[@milc6606]

[@BeatsbyVanity]

[@huntrrams]

The production is so deep and true to FlyLo. Could you do a Sound Like The Avalanches vid?

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Definitely!

[@huntrrams]

BeatsbyVanityTV 👍👍

[@pyro7497]

The Avalanches yesss!

[@slasher2782]

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Thank you!

[@samwain584]

THis video was incredible! THanks, loved how you analyse with Span, never seen that before and it makes so much sense

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Thank you! :)

[@LoganTheGeeRaff]

Dang the beat you made is nice man !!

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Thank you!

[@LoganTheGeeRaff]

BeatsbyVanityTV may I suggest more reverb on the vocal part lol?

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Infinite1ne Of course! I probably should go back to this track and do something with it at some point.

[@mr.peanutbutterlonewol1175]

Did you make them

[@crybo]

Man, only 3 minutes in and listening to your track, great work on this! Looking forward to these tutorials.

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+crybo Appreciate that!

[@elykCkyle]

Bruhhhh all my flylo favorites 😢😢

[@looookalive]

I like your channel man, thanks for the effort you put in.

[@BeatsbyVanity]

[@bismuthmedia2519]

This was awesome! Great job!

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+Bismuth Music Thanks!

[@jordifilali4921]

wew I like this approach of analyzing the tracks, it gives so much information right away

[@MrMusiciluv17]

great video, interesting perspective. I'll be looking for part 2.

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+Evan Oliver Thank you! Part two will be out this Sunday :)

[@MrMusiciluv17]

Cool

[@kademoore8949]

Wow I was shocked. Your beat was remarkably close. Obviously lacking some of the textures of Flying Lotus but I'm sure you know that. He's kind of a beast. Literally the best track I've heard in comparison to them though. You are obviously a master at your craft. Good job man

[@castaneasounds]

Super helpful, thank you!

[@michaeltocco312]

Hell yes dude, this is so helpful, thank you so much!!

[@chefboay]

You deserve more subs bro

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+Aidoom Thank you dude! I'll get there :)

[@kieronmccarthy628]

Really enjoyed this video. Loved your analysis. Will be listening to part 2 and subscribing.

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+kieron McCarthy Thank you!

[@dysplasiagiraffe4845]

This shits better than frankjavcees now effortless attempts at humour It actually give guidance lol

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+Patrick Ferguson Haha, appreciate that!

[@Youglemyvideos1]

genshoisdripped can't get triggered

[@braids9102]

frankjavcee is funny but hes kinda low key getting annoying and not helping anyone

[@joedalton77]

You can feel the infetterence!

[@ondanomada]

hey ho! great vid...I thought it was getting too long to get to the point but then it was surprising to-the-point analysis...definetively great vid sir. thanks. subscribed ;)

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+thesuburbmusic Appreciate it! :)

[@Noturno84]

GOOD!

[@DomesticBeats]

FlyLo FM

[@jonhadley8387]

[@TheWinterShadow]

I have heard of Flying Lotus but you made me more interested in the style. Thanks man.

[@brosandimusic]

YOOURE A GODDD

[@ebtcowboy5511]

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+Justin johan Glad you enjoyed!

[@alexmighty9004]

Because Onra was on Lotus' steeze back then.

[@dncewzrd]

Your channel is awesome, bro! +1 sub, also, would it be possible for you to do a tutorial for Mndsgn?

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+DeAndre Lee Dixon Thank you, appreciate that! Great suggestion, I'll make a start on putting together a tutorial around him.

[@MrMusiciluv17]

I'm going to follow you on soundcloud. I go by 'itfloats'.

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+Evan Oliver Appreciate that, just followed you back. Really feeling your 'Calling' track too.

[@MrMusiciluv17]

Thanks

[@richarddaigle8090]

video is not available?????Noooooooo really liked this one

[@Sunset-iw1vb]

you sound like Joshy

[@TheHotFalafel]

Explain what you mean by side chaining instruments (drum to bass) together.

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+TheHotFalafel Yes, I should have explained this in the video actually: So side chaining or side chain compressor is pretty similar to your ordinary compression the only difference is side chain compression uses another signal other than the main input to control the amount of compression. If for example we wanted to side chain a kick drum to our baseline we would do this via placing a compressor plugin on the baseline channel, so long as the compressor had a side chain input we could select the kick drum on the compressor and change the amount of side chain compression being applied via the controls on the plugin. In this example, every-time the kick drum plays or sounds, the baseline will dip in volume, allowing the kick drum to pass through without interfering with the bass or vice versa. Imagine a gate, when the baseline is playing the gate is closed but when the kick drum plays the gate will open and close again once that kick drum has played its duration. This process then repeats for every kick drum in your record. I hope that helps! Thank you for stopping by too!

[@wessside]

1983 !

[@brandonlawrence600]

mura masa

[@sauldavidson6292]

inspiring video man, keep it up

[@Syse]

Mac Miller samples all of these!

[@lovefromaaron247]

that beat is amazing!!! whats the chances of vocaling it??

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+SicksAmEt Thank you, email me at: [e-mail] and we'll discuss it!

[@KingJTheGr8]

How do you lower RMS?

[@zulubeatsprince]

how does a video have 36k likes but only 17k views???

[@BeatsbyVanity]

342's likes!

[@joshnewton8269]

NIGGA. are you illiterate!?

[@zulubeatsprince]

no.. when I viewed the video it said 36k likes... might have been a glitch with my browser.. but no, I'm not illiterate... I can read quite well

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Lol, it's all good man. KZbin does that from time to time.

[@sanchezescoba-daniel6090]

2:33 name of song please

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Unnamed and forever lost on my HD. The sample is from a Samplephonics library, one of the wonky or future beat ones.

[@lucidjason1341]

Does anyone know where I can get the drums?

[@christiandiaz6871]

the funny part is, its actually good lol

[@fatnoodle303]

When you said you met flying lotus at Colton hall, was this in a small crowd at the front of the stage after he came down to shake hands and say hello? Because I was there, and I was actually the guy who called him down off the stage!

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+MUSIC EAT PEOPLE Oh for real? Me and my friend waited by his bus after the show had finished, he came out about 20 minutes later.

[@fatnoodle303]

BeatsbyVanityTV oh sweet, I just stayed in the venue after everyone left, and he came up to pack away his stuff. Then I kept calling him to come down until he did, and I shook his hand. And I'm sure in that handshake he passed some of his production magic into me

[@LowLeg6]

hey when you import flylo tracks on ableton, are you importing wav tracks or can I compare my mix/master with an mp3 file?

[@elevatenyc]

Hi did you mean to say sidechain kick to the bass or did you mean sidechain your bass to move out of way of kick? Sorru new to sidechaining.. I could see in this type of hiphop the kick moving away from bass may be a tool as well though

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Yeah you're right with the later, sidechain the bass to move out of the way of the kick.

[@datcat1981]

Just wondering what software you use?

[@chico1342]

Dat Cat abelton

[@baitumetsemanong5913]

Great content But I use Logic Pro x ... do you know a channel where I can find tutorials on similar production just in logic

[@mattg5461]

Most of the concepts apply to every DAW

[@SkinoGreeneVu]

Does that analyzer come standard with Ableton 9?

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+SkinoGreeneVu It doesn't, but it is free! Here: www.voxengo.com/product/span/

[@ndubb100]

So the beat you are analyzing wasn't made by Flying lotus? Am I missing something?

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Yes, I analyze 3 Flying Lotus records, then produce a track in the style of FlyLo which I deconstruct in part 2.

[@mr.peanutbutterlonewol1175]

Did you make this or he did

[@BeatsbyVanity]

The track at 2.30 I made, the rest are by FlyLo.

[@TorellWob]

Spoiler alert: You can't

[@TorellWob]

i take that back, respectful and cool tutorial

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+TorellWob Haha, you can get it close, but only FlyLo can do FlyLo, which is the way it should always be.

[@iceydaywalker9198]

good shit, but sounds too clean to be flylo. he gets a more raw, authentic sound to his production.

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+Ryan Bergen For sure, in some of his records he includes samples straight from Vinyl including his drums. It all depends on how dirty/raw you're trying to make the track.

[@iceydaywalker9198]

+BeatsbyVanityTV true. keep up the fantastic work man we all appreciate what you're doing!

[@Payn333]

What program is this?

[@user-ub8vx8zd1d]

Ableton Live

[@ozziesgaming]

What is the program he is using?

[@toniyo3]

Ableton Live. He hid the samples menu on the left, which makes the standard look of the DAW (for me at least). You'd recognize it easier if he left it out but I guess he needed that space to show the tracks.

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Yeah, as Toni rightly said, Ableton.

[@superfather2066]

this is awful

[@demirvelagic2557]

U deaf nigga?

[@snvffxxx]

sounds more like mura masa

[@nikolacekic4888]

what software are you using to make this?

[@BeatsbyVanity]

+nikola cekic Ableton Live 9 :)

[@nikolacekic4888]

yeah,i figured.Great tutorials,really.As for me u have 1 more subscribe.Keep it up bro p.s How do i make my drums be distorted like flying lotus tracks? how to give them that dirty feeling
