How to write 80's Funk & Boogie music.

[@EMMETTBROWNMUSIC]

Staccatissimo. Ayyyyy Ohhhhhhhh Cannolis!

[@ilovecody7514]

I wouldn't mind you doing a super long video one day especially in genres like these. 80s Synth funk just has so much depth and feel to me, and is so easy to update and experiment with today.

[@ElianaDAngelo]

I would like to but unfortunately its hard to get people to commit to watching it. Really hard to keep good viewer retention. :(

[@rafaelpimentel5548]

@@ElianaDAngelo but where did you learn all of this? I have some interesting musical ideas but i unfortunately dont know a whole lot of sound selection, chords, etc used in funk

Yes this tutorial was very good indeed. Would also love to see morez

Born in 1964 - this is my favourite music and im new in making music. you are really a gem - thank you, ELIANA from Cologne, Germany

[@fen4ri]

I really like how you play a clip of the song you're working on before even getting to the discussion. It's nice to have that idea of what you're working towards with each element discussed, going forward.

[@importedloser]

Lol how does this chick not have more subs. Literally one of the only female producers on YT I've come across to date aside from BadSnacks

[@spectralknights2]

Yea I agree. Awesome channel. She gotta make more videos tho

[@Haku_records]

The KZbin game is hard! I would suggest sharing to your friends, liking, and subbing! Comments help a lot too.

[@GothAtheist]

You should take a closer look. She's a trans producer. Not a female producer.

[@importedloser]

@@GothAtheist I'm going to let you figure out why that comment's a little weird on your own

Someone makes 80's boogie funk this well I have to subscribe. Great content

[@ElianaDAngelo]

Thanks! As far as other producers you might really like people like XL Middleton, E. Live, Nickeee B, Jay Diggs, and Dabuell!

[@MrAbeck1]

This was amazing! As producer looking to get into making funk, this breakdown into detail was so welcome, and as amazing as funk and disco is, it's so rare to find good stuff on the internet about it. Thanks for making it!

[@Powerphail]

Love how you explain music theory in such an approachable way. And the staccatissimo too of course.

[@flowmaka]

I’ve played in bands during this era as a teen and you’re authentic in your production and choice of synths and drums. Great job! 👍

[@komicsreviewer8505]

You are a liar.

[@JohnFred1964]

Love it! Thousand of thanks.

Really loving your tutorials Clear, concise, no time wasting 🙏🏼 You explain stuff at just the right level - super handy, thank you

I'm happy they have been that helpful! The shirt is from Adam Neeley's store if you want to buy it. :D

[@actualmortgage7122]

This is some A-list stuff here. This is the sort of complete tutorial for this style I've been looking for, something in the style of Dabeull. You fucking rock! The song in the background puts the stank right on my face.

[@ElianaDAngelo]

If only I could be as good as Dabeull. Top tier.

[@saf1999]

Thank you for this! I’ve grown to love this genre of music

[@photophob]

Random comment for the algorhythm. One of the best tutorial channels i've come across. Keep it up!

[@molyslatum2199]

Coldest funk tutorial in the game. These other videos just don't do it like this. The song hits and the quick but insightful/helpful explanations make it cake to follow along. Thank you, keep making more of these!!

[@kimjosebalade]

Very instructional, learned a lot. Thanks !

[@SevanStick]

This channel is basically a degree in production for free. Unbelievable. ❤️

[@KrisP3016]

Wow I cant believe I found this gem of a channel. Been looking for some really in depth, intuitive explanations as to ‘why’ these songs sound the way they do rather than an endless trove of “here’s a beat I made in an hour that kind of falls into *insert genre*” This song wasn’t made, it was COMPOSED. Much respect to your craft.

[@ElianaDAngelo]

Thanks fam. 🙏 I had the same fustrations seeing halfassed videos out there.

[@kidthekido]

underrated channel! this is so great, thanks!

[@pabloangelzarateperez7400]

I really dig this kind of content. The content, audio/video quality, and editing are clear and to the point and I really appreciate the lack of clickbaity/youtuber-crap and the sincerity of it all. I'd love content that goes more in depth to the music theroy or producing side of it, and I'm also interested in your take on DnB, though this is also great.

You forgot the lick t shirt. That stuff makes or breaks a video lol

[@leezydagod2507]

i dig ur musical preference. damn near every musical genre is a decendant of funk. really great material. please continue this series. you'd be surprised how many peers and audience members appreciate this.

[@ElianaDAngelo]

Thanks and you right. I need to stop being lazy

[@theminorprophet5132]

This video is great and I actually would like to make a request on a concept you touched earlier here on the bass part and that's outlining a chord. It's something I honestly struggle with a lot. The idea of taking a chord progression and splitting up the notes to make a full song. I honestly wouldn't mind seeing a video on you taking a simple chord progression and dissecting how you outline them with the different instruments if that makes sense.

[@orlyangeloandthesoundcrate]

Hi. I’m 2 years late find your crash course in boogie funk. By far the most useful, while being super insightful. Can’t thank you enough for sharing the simplicity and joy of making this genre of music. Bravo. - O

[@MrJpbmusic2005]

Sad that I grew up late 70s and all through the 80s and I never appreciated 80s Electro Funk Boogie style ..I love it even more now your tutorial on the style has lit a fire in me to produce this style...your doing an amazing job breaking it down, so up an coming producers like me can gain experience keep up the great work 🎹🎼

Glad it could inspire you. JDiggs is like the top Boogie guy right now as well as Nickee B

One of the more in depth videos I've seen on this topic, great explanations along the way and reasoning for the choices you've made! Would be nice to hear your take on the actual synths that you use as well, your sound is very authentic and I noticed some of your synths are from the Diva synth by U-he. Learning a lot from your videos, keep up the good work!

I adore this video. Thank you so much. I just wish the plugins and the drum kit were listed in the discription.

[@seanrobison3040]

Funk/soul artists/groups started using drum machines around 1982-83. "Friction by Hot Chocolate", "Foreplay by Kwick", and "Shine On Me by One Way" are some examples.

[@ElianaDAngelo]

Yep totally! Some nice examples too. 😎
