40 is also a phenomenal pianist… I think it’s why so much of his music has such a unique shape to it. All of those melodies and chord progressions we hear and love come from his flexibility as an actual pianist.. he’s one of my favorite producers and as I listen to his work more I think this is why.

right. I bought so much from NI back in the day based off his word alone. That past journey means so much to me now. Thanks to 40 and NI for the memories.
As a artist producer engineer myself I have to say I am honored to have embraced this guy’s technique in how he uses sound and frequency I love to collect sounds and use different sources heck I’ve made a record out of a Nintendo switch using Korg gadget, and pro tools it’s just how you use the sources you have and this guy is the best example of that he literally took the sound of distortion to a whole new level he change the game when he came I’ve always started with the sounds first lol
This video is mind blowing for me. As an artist I often feel limited by a finished instrumental. My story always felt like it had to fit in with a theme of someone else's creation. It feels like my time is already taken up as a vocalist by searching for inspiration, coming up with concepts, writing and editing, recording and producing my vocals. I know there's all type of kits available but truly my heart resonates with 40's Toronto sound. It's one of the reasons I started to see music as a vehicle to hold a visualized space that I'd created with sound, as a stage to convey raw emotion just for me (and a hope that maybe other people would be transported too) because I want to exist in that space and I wasn't hearing it in music besides from 40/Drake. This video showed me that not only can I achieve some of those sounds in my music, but I can DO IT MYSELF? Incredible. I am truly grateful for 40's contribution to music, it's had an effect on my life more than any other artist. Truly grateful, stay blessed.
I have so much respect for this man ! He’s humble and I never see him overact on this craft. Respect, I will get this tools no because I need them just for 40, he deserve support for what it did for the music !
Wishing 40 the best of health. He's one of my favorite producers ever. I honestly like the part where said he fucked up but he left it in the song because thats how he started.
I think drake needs to team back up with his original producers from the take care era, the 40 era... Teaming with 40, boi-1da and T-Minus exclusively; would be a great sounding drake album...🤔👌
40 is super talented and I love his sound and approach! The more I learn and progress though, I keep asking myself… Is it really hard to make your own sounds? I get so much more joy from making my own sounds and using them than buying someone else’s stuff, these days.
Absolutely love this video. These are the videos I live for honestly lol. It’s casual, inspiring, and helps with creative blocks. Stirs up ideas and motivation. Thank you 🙏🏻
@4:09 I just love that beat, the melody just everything hopefully drake makes it into a song sounds like it could be a outro like do no disturb. 40 the goat‼️
Oh oh definitely on the list. Insightful and of course he added a manifest and his videos are always inspiring when you think of his success with simplicity and accessible tools.

At first, this video reminded me of a Unison ad parody a la Tantacrul. Glad I kept watching as not only was what he helped create pretty cool, I liked his minimalist approach and philosophy of not throwing everything but the kitchen sink into the mix because you think that's the only way to sound good. One kick and one tom can do so much but you can ruin it by burying them under unnecessary percussion.
His passion has never dwindled. He is still as enthusiastic as he was when he first began. He was born for this. One in a million kind of guy.

Pads are my go-to. The fact you can use 2 bar chord progressions to make rich ambience is a great tool to get your head in the right headspace
