    Most important tip: don't crash your pc on FL studio trial

  • @BVK.
    The way you describe things are so interesting, it's awesome to hear and understand it that way of yours (for me).

    The dotted quarters resolving each bar is the tresillo rythm btw :) (The basic Reaggeton and Afropop rythms are both exactly this 3-3-2 pattern. Reaggaeton does it with Kick - snarish sound - Kick, and afropop does it with Kick - snarish sound - snarish sound)

    I'm working in FL STUDIO and there's an option where you can chop to 8th/4th/quarter notes by one click. Pretty handy qol function.😊 Pretty awesome tutorial and well insight into production techs. Your channel improved my craft pretty awesome. Keep up kicking out sick stuff like this ❤🎉 The last part gave me Aguru deadmau5 vibos😊

  • @fischergreen4134

  • @Asijantuntia
    Just wanted to say that I've been watching your videos for a few years now. They really reignited my passion for making music. I always found music theory extremely boring and thought I couldn't get better without learning it, so I stopped for years. These videos have taught me so many new things while still being entertaining to watch. Your enthusiasm and the attitude that even the simplest things can be really powerful made me want to start again. So thank you, keep up the awesome work!
