The Simplest Strategy for Building House Songs (it's like cheating)

[@Baywood]

Alex rome so goated. I've been doing his 1 on 1 coaching mentorship and let me tell you... he's helped me create a whole new sound unique to me.. THANK YOU ALEX!!! I love working with you

[@mufcmusic8514]

Sure you'll get a discount for that comment lol. Big up

[@rev3789]

Brooooo! That first synth sound and the pluck is 1000000000% Deadmau5

[@Avisioninside]

Literally strobe deadmau5 era

[@Bthelick]

just add unison to a saw wave, turn down the detune, and send a plucky envelope to the filter. done. (oh you'll need a lil delay and reverb) trust me that's it!

[@BaggyPop]

@@Bthelicki can hear it

[@drey7459]

Absolute quality tutotial. It's short, it's minimalistic yet detailed and the sounds aswell as the composition is just pure emotion. Thank you for your service

[@itstrenttv]

"its like heaven!" haha wish i could mix with this guy such good character energy

[@Adsterr]

its Heavinly presence.

[@NoriusNr1]

sounds so much like: sleepless - avaion, when the melody hits. Which is amazing and has an amazing feel. Great work, you are very inspiring

[@micahpediford]

Yessss!!! Such a good song

[@44tmr]

3:55 - For what it's worth, he literally says "I'm going to copy the rhythm from my favorite song right now, it's called Sleepless" and shows the album art for it.

[@coreycolwell7786]

Wow! This is incredible. Seriously, I have playlists dedicated to music production and this is top 5 over all the years. Kudos to you brother. Thank you!

[@professorchaos2000]

can i have the playlist? 😅

[@JimJuno]

I wouldn't mind having a link for that too ✌️

[@asherwilliams]

It's so wholesome how excited Alex gets when listening to what he just added. It's just some simple serum soundwaves put together yet it actually moves me to tears when I hear it. Beautiful work.

[@BexoBeats]

You just casually make the best songs in every video😆 really helpfull💪

[@TraxtasyMedia]

No he just indirectly shows how deadmau5 music works😂

[@josealejandrogarciarojas1115]

@@TraxtasyMedia Fr hahaha

[@whitelikesnowfall]

​@@TraxtasyMediathere are a lot of artists like that, but deadmau5 is most famous out of them all... What I mean to say is, he's not showing how deadmau5 songs work... He's showing how classic EDM house music works :)

[@TraxtasyMedia]

@@whitelikesnowfall kind of, but deadmau5 up to this day likes to implement an analog flavor to his tunes and the way these synths are build up is also the way deadmau5 makes his sounds most of the time. Name one artist that has the exact same synthsounds like deadmau5. I don't want to start an argument whether this reflects EDM or deadmau5 specifically but, this was the first thing popping into my mind and yes every artist uses synths like Serum. And I found no one to a certain extent that sounds like this.

[@whitelikesnowfall]

@@TraxtasyMedia it's hard to find exact same sounds from other artists... Because everyone has their unique style... What I meant is that classic EDM house music uses a lot of these similar sounds and techniques and why not... They work well... Just like we see in this video, that song sounds really cool (to me)

[@East_of_Hightower]

Back after a couple of years. Earlier videos helped get me started. Now I’m looking to develop what I’ve learned. Thanks for the tips. 👍🏽👍🏽

[@danishsacicant]

Bro I’m really speechless 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Congratulations man

[@producedbynase]

I don't wait for bell notifications... I come back to rewatch and keep learning... you're of positive great impact to us the upcoming home producers Sir... God bless you

[@francisoboh4683]

Beautiful video Alex! Keep up the great work ❤. Sounds like a Rüfüs Du Sol inspired track

[@Samueljohnhorne1984]

Dope video man. Very helpful. Especially liked the part where you added the atmospheric layers to the low energy section at the start 😊

[@lizardddd235]

I love this genre of music and know a lot of songs which have this style, and from your composition can be seen your skills and experience. Great job and thank you!

[@AmBouttaKhoum]

you can shift + up/down arrow instead of dragging the notes to instantly move them up/down in the MIDI (in ableton)

[@ALindaBlox]

Thanks bro!!! i get so much into the mood of making music when i listen to your videos!

[@HaloReach242]

Thanks for making these videos look so easy, always inspires me to make my own music.

[@HVYCHKNRADIO]

Quality arrangement, using a simple design strategy. I liked the balance didnt sound cluttered or overworked.

[@MrBrownAlliance]

[@NaejMusic]

Alex your tutorial and explanation are simply amazing...thank you so much 💙

[@nickpurdy69]

I am just starting in the music world and that percussion part looks intimidating but it sounded awesome

[@theGwydionn]

bro, I'll be straight honest, I wasn't fully engaged until 11:15 when you dropped in. right there I was like yup, time to subscribe

[@zenoaltea7512]

This works like a charm, thanks Alex!

[@andresfernandez2032]

FL Studio user lets go Alex our best music teacher!!!

[@TraxtasyMedia]

Who cares about the DAW? THE OUTCOME counts, DAWS are for creating music and sound but not what outcome is the result. The end-user is mostly not interested in what DAW someone used during production. The result counts.

[@andresfernandez2032]

9:52 I didn't like the final result but the drums bro, they are awesome, what a rhythm I love it, I might take some inspiration from that, I wish you went over them a bit more in details :)

[@vacation_generation]

Brilliant

[@mrt2760]

Great beat that Alex, has the funk!

[@tidywats257]

Your skills combined with your passion make you one helluva good teacher Maestro. Your songs all do have a bit of an airy, melodic sound to them which is cool but not necessarily gonna get the dancefloor jumping at 3am. Would be interesting to see you create something a little dirtier. Some filthy techy Kyle Watson kinda style.

[@afungangmusic]

Alex!!!!!!!! You god, you 🖤🖤

[@GodgyPodgy]

YOU ARE KING!!!!!

[@mufcmusic8514]

Nice work re

[@RyanYoung-br1iz]

love when you post

[@Bsimracingnews]

You just blew my mind here. Great.

[@Munny_music]

haha no way, as soon as you played the first chord I thought I recognised it & then played sleepless to see if it matched... then u said it was ur fav song 😂

[@loriswlf]

What a great and practical tutorial!! Thank you

[@derdunzen]

Heard it immediately, your song sounds like "AVAION, Nu Aspect - Sleepless" :D

[@AlexRome]

yup! I actually made this by remaking sleepless first. I love the drums and melody. Then I just re-arranged the melody into something different.

[@554LH]

Very straightforward instructions, thank you

Very Nice , Reminds me of Rufus du sol tracks

[@movemint_official]

Nice strategy brother! Interesting 👏💯

[@Bthelick]

Surely the "simplest stategy" is go to splice, pick a genre, pick a key and combine a drum loop , bass loop, chord stab and vocal in the same key? done!

[@nertilavretodanielmustafa]

You are the best Alex 👍👍

[@djceddy6945]

[@MrPulgahh]

Hey man. Love your videos, you should do a video recreating daft punk. Maybe veridis quo or anything you can create that sounds similar to daft punks style outside the sampling style. I’d really appreciate that ❤

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Have you switched to Ableton Alex?

[@VentureNW]

😂 Alex often uses Logic, Live, and FL

[@TraxtasyMedia]

Knowing and using many DAWS as a person who is into mixing and mastering make things much easier for clients, so they can send in their projects without having them to switch the DAW or just exporting WAV files

[@VentureNW]

@@TraxtasyMedia Completely agree. It is also useful in teaching

[@BeatsbyVanity]

@@VentureNW Interesting, I must have never landed on an Ableton video

[@VentureNW]

@@BeatsbyVanity he's been mixing them up for as long as I have watched him. Sometimes it hurts my brain, when he uses FL. Lol

From a conpositional background, a root n third, or 3rd and fifth have tonal characteristic of a chord. They are an interval, too.
