This is an amazing video. I can see that your music influences is very broad and that makes me hopeful that future metal bands will also stop being narrowminded and will be more open as to what can be described as metal.
Bro I know you from October Ends! Your band is amazing and now hearing all these stems isolate makes me appreciate your work on a whole other level. Thanks for doing this video ❤
Dude if that NASTY bounce from the opening is what ‘October Ends,’ sounds like, and that’s coming from the same dude who does this channel? FUCKIN COUNT ME IN 🤝 Fuckin gas. I’m headed to Spotify right now to add them 🙌🏼 🥳
I'm surprised the first artist you mentioned was Halsey. Her album badlands is amazing indeed. Very dark and alternative and that saw bass sounds spot on! Layering real drums with electronic sounds massive too. A bit slow but great video!
Ngl I thought you were kinda rumbling at the beginning but it's only cause you're actually trying to give your knowledge and your way of thinking to the viewer. If you've got the time that's actually a really insightful video to watch. Thanks dude!
Really cool video! The guitars and riff also remind me of Bad Omens - The Death of peace of mind. If you listen the bad omens track at 2:41 you’ll see! Great video again!
You seem very knowledgeable and I like how none of those riffs sound like you're trying to copy someone but at the same time you're using these artists solely as inspiration. Very well done mate!
yooo crazy random, I have been jamming October Ends a lot recently and then this video popped up.. had no clue that you were a part of it. Ironically I would describe your band as Wage War meets Memphis Mayfire and Starset LOL so I wasn't too far off of even what you describe your own sound like. You guys fuckin rock!
awesome production man! maybe i missed it, but what did you use for the drums? was it a real kit or one/several libraries or a mix of both? they sound awesome!
You got cool tones and the final song sounds sick. But instead of just playing the sounds, can you give some more insight into how you got them? Which guitars? Which amps? Which cabs? What's your bus processing? How do you keep the drums punchy? And so on. There's a lot left unsaid still.
I’m gonna start breaking down everything starting from the next episode :) Glad you enjoyed the final song. You should check out our whole record. This one is not even the best one! Would love to hear what you think
@@NickMavromatis Basically the way I learned how to do music is watching and copying what my favourite artists and bands too. So ill always be looking out for "how to write a song like [band name]" or "how [song] from [band name] has been produced"!! Also love your band! Became a fan sometime this year and im looking forward to the new stuff!
11:30 Influences. That's actually how music evolves and keeps on living, with influences. And influences shall not come only from the same genre, as there's no meaning in musical genres to being kept pure blooded. No musical genre is even pure blooded, unless maybe if we look back at 30s jazz.
The music playback from your DAW was almost exclusively in mono during the video. Would've been nice to hear it in stereo when you were going through the guitars, guitars+bass, and the drums. Nice walkthrough, though!
Bmth made this unusual song that sounds so different and epic, please can you do a video on how to recreate the sound, I think there using a bass and an 8 string but I’m not 100% sure the video is bmth made a new song post human 2 part three!!!!
Some twat gave me shit for using midi guitars . I told him it sounds best in these unltrs low tunings . Glad to see my theory backed up . Awesome tutorial bro thank you . Gonna try adding synths behind the guitars . Are they hard left and right also ?
i love the fact you run so much high end gear and here you sit with some cheap ass phillips headphones. only noticed cause i used similar pair and loved them so much i bought few of them and used them until they broke since they were all plastic but the sound range was very nice for the price was only 17 dollars?
Oh sorry bro you got it wrong 😂 should have explained that I guess. I only use these headphones for when I do videos like that. I never mix on them or anything. But I also use them for when I record vocals. For every other occasion I use my EVEs
Wow you have a good ear mate. The cymbals are indeed GGD modern and massive although I wasn't very happy with them. I switched after this album. Rest of the samples are blends of different libraries. Some are Superior Drummer, some are Native Instruments and some are GGD Matt Halpern / modern and massive.
@@NickMavromatis stream the hell out of it! love it! I would like to see some tutorial how you create synth patches. to be honest there are many ones out there, but most of them are more for edm stuff and dont fit very well to modern metal. So I would love to see your synth patches and how you come up with ideas :)
Great video, man! Been working on a song kinda like this and I literally added octave guitar yesterday haha But now I'm really curious to layer in some guitar synths to the main riff as well. It sounds great in this song. Do you happen to know what was used?
Thanks man! Of course I do know what was used. I do all the sound design and synth sounds myself. I usually use a synth called Serum. Can do a tutorial on the sounds I use to layer the guitars if your comment gets enough thumbs up bro!
@@NickMavromatis Nice, dude. Yeah, Serum is great. Based on this vid, I messed around and made a big saw wave type joint to layer in with the guitars and it sounds awesome. Thanks for the inspiration, man! But yeah, everyone should totally upvote that comment so you can do a tutorial vid haha Cheers!
@@NickMavromatis 16 true cores? Like, not 8 and 8 threads? And if you don't mind, what is the processor model? (You don't have to answer if you don't like)
@NickMavromatis yes it does...look man I'm not being a hater but facts are facts. For instance a mono saw bass and a stereo saw bass sits veeeery differently in a mix and the same goes for majority of the sounds. Stereo imaging is like the most important aspect in mixing.
I'm surprised that no one mentioned the music/audio is in MONO. This is just super disappointing and literally takes so much value away from this video. Please fix man!
@@jdmhbeats exactly! Strangers song for example . the ones who remember the well-forgotten old style sound will gain glory again. Not this shitty future digital metal
This is a nice video, I like the deconstruction of every single sound but I honestly HATE this sound. It sounds so muddy and sterile, no crisp cymbals, tons of synth and guitar layers, guitar sounds like it was recorded through a toaster, boring riffs, no bone chilling breakdowns, just soulless pop crap. I love old architects and some old bring me the horizon but they lost me, especially because of this sound.
Thanks. We want to see vocals and plugins tutorial
if you get 20 thumbs up on your comment I'll do a detailed episode 😍
@@NickMavromatis looking forward!
@@NickMavromatis done 😁
@@arthurslyusar2010 video is up!
@@NickMavromatis As promised. Thanks! 😊

Dude the production on the synths and vocals sounds amazing! Amazing vocals as well. Insane range🔥🔥🔥
Amazing. Looking forward to see your aproach to vocalprocessing and sounddesign.
Episode for vocal processing is up. It's Future Metal ep2
Bro I know you from October Ends! Your band is amazing and now hearing all these stems isolate makes me appreciate your work on a whole other level. Thanks for doing this video ❤
That's great to hear bro thanks so much for watching this! Be sure to check our new song tomorrow!

Her productions are off the charts! Also could be faster and be less detailed so no way around it hahah
@@NickMavromatis i really like the detail. great job on this.
Really nice choice of synth sounds
Hey I love the Drum sound, a tutorial on how to achieve rhis sound would be amazing!!! Nice music too… congrats!!
Limp Bizkit feat Tesseract on that riff sounds UNREAL 😂🧨🔥
LimperacT is great indeed
yeah man, thanks for content!!! waiting for more!!!))
More is coming soon ;)
Bravo megale...wraios. Sunexise etsi...

You’re welcome mate! Glad you found it insightful 🤘
Great sound!!! Pls man how to mix drums (vst) , we all need detailed tutorial!!!!😊😊😊
awesome that you included annisokay. they're so underrated
Annisokay have great productions and last two albums have been amazing 🖤
Really cool video! The guitars and riff also remind me of Bad Omens - The Death of peace of mind. If you listen the bad omens track at 2:41 you’ll see! Great video again!
You seem very knowledgeable and I like how none of those riffs sound like you're trying to copy someone but at the same time you're using these artists solely as inspiration. Very well done mate!
Learning to use your influences to craft your own sound is super important! Thanks for your kind words mate 🖤

love the video man!
Glad you enjoyed it bro!
please show us how all the sounds were made!!! great video!!!!
Which ones in particular? Can't do a tutorial for all of them. If you're interested about the vocals, I just uploaded a new video about them!
@@NickMavromatis maybe drums and guitars if possible!
So cool, just what I was looking for! Really wanna learn your approach in designing those gtr synths
I uploaded a couple videos on synths if you wanna have a look!
Please on episode two make sure you are recording the DAW in Stereo, the sound here was in MONO, cool video though!
Episode two is already recorded in MONO but will make sure to record on Strereo after that hahah
You got cool tones and the final song sounds sick. But instead of just playing the sounds, can you give some more insight into how you got them? Which guitars? Which amps? Which cabs? What's your bus processing? How do you keep the drums punchy? And so on. There's a lot left unsaid still.

07:54 song name is ANNISOKAY - Time
Nice job!
Thank you!
This epic! I’m craving for a walkthrough of the rest of the song! 🤤
Coming in three days bro! Subscribe and a hit the bell to get the thing 😝
this is the exact type of content i was looking for thanks a whole fuckin lot
Just out of curiosity, what’s that exactly? And thanks for your kind words man 🙏🏻 Would love you hear what you think of my band!

think the comment got bugged ( didnt even realize )
Love your band been a fan since a couple of months ago
Thanks for this amazing video!Very useful! I wonder why the video is in mono ..
Thank you very much mate. I didn’t know the audio recording software I used could only record in mono so it was too late after I made the video:(
i almost shit my pants on the intro... and so did the cat chilling on my bed
Please make a tutorial about the vox pad

Are those guitars in the demos real amps or simulators?
The amps are vst amps
The music playback from your DAW was almost exclusively in mono during the video. Would've been nice to hear it in stereo when you were going through the guitars, guitars+bass, and the drums.
Nice walkthrough, though!
It was mono all the time. I need to find another audio recording software for my computer
I want to make some music like this! Would love to get in contact with you to discuss getting a track that I could hop on! Let me know!
Will you do a tutorial on what guitar synths you used and how to get those tones?
I uploaded two videos on these kind synths. You can check em out in my channel. You'll see "synths" on the title
Sick video dude what tuning are you using and any recommendations for octavor plugins.
All my favorite live bands! :😀
mine too 😍
Maybe an episode 2 with I prevail and falling in reverse. I think it will be great because those groups are mixed by the same guy Tyler smyth.
Episode 2 is coming tomorrow!
Bmth made this unusual song that sounds so different and epic, please can you do a video on how to recreate the sound, I think there using a bass and an 8 string but I’m not 100% sure the video is bmth made a new song post human 2 part three!!!!
Sounds to me like Happy Song by BMTH!

Is it artchtects kit by ggd?
What are you using for the acoustic drums man ?
I would very much like to know how do you make those synths, was it Serum/Omnisphere?
I uploaded two videos about this topic on my channel. The include "Synths" on the title!
Would love to know your drum samples/ processing! I can tell it’s GGD modern and massive cymbals, but what for shells?
Wow you have a good ear mate. The cymbals are indeed GGD modern and massive although I wasn't very happy with them. I switched after this album. Rest of the samples are blends of different libraries. Some are Superior Drummer, some are Native Instruments and some are GGD Matt Halpern / modern and massive.
@@NickMavromatis would love a video on that kick sound! Very zakk cervini style
what vocal chain was used to record the vocals? (microphone, compressor, pre amp etc)
I made a video about this. Future Metal ep2!
Hello mate! Sounds sick! Please tell me what drum room was used for this track. Thankx a lot!
А почему гитары в моно?
"I'm gonna show you how to do it but not actually show you anything."
Amazing, thanks for sharing your work. Pls make a tutorial, would mean the world too me ❤️
You’re welcome mate! All you gotta do to support me is go and stream my band’s new album 😌 What would you like the tutorial to be for?

what are the drums ? sick !
Real or electronic ones?
@@NickMavromatis live
Just a quick question... What processor does your CPU have? That's an insanely powerful setup you have. Crazy amount of tracks
It has 16 cores hahah
@@NickMavromatis 16 true cores? Like, not 8 and 8 threads? And if you don't mind, what is the processor model? (You don't have to answer if you don't like)
What is your main monitoring? The eve or the headphones?
When I mix I use the eves
I was excited for the video but the audio is mono. Kinda defeats the purpose of the breakdown
@@nohvembr4555 does not but ok 😂
@NickMavromatis yes it does...look man I'm not being a hater but facts are facts. For instance a mono saw bass and a stereo saw bass sits veeeery differently in a mix and the same goes for majority of the sounds. Stereo imaging is like the most important aspect in mixing.
Future Metal from 2007
Did you even listen to the song Of Stars from October Ends? It sounds like a song from 2023
I'm surprised that no one mentioned the music/audio is in MONO. This is just super disappointing and literally takes so much value away from this video. Please fix man!
16:07 - possibly the worst guitar production I have heard in my life. Sounds like it was played through a badly tuned FM radio 🤣
Why in mono? So boring.
No need to watch it then. Also this song is out so you can go listen to it in stereao.
Song sounded cool, you sounded bored, and so I got bored.
≋p≋r≋o≋m≋o≋s≋m 😳
future metal sucks. they have to go back to 2007's sound!
Can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not
BMTH are goin back to 2007 in their new shit by the sounds of it 🔥
