  • In Autumn 2011 Future Music headed to Stockholm to spend the day in the studio with rapidly rising house star Tim Bergling aka Avicii to see him create the basics of a new remix. That track would become Eric Turner vs Avicii - Dancing In My Head. Sit back and enjoy over an hour of Avicii at work.

    @paulofallone 3 года назад +1310

    A couple of key notes:
    He uses Sylenth1 and uses presets
    He also uses loops and samples
    He puts the creative side of production first, prioritising creating a cool base such as, melody, harmony and so on before moving forward to the engineering side of production
    He uses stock plugins
    He works in stages, completing a basic structure for the track and once it’s got a body, he moves on to the details to then goes on to the second part, second drop, break etc.
    He usually finishes the whole track and then comes back to fine tune all the timbres and details
    He doesn’t record anything while playing, he figures out what he wants to do and then draws the melody/harmony in the piano roll
    He tries things out a lot, changing melodies in the piano roll, making mistakes and keeps going on
    He finishes the instrumental/structural part of the track and then moves on to focus on the small things, details
    He makes lots of layers. If you wanna make a track sound big, layering is the best way
    There are no rules to music production as long as you keep it original.

    Honestly I fucking loved this video because it shows how normal, and similar to you and I Avicii is. No, he's not some prodigy audio engineer that's going to create his own unique sounds/effects. Yes, almost all his sounds are from loops and presets. I personally couldn't care less. When the track is finished, all I care about is what the final product sounds like. Where you think he might be taking shortcuts, or being lazy; all I care about are the combinations of melody and rhythmic patterns. What he does have is a gifted ear which allows him to layer melody on melody and arrange some pretty excellent songs.
    The best part about this is that it gives hope for beginners like me. I still want to learn as much theory and technical skills as I can, but it's nice knowing that there's potential success for a guy whose best strength is creating melodies.

    For everyone complaining about presets, realize he's creating the entire arrangement in a single interview.
    1. He's not going to waste our time fiddling with knobs when he's trying to show us how he creates a piece of MUSIC.
    2. Honest to god, listeners don't care if you use presets.
    3. The true measure of a producer lies in the MUSICAL skills he/she possesses, as in hearing the potential a sound has to illicit an emotional response, and being able to engineer that into a mix for maximum effect.
    Being able to tweak synth knobs certainly demonstrates your knowledge of the plugins and qualifies you as an effects artist, but mastery of those skills does not make you a good producer.

    This is my favorite video on the entire platform. Dancing in my head was my favorite song as an 11 year old and it stuck to me forever. Right now i just turned 19 and i'm producing music as well, started like 2 months ago on easy stuff like lo fi and trap but now i'm making progressive house and eventually i want to be able to make music that would have changed the life of myself as an 11 year old, just like avicii did.

  • @Nathanator
    @Nathanator 2 года назад +91

    *_Some notes on how he did his songwriting/production:_*
    *Process*
    - He begins with a piano melody and chords under it, as they are the focus of the track, only selecting sounds after
    - He then does the bass and selects a sound
    - He picks a good punchy kick sample, so that the kick sounds good by itself (he cares about every element of the song sounding good)
    - After he has a good base down, he begins arrangement
    *Arrangement*
    - Intro = 32 bars (Low passed strings begin after 16 bars, with the cutoff slowly increasing and a long riser beginning)
    - Verse = 24 bars (Low passed strings with the cutoff slowly increasing)
    - Drop/Chorus = 28 bars (kick starts after 8 bars and ends 4 bars early)
    - Verse = 32 bars (drum loop only lasts first 16 bars, he adds the intro synth back in for a change until the drop, bass is in for the last 8 bars)
    - Bridge = 24 bars (adds pluck melody for entire bridge, a buildup starts after 8 bars, drums and bass come back after 8 bars and end after 8 bars)
    - Drop = 32 bars (weak kick plays for 8 bats before being replaced with a strong kick, drums and bass are gone in the last 8 bars and replaced with the bridge melody one octave higher)
    - Outro = 32 bars (just a drum loop)
    - Throughout the entire arrangement, Avicii adds a lot of variation and changes by taking out and adding back in elements in order to keep the entire song interesting and to make the listener feel excited. He builds tension by increasing the low pass filter cutoff, risers, and strategically taking out elements at certain points to increase the focus on certain parts of the track. He releases the tension with impacts and with a smooth and strong transition into a new section of the song.
    *Production*
    - He layers many synths to get a thick wide sound
    - He does all the creative stuff (arrangement, melody, harmony) before making tweaks and doing technical stuff (better sound selection, mixing, effects)
    - He doesn’t follow a specific technical process or use special techniques, he tweaks things based on whether or not it sounds good to him
    - His skill lies in his creativity, melody, harmony, arrangement, and figuring out what sounds good. He isn’t a very skilled technician or engineer (not extremely good at mixing and doesn’t do sound design) and he doesn’t want to be, he cares more about how the audience feels listening to his music

    All the haters complain about presets. Who fucking cares? Presets are there for you to USE them. Music is about what YOU THINK sounds good. NOT where you get the sounds from. So stop being butt hurt because he's making millions and you're still saving up for some shitty monitors.

      L.J. Brood I always start with a preset that sounds kind of like what I want, and then I start tweaking. I spent a lot of time collecting presets that are in my style. And I also make my own presets for later. I think you need to be flexible if you want to be at least somewhat productive. It doesn't matter what you do, it still takes talent to make the whole track sound good.

      +L.J. Brood presets are not a shortcut for knowing the fundamentals of sound design. Saving up for "da monitors" isnt the point. Knowing your craft is the point.

      +bob seger First off; he did actually write the melody. Second; a producer can have the technique and such to produce amazing sounds from scratch, but if he doesn't have the creativity and innovativity to make something original and unique out of it, it doesn't matter at all.

      it is said he was after a group who wqas for Pedofilia. also same group that is said killed the singer of Linkin Park. Lead man in that group was Hillary Clintons right hand man of all things. these are base rumors but Aviici was know to support Battle against pedofilia and such. Then he got into deep and got killed by same group. Ofc this is all speculations but He DID NOT use drugs thats fo sure. Maybe anti dep meds but not drugs in the large sense of the word!
