Your welcome =)

[@heckensteiner4713]

"Sick bass solo" is exactly how I would describe that.

[@Nalgax]

''A sick bass solo'' Me: 🧠>💥 This is amazing, you got me swinging-

[@uranus20tutorials]

Thank you so much 😍

[@Isigia_Official]

This is easy to follow and makes the task seem so much less daunting! And I’ve got to say, you nailed that bass solo. B)

[@uranus20tutorials]

Thank you so much! :D

[@Isigia_Official]

@@uranus20tutorials I'm literally trying this out right now in Reaper. Just started out a few weeks ago... and I'm still a starter with little to no experience. But it's videos like these that keep me hooked and going with hope! It's fun when you see your own progress and get to hear it, and I'm thankful that you are able to give little tutorials like this that make for a lovely learning experience!

[@uranus20tutorials]

I get motivated every time I see comments like this! I’ll always do my best to make good tutorials that can be helpful, thank you!

[@lociflow6154]

That bass solo was straight up magma

[@brooksmusic79]

Man I hate to do this to you, but I think we’re gonna need a full version. This track you made is sick!

Bass solo is sick! 🔥

[@uranus20tutorials]

Thanks so much!

[@alexkunce2002]

Electro swing is essentially jazz/big band using a danceable swing rhythm, plus EDM drums and sidechaining. It's awesome, and great tutorial!

[@Prism_lol]

I'm not really a tutorial guy, but this one is so well explained and it makes it look so easy that I actually learnt the genre! Thank you for the video lmfaoo

[@fastrack2170]

I am going to attempt this when I get home. I wish, we could see a full video of you cooking up for a few hours. Thank you for the awesome video, my friend.

[@AAAAGamesGames]

I just finished a game called "Mad Rat Dead" and went to research how to make this more electro swing style thinking I would find videos from 1 or 2 years ago... I'm surprised that this video was released 7 days ago :D

[@uranus20tutorials]

It's been 4 months since I opened this channel, thinking 'would people still watch my video if there's already been tutorials uploaded years ago?' ... and I bet I didn't need to worry at all! Thanks for watching :)

[@baddiemcbadbad9231]

Melodies are so hard for me because I have this innate urge to make things be perfectly on the grid. If I use your bass notes as an example, your 4th bass note doesn't start at the 4th beat, it starts at the end of the 3rd. It absolutely drives me insane, but it also sounds good. I have no idea how to start doing melodies like that and it's been one of my struggles for the longest time

[@uranus20tutorials]

In my opinion, creativity comes from trying new things that you think you won’t ever do. Simply considering another note, another chord, another rhythm can make your music really unique and pop up! I’m originally a dubstep producer, but I’m now studying and practicing to make other genres that I didn’t even consider. In that way I’ve gained more skills in 6 months than past 3 years, so I guess it’s a good way. Good luck to you!

[@pro-00001]

Even if your keyboard skills aren't that great, just play things like basslines on the keyboard and record the MIDI. Do this instead of snapping the notes to the grid in the piano roll. It might take 20 tries before you hit all of the notes correct in a 1-2 bar phrase, and you can always adjust the MIDI locations afterwards. Keep certain elements (often the kick drum) snapped to the grid and then un-snap everything else from the grid. There are so many basslines and little piano lines that sound great that are simply unobtainable by snapping everything to the grid.

[@chills_tiny_mom]

I love your tutorials I made a little something on garageband too following it, was really fun and actually helps me learn the process 😊

[@uranus20tutorials]

Thank you so much! :)

[@samiirai]

Fl studio i. free if you are just fucking around. If you are a little more serious FLstudio is the best cheap option for a top tier daw. Lifetime free updates, smellbleton and other DAW user have to buy it again and again and again lmao.

[@DanielShin-fb2cw]

This is actually so useful to me. Really love how you broke down the consisting elements of the brass and snares. It's amazing how you made this sound good with no over-the-top vsts and samples!

[@samiirai]

You can clearly see that he is using KSHMR sample pack.... Literally not a single stock sample and he using a kontakt library for vst. What the hell are you talking about?????? Let's be real now, no over the top vst and samples?? The only reason this sounds good is because he did good with his sound selection. If your samples are good from the get go and you know which one you gonna use, like 69% of the job is done, the rest is just fucking around in the pianoroll. You can sound good with stock everything no problem, but that takes a little more effort than he put into this.

[@Seon_q]

This really helped, thanks man. I'm actually gonna subscribe because it's a very good tutorial

[@uranus20tutorials]

Thank you so much :)

[@haksawstudios8490]

[@VoidVexMusic]

The saxophone was beautiful, loved the tutorial!

[@codingidiot6754]

quick tip: you can turn on scale highlighting in piano roll options(the little arrow top left)>view>scale highlighting

[@uranus20tutorials]

That’s actually a very good tip, thank you!

[@pro-00001]

I love electro swing, but listening to an entire mix reveals how formulaic a lot of the genre is. "4 on the floor" drum beat and very similar syncopated piano lines in every song. Artists need to take inspiration from the genre but then add their own creative flavor instead of the cut-and-paste sounds that end up in many playlists!

[@uranus20tutorials]

Yeah, totally agree. Yet I tried to stick to the typical versions cuz it’s a tutorial, I really hope my viewers can pull their creativity out with my video!

[@stevechan8505]

god dang !!! this tutorial definitely need a huge thumbs up !!!!!

[@uranus20tutorials]

Thank you so much!

[@maesaliva]

I’m learning music theory and I am finding this helpful to explore my music making ;)

[@charmander9ft632]

Do you have electronic music tutorials? Your videos are awesome, new sub :D

[@Kupta]

You are really good at what you do! Consider buying the software and plugins you use to support the developers. With your talent you will make the money quickly back anyway.

[@uranus20tutorials]

Thanks to all of your support, I’ve been able to purchase all of my plugins by now! Thank you for watching :)

[@DoodleJuiceYT]

bro sounds like delight by jamie berry!! it is electro swing but the piano and bass are almost the same!! its still really good but i actually like your melody too

[@uranus20tutorials]

Thank you so much! :)

[@CT2507]

Very very good start. This could turn into a juicy Electro Swing song!

[@slimefla]

Wow, it turned out to be a very funny melody. Thank you, you are very cool

[@uranus20tutorials]

Thank you so much :)

[@Wooktent]

Oh man, that was awesome. I just GOTTA know the mixing and mastering processing you did for this, mine always sounds muddy or flat cause I can't mix, compress, eq, etc correctly.

[@uranus20tutorials]

I’ll upload a video about how to mix your track easily! I got some projects left to do right now, but I’ll try to make it as soon as possible :)

What library do you use for the solo bass?

[@uranus20tutorials]

I used ‘Kontakt Factory Library’! It’s a decent library with lots of good instruments, so I recommend it :)

[@Flaumstar]

this might be late and a dumb question but at 1:11 how do i get the note lines i never seen this and omg this would be helpful cause i always forget what chords im using

[@uranus20tutorials]

Well, I used the most inefficient way possible, I just manually added tons of ghost notes😂

[@Flaumstar]

@@uranus20tutorials OH i legit thought there was a feature for having ghost lines for which notes your using, would make life easier if that was a toggle xd I also use fl studio with maybe 2 years piano not alot of chord knowledge so i hit random keys and go with it xd

"Sick bass solo, i know nothing about theories, i just let my inspiration do the thing" When i "let my inspiration do the thing" sounds the most awlful thing in earth. And bro just let his inspirations go and sounds the most badass solo that passed through my ears. 🤡

wow I loved the bass you used, what is the name of the library you used in bass kontakt? :0

It’s from ‘Kontakt factory library’ 😃

from where is the brass you are using?

how do you make your piano sound vintage

The original piano sound I used was vintage, but if you don’t have one, you can put bandpass filter and saturation on normal piano!

[@dragonman1495]

I've been writing music for a couple of months now but I'm really new to using any type of percussion. Where did you get the sounds for the kick, snare, etc? Also what sounds did you use for the hi hat part?

[@uranus20tutorials]

I used Splice for all the drum sounds. It’s pretty affordable, and has lots of good quality sounds, so I personally recommend using services like it. And for the hihat part, I used closed hihat, open hihat, and rides(they’re not really ‘hihat’ but for convenienct I marked them like that)

There’s plenty of particles effect online, so if you use premiere pro, you can download it and set it to ‘screen’ mode. And there’s built-in 3d effect in premiere, so you can go to video effects-basic 3d to use it!

It might be a silly questions... Your chord progression sounds like 6-5-4-3 on A major key. But the melody is on C minor key. Please tell me what's the actual progression!!! (I know my music theory sucks)

Well, I've never learned music theory(especially jazz ones), so I chose chords that 'sounded' great to me... If you know how to progress jazz chords, it'll be easier for you to make your own ones!
