How I made a Beatport Top 10 Track (Tech House) 🥈

[@jdubbz_uk]

Sic video bro. I love the level of detail you went into and showed all of us. There aren't many top level producers out there that are prepared to show their processing chains let alone the actual plugins used. So massive respect to ya for letting us budding producers see how a top level pro does it 🙌🙌🙌🔥🔥🔥

[@itsthewestend]

trying to switch up the youtube game!

[@Breezmusic1]

100% agree! Dope tutorial

[@MrJmhess77]

This video is gold!!

[@djerikfox]

..one of the best tech house tutorials ever, respect

[@EmilGabrielNYC]

Your track Running hit me so so hard, I have even cried to it! Amazing!

[@JaySerano]

Definitely one of the most fast paced, no bs, informative and easy to follow style of track breakdowns out there! Keep it up mate TNX!

[@21ontheblock95]

THANKS A LOT, that helped me to switch into the jenre and make a decent tech house bass and drums, I wish all producers to be so detailed in their tutorials as you! It is really very very important to show particular samples of everything, sample selection is a key

[@itsthewestend]

[@ebbenflow_]

i love that you took into account people playing this song on instagram and macbooks. you're a genius and a great teacher!

[@poopshootmcgoo2903]

From going to car stereo competitions I know that most lower frequencies below 40hz to about 30hz are almost inaudible without a nice stereo system so I normally tune my kicks to about 45 hz and keep the sub bass at the same level unless you are trying to emphasize some super lows like during a bass heavy drop or build

[@JanxakaJX]

So thankful one of the best producers out there (you!) is offering these videos for free on KZbin!

[@itsthewestend]

gotta give back!

[@cardstockx7655]

This video explained everything I was lacking to really lock in on my sound quality. Cheers to you brotha, changing the game

One of the best tutorials I've ever seen! As a teacher and producer, I can't rate this enough. I love your articulation and explanation, not just technically but also creatively and the meaning behind and song. Well done mate!

[@joshuakhokhlan]

Loved this tutorial man! Your breakdown was very intuitive and it showed that the foundation of a top track does not need expensive plugins. You are a mastermind with your creative arrangement and automation skills. Keep doing more of these!

[@itsthewestend]
