    At just 24 years of age, Montréal producer Kaytranada - real name Louis Kevin Celestin - has already emerged as the next in a long line of great beat-making talents from his hometown. Getting his start in his city’s Artbeat community, he first gained international recognition for an unofficial Janet Jackson remix.
    He toured with Madonna in 2015, and in 2016 the Haitian-born artist released the soulfully retro 99.9%, his debut album on XL Recordings. The record puts his myriad passions - Dilla’s beats, old disco oddities and ’90s R&B - on full display.
    In his 2016 Red Bull Music Academy lecture, Kaytranada traced his early rise to fame from a sleepy Montréal suburb to collaborations with established artists, digging in Brazil and finding his sound. .

    Thanks for puttinng out these interviews on here they are great. If you could ask more in depht music production questions i think that would be interesting for the audience here i assume there is quiet alot of producers here wanting to learn. Rather than just knowing what music he likes.

    @DunkMasterflex53 7 лет назад +43

    The interviewer done her research and she's a good writer. But if she approached this as more of a conversation where you listen and process what the other person is saying and let it flow she could of asked better questions. Luckily he gave detailed responses to such questions.

    @62:48 in FL studio if you have a sample in Edison and select 'Convert right or left channel to mono' from the tools menu sometimes elements of the song get erased and what's left is some shit you didn't even know was there. Like a whole piano will just vanish and some background vocal will pop uo that you didnt know about. Jake one showed himself doing that with a sample for the 3 kings beats he did for Dr dre rick Ross.

    • @Deeshaw91
      @Deeshaw91 7 лет назад +2

      naminamicapybara and me like when the lead breaks on your headphones and you hear the left side or right side of the song it's like you can hear the multi track masters comin through

    • @ilikescreaming
      @ilikescreaming 4 года назад +12

      Phase cancellation. Both sides of your headphones will have a positive and negative lead in the wire running to the driver. These pos and neg leads feed the speakers electrical current and basically push the speaker out or pull it in, making sound. Ok, so if you have a short in your broken headphones, it's possible that the positive and negative is flipped and this is where the fun starts. Usually something like vocals comes through on both left and right equally, so if your headphone's short flips the phase, the vocal can be cancelled out, because the speakers are playing the same thing, but out of phase with each other (inverse waveform with each other). Google 'phase cancellation' for audio examples. The cancelling out of the vocals (or any material that is played equally on both L and R) will only leave the material that is more spaced out on the stereo spectrum, and that's why you hear the other backing stuff that is more stereo.

    • @Coflo
      @Coflo 7 лет назад +3

      I don't think its fair to say the music has been "whitewashed" but I get the undertone and can understand the sentiment. Various stories tel us that much more than just "house and rock" were created by "black Americans". Much of this countries music gifts to the world have their roots in that of Black America: Jazz, Blues, Funk, Rock, House, Hip Hop.

      +Galaxzy By white washed I assume you mean, taken over by a "corporate, mainly european decent" infrastructure that is selling out "the culture"? I think its just a state of mind. There is plenty of amazing rock and and blues that has moved on from its humble beginnings (time keeps rolling forward) but hasn't "sold out"...and there is also some that is still coming from the deep country side I'm sure haha
