Hey everyone how are you going?? As some of you may know i'm making my own tutorials covering dance music production if not you can check out some of my videos over here recently I thought that it might be good to do some videos of me making a track from start to finish.
The first series of videos I have made is covering me making a bass heavy tech house track. If there is anything I cover that you don't understand or if you would like something explained better feel free to leave a comment on the video.
Enjoy
Craig
p.s if I get some good response I will be making more covering some over styles in dance.

hey there thanks for the nice comments i'm glad you like the series and I hope you get something out of it.
To phazedown I can totally see where you are coming from. I must say for the amount of work and time taken to complete the videos it far out ways any promotion that I gain. I'm not going to lie I have received some more followers but the main reason that i'm doing it is so people starting out can learn something to help them on there music making journey. I have learnt a bunch from youtube so I kind of thought that it would be good for me to pay it forward.
I totally agree with you that you need to take the time to try things out and find your own sound. I do also know that when I started I didn't know where to start. I didn't know where to start when it cam to synthesis or drum programming so I think it's nice that people can see how a track is made for free.
Keep rocking
Craig

hey craig,
really good tutorials you got there! I really appreciate the effort and work you put into this.
Would be pretty cool, if you could cover some deeper genres of house music.
Lookin forward to that
Keep up the good work and greetings from Germany!

Going by the time on your post you haven't watched the videos, so it's more a knee jerk response than feedback.phazedown wrote:Appreciate your work, experience (see there are lots of releases, yes respect) and ambition. But here is my feedback:
What's the difference between a youtube video and the harmonielehre of old?

Thank you everyone for the nice comments. I had not really got much of a response other than people wanting the Logic session.
I'm going to start a new series covering the future techno sound (NT89, Burns and Evil Nine)
The track is going to be a acid track (I have been playing around with a couple of patterns) and i'll be hoping to incorporate some of my analog gear.
Keep rocking
