Here are some quick tips on creating a kick and bass line that work well together!
So this month I’m trying out 2 vids a week. Monday and Wednesday is gonna be a quick tip. I’m taking excerpts from some of my older vids, my courses, as well as throwing in some brand new material.
Each Friday will – as always – be a brand new vid.
I really appreciate the support you’ve all given me over the past (almost) 5 years, and I’d absolutely love to hit 100,000 subscribers this year.
When that happens, I’ll be giving away a brand new MacBook Pro, loaded with software for music production (probably Ableton 11 Suite and a few other choice plugins), as well as some top quality headphones and a MIDI controller.
Hope you enjoy this vid, and catch you on Wednesday!
