Style Guide: House - Part 2 (Making a House Track in Ableton Live)

Wicked video. Great educator. The history is so interesting a relevant. Much appreciated.

So glad he left Eastenders and focused on music production for the masses!!🤪

He’d be a powerful lover.

This is watching a Master at work 🤙🏽💯

Wow! This is very inspiring.

Amazing video

Super!

automation? sips coffee i think you mean modulation XD

So Thankful for finding this.

I’ve got the ideas in my head but not the gear or the ability to use it! I’ll stick with my SL1200s 🧐

Yeah and this boys and girls is the difference between a person that lives and breathes electronic music and knows things through experience. And that of a person who thinks they know and understand, but really just copy, paste what others do. Similar results, but you are stuck in a loop and with using kits, presets or vst and you have little room for improvement. The key points that set apart pro vs newbie:
1) the human factor (subtle or not so subtle differences in a single sample, timing)
2) how to do it, but not over-do it (beats vs melodies)
3) if a preset isn't pleasing enough, don't try and make it work, get the right sample!
4) understand composition and how a small change on a sample can do better or more, than adding another sample (masking vs mixing)

thank you

house eno

Ty I got my first divine because of you

all workеd

I wish its get work

now i am in a good mood

ITS REALLY WORKED LOL THANK YOU DUDE

Awesome program

James is a gentleman, I’ve met him a couple of times, very humble and was happy to chat music with me.

This is great, thank you!

This was so helpful!! Thank you

Who knew Phil. Mitchell was such a house expert?!

Except that it's 1000x more complicated that what it seems

Well done Sir, an excellent example well executed. Thank you.

Respect...!

Thank you for talking about how to get the attack on the 909. I have been frustrated trying to achieve that sound.

LEGEND!!!!

In 1980s, you only need to press couple of keys on 909 analog drum machine to create groove.
In 2020s, you need a lot of "mouse work" on a computer which is more powerful than the one used to sent human kind to the moon.
And we call it PROGRESSION.

Been making music since 2009 and then I took a massive break for 5 years. Seeing this video and going over the basics again is refreshing and motivating. Great video to anyone getting into house music production or just production in general. Simple explanations, great tips and important knowledge.

So informative, thanks a lot!

all workеd

original 909 = classic smooth house . transient modern kick = edm trash

I’ve been doing this for twenty years and I feel like I need to start all over after seen this fantastic tut.

It's happened a few times where I wasn't sure about a piano patch, until I tried house, then I try some of my otherwise favorite pianos and it's just not the vibe.
Nice and simple variation you can use without getting rid of that dotted note bassline sound, use the shorter note that normally comes at the end sooner, can also try that when a dotted rhythm starting on 1 just doesn't groove with the rest.

it work on my pc thx bro vеry much

I dоwnloaded everything is okay

good work king, love you

The knowledge right here 🙏

Funny how I discover the best tutorials five years after they were made. I have always had an issue with the 909 kick. I'm not exactly sure how to "weld" the attack from another kick on to it but at least I noticed that there was something missing from the 909 kick.

Just found this now and I never really comment, but now i wanted to say something because you deserve it
It's amazing how concise, profound and easy digestible content you are creating. If I had found this 5years ago. I would have started producing 5years ago.

You have a soul and voice of a teacher 😄

Its Always funny to see all those machines just turned on but never used in most videos)

no one wanna see dark room with one pc + daw) 🙃

Thanks

909's are my way to go with drums. Been using emulating drum machines for that.
This video (and part one of) are really good.
Cheers to everyone using 909's out there.

This guy is amazing, loved both parts of these videos but can anyone explain how he changed the decay on all of the hats to make that hat rhythm

Good oral voice quality, terrible sound from the speakers. Bad video engineering.

Thanks! This is really well done :) But, as I'm Norwegian, I have to tell you Todd Terje is not from New York! He's Norwegian! :D haha

What a legend. He's got the passion for what he does and does it so well. The best drum programming tutorial I've seen, simply explained but also with the added insight into why working this way will give you an instantly recognisable house flavour!
