That video is exactly what I needed. I'm a beginner (1 week) and I built a nice song and a nice drop but I couldn't figure out how to do it or what's needed. So Big Thanks to you brother!

[MilesHoppus]

That edit towards the end was amazing lol

[TheLastMoomin]

Haha the drop was received well in that bar.

These the type of videos I like when my brain just turns mush. Instant inspiration. Even though I've made lots of tracks before, I kinda sometimes forget the process of making a edm track😂

[bassManDavis]

Alex, that was unbelievable! Wow! Learnt so much in just 8 minutes, look forward to all your lessons so much.! Thank you

[buckycore]

Making custom downers and risers with synths or other samples is hella fun. This tutorial was the best ever. It broke all the elements down in a perfect way

[citvdelblvck]

bro that edit made my day, thank you for making these videos.

[CoolGuy-uxwx]

This is awesome. I'll add something like this to some of my songs.

[tantaloss]

Ah. I was doing most of this instinctually before, but it helps to actually know what I'm doing now so I can better manipulate it. Thanks man!

[JakeDavies]

Alex, your videos are so so good for getting to grips with creating EDM, I get blown away with every video. I do a lot of orchestral music with piano, but I'm looking at getting into the EDM genre! Your content is awesome! May just have to grab Orbital soon! Take Care

[ScarlettShepard]

Awesome! You make it look so easy. I am going to try.

[paperid]

You are the one who share everything 😂 thanks for doing this and your videos are fun, better and entertaining to watch nowadays.

[jimmyjohnny]

[dianat.]

Best teacher on youtube for this stuff

[Fusionmusic]

I followed your Spotify man your songs are 🔥fr

[AM-ojxl]

Hey man, thanks for the video. Great stuff. Was curious what you do for your second build typically? If you change it or not. It usually seems like my second build needs something different than the first.

[AaronFerenc]

Haha! And the crowd goes nuts! Nice video!

[poliotree]

Yo!!!! Man, thank you bro, you're song is fire!!!
