
what's the name of those neat looking devices?
I own the same keyboard and mouse :-D
When he said "lets dive right into it" and his mouse looked like a shark
It's from Anker
Me being impressed already.
Jonas Aden: *It's still pretty lame*
😂 relatable
Bruh. I started getting impressed with his keyboard in the background.
Me spending 5 hours making a half okay melody.
Jonas: Makes insane melody in 3.5 seconds
Here's something I realized about making melodies... Use chords! You don't have to keep them, just use them. Why? because the way I see it, they're like training wheels. You use a couple of simple chords and there's a lot of empty spaces in between each chord... Because of this, your brain wants to feel up those empty spaces. Even in song writing I kind of noticed it works as well. Chords leave so much breathing room for an extra melody or 2. Good luck and keep creating!
I showed this to my dog.
*now he's a full-time producer*
Great 😂
he is a potato-time producer
Was he your friend
@@rkxd1337 What is a potato-time?
@@TheWorteldrie there are 2 meanings. 1. he's eating a potato and makes music. 2. he makes music on a potato (can be just a potato, or a potato pc)
*watches aiden for the first time*
Me: sees alien keyboard and mouse
Ka1d0 Fear the Fin! Make it Teal...
@@DudleyaSetchellii hmm sounds too Northern for Finland, lets go to the north Pole
@Arne A second mouthless seal in the wild?!
When I watch the video I'm like: “Ok, I'm gonna use this... And this... And probably this one too. ”
Me when I sit down on the couch and turn on the laptop:
“Ugh... What melody should I do?"
*30 minutes later* "I have no idea what to make, let's play Minecraft! ”
”Lets play minecraft”
I see you are a man of culture aswell
The struggles...
Everytime .
Music isn't something you should have to force yourself to make. The melodies should come to your head whenever and however they do throughout the day. I usually find myself humming tunes and grabbing my phone to record them. Then later when I get home I turn it into music or a song. But F*** MUSIC LETSPLAYSOMEMOTHAF******MINECRAAAAAAAAFT!!!!
@@TheWorteldrie same thing here, except when i get home i end up scrapping the idea because it doesn't sound good to me
He created better melodies in 10 minutes than i managed in 4 years... (and now i'm depressed)
he makes it look so easy 😢
Than stop making music and try painting of skateboarding.
Do something what you're talented at. Stop waisting your time.
This sounds like what i had to practice after my 3th piano lesson.
Listen to some good jazz or Frank Zappa.
If you want to know what unpredictable is.
This is what every 5 year old kid can come up with.
I hope in the future
This awsome guy goes a bit more in depth whit this melody theory.
@@danieldewindt3919 hey, if every 5 year old kid can come up with something like this, i think our friend should as well right? also you should take into account that EDM is not really about making melodies too complex, making its genres accessible to produce for even the least musically gifted people. there's no need for jonas to go much in depth with the melody theory imo
@@herbertengelhardt7726 true that
never compare your chapter 1 with someone else chapter 20 :) its just he has more ear training... its not you are less talent as that poor chap said below in your reply section :) you are way better than you think ....
Legend has it, those candles automatically turns on everytime he turns on FL Studio
The only annoying thing in your videos is when you keep apologising
lol true
so true ! you're talented dude don't beat yourself up !
ua-cam.com/video/6LSgreQnuuM/v-deo.html
Would be fun if he'd apologize for doing this.
I’m sorry about being sorry.
Could you make a "make a drop to this track" competition?
That would be awesome
🔥👆
You dont need to go on a Music producer School, fx like Herman brood academie. We got Jonas Aden as a teacher. 🔥💪🏽
yea true
Herman Brood Academie is fkin fantastic though :))
Nothing is going to INSTANTLY make you produce better melodies. Just learn about music and practice... Everybody just tries to make music once and then gets frustrated that it doesn't sound good. You have to put in work, there's no shortcuts in any aspect of this, or any aspect of life for that matter. Learn by doing, people.
I think it's so cool with the money from youtube and producing he doesn't care to get a new keyboard even though he left it on top of the gas hob accidentally. As long as it works he's still using it! Respect!
No one:
Jonas aden: "I'll shut up now"
Jonas brings the best high quality content on youtube ! :)
To be honest, I really miss this content from you! I started looking at everything again, it helps and inspires me a lot! But, at the same time, I'm happy for you as a person and as an artist that you've moved on to a new step in your life, and you're doing it perfectly ! I wish you all the best
I only just started on FL, its all a bit overwhelming but watching these kind of videos definitely helps to find my way around the program.
I'm sure this will help a lot of producers to make better sounding tracks! 😍
Ay bro, Your pfp is similar to mines!
My dog just learned how to make melodies! :o
Best dog ever
Sweet! My fish wants to collab with your dog!
Fisher X Doggo
Don't forget to pray fl studio god😂
victory royale

#1 JONAS ADEN ON DJMAG
*Lets get a remix of the UA-cam premier countdown music* xD
s u r e
I love writing melodies. I struggle with sound design in trying to get something fresh and new for my lead melodies. Great video again Jonas. Thanks :-)
Thank you for making a tutorial that actually includes how to give more character and subtle differences to a melody!
This is very dope man, so many unique tips aswell that I haven't seen anywhere else. Very helpful.
This melody *has* to be used in a new song, Jonas
I’m getting those Avicii vibes smh XD
Good to know I wasn't the only one xD
Yehhh avicii
Avicii changed the game so much that now everyone is massively influenced by him.
+11111
rip
I think this is a good work for the music-beginner.god job!
Legend says he is still liking comments 🤘
heheeh
Definitely won't now :D (pshhh, Jonas)
Jonas Aden hehh

Medusa - Piece Of Your Heart (Jonas Aden cover)
I came to this video thinking 'I'll have to watch 16 and a half minutes just to see 5 tips?' and right at that moment the video started with him listing all 5 tips
you just got a new subscriber
Who Else get’s crazy melodies in their head watching these but forgets IT when you try to put IT in fl.
sing it and use voicememo on phone
Awesome tutorial! Btw. Alan Walker played your song "Your Melody" on the Open Beatz Festival. That was amazing =)
Could you make a tutorial on how you layer your sounds etc?
Btw, I learnt alot from this video. Keep it up!
the keyboard sounds beautifull man. Good tip about learning an actual instrument. I've been wanting to learn the piano for a looooooong time!
Good vid overall, stay strong bro!
To be honest , i think you are the best youtube channel to learn producing tips. I started producing this Summer and you are helping me a lot. Greetings from spain 🇪🇸, we are waiting for you here🙌🏽🤟🏽
Love the suspense the premier adds to your videos!
Future bounce producer: makes progressive House melody.
THIS is a tutorial i've been searching for months now and i finally found it. Thats a sub fella :D
This is for sure the best tips on making better melodies I have ever learned during the last 6 years. Thanks Jonas ❤️.
VERRY NICE....
1:46 : nothing
me : closes eyes
1:47 : jesus christ
layztheali same
Wha
This is gold, trust me. Thanks for sharing such amazing video!
aaaa why is he so lovable? he helps me so much without making me feel dumb. i love him!
Amazing tutorial, hope i can improve my production with these tips
CEO of i’m gonna shut up now
Thanks for you tips Jonas! It helped me with my sounddesign a lot.
Man, you explain things very well, and even i pay more attention the background, i can understand what you're explaining
Jonas Aden:“ I will give you the best Tipp.“
Also Jonas Aden:“ It is not the best Tipp.“
You should do a video for people just starting out and what you should focus on learning for a good foundation going into music production i think that would be very helpful. Also your tutorials are great 👍👍👍
Yo Jonas! I've always felt like my songs were missing something for a long time. I think I make great melodies, but they always ended up sounding like something was missing. Changing up the chords to enhance the melody is probably the best tip you could have given me right now.
Stora tack från en kille i ditt grannland!
You're one of the coolest edm UA-camr I've seen...!!! Even after being talented so much and producing sick songs, you're still down to earth which I like the most of you.. Great!!!
❤️
I see that FL keys is also your best friend for melodies !! 😂
Great video man !
I showed this to my pet lizard
He’s still a lizard, but we both really enjoyed the video...
what a great way of showing tips and "secrets"!! this might be the only video i actually understood what to do...
The last tip was dope! Thanks!
Thank you so much for being so detailed when you explain your work and your techniques!!! Truly inspirational! ❤
You explain stuff so calm and good thanks for the good content man keep it up
thanks for watching manN
I really had trouble creating melodies and this video gave me some ideas as well as some tips and tricks I didn't know! THANKS JONAS! :)
Probably the best video on making melodies on UA-cam
12:40 SSIIDDEECCHHAAIINN!
Turn your bell notifs on guys, it's obvious that this is going to be such an amazing quality video whoop whoop
You just made my melodys a lot better, before i didnt even know how to make a melody, and now there a lot better i think
These are some good tips for future bass/house/edm. Thanks! BTW his mouse is an upright ergonomic mouse and the keyboard is also egronomic.
my producer skills increased 200%
14:20 is that person always behind the camera???
'Pitch bend' is well explained. i liked both the melodies. Thanks again.
I really appreciate your human side as producer that can be explained by thinking to others through posting this kind of vlogs god bless your heart man 🙏
Hey! My favorite teacher gives new amazing lesson)
yo you NEED to make merch with the line "I'll Shut Up Now.." .I'd totally buy it XD
i think that you have an AMAZING studio bro, i'm really jealous right know
Why do you do this? You make good videos and it makes me go into the studio and sit there for 2 hours before realizing I'm not quite there yet😅
I’d love to see how you made your old remix of Lean on
Couldn't wait for that
Btw, I really need someone who knows anything about mastering :)
Didn't know you could do pitch bends directly in the piano roll! Thanks for sharing.
seriously this is the best melody tip video I've ever seen regardless if you think you repeated yourself too much lol
This sounds a lot like how to draw an owl
Do the outline of some basic shapes
Draw the rest of the owl
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TEACH US ALL THIS!!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤️❤️
THE BEST!!!!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Jonas "Okay Ill shut up now" Aden 🔥
How is he having the time to release these amazing bangers, play shows and still make the best producing videos? And is also so symphatic!
Thanks!! No sleep, very coffee
@@AdenFoyer haha
The instrument at 8:18 my lord my ears are in love
~we touch I get this feeling and every time we kiss I swear we could fly~
I dunno why but I hear this when I hear your melody
hahahahah
The best thing i like in your videos is you are being yourself and you make your videos by heart that inspires me .
Love From Kashmir India 🍁
This gets me so excited to get home and learn more. thanks so much for sharing.
Me: How was the melody?
Aden: Dum dum dumdu Ding Ding dum
Me: Thank you 🙏😂
Jonas Aden: Uploads
Me: *clicks faster than the speed of light*
Hej Noah...
powerful tips and advice. i really like the learning an instrument piano tip and in singing the melody.
I liked the second melody, sounded cool
Jonas please make video about panning
Where to pan lead
Precussions
Synths in a song to make mix clear ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Jonas!
I have been watching your videos on repeat the last week. Im never played any instruments or software and can now make a decent track. Thanks
1st one sounds like Mike William and Tiesto's "I Want You"
Thanks for all the tips though!
