HOW Professional Producers Create Effective Build Ups

[@offclouds4041]

Being a DJ has made me a better producer & being a producer has made me a better DJ

[@ProfessorSaibertin]

The circle of life.

[@yerahmlee730]

The subtle humor in this video is too good

[@JAYJUNO_ofc]

Yes! Pre drops and fake outs can be annoying sometimes for sure while mixing 🫠🫠 Really good video once again 🌐🌐🌐

[@eli-shulga]

13:40 "Probably end up trashing" ???? Is BRUTAL! Do not dare, (please). Im getting it BP if you get it out

[@6Litz_]

Track at end is dope!

[@nextgenph2595]

I liked that song on the foreshadowing part.

[@cekirdekci32]

how good this track is back to this video to get some help for my build up today, realizing one more time how much this channel helps and how much I like listening to Zen's music. Best mentor of 2023 is Zen World for me again. same as 2022 same as 2021.

[@michaelphase]

Awesome video bro! Definitely something I'd like to try in my stuff.

[@krzakku8878]

Amazing video

[@cekirdekci32]

Soo many great tips, omg thank you so much for these gold tips master Zen world. Every battle is won before it's fought is one of my fav quotes

[@taurus87]

Thank you my professor😊🎉❤

[@ClectaSkiMusic]

10:40 Kream Remix... Love those guys work.

[@JonJon-bx1ww]

Great vid as always Zen! Lawdy love your vids. But I just wanted to know: How are you enjoying those headphones? Thinking of getting them.

[@ZenWorld]

Love them make stuff sound clear and not good... Which is good for the mixing and tracking side of stuff

[@don_huzan]

omg I’m so excite yay

[@luisesquer676]

The track is fucking sick

[@floral7444]

Thanks for the video 🎉

[@Tonyy2Nite]

Master Zen your the Man 👊🏼

[@brandonamaro2491]

Thanks dude!!! I kinda knew how to use foreshadowing works but I didn’t know it had a name 🤓 always learn on your channel

[@SnaikHead]

yes am a dj and you are right, too many Predrops these days, unless it sounds phenomenal or unique, it just sounds too try hard

[@Semperf11]

Nice video man

[@NielsTheTerminatorFeijen]

Nice video!! Sick song in the end mate! :) For the dj'ing part and predrop...Mix out faster a few songs in a row / loop sections before the drop to mix into to and / or prep your set

[@julianmoncada6764]

great video! nice ferrari btw

[@djjameshayes9766]

That track that u said u might bin sounds 🔥 if it was a little faster. Would love to see your vocal writing process

[@nextgenph2595]

13:47 - 14:30 is B I T C H I N B R O. I'm gonna work on something similar with a trance track. I love that technique. DOPE AF. I've been in the rave scene since 96, and I'm telling you thats badass. I keep replaying this so I can assemble something similar in my own tracks. Much love (no homo) lol.

[@theduck603]

It's 2023 my guy, you don't need to say no homo

[@cekirdekci32]

Thanks!

[@pransukhmusic]

always helpful. ty

[@iamharbo]

As a dj i personally like songs with a regular drop that way if I want too I can create a predrop live

[@cizzzla]

Yes Zen. Appreciate this….You need some space on that hard drive lad ❤

[@Flux_One]

Too much peanut butter? What the fuck Zen!!!!

[@XLAMOORX]

I miss the low end but i think i miss zen world more

[@Rafaritho]

holy fuck zen i’m your fan 🥺

[@SaraSimmsMusic]

Love this master and his analogies! Not too much peanut butter on the bread! ;)

[@rowdyrudy3761]

Alright then, keep your secrets!!

[@avilo1783]

This track is sick - you should drop this

[@jerem2353]

Nice one, really useful ma g (4:32 sounds to weak for our track imo but defo works for some other tracks out there)

[@marvomusic]

8:29 VOY!

[@JONQPiD]

11:01 … I ONLY play pre-drops in my set. Back to back to back. 😎

[@santiagoberro3073]

You should do a video about fred again, he is killing it

[@luckylarsful]

If your track (13:42) drops, i'm doing whatever your Phase Plant preset is doing

[@jayR0191]

Can we get a break down of that project file ?

[@cekirdekci32]

I also would love to see a video on that.

[@wesleyolson2624]

YO you know that track is fire stop lyin 😂🤣😂

[@wnrwld]

Nice vid! Obviously you're not the biggest 'Deeper purpose' fan, haha 😀

[@ZenWorld]

Oh just used for B Roll footage

[@bobbylimesmusic]

Lol the always-high-guys at 124 bpm

[@valiantlydefault]

bit of a editing misstake going on at 5:33 no?? :D

[@ZenWorld]

Yes haha

[@ZenWorld]

I thought I skimmed all of the video

[@NickyDekker89]

I dont like pre-drops most of the time. For me it kind of kills the vibe if not done exactly right at the perfect time. Especially when it's being overused it's just ugh in my opinion.

[@Rainer01]

Peanut butter without the bread low carb 😂

[@Soulazy]

Thanks Zen.. super useful this one.. as a DJ, I personally don't really look at pre-drops as a separate factor when choosing the next song to play but mixing out must start at the pre-drop to maintain phrasing so it can get tricky if we're not paying attention.. Luckily most DJ gear allows you to put a colored cue point to remind you where to mix out..

[@Ardefisty]

Dude the synth at 14:07 sounds massive, don't trash that banger. How do you even achieve that lead? Is it FM synthesis? Fire my man 🔥

[@ZenWorld]

Saw and Sync distortion!!

[@werbistdu7118]

[@claudecoup423]

Actually I've found you can never have too much peanut butter on the bread. I've tried, and it never happened.

[@grichu]

Don't trash the song it's dope!!!

[@peltekovski]

5:30 messed up while editing?

[@ZenWorld]

Yes

[@peltekovski]

@@ZenWorld The video is great anyways so no one would mind.

[@ZenWorld]

Thanks bro just a skip I can't believe I missed that I hitbthebshrotcut key for adding a title

[@Rainer01]

Gu gu ga ga gu gu gu bam drop 😂

[@rawbinmo]

tensionnnn

[@cekirdekci32]

And can you not trash the track please? maybe it sounds cheesy to your genius ears but its actually catchy. don't trash it. but lay it on me is a really really good track. playing it back to back with "can I ask you" dope tracks brother. cant wait for more releases.

[@Rainer01]

Ba ba ba 😂😉

[@iamtygar]

your track that you used to mention foreshadowing... fire. Do not trash that

[@vishpanday439]

Fr that shit was fire

[@alessandrosori732]

[@ironqueen_osrs]

There are 2 things I hate about the music of today (hard-dance); piepkicks and fake drops!

[@highhyena]

Fat no for me with pre drops/ cool downs. Takes the energy out Imo. Everything is more satisfying if it explodes after a build up

[@jackskinner6117]

Although I agree with everything that zens says this song below goes against everything he says at 4:50 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aprSkHeLd9GMi9U

[@ZenWorld]

Yeah of course always the exceptions depends on the music you make.

[@iamweska]

there's no such thing as too much peanut butter
