"some people shame me for putting reverb but i don't care" best mentality for making music, make what you like no matter what you have to do to achieve it, LEGEND
Music making is a fluid creature and you have to be fluid as well. I don't know rules, because I'm the only one doing it in my area. Meaning I'm self taught. don't try to remember it all, only retain what matters to you. I will say the most important thing to know is your daw and how to fully utilize it. Short cut key commands and it's features. May save you from buying plugins you don't need and time.
@Christopher Bradley Yeah, i have always been thinking that some basic much music theory is more or less essential, but too much of it and you just end up with commercial mass produced crap. I like to experiment and see what happens when i try different things. Definitely not very professional, but i just want to have fun. This being said, i still recommend checking out "The House Of Kush", who actually has some really good videos with all kinds of tips. Just a whole different level than other music channels. Almost get a little "high" from just watching him explain things, lol! Its a very "comfortable" experience 😅
Definitely, it sounded sick with reverb. Obviously the mixing stage low cutting the reverb would help but boxing ourselves in with “never use reverb on a bass” limits creativity IMO
I love how you start off explaining a fairly simple principle then wind up making the bones of a cool track almost by accident, clearly explaining every step along the way. Your lessons are some of the best that I have found in terms of clarity and delivery
I´ve been making music for almost ten years, got a few label releases out there already, but this guy still manages to teach me new stuff. Like adding Freq Delay on a bassline - so f*cking simple but effective, I never would have thought that myself! Thanks Oscar
Every producer, no matter how experienced, misses some tricks and techniques. That's why channels like this one are such a godsend. One could only dream of witnessing top tier producers' methodology in the 90s when I started dabbling, unless you had contacts in that world. I remember emailing with some producers for some tips and samples that were generous enough to share them, but there was nothing compared to the endless ocean of educational content we have these days. This generation is truly blessed in many ways.
@@renx81 Yeap... I gave it a go in the 90s as well but had no contacts either which resulted in highly UNsuccessful career as a producer... Now I'm rediscovering my hobby thanks to the unlimited wealth of information on the topic... Have already taken some online courses and probably will purchase Oscar's as well. LIke his teaching style.
Brilliant groove lesson. Wavetable synthesis and adjusting envelopes lfo's and the chord or note in sequence leads to great grooves. I'm curious if you can do a lesson that covers how to do the same with some of the modern keyboards like Yamaha ModX or older Roland Fantom G next for real time performance playing? I've seen some experts do it but none teach electronic music like you can. Thanks for the awesome lesson!
I love your channel. This is exactly the type of stuff I'm writing at the moment, and although a lot of this is elementary to me I'm still picking up a lot of subtle things I never realized before by watching your videos. Good stuff.
English is my secondary language, and many times I don't understand what exactly people saying. but I uderstand every single of your words like a native... That's so interesting -> clear mind transfer. Wonderfull work Oscar - thanks that you are !
You are such a great teacher. I will watch videos of yours even if I understand the topic already because you relate concepts in a very simple and engaging way.
Love it ... I have been saying to my Ableton student "please do not start with Wavetable ..." ans the Reverb on bass ... your answer is just perfect ... (bassline is not only sub frequencies) ... you are an inspiration on the friendly style of teaching electronic music production :)
I know this video is a month old (and I'm way behind on your uploads, sorry Oscar!) but I tried this out and it has been AMAZING. Thanks friend! Also, can we please consider a 💅 segment that intros your latest color choice, cause I would be here for that so much. 😅💙 Them silver nails are 🔥
Magical tutorial as usual. I love your delivery and that you are willing to try stuff out, even though you are showing us how to do it... Confidence in your craft!
Playing a dotted bassline over the top of a Moroder bassline is a sick trick to use as well. You can have your Moroder be your main, driving bass, while the dotted bassline could come in and out during certain parts of the arrangement. Bandpass the dotted bassline so it doesn’t interfere with the Moroder 👍🏻
Thank you very much for your work, Oscar! Everything is very clear and accessible. I've been following your channel for about a month now. You have been a revelation to me. Thank you! I know that you love techno music. But I would like to ask you if there is an opportunity to make some tutorials related to minimal music, namely the Romanian minimal? If it doesn't bother you.
Over the ears of learning I realized that there's only so much you can learn about producing through watching videos only. The real teaching moment I guess would be to sit with you Oscar, and try building a track :D I think that would be the best possible thing that could happen to me
Wow I’ve been in the modular space for awhile and avoidant of DAW’s out of it being too overwhelming, but this video really showed me how the two worlds, and pros and cons of each, can work together to make something shmackin!
I always love a dotted rhythm, insanely groovy! I also usually do two basses, a subby one and a low-mid ish one that has reverb on it, who shames reverb on bass though?????? btw it was nice running into you on Saturday at VK!
Well structured tutorial…as allways👍I recommend to try it out in combination with „orb hexachords“ - results can really get BIG! I love Your simple tips for the wavetable synth!!!
For the non-American viewers, an 8th note is technically a 3,175mm note and a dotted 8th note is 4,762mm. Hope that helps. And, remember, London is precisely 2.400 (2,400 Imperial) Tchaikovsky Swan Lakes away from Paris. Kinda strange how all those metric folks have no issue with that logic at all, when it applies to music, eh? Read my upcoming book ''If a bar were an inch'' to understand why the Euro brain would explode if it couldn't throw a wrench into every set of gears. It's a follow up to my other long awaited title ''We electrified music and all Europe could do with it was reinvent Disco... because voltage isn't metric either''. Or, you could buy the whole volume titled ''Why does all Euro music sound like Gay bar fluff?''.

Reverb on a highpassed mid range "bass" layer is a good technique for making bass sound bigger without messing up the actual low end.

JUST USE LAYERS end of discussion lol
The dotted bassline is like magic in terms of danceability. I think it applies to delay settings as well.
Exactly! I'm sure it's the reason that 3/16 is the default delay setting in most plugins.
I’m addicted to dotted 8th delays
@@OscarUnderdog good take!
@@the8bitdeity Same! Meris Polymoon dotted 8th notes are insanely fun

They way you explain and structure your stuff is pretty perfect.

so much knowledge in here

same here!!! thanks
I always enjoy and learn from your content Oscar.
Awesome loop, feel like it could be made into a killer minimal 2000s inspired techno song. Love the style!
you have any examples of this minimal 2000s techno ?
@@voodoornb Booker Shade, Mandy, Trentmöller, Steve Bug
not even techno but check Cosmosis & Ajja
This was exactly what I was wondering about after your previous bass video and now you've made it... and it is indeed magic!
I really like the reverb on the bass
actually, it's not reverb on a bass. It's reverb on high frequency part of a bass, so dunno what a reason for shaming.)
English is my secondary language, and many times I don't understand what exactly people saying. but I uderstand every single of your words like a native... That's so interesting -> clear mind transfer. Wonderfull work Oscar - thanks that you are !

Teşekkürler .

This was brilliant lesson dude. Nice pace, clear explanation and left me inspired to go do it. Thanks very much.
with the deeper filter, the baseline startet to pressing on the speakers. Very well done. Have we been witness of a birth of a new track?^^
“If it sounds tasty it is tasty!” Main takeaway! Thank youuu
Magical tutorial as usual. I love your delivery and that you are willing to try stuff out, even though you are showing us how to do it... Confidence in your craft!
Love this video and appreciate all the helpful tips along the way. Love your channel!
Great job bro !
I always said that the most important thing in Electronic dance music it is the drums sounds.
Very nice endresult!
Amazing video Oscar! Learned so much, and also laughed about the amazing outro 👌😂
hey mate , shift + down arrow for octave is pretty cool , thx again electronic heroe
Man I'm sharing your videos left and right. Thanks for all the knowledge!
Sharing is caring 🥰

You can have your Moroder be your main, driving bass, while the dotted bassline could come in and out during certain parts of the arrangement. Bandpass the dotted bassline so it doesn’t interfere with the Moroder 👍🏻
Yesss love it
Perfect timing Oscar. You are a great man. Thanks !
I love your workflow I learned so much from this video already
Thanks Oscar! Great technique and nice track 💜
Man out here doing great work. I kinda wish I was a newb so I could justify purchasing courses from you.
Find a newbie and sponsor them and Oscar at the same time buying a course as a gift 😆
Thank you, Oscar. Greetings from Argentina!
Just got into your channel, and I'm really connecting with your teaching style. Thank you for all your work !
Your channel is so helpful! Thanks for all the insights so far
Omg this gives me highkey 2000s minimal vibes thats what got me into techno back then thanksssss!
Thank you very much for your work, Oscar! Everything is very clear and accessible. I've been following your channel for about a month now. You have been a revelation to me. Thank you!

👍Really cool example UD Oscar great teach without a shadow of a doubt, TNX to you, greetings from Italy 😊👌
This works. Recommended to try this out. Thanks a lot for your help
Reverb on bass. I'm all for it. Nice channel brother. Thanks!
I really love your Videos! and i love your mindset about Music rules :D please do a full version of this track
Great stuff as always! Thanks for the ideas~
Also, love your nails!
❤️🙌
dotted basslines, that's core to funk, jazz, fusion
Another amazing video. Thanks again for making it. Love this channel
Great stuff Oscar! Nothing wrong with verb on basses!
Big thanks. Most vids I just listen and forget not so these ones !

your nails are on fire my dude.
💅🏻😇
I really like the way you explain everything, very thorough but easy to follow.

Shmack away!
amazing teaching, thank you
You are always great! Thanks Oscar! Your course is powerful at Electronic Music School! Appreciate it
You are very amazing thx for Tutorials ive learned many ...thx...Greets from Hamburg
Beautiful result.
Do a video on Industrial music.
If it sounds tasty, it is tasty. That bassline is delicious! Great video!
Ha. I love how this popped up while I was chilling on the couch with my Minibrute2S on my lap, sequencing basslines.
I always love a dotted rhythm, insanely groovy! I also usually do two basses, a subby one and a low-mid ish one that has reverb on it, who shames reverb on bass though??????
btw it was nice running into you on Saturday at VK!
Amazing video mate!!
Really love your videos, Oscar. They're always a joy to watch and an incredible source of knowledge. Wishing you all the Best! 🍻
Epic nails you got there! And obviously great video as always.
thank you again Oscar, that outro visual is maddening : )
👀
The moroder tutorial was great. I tried it on FL Studio Mobile. I love to relax with music.
Beautiful video and tune, cheers!
At first it sounded like most early 90s Eurodance hits a.la “Rhythm is a dancer” - love it :)
Awesome! Really got inspired now 😎
Always love your videos, cheers
Nice, love how it sounds! Thank you!
I want this track to be released 😊
Thanks Oscar turned out to be a gem 💎 love your content guna keep a close eye on your channel 👍 cheers. Nick
That track is fire.
Great video Oskar!!
Really good lesson, as always 👍 Now… did you make a full edit of the track ? It really sounds great !
Maravilloso vídeo oscar, cada vez lo haces mejor, didáctico, simple y divertido, saludos desde valencia España
I love your videos man. Keep it up!
''I'm not against this sound...'' 🙂 beautifully understated
Quality session. Nice job.
Such a great channel! Thanks much.
great video and funny outtro lol
Great video!
super interesting bass sound design
Well structured tutorial…as allways👍I recommend to try it out in combination with „orb hexachords“ - results can really get BIG! I love Your simple tips for the wavetable synth!!!
Best teacher ever
I like this track! Makes me wanna dance.
Amaizing, love it!
learn something everytime!!
honestly dotted everything sounds good
love this groove, my g!
Unfortunately, I have restarted my project that I had lost two years ago and have put in the work and that would be really nice of you
