I’d imagine Russia embraced it bc it fits with their musical tastes in general. Similar to Northern Europe they’re brilliant at hard, underground electronic music, their trap is next level. Kind of reflective of their harsh environment.
About Russia and phonk: As far as I know, I’m pretty sure a Russian or Russians had just been listening to phonk, and they began to like that style of music. This lead to some phonk being created in Russia, which caused the genre to spread like wildfire. To explain a little more, I’m pretty sure some people had found out about it online. The music being online helped a lot to spread phonk.
I think it stems from car mod culture, that originates from the cowbell heavy produced tokyo drift. Russians love their modded cars and tiktok was big on associating car mods with phonk (and cowbells) so the russians got it from there
Learn to play the drums and you will have the skills g..i also use my midi controller to lay down my hats but I've been playing the drums for over 20 years now so that's what's needed..drummers hands.loool.
there is actually WHOLE other section to phonk. what you made was memphis/drift styled phonk. people like soudiere, aseri or kloudbug are super talented too
@@prodfauxes why do you get tilted, this will happen to music no matter what, people be thinking carti is good music, when like 10 years ago it would have been complete dogshit. Not just rap, but this genre as well.
@@setz7260 because people for years have put their heart and soul into producing Phonk. Met some of my closest friends through the genre and to see it get fucked up like this makes me sad. No matter how much effort you put into it some tiktok moron gonna comment "its not phonk it don't got cowbells."
I *LOVE* watching you make anything. I'm so indecisive and slow and have to turn my beats up in post, but you just go at it full throttle without holding back 👌🏼
Phonk seems somewhat easy if you understand music theory and you can read music and know what flats and naturals and sharps sound like. Also knowing how to count music too. So basically a high school level orchestra or band member could make insane phonky beats.
@@rickylafleur9601 yeah but it’s the most basic stuff ever, you need MORE music theory to produce most other music, phonk is one of the genres that need the least music theory
Not music related, but this video is on another lever compared to your others. You wen't above and beyond not just learning the music sounds to emulate it, but to teach us some history as well! Thank you thank you thank you! * Also hat tip to your editor. Bravo!
I've been a fan of phonk since 2013. And the thing that disturbs me the most is that there are lots of other styles of phonk which might not be always that aggressive and people don't really know about them. Go listen to Sin, Subitsuji, Saudiere, Shelby. This kind of phonk is meant to be listened in a car but also relax and get the vibe from this deep bass sounds. Not every phonk beat has to be with this cowbell sound.
exactly what I think too. I hate gatekeeping or anything, but I think it’s kind of sad that phonk has become well known now but is being reduced to cowbell-drift bangers that you put in the background of some jdm tiktok. I listened to Soudiere and Inteus for a long time and only noticed that this laid-back music I liked so much was called phonk, because Spotify Wrapped told me it was one of my top genres lol
Lxst century is what introduced me to Phonk. Their music is so good I'm actually surprised it wasn't mentioned by the person who introduced it to you. Although all of the 3 songs you tried were good as well. To those being new to Phonk I'd recommend Lxst century - Odium, Captive, UNITY, Inspector awaking, kyoto, Vicious circle and cybercity
I come from growing up on dad's classic rock, discovering Disturbed as a teen and industrial synthwave as an adult a couple years back...then I discover aggressive ph0nk a month ago and I'm instantly hooked.
Honestly loved this man. Could you make some more phonk but ad a different twist on it. That twist is completely up to you. Cant wait if you end up making this
If this is what your channel is about I gotta stick around. Listening to music, delving into a quick history of the genre and then creating your own is a great concept even if it is only part of your content.
Im not into producing or making music at all, but I really appreciate your cool attitude to learn about new genres and put so much effort into the production
Whew. For you first phonk beat that was fire. I'm a heavy phonk listener and I watched this video to get some encouragement to produce. Thank you for making it look so easy.
video should be called "i learned how to make *drift* phonk in 24 hours". not tryna gatekeep, it's cool that people get more interested in phonk, but i just find it a lil sad a sub genre took over the spotify playlist and therefore rewrote what people define as phonk (like the guy giving you song recommendations did). an actual just phonk type beat would be closer to soudiere, inteus or dj smokey, for example. and because drift phonk is understood as just phonk, other sub genres often get buried or newer fans dont even recognise them as phonk anymore. cowbells are common in phonk, but they dont define the genre. lxst cxntury, kedela, anxtres, oldflop, bladefear, finivoid, blessed mane and so many more rarely get mentioned when people talk about phonk.
another type of phonk (vaportrap) is a combination of: jazz samples, trap drums with particular sound selection, chopped and screwed memphis rap vocals (huge credit on Dj Screw right here)
As a Memphian I appreciate how much the old music that I grew up on made it’s way across the globe. What’s even crazier is most of us here don’t even realize there is an entire culture influenced by Memphis Rap lol 🔥
So I just discovered you and your channel and I gotta say that I'm very glad I found this, the energy you put into these tutorials is insane, not like the average beatmaker on RUclips. You're even giving us a newsletter with all that content for free. I see you really enjoy this beatmaking world and you don't do it just for the money, I've been into this world for the last 7 months and i'm still learning so I repeat I'm really glad I found this channel, keep it like that man you're awesome ;) EDIT: I'm really impressed about your skills when it comes to draw the pattern on the drums specially those hi-hats, that was insane. Hope you see my comment
another tip on the vocals would be Bit Crushing them a little to give it that 'classic' phonk vibe, since its really not a too hard genre to make i actually learned it myself quite fast aswell! Keep up the insane work, lots of love from germany my dude!
Any chance you would like to talk more about your production? I’ve been working on figuring it out myself, and I struggle the most with making the bass sound explosive and aggressive
@@Bittamin Sure thing! So basically what I do is i slightly distort my basses while having a short snappy kick. U couls also boost the lows in your EQ but only if you really have the space for that, its kind of a balancing act. Praxi Plays has an insanely great how to phonk tutorial which helped me out in every step :)
Tbh the 2 songs that introduced me to phonk were Phonky Town and North Memphis, however in the end I went more in the direction of "Nightdrive phonk" (idk if that's a subgenre?) which is basically phonk but instead of the fast beats it has a more slow and chill vibe to it, I think my favourite songs to this day that represents very well what I mean is "Memphis Tape" by BLADEFEAR
same I really like memphis tape by BLADEFEAR but my fav type of "nightdrive phonk" is either 'GET AWAY II" by "MXRGX" and "NERONUS" or "ERROR" by "DCLXVI". I really like NightDrivePhonk becuase it has that vibe to it that makes it addicting, it goes perfect with night drives :)
Very nice and honest video with lots of background for those who didn’t know. I like how you incorporated the history part and especially dj spanish fly (the inventor) and the fact how much it has influenced today’s rap
dude, unrelated to the theme of the video, you're amazing. just found out your channel, best thing to ever happen. loved your energy, loved how you dedicate to learn new things and love how you are recording you just having fun. you have amazing talent, keep up. u just got a new sub
Big fan of phonk, and French, it's the first english video I've seen on the creation of phonk type music, and it's done by someone who doesn't know this genre. Incredible ! Great work, thanks for this super cool moment ! edit : thanks for the subtitles, it helps sometimes! edit 2 : Russians are fond of phonk, and a subgenre comes straight from them, the "drift phonk". as an example I can cite LXST CXNTURY, a russian drift phonk producer
Im a DJ/Music Producer, and i'll tell you right now, Phonk is really fun to make, but it's a challenge considering you have to find something to match it or create something to match a sample
Haha cool man! Watched the whole thing, that format is so cool, would love to see more of this with other "odd" genres or musicians, i love that you covered the old styles of phonk too. Also fire beat, you re so smooth on the keyboard!
Here are some popular phonk songs for those that would love to start listening to phonk. Each of them pretty much have their own unique style of phonk (chill, aggressive etc) I also ranked them based on youtube likes: DVRST - Close Eyes PlayaPhonk - PHONKY TOWN KSLV - Disaster FORGOTTENAGE - End of the world $WERVE - CITY LIGHT$ 5admin - Silence Beat them down | Jake OHM | Phonky drift edit Nissan Playa - mistake Hope you found yourself a new genre to start blasting to in your car
Before watching this video, I'm going to assume the final product will be Drift Phonk and that is what he'll understand as Phonk music and not what it is at it's base.
Not an expert. Russian is my second language, and as far I'm concerned, they like the hard hitting 808's, fast-paced rhythm and cowbell motives. Besides, it is quite easy to do (sorry, no harm). Plus you don't need to mix and master that much ('bad mix - good vibes' is actually what phonk runs on). They also like drifting very much. So, when phonk track with drifting cars started to come out on YT, I guess it was that time when Russian community strated to experiment with phonk and got a hand in it. A lot of phonk artists are from Russia. So yeah, Russia took it and made it their own thing, I suppose. They also have this saying like 'Фонкерам салам, остальным соболезную', which humourously means 'Salam to phonkers, my concoledences to the rest'. By this they address to the in-crowd phonk artists and listeners.
Russian culture in many aspects is a mixture of many world cultures, which makes it collective and, at the same time, separate. That's what exactly happened to phonk: we love it, we take it and we evolve it
What music software do u use bc I don’t know what software to use and so many of them are incredibly confusing and complicated. I just got a beat pad (mpk mini play akai professional) what software should I use??
everyone knows DJ Smokey is the real source of all this by far for years ... Spaceghostpurrp coined the term and had a lot of very popular sound effects but DJ Smokey put the whole sound on his back since the origination days "Whachu stealin' boxes for? What you tryna build, a clubhouse?" that's exactly what he did. TikTok kids and others need to pay their due respects
Hey @EdTalenti, you don't only need a cowbell for the melody, you can use another sound (idk the name) but as a reference, listen to Disaster by KSLV (I'd recommend just listen to the drop). That sound is nasty af. As always, keep up the good work!
My dude…..dayum! 🥴 My story is simple. I come from the world of metal. Bought an STi, and with that and RUclips , came Phonk. Now I’m hooked as sXit! Also, you have a great beat and mix!
Man, I discovered phonk in middle of 2022 but really got into it in the December of 2022. Just listening to it makes me feel like Homelander, floating above the city staring down, ready to wreck havoc.
You should check out soudiere, always proper, freddy konfeddy or DJ Smokey 🙏🏼 chill sample based phonk > cowbell phonk. for me that’s the real deal and I’d love a video with this style
I think the missing link as to how Phonk recently blew up and made it all the way to Russia is Terriyaki Boyz "Tokyo Drift". The song itself, I have a strong feeling, was inspired by the Memphis aesthetic. That said, the Tokyo Drift intro with the bell melody just fit so perfectly with drifting. Like, whenever you see a car gliding sideways the first thing you think about is "bells". Unfortunately, that song was kind of the only one that sounded that way, and it left a void that drift and tuner enthusiasts needed to be filled. So my speculation is, when the first recent revival of Memphis rap came out, drift racing enthusiasts immediately jumped in on the music... Russians did so more than anybody else. It also fit the Russian illegal street drift culture perfectly. When I first heard of Phonk, it reminded me a lot of Tokyo Drift. I loaded the song on an editor and stripped off the beat. On my controller I played this track on top of a hard-hitting Trap type beat and boy was it a match made in heaven.

dude, unrelated to the theme of the video, you're amazing. just found out your channel, best thing to ever happen. loved your energy, loved how you dedicate to learn new things and love how you are recording you just having fun. you have amazing talent, keep up. u just got a new sub
Big fan of phonk, and French, it's the first english video I've seen on the creation of phonk type music, and it's done by someone who doesn't know this genre. Incredible ! Great work, thanks for this super cool moment !
edit : thanks for the subtitles, it helps sometimes!
edit 2 : Russians are fond of phonk, and a subgenre comes straight from them, the "drift phonk". as an example I can cite LXST CXNTURY, a russian drift phonk producer
Im a DJ/Music Producer, and i'll tell you right now, Phonk is really fun to make, but it's a challenge considering you have to find something to match it or create something to match a sample
No sabes cuanto necesitaba esto, el phonk es mi genero favorito y tu eres el productor que mas me inspira dia a dia, gracias Ed, eres un genio!
Love your vibe man,especially the positivity
Keep the good work up

4:33 whats this song though?
Before watching this video, I'm going to assume the final product will be Drift Phonk and that is what he'll understand as Phonk music and not what it is at it's base.
I'm 32 lived in Memphis my whole life and to see people just now learning about our Music is crazy to me.
Not an expert.
Russian is my second language, and as far I'm concerned, they like the hard hitting 808's, fast-paced rhythm and cowbell motives. Besides, it is quite easy to do (sorry, no harm). Plus you don't need to mix and master that much ('bad mix - good vibes' is actually what phonk runs on). They also like drifting very much. So, when phonk track with drifting cars started to come out on YT, I guess it was that time when Russian community strated to experiment with phonk and got a hand in it. A lot of phonk artists are from Russia.
So yeah, Russia took it and made it their own thing, I suppose. They also have this saying like 'Фонкерам салам, остальным соболезную', which humourously means 'Salam to phonkers, my concoledences to the rest'. By this they address to the in-crowd phonk artists and listeners.
Russian culture in many aspects is a mixture of many world cultures, which makes it collective and, at the same time, separate. That's what exactly happened to phonk: we love it, we take it and we evolve it
@@pasta4u2 подтверждаю ✅🤝
Фонкерам салам, остальным соболезную
@@raebmalo1098 салам
Послушай DVRST тоже чел с России
Phonk / Memphis Rap has always been cool. I liked it a lot in 2011 when spaceghost was hot. I think modern phonk is a little too cowbelly 😅
Facts I just listen to underground / wavy phonk like DJ Smokey, Always Proper and etc
Thats because mainstream media such as tiktok made the lines between phonk and its subgenres such a drift phonk (cowbells) very blurred.
Yeah this is not phonk is a drift phonk but even a autor of the video call it "phonk" pfff
Some songs dont have as mucj cowbell tho like this ruclips.net/video/RzUQO35nWxY/видео.html
@@kawhiie1108 it's infuriating lol
Took you a while to cover Memphis rap, but this is the video that the genre deserves. Thanks Ed.

What music software do u use bc I don’t know what software to use and so many of them are incredibly confusing and complicated. I just got a beat pad (mpk mini play akai professional) what software should I use??
My Genre Since 2014... Im soo proud.. im gonna cry in BLOOD.
Had me smiling through the whole video. Thoroughly enjoyed it, props to you!
It's Nice To See That People Are Recognising Phonk/Cowbell in general the underground. very proud of my community!
He never said METAMORPHOSIS or MURDER IN MY MIND??? I still love it
this was GENUINELY entertaining, and the beat was FIIIIRE
This is a ‘Drift Phonk’ song, a sub genre of Phonk. There’s so much more to Pho than just fast paced cowbell songs
"174 that is so fast!"
People who make breakcore/jungle: "Am I a joke to you?"
Chłop mnie tym rozpierdolił! :D
D0PE job man!
This clearly deserves a part two. Fun video.
Phonk genre are 🔥🤙🏻❤
Love from Philippines 🇵🇭 btw
everyone knows DJ Smokey is the real source of all this by far for years ... Spaceghostpurrp coined the term and had a lot of very popular sound effects but DJ Smokey put the whole sound on his back since the origination days "Whachu stealin' boxes for? What you tryna build, a clubhouse?" that's exactly what he did. TikTok kids and others need to pay their due respects
Phonk is my favorite genre of music, one of my favorite songs are like Murder Plot and Sahara
Hey @EdTalenti, you don't only need a cowbell for the melody, you can use another sound (idk the name) but as a reference, listen to Disaster by KSLV (I'd recommend just listen to the drop). That sound is nasty af. As always, keep up the good work!
disaster uses the same cowbell just pitched down
Each time he added a new beat/sound thingy the more I got hyped with him 😂
6:06 How did you do that?
My dude…..dayum! 🥴
My story is simple.
I come from the world of metal.
Bought an STi, and with that and RUclips , came Phonk.
Now I’m hooked as sXit!
Also, you have a great beat and mix!
4:13 I have to say I am Russian by nature and not gonna lie,
when I discovered Phonk a couple years ago. I fell in love
LOVE IT BRO!!!
omfg phonk is reaching a high level of popularity, and I am proud
As Russian i can say, phonk is mainstream already
@@MrSpektraFantom lol, that's cool
Phonk 4 life 💙
Ufff, damn phonk guy!😈 Keep going, good luck!😉
7:10 DEEPER ON THE VOICE 😎
Man, I discovered phonk in middle of 2022 but really got into it in the December of 2022. Just listening to it makes me feel like Homelander, floating above the city staring down, ready to wreck havoc.
same, i'm disappointed that i didn't know about it earlier
The genre that gives you superiority complex
@@trtorio "I'm better, I'm stronger!"
You should check out soudiere, always proper, freddy konfeddy or DJ Smokey 🙏🏼 chill sample based phonk > cowbell phonk. for me that’s the real deal and I’d love a video with this style
sample based phonk is my go to
Thanks for your s/o my guy - I appreciate u 🥳
@@realfreddykonfeddy.mp3 yooooo the man himself 🤞🏼 thank you for making awesome music!
@@n1te620 My pleasure b - Thx for listening and support me out here - Much luv man 🥳💜
I think the missing link as to how Phonk recently blew up and made it all the way to Russia is Terriyaki Boyz "Tokyo Drift". The song itself, I have a strong feeling, was inspired by the Memphis aesthetic.
That said, the Tokyo Drift intro with the bell melody just fit so perfectly with drifting. Like, whenever you see a car gliding sideways the first thing you think about is "bells". Unfortunately, that song was kind of the only one that sounded that way, and it left a void that drift and tuner enthusiasts needed to be filled. So my speculation is, when the first recent revival of Memphis rap came out, drift racing enthusiasts immediately jumped in on the music... Russians did so more than anybody else. It also fit the Russian illegal street drift culture perfectly.
When I first heard of Phonk, it reminded me a lot of Tokyo Drift. I loaded the song on an editor and stripped off the beat. On my controller I played this track on top of a hard-hitting Trap type beat and boy was it a match made in heaven.
