The drums of CB are... special. You can tell a song has the CB mark when you hear them. That kick, that snare... it's something really difficult to recreate. At least, that's how i see it. But yes, the rest of the song fits the CB style.

[@malteaser8438]

the main thing is at the end of a part of the song they have 4 snares in a row before the next bit

[@patximartel]

Because he works with a drummer

[@mrnovember410]

He's gone on record somewhere saying he uses a lot of Ableton stock 707 kit with a lot of compression.

[@YourIdeologyIsDelusional]

I was going to say, 80s drums, but stay away from the 808 and the 909. So 707, Linn Drum, and BIG analog drums is how you get that retrowave sound. This guy makes some pretty nice offerings regardless of what brand of retro you're into, and they're extremely competitively priced: www.alyjameslab.com/

[@akarsojh9502]

Definitely 707 snare + a lot of compression + bit sampler/crusher + mid and high freq boost on eq

[@moshkitteh]

Really enjoyed that organ sound :)

[@Utubesuxmycock]

that organ sounds awesome so metal

[@L1AML0]

Just want to say thanks for everything you do, Ste. So helpful

[@NathanRiveraMelo]

This dude is a hustler. Keep it up, thanks for the tutorial. Very dense!

[@diegoceballos8812]

goddamn Ste! killer track. amazing tutorial as well.

[@kombosabinho]

Be right before the song played: "Probably another one of those lame tutorials" Me 10 seconds into the song: **MOISTURE LEVELS CRITICAL**

[@Bleedd33]

18:00 is the bomb. You've answered my questions, thanks!

[@andresgecko245]

Excelent.!! as always

[@dylanr.cerezo4325]

Oh, I found you on soundcloud! Honor is one of my personal favorites from what youve released, and it definitely is reminiscent of Turbo killer and Roller Mobster. Keep it up!

[@perilaglon6719]

Maybe Gost with his hardcore bass😏

[@PncK64]

How to Sound Like: Trevor Something next please!

[@lldjwhyteell]

"How to sound like Daniel Deluxe" please!!! Hard and punchy kicks / snares

[@SteIngham]

Daniel has a twitch channel that he does videos on, but I'll see what I can do

[@moonage_]

This is actually a very good tut! Close sound to Carp-Brut's!

[@Mundellica]

i dig this!

[@Bruno13371]

Very helpful, thank you

[@nikolayzhidkov1524]

awesome as always! "How to sound like Power Glove" next please!!! 🙏

[@wardz631]

power glove

[@raijin8136]

@@wardz631 power glove

[@aqwaszx123]

nice a reminiscent of Turbo Killer.

[@battragon]

Nice!

[@egolayer13]

This track definitely has more influences in it than Carpenter Brut alone -- though to be fair, it does have many of the CB staples. I feel like there's some Perturbator in here that augments a strictly CB sound. In fact, that CB/Prtbtr collab track immediately came to mind when I heard this. What was the name of that? Dominator? Domimation? Something along those lines.

[@MrMockinByrde]

Complete Domination, yeah

[@ThorbjrnRagnar]

Perbrutator ?

[@phelan511]

Carpenter brut with perturbator and a little pendulum.

[@StrikerSniper77]

Hey Ste! I just found your awesome tutorials and was wondering if you could do another in either the style of The Northern Lights or Sellorekt/LA Dreams? If so, that would be awesome, thank you!

[@michaelstammer621]

Thanks a lot for another great tutorial. Maybe some Perturbator, GosT or Jordan F next? :-)

[@jan.46]

Not exactly Brut, but overall very helpful. :)

[@thevicol]

The sound is a bit different, although the structure and atmosphere of the piece are quite similar. But the main melody is awesome. It completes perfectly with the piano theme.

[@johnparr347yrsand2]

How to sound like Antonio Vivaldi next please

[@chrisjdgrady]

Can you do a Cliff Martinez style video? Or maybe Paul Haslinger's Halt and Catch Fire stuff? Dunno what to call that kind of music but I think it has synthwave vibes. Would love a vid on that kind of sound.

[@arvidlundblad7585]

Greetings from Sweden, love your videos. Would be nice with a, How to sound like: The midnight

[@guidoskerianz4279]

This please!

[@jonny26281]

The midnight have done their own on sonic academy

[@gianlucamarchese]

How to sound like Duett or Com Truise please!

[@tristanp1446]

I would of just used harmless for the bass, but still great job!

[@velcatt4713]

It sounds like... I'd say Crypt of the Necrodancer ost

[@siclarke82]

How about the more disco style tracks he does like Disco Zombi Italia and Le Perv?

[@MerrStudio]

Le Perv is more disco style? From which side :|

[@tranznart1]

I was wondering if you could show how to sound like Gunship

[@Stinckyfatmama]

It was really cool how we didn't get to hear the full song.

[@bruellbart2380]

Right... at the start?

[@Stinckyfatmama]

Bruellbart I can admit when I’m wrong

[@martinjones9943]

Hey man you got a complete edition of this masterpiece give me the link plz

[@eliseypermyakov]

Hey Ste, it's sounds amazing as usual. Can you show how to sound like Nightstop-Porn After Midnight, and Atrey-Naomi. Thanks in advance

[@SteIngham]

I'll take a look at night stop buddy, had a few requests for that one

[@eliseypermyakov]

Thanks a lot mate

[@eliseypermyakov]

thanks a lot mate

[@MotoGreciaMarios]

This isn't very close to Carpenter's sound. The real stuff is more gritty, more aggressive and generally has many more layers.

[@atsevenam6748]

make a tutorial then

[@zKySe]

In fact, in the title is written "sound LIKE"

[@MotoGreciaMarios]

I suppose when you don't like something and dare go out in the world and state your opinion, you then go right ahead and make your own better version right?...

[@MotoGreciaMarios]

I'm sorry to be hurting the feelings of all you guys but whether or not I make a tutorial it won't make this one any better :)

[@MotoGreciaMarios]

If you say so... lol...

[@Grindcorov]

I think sounds good, but not like Carpenter Brut.

[@efenty6235]

sounding the same as carpenter brut is unattainable for mere mortals

[@gusmaiawork]

it's the closest I've been able to find on youtube

[@CabalisOrder]

it has to many modern sounds not very much 80s VSTs are used... but its cool

[@leanmonsta9677]

Man bad, monkey good

[@Spartan136]

I'd say he has the general idea of Carpenter Brut down pretty well. It's extremely difficult to sound exactly like another composer. So, as a tutorial to make music _like_ carpenter brut, I feel he did an exceptional job.

[@gheesha407]

Sounds good, I think the important is in the bass, is more agressiva than a simple synthwave track. Maybe it don't sound 100% like CB but is normal also this helps a lot to start with dark synth. Thank u

[@EchelonNine]

If you were to quiet the kick slightly and add a fat saw I think this would be very similar

[@llain2600]

Try do dangers style

[@AVERY222]

Try at a roller monster sound

[@DreamInSongs]

Think you could do one for Raydar? Or Perturbator?

[@DreamInSongs]

Particularly Raydar on Evil Squad II

[@user-ys2mh5tz7v]

Nice track. But I can't understand what kind of bass is that. Sounds like Brut or GosT, but what is it?

[@Chris-df4ds]

This sounds so unlike Carpenter Brut that I had to check if I clicked on the right video

[@eugeniorestrepo7814]

why man?

[@danp8067]

I'm new to this kind of music production, what program do you use?

[@djeternl1594]

the drums have more of a gost sound more then a carpenter brut sound but i like the tutorial

[@stigvanloo4902]

how to sound like kickboxer :D

[@electronicvisionsmusic]

How to sound like Yu-Utsu

[@eugeniorestrepo7814]

wow bro you listen to carpenter brut?! your synthwave songs have a very different style! never thought you listened to darksynth artist. nicee hahahah

[@auxexi]

lots of influencing off turbo killer it sounds.

[@Attackonmuffin]

So dumb question what program is this?

[@aymeriTTV]

Fl studio

[@TachyBunker]

Honestly, it can be looked as agressive, but it doesn't sound quite like Carpenter Brut. The drums especially, and the way of composing (with lots more sampling than you did) wasn't really right. But it's hard to get it right. Good job on this nonetheless.

[@malteaser8438]

ngl the kicks are way too loud

[@a.keeper]

Maybe Perturbator or Gost, but not Carpenter brut, not enough of something

[@user-sm1sj5rl1d]

Неплохо, с синтами только ошибся и на кике у него низ, ну или подмешка низкочастотная.

[@koreboredom4302]

Meh.

[@EARMAKE]

not impressed by this track. U better show Paradise Warfare by CB

[@insanepicturemarkup7738]

Hawk2Tony I have my own FLP of Paradise Warfare, I can send you it if interested

[@insanepicturemarkup7738]

www.mediafire.com/file/p6lpa3d53m3o40w/Paradise+Warfare+Intro.mid No patches, but from lowest to highest octave: polysix style bass, string pads, and a high lead with lots of delay. I know there is only the intro, but it should be pretty easy to fill in the rest.
