    Great video Kevin. In fact, the method you describe is the very similar to one of the "best practises" for creating themes or phrases out of motifs. E.g. the PreVade method: presentation, repetition, variation, destruction.

    I think the way you explained the mixing part of this video was perfect for beginners like me. A full on video on EQ might be daunting but if you bring it in small packages with a direct application on a project then i could follow much better.

    Very ingenious. Will borrow this idea to teach my students too 😀BTW, would love to see a video on how you use the Step Sequencer here for Percussion? You were pretty effortless and looks like it saved you a lot of time. I usually just play in the percussion on the keyboard and then quantize and fix notes afterwards, but I reckon I should give this a shot too.

    Well, I just got Damage 2 and Uncharted 88 after watching your videos and Ill try to keep this in mind. Waiting for the Gravity 2 sale, and Ill get that too. Good times! :) Also, really want the Watchkeeper Library by Keep-forest.. but it's 400$(sale) which I don't think it's worth?!?! It's in my cart, but I have not been able to go through with it... Either way, love your content, I have seen close to 30 videos to completion by now, and I genuinely think it's weird youtube won't push your content a bit harder. Top quality, with genuine impressions, tips and tricks. GG.

    Hello :)
    Do you have a recommendation for a percussion library for more electronic / hybrid approach? I was thinking about heavily sound designed stuff - for example like the Dune and Duen 2 intro drums, you know?
    I'm not an orchestral producer - quite the opposite: i make mainly techno and more experimental bass music, but also ambient stuff. Some tribalisitc percussion stuff i think would be a really nice addition.
    So i'm not necessarily looking for something "authentic" or classic sounding.
    Is there any library that kind of fits that nieché? :)

    Now you gotta do that whole process again for the b section 😂 or just extend it, cause just that would get repetitive quickly.
    Good for a high energy section, but the phrasing or words just run into eachother too quickly for slower sections.
