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?

17:26I
