Melodic Techno Chords You Need | Playing Percussive Chords

Hi KZbin, today we will get into some melodic techno chords you need to add in order for your groove to enhance. When you play chords, keep in mind that it shouldn't be to complicated. The placement is as much important as the stucture of the chords. And since the goal is to make people dance more than the listen, Your melodic techno chords need to be programmed smartly. Here's how I do it. Enjoy!
Thanks for watching and keep your eyes on this space.

Dawless Analog Music theory lessons. Let's go.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Ow yes!

[@davegrg123]

Awesome video. I’d love to see more of these about the music theory and composition. Thanks a lot

More to come! Glad you like it Dave. And noted.It's a nice topic to go in deeper indeed

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thanks for watching

[@jimmywheelo]

Thankyou for your work 💪

[@AnalogKitchen]

My pleasure!

[@warpigs330]

Been really enjoying the channel. I love hearing people discuss why they make the decisions they do when making music.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Glad you like it! I myself have always learned more from a process than just random tips and tricks. I think there are enough channels out there that do that already.

[@daniellorenzi5251]

Very nice!

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thanks

[@richtrelo]

Another great video! Love the groove with the 303. It would be awesome to see how you programme the 303.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Noted! Thanks for watching!

[@cenapturgut]

Looking forward

[@AnalogKitchen]

🙏🏾

[@avrilcadabra]

Good work, I tend towards long chords and melodic, I will try some more percussive stuff.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Hey Avril. Keep in mind that with opening the release you will be able to maintain those long chords. You could use that for dramatic drops and come back with rhythm chords on the beat!

[@kleshtre]

Thx for a new Workshop..👍 This Track sounds great and i‘ll try to recreat it.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thanks for watching! Let us know how you get on

[@kleshtre]

Correct me, but it is not possible without an MPC or DAW because i can only program 32 steps? So the bass line will be to short. I have an additional roland jp8000 in the setup now, but it seems there is the same thing. But it's still big fun..

[@coyote-wang]

I can't wait to see your new mixer

[@AnalogKitchen]

It’s going to be amazing brother. Will be something we need

[@verasuhova3876]

really cool

what a legend

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thank you!!

[@riccardotorri8648]

I definitely love your channel. I learned a little bit of electronic music during the lockdown, I have bought some gear (in a very confusing way) but now I have my personal guru. one year ago I was playing procol harum tunes on my piano 😅

[@AnalogKitchen]

Well welcome to ‘A Darker Shade Of Techno’ Riccardo. Thanks for watching! When you run into things, just hollar

[@riccardotorri8648]

@@AnalogKitchen I'm trying to go deep into my gear to understand what I really need and what sounds I need to create cool ipnotyc sequences. coping your gear is too easy ;-)

[@AnalogKitchen]

@@riccardotorri8648 I also copy pasted when I started brother. The fact you have the same gear won’t mean you make the same music. Just give yourself a ballpark from where to start and elevate from there

[@riccardotorri8648]

@@AnalogKitchen thank you! now I'm learning how to go deep in my instrument and to understand what I really need and what is just GAS ;-) I'm a little bit afraid of instruments that are too easy in producing music. probably something rough but fully programmed/played is giving me more satisfaction.

[@py_a_thon]

Timestamp 9:00 to 9:30 sounds awesome with that pitch shifting and the staccato arp. For reals. You are legit getting so much better(and this was chill trance and techno to begin with) They do say: you only finally understand something when you attempt to teach people. You might find some next level sound soon if you keep looking tho. I would mess with that.pitch shift for a good 32 bars lol. Octave up, octave down. 5ths or 7ths if they fit.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Hey brother! Thanks for watching! Yes progress brother! We’re going!!

[@py_a_thon]

@@AnalogKitchen I think I forgot in one of the other videos to leave a comment: but that Juno synthesizer keyboard you used was sounding amazing too. Wow. What a phenomenal keyboard. Great music though as always. Have a great 2021.

[@SLEEP-236]

I honestly can't thank you enough for sharing these techniques. I was a complete novice 6 months ago but think I could handle an hour long live set after watching you. I'd really like to learn how to make psychedelic FX and ways of incorporating into a track, any chance of a video on that?

[@AnalogKitchen]

It’s something that is on the shelf for future vids indeed. Glad it’s helpful! If you want to hit me up personally consider Patreon. There I share the sounds and techniques

[@SLEEP-236]

Of all the KZbinrs I watch you are probably the most deserving so I'll hit you up next payday👍👽

[@HorrorWorldx]

Have you tried using granular effects or hardware?

[@PeterCoyleCoaching]

I only use Ableton but I love watching your videos so much dude

[@AnalogKitchen]

Great to hear! I think much can be applied to a daw too. What have you learned that you’ve applied?

[@riccardotorri]

Ok, you are my teacher now.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Welcome my young apprentice. Strong the force with you is, powerful your beats will be!!

[@riccardotorri]

@@AnalogKitchen I have a lack of force nowadays ;-)

New subscriber! Good stuff. If you could say the notes you are playing a bit it would help me please as small screen and mostly listening to audio track. Thanks!

I will take that with me! Thanks for being here!

[@koolvapes8099]

Again thanks for this great video.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thanks for viewing vapes!

[@py_a_thon]

"Should we add the 303?" The answer I think is: "lol, what a silly question" Edit: that is like saying: "We have this downtempo hip hop track...should we add the 808's or live jazz drummers playing hip hop beats?" Both are perfect and epic.

[@AnalogKitchen]

hahaha! Indeed. More 303 please!!

[@py_a_thon]

@@AnalogKitchen Yeah lol, if the electric guitar is a 20th century achievment, the 303 sound is too. Always epic. I didn't pay attention too well, are you using a legit 303 now or still the tb-03? Both sound awesome(in fact the tb-03 might be better for house and atmospheric styles). I was just interested which one you used for this newer era melodic techno throwback sound.

[@AnalogKitchen]

@@py_a_thon I’m so fakin it. It’s a TB03. Great Box however, it took me some time to find the sweet spots. It behaves slightly differently. Thanks for watching bro

[@py_a_thon]

@@AnalogKitchen Right on, I thought maybe you just borrowed an original303 for the video. I probably can't tell the difference between the tb03 and a 303, they both sound iconic anyways.

[@DaBeatsFreak]

Awesome🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾, but that looks Cmin to me though.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Right!! But transposed haha

[@tzodearf2596]

When the hats came on I anticipated a techno Theme to Shaft wah wah guitar intro. I liked your use of the piano and rhythm. But the beat needs a simple melodic hook sung over it. Something that's easy to hum, whistle, and remember. Otherwise, it sounds like EDM, four on the floor and a swarm of synths. EDM has some good music but it's ironically rhythmically unchallenging for people who are rhythmically challenged. In other words, EDM is for people who can't dance.

[@AnalogKitchen]

Good suggestions I admit. I just do what feels naturally to me and roll with it most times. And when it works, I’ll run it

[@xFlyingFlip]

Uhmazing

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thanks for checking and welcome!

[@gminorcoles]

By your example I bought a zoom L20 to record sets without having to turn on the computer.

[@AnalogKitchen]

How do you like it?

[@gminorcoles]

@@AnalogKitchen it is great. I am feeding it the direct outs of my soundcraft 16 channel mixer. I have unplugged my motu AVB interfaces as a result and only use the l20 to get stems into my DAW after I jam, if they are good

[@AnalogKitchen]

@@gminorcoles just don’t run your levels too hot. I’ve found that it saturates the sound easily if you kick it’s butt

[@gminorcoles]

@@AnalogKitchen yes it seems like a piece of equipment that shouldn't be pushed too hard - a lot of features for the money though

[@givdb5513]

1:25 if you want to jump self-promotion 1:54 if you want t go directly to the point

[@eidame1767]

Talk more, play less if you want to teach us anything. Great videos anyway!

[@AnalogKitchen]

Thank you for watching

[@andres.giacomini]

I like your channel, but I incredibly hate the background music, it's too loud and I'm not an expert in English and it's harder for me to understand.

[@AnalogKitchen]

I’ll see what I can do about that. Thanks for pointing it out

[@szeredaiakos]

analog is overrated

[@AnalogKitchen]

Not if you actually know what you’re doing

[@szeredaiakos]

​@@AnalogKitchen That's the point, once you know what you are doing, analog is ... well just overrated. It has it's place, tho.
