This Is What $7400 Sounds Like

[@chairmanmaf]

Jon is the Bob Ross of beatmaking videos

[@jonmakesbeats]

I am a beatmaking video

[@atetraxx]

​@@jonmakesbeats happy little chops

[@joemomma6317]

Scarily accurate

[@ThomasQuitter]

I was just thinking the same thing! 😅

[@Eight-Bit-Hustler]

I was thinking the same thing! His happy tree moments are when he’s dialing in his slice points on chopped samples! 😂

[@hevvyserve]

title correction: this is what 7500 dollars / 20 plus years of dedication / and unmeasurable natural talent sounds like

[@jonmakesbeats]

Love how you adjusted the price to reflect the additions. I am worth 100 dollars

[@burnerzeroone-o8p]

bump

[@AykesMusic]

@@jonmakesbeats you're priceless

[@SlaserX]

Or you could take the more budget route and get a MPC X for $1k and a Polybrute 6 for $1400 and skip the chroma console for a total of $2400. Does the same thing.

[@jameshall1075]

@SlaserX Show me an X for $1,000

[@paradockz]

TFW you think he's flexing money in the title, but as soon he starts talking you realize it's the same good ole Wateronshirt we know and love, just creaming all over the place.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Money is just to get people to click. Once they realize that doesn’t matter, they’re vibing

[@iamtoxicbabe]

@@TheFreakingpandalol this man's has so much love for the game and helping people / sharing information about beats and music in general. he wants to uplift you and you want to tear him down. reprioritize your life.

[@iamtoxicbabe]

@ eh. this, or something that very much sounds like this could be made on an ipad or phone with koala, and a couple plugins.

[@jonmakesbeats]

@@TheFreakingpandaI think you’re misunderstanding my viewpoint. I never said expensive gear doesn’t matter. I clearly prefer using what I have. But what I do say is what I’m doing can be accomplished on a computer (which it can, because I do it all the time for commercial work). There isn’t anything I’m doing that cannot be done with some plugins and a DAW.

[@SongIn60Seconds]

It’s gotta be said: Your locks are popping today.

[@kermitthefrayer]

Locks and Socks!

[@MadDgtl]

there's a joke about popping and locking in there somewhere

[@jdaddyaz]

Wonder if he's related to John Locke?

[@danskizz7272]

First thing I thought when I started the video! Man's found some great conditioner 😅 Glad to see the KZbin-monies is being well spent!

[@BIGpony777]

this is one of my favorite ones yet- i always used to introduce my friends to your music under the guise you were done- i am so happy i get to see you blow my mind on youtube so often this channel is a dream!!!

[@jonmakesbeats]

It’s a huge positive in my life now

[@BIGpony777]

@ that makes me so happy man- some things work out in this world!

[@OgTRK-rp9dx]

You're really improving at this! I feel like you're communicating the whole beatmaking process much more clearly now

[@jonmakesbeats]

Every video schnoodle and I get better at telling the story in less than 10 minutes, I think

[@qiguaimusic]

You do ​@@jonmakesbeats

[@gibbro-j7f]

Oh shit, it's my favorite producer, Wateron Shirte! How do you always get the best people?

[@jonmakesbeats]

The Rolodex is thick

[@Morkhs]

Yo dude, just wanted to say I lost track of your work after rap album two and it's so cool to randomly stumble on your channel these beats are everything, much bigger than gold clouds

[@jonmakesbeats]

Welcome!

[@elliotreid3444]

This past year, each one of your videos has been the 10 most content and quiet-minded minutes I experience each week. The love and passion in the music you make is inspirational and almost tangible. You have a beautiful talent and are making the world better by sharing it.

[@JUGSOSA]

I wanna start making videos like you so bad, expressing yourself through raw creation in live time is truly a dream. I may have only shorts right now, but with time I will achieve my ideal reality! Thank you for being the biggest inspiration, keep the beat tape rollin!

[@jonmakesbeats]

Good luck on your journey

[@DiegoGomez-mi4xd]

That beat is perfect por these cold days. Sounds like watch the rain fall in a peaceful noon. Thanks for your art. Love from Veracruz, Mexico.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for watching

[@schnoodlevideo]

and this is what $7400 (of editing equipment) looks like! thanks for watching everyone, had a blast cutting this one :)

[@vinylarchaeologist]

You still edit on an Avid workstation from 1997?

[@dadboard]

Damn using those sabbath drums as a texture almost like record crackling was such a pro move. I didn’t see your vision at first and was rooting for the first break you tried but you made it work so well. This one was probably top 3 for me.

[@IAmThaRealJAM]

This may be one of my faves so far. Really nice as always JMB!

[@penorf]

This is one of my favorite videos of yours! Really great music this episode.

[@SunshineVRC]

You have, very quickly, become my favorite channel on KZbin. Thank you for these videos!

[@mothershipco]

This channel rules Jonathan. Been a big fan of your music for years, and when I came across this channel as a new beatmaker, I instantly subbed and now its on in the background while I work. My favorite part of your process, is hearing your reasoning and thought process on why you're making your creative decisions. Very cool and different than anything else I see when trying to research how to learn and get into beatmaking. I loved your video about how passion is the number one thing for new beatmakers to remember, and seeing this channel got me inspired and passionate to jump into actually using all the cool ipad DAWs i've downloaded but kept putting down because I didn't know where to start. Thanks for that. I wouldn't want to learn from anyone else. Your honesty and realness make it more approachable, as every other persons videos I watch, have frustrating ad breaks and sponsored segments that make it seem like the intention of the channel is profit vs sharing the best info people want to hear. I'm in love w/ the channel.

[@adamshatwell]

love that lead sound that sounds like someone whistling over the beat, i really like the fast workflow on the Akai, I might have to invest

[@jonmakesbeats]

The Polybrute is fire

[@robbonarlaw]

Your beats have kept me company for a long time, what a wonderful surprise to find your channel. Soul-nourishing stuff 🧠🥪

[@StuartMawdsley]

You cracked the code ! Wateron Shirt III, what an esteemed gentleman! 😂 brava! I'd have never guessed this one 😢😅 I like the beat Jon, its chill. Just what I needed, thanks mate

[@FireAtWill253]

EVERY video you drop I watch RIGHT away and every single time I open my DAW right after watching. love your videos! youre an inspiration to us all

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for watching. Glad to know the vids inspire you

[@gabesafool]

Always love the array of producers you bring on the show!

[@jonmakesbeats]

It’s a family affair

[@michaelperrine1117]

Since I started following you this is by far my favorite. Memorable track. Hope this one gets used and shared with more people. Thanks for sharing brother

[@nathmukherjee8865]

God damn this was amazing! Videos like these show how much of a master you really are at your craft ! Thanks for sharing

[@OllieBlack-k8q]

Love how much fun you and your crew are having with these videos Jon. Super inspiring ❤

[@Kaon-music]

Continuingly bringing the heat, thanks for sharing with us!

[@21CHIMES]

Man I'm so happy I saw you perform live in Hamburg a few years ago

[@jessebabesse]

These videos are refreshing and spark me with so much creativity. I really appreciate it!

[@deathhaunts]

wow that poly brute sounds and looks beautiful. wild heat dude! happy holidays brohemian

[@mrcolemr]

What's dope about your video is your explaining what you're feeling and doing while you do it, as opposed to other people who just press and turn knobs and expect you to just follow along. 👍🏾👍🏾

[@ElectronisoundsAudio]

SKILLLLLLZZZ!! What a vibe on this one! 💙💙

[@beauchampy]

I've been nonchalantly watching your channel for a couple of weeks now. I just noticed your voice sounds kinda familiar, and NO SHIT - jonmakesbeats is Jonwayne! God damn man, I've been listening to you for years!

[@jsea56]

When you come in with that last synth, takes it to a whole other world. The texture of this beat is so nice it’s like a synapse massage.

[@Anotherundercover]

This is absolute 🔥. Loving the sounds and the feel of this one!

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for listening

[@atg-alexanderthagreatmusic1791]

Thanks for the inspiration to keep up with MPC One been loving it akai is so epic !

[@OTR392]

great vibes bro!

[@philusschwiftikusreaction]

This is probably Wateronshirts best Beat. If he ever thinks to start rapping, this beat would be lit (i kinda think his talking voice is already so fitting on this beat)

[@williamillington]

That synthesizer is not effin around! A man with good character 🎩

[@salientfilm]

ayyyyy. !! keep creating and inspiring!

[@TeddyBaas]

This is my favorite channel lol I can watch you make beats all day man 👊 the beat sounds like Kill Bill meets Donkey Kong, love it

[@tom_rispoli]

Phenomenal performance my man. Keep it up!

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks Tom!

[@PiotrstrashcanŚmietnikPiotra]

Oh man, that was gorgeous! Very nostalgic, took me straight to 80s where there was so much great music on Atari or Amiga computers...

[@jonmakesbeats]

Let’s goo

[@blobmusica]

you are a great inspiration Jon. Bless you man !

[@skidogleb]

CONGRATS ON 100K JON! AND BE SAFE YOU DA BRAIN.

[@prone0ne]

[@SteveSwerve]

Crazy dope textures you got goin here brother

[@jonmakesbeats]

[@raynv0]

[@TheMidnightBandit]

This is incredible!! Holy cow!!

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for watching!

[@user-vd3if4wq6m]

Bro your really original, an great song writing/voice shaping, killing it. You could def sell this track

[@mousethefoo1230]

This was so dope love it!

[@onnaquest]

Sounds amazing. I'm anxiously awaiting the 10 hour long Orchid video

[@MACRONOne]

The workflow is on point, dope

[@IHGOTBEATS]

This is fire Jon!

[@tonyanderson8009]

Jesus dude. Your music is incredible.

[@Smoggeebear]

This beat is amazing, nice work ad always legend

[@WrongSo]

Love the vibe!

[@jonmakesbeats]

Cheers

[@vagueversatile]

Dope video! The title has some TE vibes, you could almost round to 10k with an OP-XY

[@dvamateur]

Including the Teenage Engineering Field Desk.

[@YoutubeUser256]

There’s plenty of expensive equipment out there. Not sure why you’re hating on TE under a completely unrelated video.

[@dvamateur]

@@KZbinUser256 Not really hating on TE. We thank Teenage Engineering for being around, so that if we buy a Minimoog, Sequential, or Oberheim, we feel like we're getting wonderful equipment for bargain prices.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Would love to check out an OP-XY

[@dvamateur]

@@jonmakesbeats Reminds me of Reggie Watts, performing on an OP-1. Good for satirical value.

[@trutheretic]

love your videos man

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thank you for watching

[@Bloor005]

I call this style "Lullaby Hop". Its got all those relaxed lofi hip hop sounds but with nostalgic and reassuring tones.

[@jonmakesbeats]

I can see that for sure

[@evenstephen8288]

What a warm and comfy beat! It feels nostalgic.

[@jonmakesbeats]

I felt the same

[@johndecelles]

This one is special, it’s so good bro! Always love your videos man if you had a master class I’d be first to sign up

[@jonmakesbeats]

I’ll keep that in mind!

[@Andreslovesun]

You beautiful soul, I’m loving the content the vibe and the music thank you 🎈

[@bebussound7991]

Automatic head bopping, this is so fucking fire, especially the drums holy shit I love that texture

[@jons.exhaust]

Classic, classic Mr. Shirte beat. Only the best producers on this channel.

[@jonmakesbeats]

The vetting process is real

[@gmanyos]

Awesome! What a nice surprise to stumble on this video

[@mlou4902]

It sounds like the type of production Evidence has gone for in his most recent work. Like it was straight out of vinyl. Awesome work!

[@SmudgerTWR]

Beautiful sounds ❤

[@prodbyWaxPoet]

This is unreal, Wateron Shirte. Absolutely beautiful sound

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for watching

[@E_X_H_U_M_E_D_06]

Man that was nice, thank you Jon.

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for watching

[@panskibinski]

that might be the most expensive setup ever for lo-fi beats :D

[@bigwesmusic]

Benny feat Jazmine! Dope vid bro!!!

[@CaseyChisholmOfficial]

love your work in general but this beat really hit the spot

[@jonmakesbeats]

I appreciate that

[@yuca2k1]

Fire as always

[@beatroot_red]

Dope AF, again

[@jupart5040]

lol bro I love the Wateron MPC reflection

[@mrnatevevo]

congrats on 100k!

[@Mar-kl5lc]

This really reminds me on "Terror Reid - Spineless" it is unreal. Great content as per usual.

[@DamnnnDarius]

Happy to see u using the mpc

[@SiahNide7]

Oh shit jonwayne! I'm still bumpin groundislava. I saw you at low end theory a rip ago, glad to find you on KZbin bro 👍

[@double0double0]

Thanks for creating bro ❤

[@eliotgardner1856]

Got a bit of a Nosaj Thing thing goin here. Much love Jon

[@yousjiveturkey]

You should totally collab with Jon Breaks Bad News

[@Vespyro]

Bro that moment at 4:26 was perfect, got chills

[@jonmakesbeats]

Hell yeh

[@ennote91]

Ouch ouch it hurts from being so hot

[@hugevibez]

MPC-X in to Tascam 388 is a great idea. Nice and simple workflow for building out tracks and sounds great. Though with the new MPCs you are definitely going a step beyond dawless, I call it more a DAW-in-a-box. Not that that's bad, potentially a lot less headaches over a true dawless set-up with a lot of the benefits.

[@dlprofitt]

Dude, that's fire!

[@jonmakesbeats]

Thanks for listening

[@dabeatkitchen]

Donkey Kong 2024 Aquatic Ambiance

[@jonmakesbeats]
