  • I have a paid course for those of you who want to take this whole "making music" thing to the next level. Here's a free sample of the course if you're interested: www.completepr...
    After 8 years of studying Jon Bellion's music I've learned a thing or two about how he makes his magic. There are certain elements that he uses in almost every song. In this video I break down the secrets I've learned about Jon Bellion's music production and put them to the test making my own song in his style. Watch and find out if you're able to recreate the magic for yourself!
    Thanks so much for watching and comment any questions you have, I read them all (:
    Please sub if this was entertaining or helpful, thank you!

    Hey Bro I hope you see this message! As Jon’s touring guitar player for the the first 3 tapes and human condition and member of his band since we met in college I would like to give you my stamp of approval on this! ahaha That drum pocket and how you weave the vocals in there is really close to the way jon does it. What’s awesome is it sounds like it’s own thing! would love to make a jon style beat with you sometime. I’m a songwriter as well. Also some other things. I went to school with Jon and can tell you that he learned nothing in music college he didn’t go to school for music for performance he went for audio production. All he would do is create music everyday in his dorm and in those days all his creations sounded radio ready. Crazy!

    Lol I love that subscriber push. I like how you weave humor into your videos (something I'm still working on). I also made a Jon Bellion video essay, but where this one differs is that you actually know music. You demonstrate your knoweledge, lol I just talk for 12 minutes in mine. To be honest, I didn't think your song would sound remotely like Jon's, but with each new element you added into the song, you won me over. Great job!

    I've watched a lot of "Producer Tip" videos as I've been learning my craft, and while they all have helpful tips, it's rare that the song they show off at the end is something I actually like and want to produce myself. You however, made a banger. I think that's the best way to show off what you know

    If you don't have a drum pad, Ableton allows you to USE YOUR QWERTY KEYBOARD as a TOUCH SENSITIVE MIDI INPUT. So no more drawing in midi if you want to Play it in ... cuz sometimes you don't have your Push or midi keyboard with you 😎👍🎶⚡️

    When I watch his beat making videos, it seems he has already envisioned the main components of the song, before ever sitting down to record. He doesn't approach music like "ok now i've made some chords that work....now..where do I go from here?". He's already got the chorus, melody, bass, drums, keys worked out in his head.
