00:17Whatnot if you're not
00:19Just check out this vid
00:21Before we get started make sure you check out the how to mix beats book brought to you by slang repeats our new book
00:30It's a real book with real mixing tips
00:33How to mix beats brought to you by slanger beats check it out
00:39That's one of the best book covers I've ever seen it's hard and
00:44Check it out. It's on the website
00:47Amazon wherever you want to buy it. It's there check it out how to mix beats brought to you by slanger and beats and
00:54Whatnot you know there's not too many beat making books in this industry, so I definitely recommend checking that out and
01:03We're gonna go ahead and use GMS today
01:08Like to mix things up GMS is nice, so we're gonna look for a sound
01:24So
01:29I'm gonna kind of touch on the black using the black keys today. Let's switch to the keyboard cam here
01:36Keyboard cam
01:38So
01:50What I'm doing here is
01:52I'm just hitting like every other note this piano theory, so I'm going like boom
01:58Boom hitting the black here
02:01I'm just like kind of skipping notes
02:05I'm using my ears to see like does it sound right?
02:08I can be kind of hard with this type of sound because
02:38I
02:47Want to play exactly like that
02:53Let's get that BPM in there, I'm just freestyling this video
03:08I
03:19Explain more
03:33God I can't say the BPM
03:38I
03:42Let's try to fix this so it sounds right
04:08Let's go
04:18Add some reverb convolver
04:29Default have a free love filter
04:32Move that to like that
04:36Give a quick melody
04:41We try to get another sound in there
04:46Alright, let's go. Let's pick a different sound or you choose a bass
04:52It's good, let's pick a different sound or you choose a bass
05:23You
05:42Go up
05:53Yeah
06:09If you need help ever with your basis, I recommend getting like a bass guitar
06:15That helped me play bass lines better
06:18It's best advice I could possibly give
06:22You
06:33Well, you just got I just kind of have a flow with it that's really like no special technique I'm using here
06:52You seems like it's a little bit later
07:14Sounds kind of weird
07:22You
07:35All right, let's just keep it rolling
07:38Sounds decent enough
07:41It's usually the standard right there that's the sound of these decent enough
07:46So we can cut out some of this high-end part
07:49You can just have it just be like bass, but does that sap the soul out of the sound
07:58Kind of like that buzz at the end
08:02It's cool
08:04It's cool
08:17All right, I don't know where I'm going with this bro, I don't know where I'm going with this at all
08:27See if we can add another melody type of sound just keep building the melody sound
08:34You
08:57Okay, let's do like a drum pattern first I can kind of get this on rhythm here
09:04All right, let's get some sounds over here beat butcher
09:24It's been so off
09:34I don't know why it sounds like it's so weird
10:04You
10:34I
10:57Don't know what happened to this is so weird
11:04I
11:17Would like to see where this beats even going dude at this point
11:34I
11:53Okay, like certain parts sound right like the second half of the beat actually sounds right
12:04All right, maybe we just start this like here
12:35I
12:43So weird
12:55Okay
13:04Oh
13:12Yeah
13:24Yeah
13:34Oh
13:42Yeah
13:48Okay, I don't know what is it about dog
13:53What's video about that's a real question
13:58What is this video about?
14:01Beat making yeah me freestyling casually
14:07Yo, I mean to sniff like that my bad I made this beat I was kind of glad it turned out well, oh
14:17Yeah, call my clientele
14:20Beats for sale
14:22Had a mix be so well
14:25Read it through look at you begin better rhymes clever
14:31I'm reading this book. Yeah, it's really good. You should take a look. Yeah
14:37Off the hook. Yeah, you're a no I'm about to flow out to go place never been before
14:44Here we go. Now. We know
14:49Now we know
14:51I'm about to
14:53Read a book
14:55Not really, you know how long it took to write this thing. Oh, man only stunner knows
15:05That's a joke
15:07For sure
15:10Here we go. How long is he gonna freestyle? Oh, oh, no
15:15I'm about to go in again. I'm about to get it for the win. Here we go
15:22I'm about to shower. I'm not done. Save this beat
15:30Let's get it
15:32All right
15:34time out
15:35time out
15:37All right
15:38This beat is good. All right
15:42Obviously it needs to be mixed still
15:44We can make like the kicks hit harder
15:47for example
15:49And
15:51Then in the snare
15:54But like
15:56Let's note how it sounds right now
15:59Obviously compression drums. Oh
16:05Now it gets kind of bouncy
16:09But depends where you want to go with it, I mean
16:13Depends if that's what you're looking for
16:16Well, obviously like I need to turn it down before I even put it in this
16:27Okay, I've just been where that's even better or not I
16:33Watch the footage. I watch the footage
16:35Sometimes I watch I watch a video to see what I could have done differently the beat
16:39Like watching yourself play a sport or something
16:41All right, mates
16:44We can add more to this Mazda just keep going and those videos may be off-topic
16:55Freestyle some
16:56Talk about melodies. What else can we do here?
16:59All right. What do we use a GMS? Let's just keep the GMS train rolling. Oh, yeah for all of you
17:04I think you can't make a beat with GMS
17:06Showed it please showed it, please
17:14I
17:16Sometimes I cringe at my own videos
17:20Seriously for show
17:22Probably watch this one later and be like, why did I say that?
