Hi Internet!
Today we're looking at a couple of tips and tricks for creating Breaks / Breakdowns / Glitches / Buildups, everything from the more structured buildups to the crazier glitchy breaks
My camera was acting strange, apologies for the laggy video in the intro

Arrangements - Drops and Builds #3 - Creating Psytrance Breaks / Breakdowns / Glitches / Buildups

[@NeonPLotus]

We still need a tutorial on stingers and impacts, though

[@trance081620081]

I am astonished. It was a build-up of the kick that made a request from a comment the other day. Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

[@axionofficial6666]

Great video! All these little bells and whistles are what add interest to a track and really bring it to life. Thanks for sharing!

[@godash1279]

thanks a lot!! Plz post more videos about arrangements!!

[@athamz9872]

For the ableton guys you can do something similar in session view randomizing how the clips change or maybe throw the loops in samplers in a drum rack and use an arpeggiator to change between them, may random max lfo tool on the arpeggiator speed or repeat. Gr8 work as always!

[@psypolux]

After many videos about psytrance production, i can say ur videos gave me the best tips and explanation about psytrance, very professional and weel explained

Another brilliant video 👌

[@Oberjin]

this is literally EXACTLY what i need right now! I struggle to put together songs with nice breaks and such, in my opinion it works like glue, so that u dont have a broken down bland song. THANK YOU

[@Roberto-ww3lm]

Tus vídeos simplemente son lo mejor que he visto en todo KZbin. He aprendido mucho gracias a ti 🙏

[@maxlnd6601]

Honestly your best video dash, great explanation and sounds amazing man !

[@geometrykdsr457]

Brow, I just wanted to say that I´ve been watching your tutorials one by one and several times, and they really work for me, I´ve done several tracks using ur technics and they sound really great. Thanx for sharing ur knowledge. Greetings from Mexico.

[@Annabel.music.official]

[@LindaMissad]

Thank you! Trying to learn this --- you really make it helpful

[@seriks82]

your videos are amazing! thank you so much. Love your album on Spotify!

[@fasteddie5246]

Another great video sir! I really enjoy your videos, you cover a lot of good aspects of Psytrance production, and the fact that you have continued to produce instructional videos specific to the psytrance genre is really, really hugely appreciated by myself and many others. Your consistently well produced tutorials provide high quality production instruction, and by continuing to create new content specific to the genre your channel is unique in offering such a broad range of techniques covered in great detail. That is awesome and is a great gift and service to would be producers and really, to the psytrance community as a whole. So in all sincerity thank you for all the time, effort and passion you continue to share with so many. Over the past year I have noticed your productions go from good to ... pretty damn amazing. The video you did on Thorn... I remember saying whhhhaaaat? thaaaat's baaaad ass, and this video is pretty damn awe inspiring as well. Thanks again, -Eddie

[@merlinperlin]

Dude awesome!!!

[@DennisShinkevich]

Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuper!

You deserve more Subs bro!! Awesome work!

[@Ryan.Anderson80]

That sounds quality dude. I struggle with the fills and this vid did well to explain the transitions.

[@DashGlitch]

Thanks, hopefully this helps!

[@waynesilverman3048]

@@DashGlitch is the glitch the same as skelches?also i find granular delays good to make skelches

[@BappinProductions]

So happy I have Cubase again, I forgot how awesome Loopmash and LoopmashFX are. I'm going to have heaps of fun making bonkers lead sequences with multiple variations of patterns and patches, getting all mashed and glitched together!

[@burgersandbingo8918]

I found amazing channel about music like this. I subscribed! You are great artist :D

[@20710348]

Nice man!

[@simonjdundas]

Extremely helpful. Thanks a million. Been listening to dubstep recently and be great to see you create some of that craziness using Cubase plugins. . I guess it overlaps lot. Cheers

[@looply_music]

very very good video :) Thanks a lot. this is like gold

[@JustaFeed]

luv it

[@simonjdundas]

just found when creating snare riser in sampler track and copy/slipping the notes to double the tempo there's an opportunity to move the slipped notes say up a tone so snares alternate in pitch for interest.

[@profet1385]

I like how the camera shakes when you're listening to what you've made in 16:40 :D

[@EdgeOfPanic]

For users of other DAW's Glitch2 is a very good replacement for loopmash.

[@darkpsy9325]

ure the best

[@Ecofriendlyone]

super....

[@20710348]

Where do these atmospheric sounds come from? They're absolutely stunning!

[@DashGlitch]

Thanks man! I think it's a serum patch, with the Reverb on 100% :D

My trance production skills are 0 percent. Nice concept that can be used for any genre.

top track bud can you get lopmash 2 on fl12

[@zygican]

Just wondering if you could do an arrangement video for intros? :)

[@HalfGodHalfBeast]

at 14:15 you seemed to speed through what you'd just said you'd show us, lol

[@pcgamesgameplay5614]

love your videos Dash ! please stop saying "sooo" so often :D greets!!!

[@adlyinc.7912]

Gross beat on FL can do what loopbash did or whatever but with less options ( i belive on the stutter avaible not with the pitch bending combined ) it's one at the time

[@keithlane4705]

Looks to me like stutter edit by iZotope could replace Loopmash for the non cubase peeps out there

[@BappinProductions]

Also Beat Repeat in Live or VPS Glitch Bitch, Sugar Bytes Artillery/Turnado/Effectrix/Looperator, dBlue Glitch2 and the Glitch Machines plugins!

[@Pierre.parisot97]

@@BappinProductions How do you do It? :)

[@BappinProductions]

@@Pierre.parisot97 I use Bom Shanka Machines chrisGlitch now. It's super affordable and very easy to use. I have it saved in a Rack with some useful knobs mapped to macros. I slap it on whatever channels, then record the audio while I tweak the knobs. I'll pick the best loops/motifs to use in the track.

My cubase does other things when i rightclick. What do you have on rightclick? :)

Try CTrl+ RC you can disable that in the menu

[@jameskane5151]

Mate I really appreciate your tutorials, but everytime I watch theres a new (expensive) plugin that I have to buy to follow along and get the same result. I tried using some other free plugins but I wasn't able to get the same effect. I understand you want to use whatever tools necessary to get the best quality sound but please keep in mind that your audience can't always afford it. Cheers

[@andre4768]

Hey Dash, your videos have been helping me so much, Can you please do a video on the Morten Granau sound please? I like just about evrything about his work but my favorite is his collaboration with Day.Din - Children Of Men m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4Gwh42ghMiGZ7s Much appreciated

[@alphanumeric1529]

My God Bro! I thought I had ADHD... You got it BAD! You either had to pick your kids up from school, so had a HARD deadline by which to finish this video, or you found a kilo of go fast in the gutter, and indulged unrestrainedly? Jimmeny Crickets. Not even one second to even hear the results of the events you created, soloed, or just within the group, or even within the context of the full track stack. Maybe it is the genre? It attracts the meth zeds, or the naturally fidgety? Each time, after all the work and slap dash explanations as you PLOWED forward, never even giving us a chance to get a visual orientation of what we were seeing, like what even each of the surrounding tracks were from the larger song, let alone within even the context of the event/fx you were building, even among the components of the event itself. LIke, was every element red? A go fast color! The loop masher! Never even heard the output of that device/process, individually, within a group or within, again, the full track stack! Maybe I could watch this on 0.5 speed! But then you don't even give us a chance to hear what you've done. Like you illustrate what you're doing, and then when you've completed all of the tasks to make the event, you move on without even playing the event! Haha. Granted, I'm tired, and I think all the kissing the wife has gotten me the usual September cold, so, okay, I'm groggy and spaced out... But still mate! Is it for your audience? I hear from almost every YT channel, across genres, that 90 percent of their viewers leave within 30 seconds of the video. Let me tell you something, and this is totally serious, I was serious above, but jesting a bit, but this is totally serious. YT TOTALLY FUX with your watch time. LIke I'll watch a 60 minute video about a topic, and YT just tries to jam videos you've already watched down your throat, rather than recommending new videos about the subject or tangentially releated, no those days are over, just watch the same damn 3 videos over and over. Amazing how they've turned this amazing educational platform to shiz. Probably for the sugar fueled, food additive attention destroying chemical sloshed 8 year olds that seem to make up the actual bulk of the views on YT... like the shizest video of some wasteman with a rented lambo and a rented siliconized former human in a g string bikini gets 250 million views, and every contentless video from the same, and all 80,000 clones of the wasteman and his wastechannel each get an additional 250 million views... so if your video doesn't have paps quavering unrestrained by a tissue paper thin bikini top, 8 sizes too small for the bowling ball augmented chest kitten former human within the first four seconds, the 8 year olds are OUT... BUT I'm certain YT fuxes with your watch time... I'll watch a 60 minute video, from beginning to end, straight through, and then the same video will be among all the other videos that I've already watched but YT regurgitates as recommended videos for me, and all these videos will have the beginning of a little red bar in the bottom left hand corner, representing that I've only watched the first few minutes or seconds of the video... but its a damn lie, I've watched each of the videos, start to finish. Now why is YT doing this, as YT rarely makes errors... you use the wrong word in a comment, like if that word is an ordinary word like drome, but without one of the bumps on the M, but you're just talking about the musical concept of a sound that is infinitely evolving but always remaining the same, but because the cinquo oh hos are using deadly dromes to ramp up mm3, but with the m's upside down, to initiate a glopal nook, bio, kehmicaal catastrophy, necessitating even more centrallized and technocrateck control over the remaining world poopulaton, over every aspect of their lives, giving a central elite with the power of total data and infinitly iterated Aye Eyes total control over everything... so if you use that word drome, even you're talking about music, and not mar, where the m is upside down, buam, your comment cannot be posted. This is just one example of YT being in total control of their platform, control over every single comment on the most obscure and unwatched video. SO THEYDON'T MAKE MISTAKES. EVERYTHING IS DESIGNED, CODED TO WORK THE WAY IT DOES. SO, why do they folsely misrepresent your video's watch time data? FIRST, I think they're creating false statistics for you content makers, not just to rip you off, to devalue you and your channel and to cheat you out of your compensation for the advertising they force onto your videos... that's part of it, sure, but really I think they are doing it to give you the false impression that you need to speed up your videos, make a bigger impact, make more lowest common denominator videos, basically forcing you to make drek videos, so that they can diminish the actual information sharing on the platform, diminish people's access to powerful truth. But your viewers aren't brain dead zombies who click off after a few moments of your vidoes, THEY IN FACT are watching the whole thing, every second of your video, for each video, though maybe they skip midroll add reads... lol. But your viewers are watching the entirety if not the overwhelming majority of each of your videos. I know YT is giving you the impression that your viewers just click away after a few moments. I know this. It is not true. Do not dumb down your videos, do not make them shorter, simpler, etc. Yeah, no excuse not to structure and streamline your video content, of course, that goes without saying, that is just good communications. If you are a viewer of Dash, let him, and all the other channels that you watch know that you watch their videos all the way through, if you do, and encourage others/friends to tell their favorite content creators that they watch all the way through, if they do, so content creators have access to the truth, not fabricated statistics designed to destroy the quality of all of the content on YT, basically to turn it back into TV with 4 channels of very controlled programming... PROGRAMMING! Then SECOND, I do think it is a simple money scam to reduce your revenue share from the valuable content you create and essentially give to YT for free, creating mad value for YT, and their lord, AlphaBeazzel, charging advertisers huge rates, but giving millionths of pennies to those who create ALL OF THE VALUE that YT has to offer. I'm sure it's not just me who'll watch an hour long video, a two hour long video, a four hour long video, and heck... I might even watch some again, just to retain some more information, but still, just a tiny little red tab in the bottom left of the video's thumbnail, meaning I've already watched the video, but YT only counted the first few seconds or minutes.... They are deceivers! First and Foremost. They deceive everyone to control everyone, so they're not doing evil, you are. But that itself is the worst evil. SORRY THIS COMMENT GOT SERIOUS. My apologies. I'll get back to goofing. NICE SOUL PATCH DUDE!

[@DashGlitch]

It's a lot of information to squeeze into 30 minutes, with all those extra examples the video would be over an hour, I figured most of the time the explanations were simple enough. I haven't been diagnosed but you will be surprised how many youtubers are neurodivergent, it takes a very special type of mind to deal with this stuff, both the technical and having nuclear grade patience. I just skimmed over the comment I think there's some truth to it, but not for me because I don't monetize so there is no revenue from this platform for me or for KZbin CEO, who isn't Bezos (not sure if that's what you meant haha) anyway thanks for watching and the very in-depth comment
