How To Make Bass House in Logic Pro, inviting brand new tutor Codes to the party as he takes us from start to finish on how he built his track ‘Baby’. Hailing from New York, Codes has been slanging club records to the underground for sometime now and with funky sample-flipping productions along with releases on Dirtybird, Night Bass, STMPD, This Ain’t Bristol, IN/ Rotation, Psycho Disco and Country Club Disco and the launch of his own label ‘Holy Molé’, the future’s looking pretty good for Codes right now. Using Logic Pro X Codes crafts this dope disco-esque funky track featuring Shoshannah’s enduring vocals for some feel-good house vibes from scratch.
Christain produced one of the highest rated courses on the site this year, and we just had to ask him back for an end of year blowout. Here he delivers a stormin ‘How To Make Groovy Techno’ His trademark darkness gets a lift with a funky element bassline and pounding drums. We watch as Christian goes through in detail his project setup, programmes a monster techno kick in Kick 2 and then creates bass layers using ANA to add a groovy drive to the track. As is usual, this is a no-nonsense, straight to the point course, that delivers on learning, tips, tricks and wicked production techniques!
Do you write music but don’t know how to get artists to record it or have it placed in film, TV, advertising etc? If you have been writing and recording songs and you would like to start making money from them, this course is for you. Music publishing can seem hard to break into, but in this course you will find out that it’s possible for songwriters at various stages of their careers to have songs placed with artists and used in film, TV and other media by using online platforms and finding reputable companies in the music industry to work on your behalf. We will also look at self publishing. This is everything you need to know about music publishing in one place.
Techno legend for an all-new Ableton based ‘How To Make’ course and this time he’s taking a no-nonsense approach by building a driving, energetic Big Room Techno track. With just five main elements – kick, bass, synth, an 808 kit and a drum loop Christian builds this track from scratch, and as with all of his tutorials he utilises Ableton’s racks to modulate and manipulate the different sounds so there’s a constant flow of frequencies, velocities, delays and reverbs to keep the track moving, interesting and energetic. Unlike most other club tracks there are no specific breakdowns, build-ups and drops in this track, however with slick use of filter automation Christian cleverly manages to create those ‘hands-in-the-air’ moments in this driving, brooding classic. Another super accessible course for all abilities from a true professional. Take your skillz to the next level and check it out!
