I appreciate someone being honest .. and not trying to sell plug-ins… 👍🏻

[@mnomusic]

Man, I better go make plugin so I can sell it:). Nah, there is already more than enough stuff out there to make your music, the challenge of making music is internal not external....

[@cccbb89767]

@@mnomusic agree 100% .. you really caught me when you said that in your clip .. its not about buying more samples and plugins .. I had a time when I thought I need to have every plugin and sample shown.. didnt help me at all.. keep up the good work

[@Dade-xo9xt]

Damn, you got some good vibes going on =) Keep embracing your talents, brother.

I've been producing for 8 or 9 years now. A video without a huge musical intro that's louder than my farts during REM sleep is a very nice change. It's crazy how even after all these years of learning, I can still stumble across videos like this and learn something new.

[@mnomusic]

Glad you liked it, I'm planning a couple more lofi/music theory vids, just takes time.... And yeah, it did not seem appropriate to have a bangin theme song/intro for lofi, it would be a little off-message. cheers, MNO

[@nuuality]

Very good tutorial. Even if I make music for years and years i learned a lot here! Would be great if you go on with a lofi tutorial series;-)

[@mnomusic]

Thanks I am thinking about making.a couple videos about harmony / chord usage for lofi... does that sound interesting?

[@nuuality]

@@mnomusic sounds really interesting...also about technical stuff, like this video. Tbh, i didn't know till now that a side chain on the master is the common thing in lofi...i always tried to group all the melo and chord stuff and sidechain it with the kick. You deserve more attention Mr. mnomusic ! If it's ok I will link this tutorial on our website.

[@themusiclesson6916]

@Finley Eric 15 minutes is not too long in the bigger frame of things.... Enjoy! MNO

Make music theory for lofi melody and chords

[@audiostuff9065]

When you write in modes (as I'm sure you know, youre writing in the 6th mode of C major) do you usually tune your kick to the 1 chord (C Major) or the 6th chord which youre starting your mode on (Am) ?

[@mnomusic]

Honestly I don't usually tune my kick unless I really want the kick to resonate with the bass... I try to have toneless kicks. If I were to tune the kick in this instance I would probably go with A and the minor inflection of the 6th degree would be less intrusive than and C. But when I use pitch on a kick it is usually to find the place where my ears feel it sits best in the mix, and in lofi I'm often mixing 2 kicks together (one fr the attack and another for the body).

This is truly the most confusing comment I have ever received.....
