How To Make A Song Like Harry Styles (As It Was, Late Night Talking, Cinema) | Make Pop Music

Подробнее о видео

In this video, Austin breaks down how to produce, write, and mix a record in the style of Harry Style's new album, Harry's House. The song that is created is a fun, upbeat, indie pop record similar to Harry's "As It Was", "Cinema", and "Late Night Talking." This video will break down how to write chord progressions for this style, how to program realistic vintage sounding drums and bass, how to layer synths to create simple but huge sounds, how to record, layer, and mix vocals for this genre, and how to tweak a mix to sound more warm and retro.
