16 Variation Hacks Every Producer Needs

[@Alice-Efe]

Did you know bass sounds actually hack your brain? 🤔I deep dived into that rabbit hole in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4fbeotomaeVhpY

[@konstantinepope]

You have a true gift for teaching...as a person who has taught at the Royal College of Music, any of the top institutions in the world would be lucky to have you

[@Alice-Efe]

Awww thanks a ton! ❤️

[@alexphilipp]

With such content we have no any excuse for not making good music! Thank You!

[@simononthatb]

Alice, you're a real G! I don't even make techno but the way you touch different subjects is just too good! You explain the "Why" of things in a way that you can always get applicable knowledge to every single genre!

[@tumpperi3891]

2:32 That's not what I would consider voice leading is at least in the traditional sense and what's found in music theory books. Voice leading is usually referred that in harmony the "voices" travel as smoothly as possible (sometimes not at all) to the next note of the proceeding chord. For example, at 2:00 one could consider the chord is not being "voice led" optimally, since the voices of the chord (singular notes) are jumping quite a lot. Alternatively, at 2:08 the voice leading is quite smooth compared to the first example. We "achually" could argue that in the 2:32 example, the top voice is indeed traveling quite smoothly, but in the example, it functions more as a melody - I feel. I understand these are in a edm context, so maybe edm producers use terminology a bit different from what I am used to but for me personally, it was a bit confusing :) Sorry for the rant and the nerd moment, I think you have one of the most useful production-related KZbin channels!

[@Hogboy345]

You're right, that confused me too, that was more of a melody/rhythmic movement than voice leading.

[@Royvcent]

Haha I got a little confused here as well so immediately started looking for the comment that would point this out. Also, regarding the inversion part 1:49. If you inverse the bottom note of the chords, you' re actually also changing the chord. If you want to play the same chord it's best to copy the bottom note to an octave below.

[@rafaelaboth2314]

your tips are absolutely the best we have... there's so much content about music production on youtube, but the stuff you bring is really useful and works so much.💛much love Alice!

[@inspector_echo]

Voice leading in classical music is writing chords where the highest pitch notes lead into eachother, creating a melody on top over the chord progression. Think C Minor to Ab Major where the G of C Minor leads to the Ab, the root, of the next chord.

[@rogersourcemusic]

I am from Mexico City and I thank you very much for your videos. Your content has helped me a lot to be more careful with my productions, I have learned more with you than in my own school haha. Thanks for the video of how to make synthwabe from that moment I started to follow you in all your networks and keep watching your content. You are a very talented woman! Sorry for my English 😅

[@Alice-Efe]

Thanks a ton Rogelio! Hope you for the best with your school and your music production journey. 😊✌️

[@ELPEZPATO]

Desde tus primeros videos me impresionaron tus conocimientos. Es increíble lo fácil que haces todo, la manera de explicarlo es muy buena y el resultado final fantástico. Hacía mucho tiempo que youtube no me volvía a recomendar un video tuyo. Hacía mucho tiempo que no te veía. Eres mágica y me alegro mucho por ti. Tienes un alma maravillosa, se ve sin conocerte. Mucho ánimo y a seguir así.

[@ayCLAVITO]

2:38 says "báilalo" and "gózalo" in case you were wondering :)

[@julianjulianjulian380]

i dont like techno, but this tips can work in soooo many genres! i love your content :D

[@maphirotron]

I used pauses for my recent track. I like they very much :D Also used it earlier for other tracks.

[@DVBAS]

Very useful tips! I tend to overuse silent drops to restart loops, so I will definitely try the other two methods.

[@AdrianRodriguez-xb3wi]

I've been stuck lately with my music feeling like it's boring no matter what i make and how stale it feels, i needed this video thank you I'm gonna try these tips today

[@Rhythmattica]

Maybe trying to "live up" to what you expect, in some cases based on the music genre your aiming for, realise most times , a personal approach is best..... Actually don't use plugs ins or library's to create the base of your track... Sing , play bass... etc... Also , thats then the test... can you fit it into a genre, or is not just you? Making music should never be boring.. Because its always about "the Feels"

[@SashaSaPriz]

so many demos with different sound. great

[@AutPen38]

Alice isn't doing this for free. I presume that Output paid her a decent amount of money to feature their products in this video. It's good content. It's also sponsored content; an advert.

[@hippienoise]

[@magica2z]

Your music and tutorials are amazing. Thank you very much and you are so beautiful. ;-)

[@tomaszmazurek64]

Damn those tracks were hot. Thanks for all the tips. To give back, one transition trick I've recently found, I call it "the power of the one". Most of the time loops are a bit unstable and deliberately avoid hitting the one chord at the end to keep the momentum up. So I do specifically that - I hit a big fat one chord and the root notes on all instruments and hold it till it's obvious the loop stopped, then add a small drum flourish to keep the momentum going and then go into a new section. It's a bit like the silence transition, but with a different flavour.

[@DeepAmbientRhythmicKeys]

16 great hacks, thank you. I'm definitely gonna go try voice leading now

[@AutPen38]

Be sure to look up voice leading, because that wasn't it. I'd describe that technique as "vamping" or a "chord riff". It's basically the piano equivalent of what rhythm guitarists do when they tap and mute one or two strings in a rhythm instead of just playing a sustained chord.

[@thewintereaglefly]

the amount of knowledge you have in music is jaw dropping, w o w

[@Alice-Efe]

Hope that it helps other producers as well!

[@benjaminfrazer-synnott6640]

I need help with depth. I'm so terrible at it. I understand how reverb, delay, and even EQ and dynamics can effect depth. But i struggle with it so much. I want to create depth like this song: Devath - happy future He creates perfect depth and my stuff sounds terrible compared to it
