The wait is finally over, and we’re super excited to launch one of our most detailed and epic courses to date as we bring you How To Make Deep Progressive House! In this awesome six and half-hour course Matt recreates his incredible brand new track ‘Shimmer’ from his forthcoming album entirely from scratch. Focussing on the songwriting first and foremost, he records live guitar and bass before moving into Pro Tools where we use ANA 2 to recreate synth hardware patches he made in the original. We get a detailed look at how Matt deals with vocals in a separate session before diving into the multi-layered drums and percussion, where even recordings of vegetables are thrown into the mix! There’s further recreative sound design in ANA 2 which adds call-and-response bass lines before we arrange the track, add unique transition FX and time-stretched vocals and then mix the track down so it’s ready to be sent off for mastering.

Making Samples Your Own

With sampling techniques forming the basis of so much of today’s music, having a trusted sample collection to hand is a great way of speeding up your workflow and defining your sound. On this course from experienced producer and sound designer Seppa, you’ll learn an abundance of methods for modifying samples in various ways, to polish the sound or create completely unique textures of your own. The course begins by transforming a vocal sample into an atmospheric FX soundscape using parallel delay chains and spectral resonance, as well as a modified version that maintains more of the character of the original sample. A regular piano is then used as the source for a modulating, filtered lead, perfect for the intro or breakdown of a track. Seppa then builds an effects chain for processing various drum breaks, to tend to the dynamics, transients and spectral content, so they’re 100% ready for dropping into a track. On a more radical note, simple drum oneshots are run through multiple randomised devices to completely mix things up and produce endless captivating moments, ideal for making interesting fills and adding excitement to an arrangement.
