FINNEAS | On Finding Sounds & Breaking Down "Can't Wait to Be Dead"

[@himangshudeka10]

Finneas is the reason that so many of us home producers can dream that we can get to his level too. Love Finneas.

[@skierz1363]

Frrr

[@Nicthestick]

Very true, He is definitely one of my favourite producers

[@FPHBEATZ]

For real bro

[@singularmile]

FOR REAL such an inspiration to me

[@andreabrantes]

So true man

[@hannahwolfgang3851]

It's so cool to see how he produces and what's going through his head, Finneas never fails to make a bop.

[@RedImaginationbyGG]

I second that!

[@victoriasmith212]

It's crazy how talented and hardworking Finneas is. He's definitely inspired so many people with his art and brought so many people together. Just great to see how his brain works when it comes to music too!

[@hotpotatapie]

'As a song writer, if you can express things that someone can't express for themselves, that is a powerful thing to do for somebody' Amen

[@akhileshnair13]

One of the best producers out there. He and billie reinvented a genre, what an inspiration

[@pryor4x898]

Nahh Lorde and Joel little did

[@KikiFox]

somehow, whenever i'm feeling most down on myself and on the verge of giving up, a new finneas video pops up and he says just what i need to hear to keep going. this man never fails to remind me why i started creating in the first place. we truly do not deserve him

[@leticiabueno5248]

I am so happy to hear him saying ''there's a lot of reasons I love my life''

[@snowmonkey1]

He had to say that in case he ever ticks off the mafia. "Guys I would never delete myself"

[@fumio9867]

The amount of effort put into that song and then the simplicity of it when it's done is just crazy

[@crackingskulls]

I’ve been recording my own songs playing all the instruments in a home studio since the 90’s. Finneas is an inspiration.

[@asunnyday3749]

This is like a free expert class. Thank you internet

[@ankushjadhav4475]

that's the good comment right here

[@datutturugang666]

maybe, not everyone knows that Finneas uses Logic Pro as a DAW. i use it too, and i agree 101% with him about the fact that you can produce just with a laptop and nothing else (maybe some good headphones tho)

[@joycebosman526]

Imma come back to this video whenever I feel unmotivated, Cause this really just motivated me so much!

[@JessieDesai]

what an inspiration for young songwriters and producers 🙏🏻🔥

[@rajshreepardeshi_]

Finneas is just INSANELY TALENTED AND HE DESERVES THE WORLD!! His production is just IMMACULATE!! I LOVE YOU SM FINNEAS!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@nicoxniner5839]

he so talented and is so young like HOWWWW

[@Mefistofy]

Sketch Cassete, best plugin. Use it mostly as nice drum bus coloration/compression. Works great and is cheap.

[@Fyuesiy]

killer plugin ill have to check it out

[@lucasmarchetti3435]

The best producer and songwriter at the moment

[@georgehornsby6882]

no

[@Kornhulio18]

Maybe for the young, watered-down, cringe generation

[@vivekchavanmusic]

@@Kornhulio18 Who is the best producer and songwriter according to you?

[@kwiebus24]

@@Kornhulio18 ok grandpa

[@kennyjohnson8770]

Sketch Cassette is so so good

[@Billieeilishv]

LOVE YOU FINNEAS *

[@kc0mwl]

He's the best

[@ameliamarczenia8237]

He’s so inspirational to me he’s the reason why i make what i love and he shows me that if i like what i do that’s the most important

[@nniklask]

This song shows exactly why he is Billies producer and brother, both make unique songs but they are similar in some really small parts but also so different

[@uglydog7389]

They definitely compliment each other very well

[@Jamestaylor01967]

You can see how much he loves production. Like the way he talks about it just conveys his enjoyment

[@gedpictures2487]

Finneas rlly is goated, sooo inspiring to me!

[@rafadecampo]

Finneas is such an inspiration and a reference in music to me. The perfect exemple on how creativity and a good sense for sounds on music can make the bests records ever

[@gabibeselmusic]

Finneas seems to have a natural knack for teaching. I really enjoyed this :)

[@AikiraBeats]

Right he can definitely be a music teacher in the future

[@jihadul6390]

@@AikiraBeats yeah dude, im just hoping that he and billie will make a music school or smth

[@AlOne-xg6dv]

He is dedicated to sharing his passion and his experiences.

[@user-vv7og1gt7t]

This is so interesting learning about how music can be played on a computer. I know nothing about how to play music, so this is very much a lesson in music. FINNEAS is absolutely the best.

[@xTechnoWOW]

Can’t get enough of FINNEAS!

[@MattShockley]

"minimal but theres 75 tracks" lol

[@charlotteelenore1399]

[@milym3079]

And then there's Jacob Collier

[@zoey.music.official]

He is my biggest idol! I'm a young female producer from Switzerland and he's the reason I believe in myself ... thanks for the video, I love it! ❤️🎶"By the way, I love the song"😍

[@jomo493]

What a beautiful voice

[@dinulechek]

Such a beautiful soul.

[@AlOne-xg6dv]

Nice guy with nice words. Wherever this journey of musical creation takes us, it's worth it. Finneas is in heaven, and as a beginner i am already the head in the stars. One step at a time and the light along the way.

[@nevnightmares]

Can't wait to meet Finneas

[@o0GrayMatters0o]

[@oeunouch]

Finneas and his sister are the reason I got into music!

[@jampam2471]

FINNEAS inspire me to write music

[@giorgiabarison]

this is so inspiring, I'm in love

[@TheAtticEchoes]

To me this is the most desirable way of making music. From his humble character, All the way to the setting of his room. And the song sounds amazing 🙏 One question though: did he say he uses drums from other tracks and samples them or is he using vst drums?

[@Gaz1111]

LEGEND

[@MarmittDJ]

Claps are real. Just clapping...

[@emgiei966]

wow it's incredible it looks like the mini documentary of "space" where they recorded their home studio where they have all their recording equipment and now seeing this is like the revolution Where you now have a better workspace and better production equipment

[@sylvainbusque3199]

I really like your vision on music, its all about connexion, that we need more than ever ... Thanks !

[@es-wx2jj]

He is genius ❤️🥺

[@LukeVanGeest]

[@debbiewhilden918]

Hi Finn- I found this to be very enlightening! It was a glimpse of modern day music making! You did a good Job on this Finn .Every step you talked about is relatable.If I can understand this anyone can! 🙂❤️⭐️🤘🐲 Keep up the good work!🦋🕊

[@rebeldroid5926]

This is why we milleneals , need to be Homeschooled, and decent Dedication to our craft of Art, and give it some time, and Art will breathe through us.

He sounds so much like Damien Rice, wow.

[@cocohmusic]

such great production skills! Does anyone have advice on how to create something similar to the floaty synth sounds he uses for background ambiance? It's so beautiful

[@theplaylister]

it sounds like it might be a Retro Synth preset, which is a native logic pro plugin

[@clintkay5860]

No change title from cant wait to be dead. CANT wait to be SAID.

[@GabeWilliams]

Anyone know what that synth is? I love how it sounds

[@dark-uk2mw]

I love the guitar，who knows the guitar model？

[@OliverBenson-pn7ck]
