I'm not really a beginner any more but I still just had to watch this video, because you never know when you're still going to learn something, but you've made this video so clear that if I was beginning, this is basically a perfect place id want to start, nice work Sir!

I've been producing EDM for roughly 5 years, i am not the greatest but i have been able to get an unreleased (yet coming soon 😉) track signed to a smaller label and i recently started watching edm tutorials especially more of your videos because i never wanna stop learning and by watching these videos I've learned alot more than i knew years ago! These videos have been really helpful and my entire perspective aswell as a big percentage of how i produce has changed immensely for the better 🤙🏻 Thank you for all the advice ❤️‍🔥

A great tip for reference tracks is to sketch out the arrangement in the DAW using labels and then you can have a good visual reference for when certain elements come in and go out.

Great guide! You explained everything really well. I'm from Poland, 17 years old, and I've been interested in electronic music basically since I was a kid. In 2015, I started listening to some trap, Troyboi, and so on, but then it quieted down a bit. In 2018, I discovered DJ Timmy Trumpet, and I fell in love with EDM because of him. In 2020, I became more interested in techno and house, and that's when Hardwell spoke to me. I knew about him before, but that's when everything started for me, and that's how I fell in love with techno. I like those dark, strong, and energetic beats. I also want to start making music. There aren't many tutorials like yours on Polish YouTube, so I'm glad I found you. I hope I'll succeed. Thank you again!

Hi Will, have you ever thought about making a video about the different types of electronic music and how to identify them? I think it would be very helpful! I love your channel btw

Yeah, I like this approach for beginners. I still use it and I always get something worth working on. I take it one step further: I change the percussion samples and I tune them (with EQ peak filters or with pitch shifting; instead of reducing resonant frequencies, I *strengthen* them). Then, that gives me ideas for a melody. After that, the rest just falls in place.

I've been practicing for a year now and have been frustrated with my progress... That's when I realized that I need to just master the fundamentals and basics before I can get more complicated. I'll be analyzing the beginning steps for now.

THank you. This is the best channel for aspiring music producers and watching your videos makes me feel like I can do this.

Thanks for the video. Proves that if you take an idea 💡 review it and apply it to an existing tune, you can make your own kinda music 🎶
