This is a useful way to think about constructing background plucky sounds for use in your music. Patch included.

Making Retro/Vintage Brass Synth Sounds in Serum 2

Here's the fundamental concepts behind a lot of "chord" sounds and brassy synths used in about a million styles of music but mainly funk, pop, and house music. It's important to know how to make sounds like this, as they can turn into countless other sounds.

(Unedited) Playing with Serum 2

Just me messing around this morning. Will do more structured tutorials in the future.

Thank you

I just want to thank all of you for being here. I have really needed this sense of community and engagement with the music scene after years of feeling very in my own lane and not quite like the others. It’s doing wonders for my excitement and I have learned that I really love teaching, or communicating complex ideas in digestible ways. Thanks again. Another video upload tomorrow.

SERUM 2 DEEP DIVING x FEEDBACK STREAM

Hey there! Deep diving into Serum2 for the first time. Then giving some feedback to patrons who have submitted music.(updated to include what we made)

SUBMIT FEEDBACK STREAM SONGS HERE

Soundcloud only please. Will go over a few of them tomorrow after the production section of the stream!

STREAM SCHEDULE UPDATE

Starting tomorrow, all weekly streams will happen on Tuesdays at 12pm Noon Pacific time. VODS will be made available afterwards as well, so if you can't make it, you won't miss out. Feedback on submitted songs will take place at the end of these streams, so as not to interrupt the writing process! I will change the listed tier benefits of rat but better to include feedback stream submissions as i believe that warrants no increase at the c...

Music Feedback Stream

For the Rat But Better Tier, I'm going to be hosting a monthly music feedback stream where I listen to and CONSTRUCTIVELY critique music you're working on, if that is helpful to you :) It will be on Tuesdays, I'll nail down a working calendar for the Patreon shortly! Thanks for your patience as I get this thing up and running at a pace that is sustainable for me.

Making Not Boring Sub Bass in serum.

Hello from a hotel room in Phoenix (when I recorded this yesterday) I thought it could be fun to try and show you how to make a cool DnB-ish sub bass that could inspire you to play around with texture in your low end. (i didn't do it in the video, but i'd definitely make the very low end mono at the end)

5 Writing Concepts I Personally Believe In

This is the actual way I think and write my music. MotifThe core repeating idea should be an unforgettable ear-worm. This can be achieved with texture or melody or both across the arrangement. This is what makes a song last forever.CohesionThe arrangement and its sound should all work together to sell the core idea, and sometimes that includes breaking the cohesion rule purposefully to establish the idea. The feeling has to be right above all el...

Small Writing Session this AM

Hey all, while I am watching my kiddo who is home sick, here's me trying to move forward on a possible single in the meantime. I'll catch up with uploads this week once Little guy is back at school.

A Sincere question

If I were to create some sort of purchasable and targeted video course that explains certain processes or like an overall guide to making X or y would that be something anyone was interested in? Not like my avant masterclass but more like a study of the actual fundamental processes themselves one by one

Checking in.

Hey there, just letting you all know what's going on behind the scenes with the Patreon this week! I meant to record a video on 5 essential processes that help me every song, but I was traveling and preparing for shows, so it got postponed until monday/tuesday. I'm working on a big batch of samples for the month for my producer subscribers, and those are nearly done. I estimate thursday. Livestream on Tuesday this week is what im aiming f...
