Hello Native Instruments My name is Rose Covered Gas Mask And I do believe Bluegrass has not yet had its proper electronic rebirth... 🪕🎻🎚🎛🎹 🥀🥀🥀🥀 🤔 what do u think🤘🔥🥀

[@starup233]

Mad Alien Producer

[@musiquefiendcomposer9823]

Nicely presented 🎵

[@toolsee64]

What DAW is this?

[@dougcooper6120]

Dahi's creativity is out of this world. It's such a breath of fresh air compared to producers that just follow trends.

[@kevindega]

Ain't the truth. Respect.

[@keimforeignking]

Preach on

[@dfww1130]

Dahi is phenomenal，he can go with any genre and make it sound so unique，definitely a legend.🔥

[@Ryan-ik2mk]

Pro producer has cheat sheet stickers on his keys…. Proof you should never let stigma ruin your creativity. If that’s what you need to do what you do, do it.

[@NativeInstruments]

Couldn't agree more, just do what you gotta do!

[@r.i.psteez929]

What’s the cheat sheet ? Is it just the keys labeled or what ? Would love to know.

[@dontknow3949]

@@r.i.psteez929 yeah people just think it looks amateur I think especially when you’ve worked with sooo many huge artists they’d expect you just know your music theory. I’ve been making music on and off for 10+ years now and honestly don’t know ANY music theory 😂 then again I am mostly a percussionist and sample-beat-maker for the most part

[@NobodyImportant-ef3de]

@@dontknow3949 I know some generally but I still have these stickers on. Most hip hop beats don't use music theory. Only something soulful or R&B.

[@boimesa8190]

this dude need to make his own instrumental albums I'd listen for sure 😍😍

[@NativeInstruments]

Yes please!

[@Liu_Baang]

He had one called Toys. I can't find it anymore though. It was 🔥🔥🔥

[@iZotopeOfficial]

Let's go!! 🔥🔥

🚀

[@poppindjscream]

Thanks Native Instruments for choosing this master genius of music production

[@NativeInstruments]

We gotcha 🙌

[@jaywahmusic]

Skill, natural talent, and music theory knowledge. He is definitely a monster!!! This was incredible

[@NativeInstruments]

Couldn't agree more!

[@ayoonine]

One of few producers that experiment and produced for J Cole, Drake, Kendrick and Jay Z

[@besaliju]

Dahi has consistently been criminally underrated

[@fabiothehallereffect1735]

I like his workflow

[@NativeInstruments]

We dig it.

[@Zimo0o]

its actually crazy how many hits this man is responsible for bro so talented

[@NativeInstruments]

Pretty sure he's cooking some more 😎

[@kevinsavage3574]

Producers are so underrated, their heavily slept on!!!!!!!!!

[@ellejaye5320]

I love how he speaks about it as well "create the world" it lives in. Producers often give beats like a bag of chips and as an artist you want a producer to recognize that a beat can make what you want to say pour out of you or force you to squeeze it out based on how many colours they gave you to paint with

[@patrickmaitwe2229]

Damn... I feel I haven't been respectful to my art form... I definitely fell into the "crank out beats like a factory" mentality. But each song has the POTENTIAL to become a masterpiece and should be treated that way. Thanks, Elle.

[@NaoSakuga]

Dahi beats are goated and somehow i feel still underrated, lots under the surface, love it

[@avocadochrome]

such a flawless tutorial. goes from a simple idea into something so rich. appreciate you dahi.

[@divinesoul7]

Dahi is one of the dopest producers and I love watching him create. Thanks NI for always giving us the inside scoop!

[@NativeInstruments]

Count on us 🕵🏻‍♂️

[@divinesoul7]

[@QAPT]

DJ Dahi one of my biggest inspirations!

[@yagursss]

Put his amazing creativity aside, The ENERGY of this guy is something else. Love u Dahi 👏

[@vancenichols9490]

Oh man! The song, workflow and exploitation of technology are all SO DOPE!!! Thanks for the presentation!! 😃

[@AveMcree]

Dude is legit

[@NativeInstruments]

More than legit 🔥

[@gokez.]

One of the greatest, always unique with the sound 🔥

[@sm-fm9kj]

I love how the guitar melody sounds like DJ Quick, “let’s get down.” A new twist; although, very nostalgic … 👍

[@SIKKYBEATS]

Man I've alwayed to peek at this mans process. Thanks NI!

[@mrbennett]

King Sikky. You're a beast yourself. I know you'll get your roses soon. Blessings.

Wonderful! This is certainly one of those videos which ignite the spark within 🔥

[@NativeInstruments]

Words ✨

[@techno-ology]

that vibe is pure quality

[@jaycole1900]

Dahi!!! Definitely a *MUST WATCH*

[@septembersoul5938]

Dahi is definitely one of my favorite producers in current times. He has his own sound. I don't think I've ever seen do a generic trap or drill beat, like a lot of current beat makers do. He also doesn't use fake 808 kits on everything. It's crazy to hear how many rappers basically use the same sounding beat over and over. There's obviously a bit of difference between trap/drill beats, but they mostly use the same rhthym, drum kit, and arpeggiated melody, with the same piano, pluck, bell, and sine or saw wave synth sound. These elements are 99.8% of all trap and 95% of drill. UK and NYC are at least doing different stuff. Florida has it's players too, but other than that Trap and Drill beats are corny and generic.

[@satyamr.3213]

Dahi is so underrated. Better than most beatmakers out there

[@j.p.r.o.d]

Die Videoreihe ist wild bitte weitermachen!!!!!!!!!!!! Grüße aus der Slesischen Straße :)

[@NativeInstruments]

Of course we continue 🚀

[@Art_Travel_and_Hobbys]

Dahi is dope... His creative process is similar to my own. 👊🏿👍🏿

[@pololee-james8347]

This guy. THIS guy. Wow, I loved the pockets but then what he did with his voice made me want to become this beat

[@krissifadwa]

I got into DJ Dahi after hearing "Peace + Happiness" by Dom Kennedy I was hooked to his production since lol

[@derricksmith4710]

Dahi I'm glad you use the letter system on your keys I received this tip from a KZbiner n it changed my life

[@illatraxzz103]

I heard Gravity by Brent Faiyaz and thought the beat was one of the greatest I've ever heard. Man is this guy good. He's kind of lowkey from the looks of the views on this video.

[@DigitalCrates]

legend!

[@TheBlackJewelz]

Wait, that piano and those guitar riff engines aren't on NOW are they??

[@NativeInstruments]

Indeed some plugins he's using are not included in Komplete Now, but the big part is 💪

@@NativeInstruments those were really dope, Noire and those guitars, I’m guessing those are standalones like Guitar Rig and others?…
