Hello everyone, this is my first post in the music community, I wanted to share with you this progressive house song that I made especially alluding to the hive blockchain, which helped me to boost my work and that of my brothers in the homestudio,
I will divide this post in two parts, the first one explaining what I did with each instrument, the second one I will show the final result, with the song uploaded to youtube with its respective cover.
Here is the video where I break down the song instrument by instrument.
The song is in Am, with a modal chord in the second bar, I started with the violins, which make a little arpeggio, then I wanted to jump directly to the drop, where I made the first chords of the lead.
When I do EDM or electronic music I like to start with the drop, because from there it's clearer how the intro and predrops can sound, so the next thing I did was to add some percussions like claps, and the shaker.
Then I wanted to give a better ambience to the beginning, so I added some effects like drums and impacts in the back.
The next thing I did was to complete the drop by adding three layers of kick, I added white noise, an open hihat, I wanted to make some cuts that sounded good so I re-scrambled the drop.
Finally what I did was to add some vocal chops so it didn't sound so empty, oh and I almost forgot I added a bass in the pre drop and the drop with a little sidechain in the chords and the bass to make the kick sound powerful, I also added that sound of a bird which you can appreciate well in the cut of the first bar.
What I'm looking for in this song is that it sounds fresh, and that the listener can connect with it, it's a short fragment, but if you like it I can finish the project.
Here I share with you the final result!
Personally the song transmits me a lot, euphoria, encouragement and desire to overcome, I hope you liked it as much as I did!
Health and love!! 👾👽
