Hey Lucas! Thank you for sharing this with us. Do you have Instagram? I’m an independent artist and would love to connect with you to discuss music production.

👏👏👏

Love watching. Your process Lucas great tune

Nice first steps!

I appreciate you sharing your process with such an intention here. I’ve never been a super political person, but Trump‘s big inauguration fiasco has really been a wake up call for me. I also feel compelled to say something direct about what’s going on in America, but I’m literally writing lyrics for the last song I’ve been working on for a new album. Why do I always feel like my current music project is not quite current enough to reflect what I’m thinking about?

Hmm..you know I love your music. You mentioned you only learned about some of the stuff you talked about - well you didn’t get very specific, Cobalt red cameo is a good one though, I recommend the JRE episode with the author - recently so I‘ll try to be less upfront as I‘d usually be. But man, I don’t know what kind of rabbit holes you went down on but it‘d be sad to lose another brilliant musician to the leftist democrat cult. Got enough of those in the A-list tier with Taylor Swift etc. Trump was the positive vote. Literally 99% of what‘s bad on this planet the elite politics class that‘s trying to „save you from the oh so bad billionaires“ is responsible for. Please, if I can recommend you one book to read it‘d be Principles of Economics by Safedean Ammous. I can send you a free ebook or audio book if you want. You think you‘ve learned some of what’s going on in the world? Wait till you learn what fiat money does to our society, how it stifled innovation and keeps the poorest poor. Marc Andreesen on JRE is another fantastic listen if you just need outlined why Trump was the positive vote in a no nonsense manner. Let me know if you want the book. Have a good one. Great tune. P.S. calling people you disagree with billionaire bootlickers is rather contradictory given that you seem to imply rational discourse is preferable.

Awesome song, have you released it on Spotify?

Great info Lucas. Where do you get a sync license for a cover song I want to use on RUclips? Or is it even worth it?

Excellent work! Thank you for this

It always baffles me why people think they can cover something they don’t own or didn’t create and then stamp their feet like a child when the creator objects, of course the original owner can say no, it doesn’t make them a tyrant by any stretch of the imagination, try writing your own songs 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

That's a great song if I've ever heard one. The artist has a wonderful switch to Falsetto. Always impressive hearing that. And I just love how you can add real strings, so cool :D

“Boomer crap” lol great video, sir!

On my separate music channel, I uploaded like five songs and one day, all acoustic covers in my own style. Within 24 hours, I had a copyright claim on four out of five of them. The only one that didn’t copyright claimed was a song by yes. I don’t know how all this works, and I can tell that RUclips did not promote my videos at all, they still only have like four or five views apiece. Except for the one that did not get copyright claimed. Overall, I’m glad that it’s not as scary as it used to be, the worst thing it appears that will happen is that you just won’t get promoted or if you do, get a lot of views then you have to share money with the original owner.

Calling older forms of music media "boomer crap" makes you sound less informed and perpepetuates the divide between generations. Don't let stuff like that get in the way of an otherwise very informative and helpful video.

What if i want to sing a cover song in another language?

So why does DistroKid charge you for a licence for a cover ? Ok watched the whole video, it’s because other legal jurisdictions require a licence

The effort oh my god, that was amazing!!!

Its good

That 9th chord on jigsaw section reminds me more of the john mayer - no such thing lol

drop the song now!

Can i Change the Tempo and Genre of a Song ? I have Cover vocals from a Pop Song and have made an uptempo version is this ok?

I Love Radiohead but if anything from your lifetime is your favorite album, you need some deeper musical education

Great video! Thanks for explaining your techniques! I'm definitely going to try layering my vocals!

Thanks for going through your mixing process though! Really helps out!

❤😂😂😂🎉🎉😢😢

Dear Lucas, I don't know if you'll read this, but here goes anyway. I rarely ever comment in general but I've been following your content for a while. I've learnt quite a lot of things from your content, thank you for that. I started playing your EP "This Place". I'm halfway through and I'm so in awe of the production, songwriting that I can't wait to comment this until the end haha, what a beautiful body of art! If it isn't a lot to ask, I would love it if you can make a video running thorough the making of this EP and the challenges you faced while producing such beauty. Please consider the idea and thank you very much again for sharing such wonderful art with the world. Best to you! ❤️

hello! do you mind me asking what daw this is?

Please don't apologize for the music theory. Sophisticated music like Radiohead doesn't just happen. They know what they are doing, and we need to know also. Knowledge is a good thing. The more the better.

How many of these are just junky AI?

Can you do a Mitski video next? Big fan

Wished I watched this video before starting some campaigns... Total waste of my money. 😒

New Sub👊🏾 thank you 🙏🏽 this explains alot I’m trying to drop My Funny Valentine for Valentine Day in 2025

I always wondered how alternative indie can be made. But now i learned Thank you ❤

Thank you for this! I'm not a music creator, but I wanted to know if someone could hum or sing a song casually in videos without making trouble for themselves. Your video gives me a little understanding.

Videotape or dayli battles please LUcas ! 🙏🏻

That rots!

Ur super talented!! Sounds amazing

believe it or not i was JUST about to record a kind of indie piano ballad........so this tool appears , and it's what i needed

It's crazy that you only have 4k! I wish I found this vid sooner

This is great, it's hard to find production tutorials where the final product is actually good but yours is beautiful!

Let me ask you something homie.. if I use the instrumental of an artist and write unique lyrics to it, similar to weird Al, and I get a copyright ID claim, could I get demonetized? I don't know... I got demonetized for something lol and RUclips doesn't tell you what you did but you can reapply in 90 days..

Очень красиво!

I actually like that your vocal chains are simple. A lot of people I see put like 10+ different plugins and I was thinking there’s no way this is necessary haha

Thank you for this video man! This is so awesome!!!

This is absolute gold.

Sounds more like a Puma Blue song but I'll take that

What if I record to the original song's beat with different lyrics? Is that a cover? And can I post it to RUclips???

Do you have any vocal presets for sale?

Unburdened by what has been!

This is more about sound design techniques, rather than realism.
