As someone who does a lot of remakes I've never thought of looping a tiny segment of a song in order to help match the exact voicing of a chord! Nice, I'm going to use this trick from now on
Your playing skills, sound designing abilities along with your infectious personality are a recipe for magic. Absolute magic. Keep the videos coming. Respect
Man… when you do your “magic” i’m totally enchanted. You know everything from where is originally from… and then how it’s carved out to the actual sound! It’s “sound design” perform Art just before the final result! You are a beast Man!
Near the end of the song during the last chorus ("put your pinky rings up to the..") there's a little descending chromatic bass line played in octaves. My band members and I always fight about which direction the octaves go: high to low or low to high. Bass players seem to prefer the high note first but the keyboard players play the low note first (which I believe is correct.) If you walk that bass line down the keys, your thumb will land on "moon" perfectly.
If Bruno Mars would be so kind to drop his Doctor Mix face mask and reveal his identity. 🙂 Always a pleasure watching real musicians doing their magic. Kudos Claudio!
Damn! that funky bassline and fat lead take me back to a better time. 80's funk and dance rules!! Kudos to both Bruno and you Doctor Mix, for sharing the nostalgic love.
You said it right Claudio: Bruno MARS is one of the best of todays music! MJ is forever first, but B. Mars is on the Top 5!!! I love the song "Finesse"!
Amazing Claudio, you are incredibly talented. I love how you break songs down and show exactly how they can be replicated. The amount of experience you must have under your belt to be able to assess the foundation of a professionally engineered song is something magical to watch.
13:28 That's the DYNACORD ADD-one "Advanced Digital Drums" rack module from around 1986. It's some sort of drum sampler with trigger input jacks for drum pads. It's usually complemented by the DYNACORD ADD-drive "Advanced Sampler and Disk Drive" to unfold its full potential.
I am a big fan o Doctor Mix. One suggestion that I would make is to recreate the instrumental by just listening to the original song itself instead of the tracks of the song, just like you did with Around the World by Daft Punk. You are so talented that it is much more interesting watching you being able to identify every instrument on the song just by listening to it. That is why Around the World went viral, in my opinion. Seeing you recreate the song just by using your ears, being able to single out each instrument and make a beautiful song a the end is a magical experience. Keep up with the amazing work!!! 😀
It amazes me how these old disco sounds still sound fresh to this day and how your body will involutarily move to it... Something in the sound has to trigger this involuntary movement
Claudio, this was amazing. Just seeing how you recreate the sounds was like watching a kid play and a pro work at the same time, in harmony. That improvisation at the end was the cherry on the top. Just wow...
Claudio -you sir are EXTREMELY talented. I can't imagine the thousands of hours you have put into your craft. You deserve all the success you are achieving! Kudos!
I guess when you play synth keyboard as much as Dr. Mix these sounds must become very familiar, that was really neat how you made the bass. Great cover of the original. I recreated Van Halen Jump with your preset from the AX but i still cannot get that guitar solo perfect haha. I might never get it.
19:49 --> If I'm not mistaken they used a Juno 106 for the synth stabs. How frikkin' cool is that? A multi-million dollar triple platina hit and they used a ''humble'' Juno 106 from 1984 for a hit song in 2016. Just love it 😍
@ghost mall Ah yeah, that was a peach too.. watching it again now!! I loved the sound palette in this one... all my favourite machines in one jam!! Linn, DMX, Juno, Moog... You really can't go wrong!!
Hi ! I'm Brazilian and Music Producer !! Congratulations for the tutorial!! Very nice of you to unveil the timbres used in this beautiful song by Bruno Mars !! Hope to see more videos like this!!
The way you deconstructed that chord with the open chord guitar, and looping the original audio to identify better the harmonics of the chord used....colour me impressed
You make music look so fun again, which it is. The joy of finding that one sound, super inspiring. If i’d have a suggestion for a recreation it would have to be “Electric Feel” by MGMT!
@@Doctormix I'm trying to survive this heatwave in Greece !! 😂 I also hope you are well, I keep watching your videos and try to become a producer. Still a long way to go but I love the process ❤ Sending positive energy and wish you the best! 😊 Get to 1M subs soon!!
how have you not hit like 10 million subscribers yet? it's beyond me...so talented. been following for years and the videos just keep getting better lol how!?
Dr Mix always manages to delve into the heart of a song, deconstruct it and achieve a faithful reproduction time after time complete with authentic 'dialled in' sounds, effects the whole lot. The songs' Producer Jeff Bhasker would really rate this for sure.. Absolutely amazing😎.
Doctor Mix - this video makes me so happy! You made my whole week stuck at my computer seem all worth it to think one day soon I might be able to get to one-tenth your level of funky geek awesomeness. Never stop never stopping!
That cover is spot on! Now I finally know what that flexatone instrument is. I’d never seen it before, didn’t really know what kind of instrument it was.
Amazing remake! I saw you pass me on thr escalator at NAMM and you had a huge smile on your face with shades on, Beaming positive energy! I almost fan boy reached out and tapped you on the shoulder but I would have certainly fallen to my demise on the hard NAMM floor and splatted lol. Nice work!
Golden ears and Big Heart, thé right combo, man! I love then your impro moods on thé Rhodes, you are just too maaaddd!!! Thank you Brother for your work and your precious sharings!
That arppeggiated sound that you had in reverse at the end sounded instantly to me like the first one you did but just reversed (like the audio played in reverse)
Fantastic recreation. Experience really pays off. Love the celebrations when you nail it! I'd love to see more of these but they clearly take a lot of effort. Thank you anyway!
This is just AMAZING, Claudio you’re not human J’adore le solo à la fin sur le Rhodes, don’t stop making these videos please, definitely looking forward to playing with you
I thought to myself... 'Lets give this a quick watch.... and before I knew it... I was HOOKED!!' Absolutely FANTASTIC! Bravo!!! And thank you so much for reigniting my enthusiasm!! 🤘
THe intro has fantastic synth groove, vibe :) Generally, watching this all "process" is fantastic experience :) it's so amazing to watch how you recreate this song :)
Whole album is amazing! “Versace on the Floor” is pure production ear-candy in the choruses
But what did you think of Dr. mix’s work here? 🙄
@@chezchezchezchez Great! Nexxxxxxt
Everything Bruno does is magic.
It was uncanny how quickly you were able to dial in that bass line on that ancient Minimoog! You definitely know your way around that thing!
Ancient?!? It's one of the best pieces of gear in the whole studio
Old but gold.
As someone who does a lot of remakes I've never thought of looping a tiny segment of a song in order to help match the exact voicing of a chord! Nice, I'm going to use this trick from now on
As a software dev, I instantly thought of a neat little Fourier transformation to reveal the secrets ☺
Your playing skills, sound designing abilities along with your infectious personality are a recipe for magic. Absolute magic. Keep the videos coming. Respect
For sure! Don’t forget the filming/editing/production side!
Man… when you do your “magic” i’m totally enchanted. You know everything from where is originally from… and then how it’s carved out to the actual sound! It’s “sound design” perform Art just before the final result! You are a beast Man!

Fair play, that's some serious talent you've got there. Not just picking out a sample, but actually moulding a sound from scratch. Amazing.
You said it right Claudio: Bruno MARS is one of the best of todays music! MJ is forever first, but B. Mars is on the Top 5!!! I love the song "Finesse"!

Can't hit the like button often enough 🙂 well done Claudio! Love the looping trick to get the harmony! We love you too!

This is masterful Dr. Mix! 24K is an amazing cut (the whole production). Your ear never ceases to amaze me! ;)
Claudio, this was amazing. Just seeing how you recreate the sounds was like watching a kid play and a pro work at the same time, in harmony. That improvisation at the end was the cherry on the top. Just wow...
You take the time to entertain, educate and spread knowledge and joy! Brava👏
loved the improv at the end!

you absolutely nailed that bassline! love it man!
I'm so glad i found you on the net....you easily represent one of the most accomplished content on RUclips :)

Arguably the best one so far!!! 10 / 10

Me encantan estos videos de recreaciónes. Sos un genio Claudio ! Abrazo desde Argentina
🙏
Hi ! I'm Brazilian and Music Producer !!
Congratulations for the tutorial!!
Very nice of you to unveil the timbres used in this beautiful song by Bruno Mars !!
Hope to see more videos like this!!
It's a combination of different drums. It's a DMX, Linndrum, and live instruments
You're the best Doctor. Much love from Burundi 🇧🇮

I looooove that song!! I learn a whole lot from your videos. An inspiration as always!!! ❤
Hey Pixelangel! How are you doing?

how have you not hit like 10 million subscribers yet? it's beyond me...so talented. been following for years and the videos just keep getting better lol how!?
Pretty damn good. I'd say one difference I hear is the panning of bruno's mix on the arpeggio going down and it's panning right ear to left ear.
Dr Mix always manages to delve into the heart of a song, deconstruct it and achieve a faithful reproduction time after time complete with authentic 'dialled in' sounds, effects the whole lot.
The songs' Producer Jeff Bhasker would really rate this for sure..
Absolutely amazing😎.
I enjoy it so much to see this guy having so much fun doing what he loves. Awesome!
Wow! I do that (short short loop thing) too while trying to figure out complicated harmonies when i'm writing for a brass section. So cool!
Right?!
The final solo is perfect 😌👌🏻
Doctor Mix - this video makes me so happy! You made my whole week stuck at my computer seem all worth it to think one day soon I might be able to get to one-tenth your level of funky geek awesomeness. Never stop never stopping!
The bass part is my favorite.
I love when artists go out of their way to release stems,
it makes for great studying material.
facts
it´s more than "Earth Wind and Fire" but great new stuff
but the BASS...speechless...LOVE IT....and nothing without a "Rhode-Session"....
That cover is spot on! Now I finally know what that flexatone instrument is. I’d never seen it before, didn’t really know what kind of instrument it was.
and the trick with looping the short note... GENIUS!!! Definitely going to use that!
Unbelievably accurate reconstruction of the sounds! So awesome!!! 👍
Amazing remake! I saw you pass me on thr escalator at NAMM and you had a huge smile on your face with shades on, Beaming positive energy! I almost fan boy reached out and tapped you on the shoulder but I would have certainly fallen to my demise on the hard NAMM floor and splatted lol. Nice work!
Hahahah!! You should have said hi!! Next year man 🙌👍
@@Doctormix I tried but all I could get out was, "Hiiiiiiiolly SHIT ITS DR MIX!" Lol def next time
As usual, fascinating, educational and delightful to watch 👍 Thank you Claudio 😆
Your jam from 28:20 was pure joy 😉
Claudio... Excellent work Love it, Groovin so much thanks for your work... AWESOME 🎶🎶🎵🎵🎼🎼🔊🔊👋👋😎😎💯💯✔✔✔✔✔✔
WHAT WAS THAT IN THE FINAL, ABSOLUTELY FIREEEEEE DAMN
Amazing ear and production skills. As always!
U killed it Dr. Mix!!! I dig your enthusiasm sir!
We're all here for that funky sound!
Golden ears and Big Heart, thé right combo, man!
I love then your impro moods on thé Rhodes, you are just too maaaddd!!!
Thank you Brother for your work and your precious sharings!
Doctor Mix gets me in a good mood !! it's always springtime in his garden...
Thank you, that's a beautiful compliment. ❤
Great reconstruction as always Thanks. A request could do a reconstruction of "Science" by Thomas Dolby?
Amazing!
Stunning ! You're the boss. Always a great moment to watch your videos and performances.
I am always learning from you. you are a genius
Freakin Awesome!! Great video, can’t believe how close you got it to sound! What a perfect drum beat and funky baseline! Love this track 🎉
Hey Doctor i had a Yamaha PSR-640 before, the snare/clap in this song is so similar to that keyboards sound, in i think the "Dance kit".
That arppeggiated sound that you had in reverse at the end sounded instantly to me like the first one you did but just reversed (like the audio played in reverse)
The way he is going after the Minneapolis Sound, definitely a Linn Drum
You solo'ing at the end was amazing
I dont know how you actually do it but please keep doing it because i cant get enough of your videos. Greetings from belgium!
I think the drums also need a triangle on the same time as the vibratone.
Nice recreation Dr. Mix!!
Amazing work!!! Congrats Claudio!!!
omg the fact u have the Hanon there at the piano 😍🤩🥰
Dear Michael, it's you that make register for youtube, I follow your tutorial from bilibili to your channel here and I'll continue to support
YOUR THE REAL DEAL! YOU MADE ME SO EMOTIONAL.
Fantastic recreation. Experience really pays off. Love the celebrations when you nail it! I'd love to see more of these but they clearly take a lot of effort. Thank you anyway!
This is just AMAZING, Claudio you’re not human
J’adore le solo à la fin sur le Rhodes, don’t stop making these videos please, definitely looking forward to playing with you
Man i absolutely love how you have fun making music!!
I thought to myself... 'Lets give this a quick watch.... and before I knew it... I was HOOKED!!' Absolutely FANTASTIC! Bravo!!! And thank you so much for reigniting my enthusiasm!! 🤘
Wow, you really nailed it! Great recreation and I learned alot from it. This channel is gold.
THe intro has fantastic synth groove, vibe :)

Finally! I also trying to recreate Bruno's songs, and now I'm feel that I'm not alone
Wonderful video! You are excellent and very friendly 😭I loved it
wow! a real Moog and jupiter! I love the warm sounds.
The freestyle part in the end is cool!
I learn a lot from your channel. Hopefully more from this recreation tutorial in 2022 from different music genre. Many thanks.
Loved the video! Amazing work!
here for the Moog bassline - friggin NAILED IT
Great job man! & that rhodes is voiced beautifully
Very nice Claudio! AKA Dr. Mix! Greetings from Brasil. Stay safe.
Unbelievable work! Awesome
Love this guy! Something just clicked in my brain today. Watching this and his voice reminds me of NoHo Hank a little bit with the accent.
Really good match on the drum pattern and sounds. Consider me impressed!
He is the best with this energy! Thank you for inspiring me sir!
Thank you for making this video I just love kind of this one lots of love and respect from Mumbai India
This is all so wonderful, greetings to you from Jamaica

About time for another reconstruction!
We been waiting patiently and certainly worth the wait!
O cara é bom! Criativo e muita alegria! Consegue passar toda vibe boa pras sílabas rítmicas.
Amazing, brilliant when you nail the base 🙂😎😎🎹
Awesome stuff mate, you really nailed it
