DNB WORKSHOP - FULL SONG, START to FINISH, MADE IN 4.5hrs
Added 2022-03-17 17:37:30 +0000 UTCHi my friends. I'm super proud to be able to share this with you! I had a deadline yesterday for a remix for Steve Aoki that I let slip through the cracks and had to crush out fast af.
It is really hard sometimes to make a full track - or anything even resembling it - in a timely manner, but I was able to get this done in just over 4 and a half hours. Started working around 7:30 and finished up right after noon. I know a few of you have been asking for something just like this!
What is nice about this is that it is a full production. From no idea at all to finished product in 4.5 hours. If you have any questions about my processes, this should be able to answer them by demonstration.
As usual I went ahead and timestamped the significant areas so you can easily jump into which part you'd like to see.
Hope this is helpful to some of you!
