    It would be amazing if you could do a video explaining some terms used in music to describe a sound, like how you said that you wanted to make it sound more expressive. I hear many other musicians use these terms, and I don't always know what they mean.

    Thankyou so much, your
    explanations are absolutely spot on !! I have no idea how to build songs but it's such an addictive hobby your videos keep me progressing little by little, do your courses include sound design with serum and sylength I love trance, it's all I want to make 😢

  • @WYLMAS
    @WYLMAS 3 місяці тому

    Going with such a trance defying sound from the very begging and at the 4:00 mark saying that you are going deep house direction. Strange. Its a Textbook Trance right there. Just slow BPM. Sounds f*king amazing!

  • @chaosevolution
    @chaosevolution 7 місяців тому +1

    I do this naturally in a lot of my music. My track 'The Golden City' (deephouse) is a good example.

  • @desxxvi

    I hate and love how much I've grown to trust you because I'm about to seriously consider your class even though im fully self taught up until this point, i believe your course can help push my style over the top and get me some actual progress in a music carrer, mixing and mastering is what im hoping to get the most out of but im sure the other aspects will help a great deal as well

    Sylenth 1 is awesome that's the only plugin I desired to have when I started producing 😊😊

  • @1SSJA
    @1SSJA 5 місяців тому

    the reason why that ride cymbal makes your chorus sound bright is because usually the top register of your song isn't hit until you reach the drop in the first place - that comes with high pads, high vocals, high harmony, melodies that hit higher and higher notes to add change, etc. the ride just utilises the free space

    @Alex Rome I tried to enroll in your bootcamp but it says you don't have time slots available in February for your 15 minute required conference call!
    I tried clicking both the front and back arrow on the calendar month and it wouldn't allow me to change the month to March or April for example. I'm
    stuck and it won't let me do anything to advance to the next page because of this. I think it could possibly be a bug with your site and the *BOOKING*
    section of that website. Hopefully you see this comment and can get back to me on this.

    Hey Alex, love the videos. I noticed you go back-and-forth between FL Studios and Ableton. I do prefer the keyboard in FL, but prefer Ableton for pretty much everything else. Was just wondering if there’s anything else you like better about FL studios?
