This is week SIX of making and releasing 50+ songs in one year, and this week was crazy. A new song went from zero to done and I worked on a ton of the Full Length album as well.

This "day in the life" music producer content is what I've been craving...you've done a great thing here.

[@deyvidpetromusic]

Every time, I get a little bit of extra inspiration. Sounds great man. A reverse piano sound would sound epic in Jaded somewhere, a great transition effect.

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Thanks! Ahhh yeah that would be sick

[@deyvidpetromusic]

@@NathanJamesLarsen how is your daughter doing?

[@ootleberg]

dude there's no way jaded isn't gonna be a hit its just too good and catchy

[@ChrisCrusier]

You’ve made comments about how you have artist in mind when writing music. Your voice fits perfectly with jaded I looking forward to playing it on repeat on launch day. Hope you had great time away with family.

[@thezebraforce]

Just stumbled into this, I'm running a similar challenge of an EP a month for this year. Will definitely be following along to keep myself motivated. Awesome work

[@wdinn]

One of the best parts of this series is watching you commit to song ideas. I have so many project ideas that never go anywhere, or don't get finished...watching you follow your ideas/intuition so assertively is inspiring.

[@spcharbath13]

I love watching you through this journey especially how you talk about all your thoughts on everything. It's helping me learn a lot see your thought process and how you think through making jaded

[@Statictothesoundmusic]

Jaded is unbelievably good. Can’t wait for the release.

[@bonjuvi05]

Yay, new episode! Watching now!

[@zacburns5156]

Keep going my guy! This is incredibly inspiring

[@jayneubauer3401]

I get the whole"I hate the sound of my voice". Probably one of the reasons I quit singing and write instrumentals (hehe). Thanks for the reminder that there are those out there that could be happy (or dare I say inspired!?) by it. On a side note, when you were in Ashlight, did I see your controller has an X/Y pad!? I would LOVE this!

[@peterchamplin8767]

I feel like every video in this series gets better. Keep it up.

[@JustinHackertMuzak]

Nice work! So inspiring!😊

[@rmp3yt]

that's the way i write songs too, chord progression or melody first before lyrics. lyrics will just flow out of the brain when you have the chord progression. 🥰

[@evenmegan]

Nathan! The vibe is so good! Yes yes YES

[@blazing6string]

Produce the producer idea: 42:48 change the lyric “it’s just part of the game” to “it’s just part of the deal”

[@n2dgroove]

I have been hearing Jaded in my head since last video, Nathan. Sounds great!

[@lorens2143]

Funny thing. When you started producing Jaded i "heard" like.... i heard the kind of a beat more like... "upbeat but soft upbeat" like U2 - Beautiful Day, With a "creshendo-beat chorus". AND THEN... when you picked it up again... you started touching on that with the drums. And i was like "yeah yeah yeah... you also hear it Nathan... go go go go!!!!". (okay... now im gonna continue the video to see where you take this

[@12vpowercord]

Let’s go new video jus got out of school

[@EnzSongsOfficial]

Jaded sounds crazy! Can’t wait for its release!

[@ISTHMUSchannel]

how do you do all this man ! editing video as well wow

[@AlexFedoruk-music]

that's soooooo fire 🔥🔥

[@deseyenrecordstudio6078]

Time spot 6:15, a reversed reverb would have sounded sick on JADED.

[@MombaFam]

fire

[@Dextermoon1]

May I ask what camera and kind of storage you use to document all this? Must be a lot of footage to go through. Loving it

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

I have a couple cameras but my main camera is a Canon 5d Mark IV with a Sigma Art 24-70mm lens... not a cheap setup - I have pretty much a full video production setup with professional lights, cameras, etc. (not that I use all of that in these videos either) but for content in general. As far as storage - I have a dedicated SSD that is exclusively for this series. Folders for each week and subfolders for each day... all organized chronologically. Already have well over 1TB of footage

[@FreestyleGalaxyNMore]

QUESTION ❓ What are your computer specs ❓ Thanks in advance 🙏 Bless God 😊

[@timetoarrive]

Hey There, I'm new to your great channel. I wanted to ask you if you had any tips for learning production efficiently. I seem to take forever to finish a song. I was thinking of trying to break down professional productions and stealing (ethically) some ideas to repurpose in my tracks. Any advice along the same lines? Thank you!

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Hey I actually have quite a few videos on this on my channel -- I'd start here and I have a lot of other videos that are in a similar vein: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIu1i2elrbqIqZI

[@javascript6948]

What are the percussion libraries you use in this song are they loops or single shots?

[@christopherjansen5135]

Thanks, Nathan….now I’m walking around the house with “Jaded” playing through my head on repeat….and I don’t know how to make it stop, lol!!!!😂

[@saivinay5250]

u can do it when i first started making music i used to release everyday

[@PANTECHNICONRecordings]

No wonder it’s catchy - it’s that vi - IV - I - V chord sequence from literally hundreds of other songs. It’ll be interesting to see what you can do to raise it above the cliché.

[@PANTECHNICONRecordings]

And the other new song is very nearly the same thing again…

[@user-gk1uj3vh4k]

I'm Jewish too, besides that I really like the songs you produced, keep producing because I can't stop listening to these songs

[@antleung]

Love your content and would like to buy the course. However, the discount code doesn't work.

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

I just saw this - sorry I was out of town for a week - I got it fixed! Of course it broke while I was gone! :(

[@Uptownmik]

I can totally hear Jaded being remixed into some sort of rock song.

[@PytoX]

Great stuff nice songs ! It seems the coupon code is not working anymore ? 😅

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Uh oh! looks like something happened on my end - it's working now!

[@PytoX]

@@NathanJamesLarsen worked now great 👍

[@RJEnriquez]

JADED!

[@peterchamplin8767]

How long did it take you to edit those vocals you recorded in 12 minutes?

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Maybe 20 minutes between comping and editing

[@eshortsax]

Enjoy your time away!

[@dfnymusic3396]

Jaded is fire man. I would love to crush a guitar solo on that. Keep me in mind if you’re looking for a guitar solo that’ll rip your soul out

[@user-gf5zg4fw3x]

Hi Nathan, I am a young producer and artist. I love your work and would love to do battle.

[@user-gf5zg4fw3x]

I can’t wait to watch the next video! I watched this last one 3 times!

[@mikehyugaumdor7155]

Ok ima watch tonight befo bedtime

[@lostsoulsoftheabyss1771]

Ps. I prefer pitched down vocals

[@sans-e]

This is such a great series. The songs sound great. Some weirdos in the comments lol

[@AlexDMast]

hey Nathan! quick PSA...There's someone in your comments section impersonating you thats been messaging me sending me a scam link. not sure if our able to permanently block people? Love the video!!!

[@flpgus]

Unfortunately not, these bots are created over and over and the comments are also the same I bet you this will never stop, you can check pretty much any tech channel comment section and you'll understand why, it's almost like bacteria (get rid of one, and end up generating two) (Tho the reason you can't click on links on the description anymore is because that's a way KZbin found to stop people from clicking immediately)

[@MasterSongStudiosReal]

Have an amazing trip. Great video this week. I realized that I wrote one of my own songs the same week you wrote Jaded, and I obviously didn't know you were writing a song since I watched the video the next week, so I hope that's a good omen. 😉

[@NathanJamesLarsen]

Yeah I have been sadly having to deal with that for some time... it sucks, but they keep coming back... if there is not a verified check mark next to my name - then it is NOT ME. I'd report and block immediately to help get rid of it.

[@endirisounds]

I always love the instrumentals but the lyrics take me out of it. It would be cool to see you collaborate with someone on lyrics for some different styles.

[@endirisounds]

"I know you always feel so naked, and everybody knows you hate it"

[@endirisounds]

But my gosh ur vocals after the comps and harmony are insane

[@blazing6string]

The easier way: ……. Studio one

[@lostsoulsoftheabyss1771]

You put too much pressure on yourself man.

[@lono3453]

wtf?
