One of the best hip hop tutorials I have ever seen 😮
Damn bro really?? Im glad i could help famo! 🙌🏾
high quality content right here. props for getting that real knx sound. part 3 would be awesome.
Appreciate that homie! 🫡 i tried my best the man is an alien 😂. Heard!
great to have you back!
Bro it feels so good to be back 🙌🏾 thanks for stickin with me homie! 💯
that advice to use an EQ on the main is so simple but I love it, thank you. advancing the culture fr
SIMPLE STUFF! A lot of times i feel we get in the mindset something has to be complicated complex or expensive to achieve great results when sometimes thats so far from the case!
Thanks for being a part! 🙌🏾
Hands down the best Knx video on the platform. Really like what you do. Stay happy brother!
Yall gassing me I swear 😭❤️🙌🏾🙌🏾. Preesh homie I'ma keep it up!
Great video dude, keep it up man, respect!
Thank you friend! I gotta keep it up! 🙌🏾🙌🏾😤
super soulful and groovy tutorial 💯
Ain't no way else to do it my g! 🙌🏾🙌🏾💯
Dope my guy, thanks
Yessir! No sweat 🙌🏾
dope tutorial! you tapped into something i had heard knx say during a beat review on his twitch, which was "Y'all need to let y'all beats breathe more". Having those gaps where there's no sample and just drums or just a vocal chop creates that anticipation for when it comes back in.
Another thing i've learned from remaking knx's stuff is that his drums a're usually on the grid except the hi hats are usually a bit delayed. A great deal of what we assume is drum swing is how his drums mesh with the sample.
On "Suede", you can hear how the first few bars are on beat but then the timestretched Gil Scott Heron sample falls off time and gives a feel that wouldn't be there if the sample was quantized to fit the loop.
so[rt] has an interesting pocket because of the delayed hats but also because the sample is in 6/4 and knx found a perfect place to sample and just let it play while he added drums.
Fam insane! You hit the nail on the head. While I incorporate some amount of swing in all my beats the obsession with SWING SWING SWING MORE SWING SWING THIS SWING THAT bruh lmaoo 😂. It's funny if you swing everything nothings really swung is it? Also you can swing the hell outta your beats and they can still sound hotdog water 😂. Buy yes you must let your beat breathe it is vital, it's like you're teasing the listener.. lmao gotta edge the ears 💀... don't quote me plz. I'm glad you diggin the vids, I've def peeped your remakes in the past good shits fasho. Remaking beats are tuff especially when your trying to emulate aliens man... good stuff! 💯
this is the best knx tutorial hands down. need more of this 🙏
🙌🏾🙌🏾 I'm just so happy I can help yall! 💯 more otw!
dope video my guy 😮💨
just one more technique that I think is super underrated and it's used in a lot of knxwledge beats, it's a really suttle sidechain on the kick onto the overall track, it makes the song more wavy and dynamic
Thanks homie!! You know everyone keeps pointing this out! Almost 100% of my beats I'm sidechaining my kicks to the sample. I used to use FL Studios stock limiter but now I use Vulf Compressor. I'll def make sure to mention that part I usually do it out of habit these days and don't think to talk about it! Thanks for the input!
@@JayDAndre If you could do a tutorial on this sidechain trick it would be dope. I am trying to learn a good sidechain technique to apply on my beats. Keep it up homie 🥋🔥
you are insane for this
🙏🏾😌😈
Yo that third section hits different Ik the sample and can't figure out what you did to make those sax melodies hit so hard. Big respect
I appreciate that fam! No secrets over here it's crazy how unique you can make things sound with subtle changes.. small nuances really can swing ya whole beat! Thanks for stoppin thru!
Probably the best knx vid I’ve seen, really makes his complex style of production rlly simple. Can’t wait for Nxworries, good luck out to you man 🙏
Damnnn maneee the best??!! That means so much I swear I won't put a video out unless I'm 100% confident the beat would fit in their catalog! Thank you and thanks for stoppin thru! Nxworries finna slap!
@@JayDAndre New sub, keep up this heat man
@@landonscranton3042 will do! 😈
fyah bro! ❤
Thanks homie!! 😤
This is awesome dude, really enjoyed it💪
Yo man means a lot fam! Ive been thru tons of your videos you break down artist style so well fam! That Jordan ward one 🔥
Plz do part 3!!!!🔥🔥🔥
Say less 😈
thank you for spreading knowledge about knxwledge
Fasho famo! If you want some more knxwledge knowledge lemme know! 🙌🏾😌
Fire vid broda!!
Yessir!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾💯
These techniques are incredible, you got this down to a science!!!
Woah homie thanks! Means a whole lot! And it took time fasho! 🙌🏾🙏🏾
Wow... amazing!😯 You're really talented bro. Thank you so so much for putting this in depth tutorial out for free! I got so bored of making trap to the point I got bored of making beats at all. But most hip-hop tutorials I come across are all about making trap. So it's really refreshing to see content like this. It gave me new energy, I really feel like making beats and trying out experimental stuff again.
Damn fam means a lot! Yeah you gotta switch it up no matter what you're making ya know! It'll make you more well rounded anyway! 😌🙌🏾 thanks for engaging homie!
this gave me a lot if ideas to play with, appreciate this video a lot
Absolutely homie! The grind never stops there's always ideas ready to be checked out and improved with your unique spin and twist! Thanks for comin thru!
Dope upload. Thanks for sharing the knowledge 😅
😂😂😂 i see what you did there
Almost sounds like cartoons and cereal … Nasty Work ! 🔥🔥🔥 very knx-like
Ooh that Cartoons and Cereal a classic mane! Appreciate u for taking the time out! 💯🙌🏾
Great video. Knx has inspired me since 2019. I really needed a tutorial like this. U the goat
Im tellin u bro the man is an alien 💀💀🙌🏾💯 im glad we could all come together to even try to come close to what hes doin
This video is incredible
Appreciate that Trucker Mike! Keep on Truckin! 🔥🔥🔥
you nice, the beat gave me chills. you got a new sub
Right on my dawg! Welcome to the fam 🙌🏾🙌🏾😌
Love this shit keep it up. You can tell you’re a very passionate guy from the get
Absolutely my g! Preesh for stoppin by! 💯
Another thing to note is that knxwledge uses rbass on tbe master which is a bass emulation plugin, and i think probably one of the main key points to making a warm mix
RBass is a solid plugin! But to be honest you can get that with a lot of plugins. The main key I feel is getting that analog warmth you know so many ways to get it fasho! Good insight fam!
THANK YOU HOLY SHIT! I really need to simplify what Im doing. Im always scared to put stuff on the master, usually relying on putting a bunch of effects on individual tracks. I never thought about the mastering process too much.
SIMPLE STUFF! I promise your favorite producers aren't stressing about buying 100 plugins and which ones are the best or whateva its all in the feeling! I love working on the master it gives a more uniform vibe! Thanks for coming thru homie!
incredible vid, instant sub
Thank u my g! I hope u continue to dig the channel more comin soon! 💯
Tight🔥
Preesh mah boi 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
This beat tough and the tips 😮💨
Right on my g!! Glad u got something out of it! 🙌🏾
@@JayDAndrebest video on all questions regarding techniques used, mixing and overall feeling
@vonleee5637 aye man I'm glad I could help 😌🙌🏾
Yesssss been missing u bro !! Love ur content and info .. feel like I can have these convos with u for hours .. lol
Well im back homie!! 😈🙌🏾 don't even trip i'm locked in now. And funny you say that because im working on a lil something behind the scenes! 😉🙏🏾
Niceeee. Just for Future video request.. u should talk about enhancing the bass from a sample , mixing and eq’in tricks to just enhancing what the sample is already giving you baseline wize…I thought it was gonna be one of the 5 lol.. but it’s all good .. that number 4 is it though.. major key… keep it coming bro .. much ❤
Keep ya eyes out in a day or two 👀😈
hey man! great video, i loved it and loved your mentality as well. my only suggestion would be to maybe move the mic or compress it a little bit because when you speak and move your head it gets a lot quieter and i had to turn up the volume to hear you but when you played the beat i had to turn it down again. thank you for this video again, hope to see more from you!
Yoo homie thanks for the input i really wanna get a lapel mic i think it would be better for me! Ill be def investin in that soon! But thanks for the input glad to see u engaging too! Preesh! 💯🙌🏾
🔥🔥🔥
😤😤😤
The eq rip was elite.
Aye man you know I gotta drop some gems! 🙌🏾
New viewer, digging your channel, digging this video
I'm glad you found your way through homie! Come kick it with us! More coming soon! 💯🙌🏾
Amazing tutorial bro 💪🫡
Yoo homie good lookin out you been making 🔥 i remember freestylin to your shit years ago! Much love!
awesome vid! Needs more views
I appreciate the support homie! It's already getting more views than I anticipated so I'm ecstatic! Happy you're here bro! 🙌🏾
I heard those kick rolls and immediately though... oh thats that jersey flavor. Look up Knxwledge on wikipedia and sure enough he was born in New Jersey. I bet he had some of that NJ Club sound leak in there.
Bro tell me why I never put 2 and 2 together i knew he was from Jersey I didnt even think abouy that. Good point homie! I hope u dug the video 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
🚧👁️🚧🛰️KNX SHIT IS LIKE PSYCHEDELIC FOOTWORK SHIT IN HALF TIME
Beat is 🥶.
😤😤😤 mah boi!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Glizzy what's good!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾 thanks for stopping by homie! What a stream today tho right!
thanks for this video! yea, todays stream with dibiase was wild. all yalls beats were 🔥, looking forward to next thursday.
@glizzyhendrix fasho famo! Def got more on the way! And yeah I can't wait for the next flip session!
Love the flip and the sample is dope I swear I flipped it before 😅
Thank u homie! Yeah thats a classic sample 4sho! Yuji Ohno is a wizard! Appreciate u for comin thru!
Kick rolls and 808 rolls are actually pretty common in trap. It's for sure pretty unusual in boom bap-ish stuff, though.
Facts! It the blend of genres Knx steps out the status quo! 💯
This is awesome. Wish I could give the video more thumbs up. One is not enough
All blessing homie it means a lot! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 I'm just glad I can make a difference or inspire! 💯
Fireeee
My g thank u! 🙌🏾
ayyy thats my vocal sample in intro beat
Lmao no way! Check my Adult Swim video out I found the sample on that video. Kudos my g!
I would love to see your take on an Alchemist beat. especially his later more abstract rap stuff
Heard! Alchemist post 2018 run has been insane bro 🔥 ill def keep it in mind!
First and foremost, I love your content and how you break things down. I'm more hands on with the MPC X SE, and KO2 among others, but I'm taking time to dive into DAWs.. I have Serato Studio, but I'm leaning towards Abelton or FL, is FL a difficult DAW to learn?? Much love and respect fam!🙏🏾✊🏾💚
My guy I appreciate all the kind words! Believe it or not i never touched mpc in my life. Just never been around one. So forever I always wanted one cause I thought that was how you make the type of beats I love. Then I learned it's not about the tool.. it's the creator and the creativity. I been a DAW warrior forever and even after having a sp 404 mk 2 sp 303 ko ii maschine micro I love the computer the most. Fl I feel is very user friendly but everything comes with it's own challenges! Big ups homie!
@JayDAndre I'm an Oldhead, and been an Emcee since '86, and transitioned to making beats 5yrs ago, and I've definitely learned that the artist makes it work with anything! Gonna check out the trial version of FL, because I definitely want to get more into the DAWs. Appreciate you homie!!! Keep shining my brother!🙏🏾✊🏾💚
awesome
Good stuff huh?! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
ive been making beats like this for years & i love knxwledge but timeline wise i would say I was heavily influenced by dilla, exile, alchemist + AFTA 1 to get this sound.
Hell yeah fam! Behind every great producer is a line of incredible producers, I'm sure he was inspired by some of those guys too! Dilla 4sho! Can't wait to see the producers Knx helps inspire really come up! Thanks for comin thru!
Serato is a game changer
Bro I never looked back I promise u!
Dope Video and Beat! One thing I‘m confused with is you showing significant High-Boost on the master but then saying „cut some Highs to get that warm sound“ 🤔
Thanks homie! I'm glad you was feeling it! About that I put a lot or processing that cut highs using analog emulation but you can go another route and just cut some highs to warm the signal too! I was adding some in cause I took out a lot!
@@JayDAndre ah I see. Thanks :)
So I’m a big student to the game, but I have NO prior knowledge of music theory, nor have the resources to go out and learn. I know there ain’t no excuse, but do I need all that to start my own beats? Like yourself, I take every producer, listen & grab stuff here & there. RUclips became my school of production & music theory, I be winging it lol.
All said & done , masterclass of an explanation with these tips bro, really shed me light
Do you need to know music theory to start making beats? No.. will it help to know a little bit? Yes! I think having a certain understanding of it will only benefit you but it's not of the most importance. Go for feeling and what sounds good to you. Just start making stuff RUclips is the perfect place to learn, but don't get caught up watching 1000 tutorials without making something. It's good to learn but you gotta practice too! Good luck famo! Thanks for being here!
@@JayDAndre Appreciate the love & knowledge!!
Nice! Do you have a mixing/mastering course?
I don't but I can def make a video on my process for sure!
bro spillin the lupin ost sauce
Maneee we've had that lil gem for yeeeaars! 😂 wait till they hear Hiro....
I'm new to the Lupin sauce game
@@randomnewspaper Well welcome my g! I'll put it this way... anything Yuji Ohno touches is gold.
if you wrote that comment like 7 years ago it would make more sense, oh no's stuff has done been rinsed and used
This is a great beat!
I will say: on the mixing...
Look into gain staging. You should be normalizing quiet signals like those before running them through plugins. Youll have waaaay better final production quality. Plus, you dont have to turn your system all the way up when making your beat.
Seriously dope beat though.
You are 100% correct on the gain staging it can really make things easier lol. To be honest for these beats I've been making and mixing them like i was making it on a 404 or mpc focusing on the master. I did very minimal tweaks to individual sounds. Good stuff for pointing that out! Thanks for engaging fam! 🙌🏾
@@JayDAndre Yeah, sometimes it's best to just stay in flow when being creative
sidechain your kicks to your sample !!!
Oh best believe im chainin with that fruity limiter on every sample 😂💯
Sidechain kick to sample is vital bro!
It seems like Knx uses some sort of gate effect for his vocals ‘fading in and out’ his tracks organically.
It could be! Or automation too! Theres honestly so many ways to get the same outcome ya know. I think having so many routes for the same conclusion is what gives us the chance to really have our own flavor and find our sig sound too!
@@JayDAndreyes definitely. I dont get the impression he’s someone who likes to do tedious automation editing in Live. Rather do takes with some sort of custom rack.
@@anatolianINVASION word up on that!
ur a goated for using fruity loops for this sort of music, thank u, FL gang
FL GANG TILL I DIE ❤️❤️🥭
great video, i've been searching for the name of the beat in the intro, can someone name it please, the one with the flute thing, i'd really appreciate it
Thank u fam! Actually that beat came from my "How to Make Adult Swim Bumps Type Beat" video. I made it! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
@@JayDAndre thanks man you rule
Nah fam u rule! @Chamerli
amazing tutorial my guy... also you kinda look like LeVar Burton from reading rainbow and star trek 😂😂
😂😂😂 bro lmao thats a first.. hey "the more you know" but good looks homie thanks for coming thru!
What did u put on kick + did u use drum bus
I don't go crazy on single sounds maybe a bit of transient shaping a bit of eq.. my drum bus is full of compression analog emulation and color!
I didn't know he chopped samples first lol. All my buddies do their drums first. I also chop my samples first and find the pocket for the drums.
Yeah! I would assume he does both ya know! It really depends on the vibe, I'll def tell you try both it can def lead to interesting outcomes! Starting with drums might make finding sample patterns easier, while starting with the sample might make it easier to make the drum groove sound more natural and resonate with the sample a bit more! Happy chopping fam! Glad you're here! 💯
Sounding like Iman Omari lol, nice!
Broooo shhhhhhhh! Dont spoil the surprise 👀👀
Bruh you gotta be related to Neil 'de-gir-hy' Tyson because Ima keep going back to this when I'm trying to make beats. Thank you for this.
Brooo lmaooo whoooo?? Im glad u diggin it homie! 😂💯 more on the way
how did u craft ur bass line? Or did u just use the bassline from the sample?
Great question family! So in this beat i actually enhanced the bass in the sample and filled out the lower end with a some texture to make it richer in the bass frequencies. Sometimes i play the bass.. sometimes i use what i already got! All depends on the vibe! Thanks for comin thru! 🙌🏾
How did you eq the sample? Dope video!
I'll be honest really light eq, I took out some low end probably from 0-100 hertz and just slight dipped the mids to highs to give a warm sound. Experiment with it, depends on the vibe of the track. Challenge yourself to only use 3 bands of eq. Sometimes I think we go overboard on eq when we have to option to do so! Great question!
@@JayDAndre dope! Yeah I’ve always struggled with eq on samples but the stems features help
@@floydland3509 fasho! Gotta use all tools at your arsenal!
use a different kick in the kickroll for the setup
Aye you on to somethin 😈🔥
The drum stuff is classic timbaland influence
Fax! Also someone pointed out his drums might be influenced by his hometown in New Jersey too! Really percussive and loose!
Too much Gems on here
Aye man I'm trying to show love! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
The chop and beat are chill, but if you’re going for something like that, you need more swing in the beat! Gotta get off the grid
Thanks homie! In this beat i opted for subtle changes in swing by swinging a couple kicks rather than em all that way it adds a layer of spontaneity. But if you listen close I those hats on a different continent 😂. Appreciate the feedback fam!
not many point out that he got his style from dilla
@@Barney-ii1no I wouldn't say he got his style from Dilla, for sure was inspired you can tell! But you can hear a lot of influences im his musoc fasho. From Beatmakers, Jazz Artists, Rnb artists etc! But to name a couple other maybe Metal Fingers, I can for sure hear the Fly Lo! Madlib definitely especially with his avant garde style!
As producers we gotta stop making videos on how to sound like other producers. Be you King. Express your own voice. Respectfully.
Yo homie I got a video I want you to check out! It's called "You'll Never Be Dilla" please peep that! It goes into deeper detail, but really through these videos and examples it's all practice! The same way basketball players would emulate their heroes games, and model themselves after their influences. Not to be a carbon copy but to learn what makes them tick ya know. Think Magic Johnson/LeBron Tatum/Kobe
Curry/Nash ya know! We're here to learn and evolve and you learn from watching the greats. You are a sum of your inspirations! That what makes you YOU! Thank you for engaging homie, please keep peeping the vids and engaging! 💯🙌🏾
@@JayDAndre respect!! 🫡
