Writing a Metal Song without GUITAR
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 чер 2024
- Today, I attempt to write a metalcore song WITHOUT any guitars, using only my synths and the @wave-alchemy Triaz Plugin. Can I make this song djent and sound like a deathcore tone without using a 7 or 8 string guitar or without real drum sounds? Using Ableton Live, this song turns out to be closer to EDM than thall, but it might be a nice cross genre. Stick around to find out and if you like what you hear and would like to save 10% off triaz, use code "BKPTRIAZ10"
I'm Brendon Padjasek of the band Structures from Toronto, Canada and welcome to my channel based on modern metal, djent, and deathcore music, production, mixing and song writing.

Thanks for watching! Save 10% off Triaz using code BKPTRIAZ10
Yo, the production in this video is fucking insane
Hahhaa thank you so much. Believe it or not everything was written within that 1:52 time allowed on my SD card
Thanks for watching!
Luckily I have such inspiring synths to play my ideas through
@@BrendonKPadjasek yeah, it's really nice to see you step out of your typical comfort zone. Makes people like me also get inspired to do something like that
@dingoguitar thank you. Yeah I highly suggest it! I feel inspired to write more music like this now
Hi dude, loved this, I've been making alot of metal without guitars for years and it was really cool to see an inside look on how you as a guitarist would utilise synths to do the same 🔥
Sick! Do you have any songs out that I can check out?
And thank you! Yeah I basically just transcribed whatever I would have done on guitar to synths haha
I want to hear this with guitars omg that was so gooood
Hahhaa thank you. That would be cool. Maybe one day I’ll do that if I have time
I travel a ton for work and sometimes can't lug a guitar with so I've been drifting into writing heavier electronic music.
It’s a lot of fun. I definitely want to dive in a bit more
@@BrendonKPadjasek I'd went into a little bit of a synthwave kick but started digging for some heavier stuff for inspiration... Carpenter Brut is a good starting point I've found for darker electronic stuff.
@Terribleguitarist89 I’ll have to give it a go. Thanks for the suggestion!
Sick video, check out Bury the light by Casey Edwards, he did the same thing coz Capcom said no guitars in the soundtrack
Oh that’s awesome. I’ll definitely check that out. Thanks for watching and thanks for the suggestion!
Sounds sick! But it definitely makes me wish I could hear it on guitars haha
Hahaha thank you. Part of me also wishes that too haha. It was a fun exercises and I’m sure if I had more than 2 hours to make it , I would have made it so guitars weren’t as needed
Though guitars would make it sicker regardless.
Thanks for watching !
Is this gonna be posted as an individual song anywhere? This is incredible
Thank you so much. Honestly I’m not sure no enjoyed making it a lot that I may develop it a bit further and do some sort of visualizer for it. If enough people like it enough for me to justify doing it haha
Thanks so much!
This is incredible!!
Ehh thanks so much my man! That means a lot! I had a blast making it
Awesomo dudee!!
Thank you so much Damian! I had a lot of fun making it haha
Dude this hits hard omg❤
Ehh thank you so much. I actually had so much fun making it I may work on a new project like this haha
great video.
Thank you! That really means a lot as every aspect of it was a lot of work
This is next Doom soundtrack. The weak drums sounding like its midi from 1993 also make it a great thowback reference.
Thank you my friend! That is an honour to hear that haha. Yeah I think it makes for a very nostalgic vibe as well
Fire vid as always, who are ur favorite electronic artists?
Thank you my friend! Hmm Health is pretty damn sick. Other than that honestly , Hans Zimmerman by far is my favourite
What about you?
@@BrendonKPadjasek just checked health they are awesome. Mine are probably Pleq or rufus du sol.
@red240red2 oh damn I haven’t heard of either. I’ll have to check them out!
Dude this is insane
Thank you so much my man. It was definitely a difficult task but I love the outcome. Thanks for watching!
😍
My brother who is actually an actor apparently
Now I really have no excuse for making shitty music lol. Outcome was insane
Hahaha thank you my friend! Our creativity is the only thing stopping us
Haha Love the intro
hahaha thanks my man! I had fun making it with my buddy
that chorus slaps
Haha thanks my man. I was also surprised once I had it mixed how well it translated. I also love the vibe of the verse
Thanks for watching!
opinions on the "Odin II"?
I’ve never heard of it. What is that?
@@BrendonKPadjasek vst guitar
@uvb76enjoyer oh sick I should check that out
What if The Browning only did electronics?
Is that what this sounds like? I haven’t ever listened to them so I’m not really sure. Thanks for watching !
@@BrendonKPadjasek Give it try, it's fun af
@motherflanker68 will look into it! Thanks
Didnt meshuggah use midi on their albums
Midi guitar? I know they used midi drums for an album or 2
@@BrendonKPadjasek they used midi drums for the entirety of the catch 33 album because they liked the sound of them in the mix and it was easier than thomas learning all the drum parts
@ThatMeepus ahhh that’s the one. I wasn’t sure if it was Nothing or Catch 33
That was awful! I mean, the song is ok, it reminds me of Midnight Fight Express' OST which is kinda cool, bu the song is not remotely metal. My Own Private Alaska made metal with piano, guitar is not mandatory!
I’ll have to check it out to see what you’re talking about. Thanks for watching anyways even though you hated it! I appreciate those 15 minutes either way
Also, what genre would you call this close to if not metal so I can correctly genre it next time ?
I am sorry, I failed to convey what I was trying to say! I meant the song was awful as a metal song, but it is cool and reminded me of the OST I've mentioned. About what genre it belongs to I feel I'm not capable to say because I'm not familiarized with EDM and such. I know it is not metal at all! 😀
@Davier9999 no worries! yeah I’m not sure either haha. I used typical metal movements but I guess you’re right. What would you say would have made it metal/ metalcore?
@@BrendonKPadjasek I think that using a different rhythm in the drums, or using something closer to conventional drums like ezdrummer. The samples you've used are really good for trap and EDM, but I think they don't give much of a metal vibe. Now I'm thinking how I would do a metal track without guitars too. Not an easy task!
