Freddie Joachim is truly the Bob Ross of lo-fi beatmaking. His voice is so soothing his explanation being crisp and clear.

[@darrelloike]

You need an Afro to be the bob ross of anything

[@TheSoulPapi]

@@darrelloike To quote the classic movie "Dumb and Dumber".... so you're saying there's a chance?! lol

[@forwardmoving8252]

Most of his stuff is not lofi

[@lihaoedian8007]

When i started learning ableton I was worried about tutorials, cause there were so many FL guys on KZbin, but with these Series, Ableton keep it up and we want more. 🙌🏻

[@Drums1696]

Maybe the Best in-depth, yet simple tutorial on building a song in Live I've seen, and explaining the details of each click and move is very helpful. Perfect.

Tried and true methods. It's crazy to come back to another Freddie J breakdown 10 years later and see the same basic techniques still turning out magic. Legendary. Freddie Joachim, Eric Lau, and 9th Wonder made me.

Keep pushing these, really helpful! 🎶

[@matthewmouras2275]

Some really good stuff in here. Seeing his methodology and the specifics of how he uses Simpler and Drum Racks is really helpful. I've been using Live for years, but still learned some things.
