What I appreciate about your channel?
No ego, no guilt tripping, no BS. Your experience is worth taking the time to watch, I’ve had enough of shamming people, criticizing other producers, let’s just make music, release it, realtime live. ❤️ ✌🏼
Sometime the best track is not the more complicated... In France we have proverb: " in the life the best thing are very often the more simple" it's the same for beatmaking. You have right Marlow 👍
Good saying

please, may I ask how that looks in French. I need to know the proverb in French, please!

yes agree 100% I actually stopped mixing and mastering my tracks in Ableton... I just found a way to do everything in the MPC (standalone and software) and I'm happier this way. I know some additional plugins could get me a cleaner sound but my mixing has improved so much just by not having to look at my pc screen during the process.

Thanks for being transparent and happy Friday Homie ✌🏻🫡
Work smarter not harder is my motto so this really speaks to me.
I love the simplicity of it. It’s natural and not overly processed.
gOOD JOB HOMEY,, thats exactly how I make my beats and tunes. I thinnk that freestyle for 10 to 20 minutes is so important to get some soul on the track. and then go in and take out the bad and arrange the good! thats pro style !
Easy and effective
I just want to chill out with this dude for like, ever!
one of the best videos on creating songs Ive seen. Easy to forget why we do this.
Thanks for that one!
I don’t listen to much youtube beatmaking content. I don’t really care for it.
But the authenticity of your channel is what gets me. Thanks for doing this and keeping it real.

Proud to see im not the only one who “perform” his tracks into daw as a way of recording my mixtapes and at the same time givin that live flavour🙌🏻🙌🏻
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
you say unprofessional, I say perfect way of just letting it all go and having fun. Nice video.
That's it
This is so refreshing. I spend so long trying to do something "the proper away" I end up getting fed up. Thanks Marlow.
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
We all feel that at a certain point, as long as it sounds good it doesn't matter how you do it.
This is a great method, pretty much the way I do things. Jamming, experimenting, making mistakes as well as making magic, then cutting together the best stuff.
🙏🏼 if it works is all we need
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
Thank you for this!
Hey hermano thanks for stopping by
Simple but amazing. What a great idea Marlow. Thanks for sharing
man totally what I needed to hear today. overthink things a lot. vibes #1`
I really appreciate your videos Marlow. Thanks for dropping these gems.
Love this channel, man. Your music always has that special sauce and you seem like such a genuine human. No bullshit, no hype, just buttery smooth beats and honest insight.
✌🏼thanks man appreciate that
What a cool method! Preciate the perspective Marlow 🙏🏿
Thanks for another inspiring vid. I have been struggling with the loop-to-full-song jump, particularly on my polyend tracker. Even though I make very different music to you, I find your sound, outlook and whole aesthetic so engaging and enjoyable. You have a great vibe.
My favourite vid of yours is the one where you emphasised the importance of putting your work out there. It really changed the way I thought about production. I've put my music out there a lot more, and it has helped my musical growth a great deal.
Thanks again.
Great to hear that. Thanks for tuning in 🙏🏼
Cant wait for the new album!!!
Man please never stop posting❤
Thanks 🙌🏼
Love this process, so straightforward and really supports creativity. I'm a huge believer in using simple processes to achieve challenging or creative results 👏
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
Great process Marlow!
Man Marlow, thanks for sharing. I really appreciate these videos. Really cool way of exploring the possibilities when arranging with the MPC. Also, your tracks are always inspiring to listen to. Much respect 🔥
Thanks 🙏🏼
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
Ooo this is a really good idea. I love jamming with mutes and solos and stuff so this makes a lot of sense to me. Love your videos always, you’re so chill
beats always flawless in every video but lets talk about this new streaming set up and video setting. keep it up man channel is perfect
Thanks for sharing this Marlow 🙏🏼
Love the mentality! Nice video
Love your method. Refreshing.
Jam sessions are what's missing this days. Back in the days that's exactly how great albums were put out. Some of the best recordings are live sets were the artist was just living in the moment.
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
Yeah my vibe gets killed as soon I sit in front of ableton :(
Great candid video. Love it
Your videos are a refreshing insight on how artists compose their own means of production 😁
I appreciate the time you have taken to articulate your thoughts in an easily digestible manner, it is clear that you have a deep passion for music. 👍👍
My pleasure as always ✌🏼
Marlow is still the best as usual super humble and great beats!
Your sequencing style gives the music a live feeling, which is your style. And it works great for you.
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
this albums been good for studying man - thanks marlow
Thank you 🙏🏼
I love your beats, and your work philosophy, I have long struggled with the idea of making the process more pleasant and less laborious.
Blessings from Argentina.
♥
Great video... love the process. I found it useful on most occassions for exploring options. Nothing has to be concrete and the possibilities endless, however is a great way to see what sounds best. Keep up the killer work brother. Just picked up my MPC X this morning... pretty stoked! ✌🧡👍
Inspiring man! Thanks for showing us.
Your album is incredible with very pleasant rhythms when listening to them, a great musical work without a doubt for me, thanks to your advice and my hearing improved day by day when listening to rhythms in different musical genres and I was able to create my own rhythms, you give good advice by creating a beat and creating good content, leaving something positive for the community that follows him and listens to his work, there is no doubt that his next album will leave nothing to be desired when listening to it, greetings and blessings, Master Marlow
Thanks Jei appreciate you 🙏🏼
Great Explanation of your work.
I Digs the process man, bless.
Great insights and Straight talk as usual 🙏🏼🥳
This is Gold! Thanks .
This was encouraging to hear. Most of the time I just jam with whatever instrument (usually hardware), and then I find something that has promise. It may sound terrible to most, but if I enjoy it, that's all that matters to me.
Thanks foe sharing the knowledge! Sooooo many ways yo build with the MPC. Using loops is cool especially once they're dressed up!!
Oh my eyes are bleeding the video is so sharp 😂 I can read the words on the computer in the front and the keyboard in the back 😂 damn headphones on top of the roads look like they floating 😂 just giving you a hard time bro I’ve been binging on your content lately 🧠💎 appreciate you 💎
Thanks for tuning in to my work 🙌🏼. Filming in 6k helps
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on arranging and how you do it. Really helpful. peace
The way doesn't matter but the goal does
Marlow...thank you brother...for all your content! ..
🙏🏼 thanks for tuning in to the channel
I do the same lately with my arranged songs going through the maschine perform FX a couple of rounds and gluing it together :D
Handy way to plug your music while you're at it! Nice tunes :)
Inspiring as always!
If it feels good, then it’s good, Marco! Glad you show us what feels good to your flow because that’s what creativity is all about! Good to hop on and see you again :-)
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
you just sent me on a whole new trajectory, thank you
Don't take my words as rules, find your space, happy journey
I think finding ones own process can make you you...you start to have your own sound and that’s ultimate goal of a man or woman of music. Good shit man
That's it 👊🏼
really interesting man, love Come Home by the way.
Similar way i do my production, thanks marlow, in all honesty is just the flow and vibes you get that presents itself in the work
Nice worflow, and i really like the presentation here - nice idea with that second monitor.
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html.
Thank you!
Love your vibes! I 100% create in song mode on the MPC (just mess with different variations of sequences until I'm happy). Thanks for showing your process. Really interesting. Love that Come Home beat tape, its a classic to me personally. Artwork was spot on aswell.
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
Great technique
Bro
Thank-you man
I be learn on a Roland fantom and if made so many loops and vibe .
I been really struggling to build it a full song I love the idea of free-styling then rearranging like you have inspire .
Really simple idea
Jam and flow then chop so gonna fit my style
Thanks for Insperation
Thanks for sharing
I really enjoy that album 👌🔥❤️
Man thank you for making this video. My biggest struggle was always arrangement. I actually do it exactly like this. The biggest takeaway which can hinder us is making music YOU LIKE. If it makes you feel good go for it. Making music is personal expression of self. Enjoy the process and rock on good people. ☮️ & blessings.
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
101% right words!
Thanks for the behind the scenes. I used to just record jams with hardware and just use the DAW to record. Then going back and taking the parts that turned out good for my EPS. I need to get back to that again.
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
I like this! Up till now, i've been essentially messing around trying to make beats via a jam session...I could see this extra step making the process alot more relaxing lol!
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
thank you!!!!
Love the video, the set up is great and the lack of chops in the video makes it feel like you really there experiencing it. Keep up the work Marlow
Thanks ✌🏼
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
i do it like you, i love simple workflow and it just gives me a good feeling to work like that.
Pete Rock said : keep it simple bro!!!
great Video.Thanks
Thanks 🙌🏼
Nice vid. Do you mix with your headphones or your loudspeakers?
Hi Matthew, I'm a headphone guy
@@mpchead Cool, thanks for the response.
beat treatment is a subject too
I just cut a sample and loop it 3 times for 3 bars and then let sample play out from the 3rd bar to the 4th and it never really gets more complex then that. I might sometimes make several one minute beat loops using a different part of the sample and then add that all together.
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
Sounds like a good approach. I normally jam around and then replicate the patterns I like within the hardware or just record the final piece as a one shot. But I'd like to experiment with the way you do it, I think it can sound more natural / improvised at times, although you need to spend more time in the daw re-listening to bits, glueing them together etc. Thanks for sharing!
brother your music is beatiful bro going to listen to you at work tomorow
This is the same that i do! I tought i was the only one hahaha! I prefer to jam it live.
This is how I made some beats more natural I also have mop live but song mode makes it feel more stiff .good job
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
thanks!
Thanx!
Really nice beat, man. I wish I could get that good.
If it sounds good, it is good. This has made me think about a few particular tracks that I have that already sound good as they are coming out of my ISLA S2400. Great timing with this video
Appreciate you sharing this video. Sometimes mixing can be a daunting word and one persons way isnt the always the other persons way.✌️
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html.
una maravilla
I thought I was the only one that records "unprofessionally" lol atleast you get to do it all on one machine..I literally record everything separately(drum machines,synths, guitars etc)into a interface. Chopping and arranging is the last thing I do then pay an engineer to do mix and mastering. 😅
He is basically doing the same as Me but I use Reason.
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
interesting process. I reflexively go straight for programming everything out but this method certainly would give it a looser and organic vibe. I will definitely work this into my process. 🍕
Dope bro. I'd love to see you do a several hour master lass showing this process in more detail on the MPC-X. Maybe a play by play of you recording a whole EP.
good stuff
This is a great video! You just inspired some ideas on arranging beats in a similar way.
Whatever works for you, don't be forced into any ideological position on beatmaking, just be free and express yourself the way you want.
That's a dope way man! When I record the complete beat i made on the mpc or on the sp404 or whatever is not a daw usually i record it on the sp404 with all the mute track and dynamics but I have to think about the arrangement before doing it and practice a lil bit cuz if i make a mistake or i don't like that record i have to try it again and again. Interesting approach man!
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
pfff. i knew it. been overthinking technicals stuff all the time. lololol. thanks for this, ive been jamming similarly with separate apps not synced considering myself cheating all the time feeling i have to take into proper format etc.. im a relax now and get stuff completed hahahah.
Yeah that's what I do now, just relax and do it in a way that makes me not stress about the process.
That's so brilliant! Cutting and pasting a jam to make it a final track My lazy ass is totally gonna try that and see if I can do it too haha
"So unprofessional," says the professional. Love this album, fam. Repeat.
🙏🏼thanks
I like this approach, spent years not putting stuff out, because I thought it all had to be stemmed out and done properly! All the stuff I done on the fly was arranged better just wish I had spent more time mixing in my mpc. Do you use logics master clock and sync on the mpc so it’s easier to slice up in logic?
Great video as usual!
No I don't sync it, just a regular audio recording, but what you're saying makes sense and would help the process.
ruclips.net/video/lknUchX9BpE/видео.html
We all do this differently sometimes I put it in the DAW most recently now in standalone arrangements,mix just a 2track then master in studio one
I do a similar thing to him when recording My own synthesizer or other instrument, I just record Me playing around and jamming and then chop out what I like and then I'll make that into a track.

You've earned a new subscriber lol. Question: how do you use these samples in your public releases? Do you pay for a license? Are they public domain/fair use? I also have a slew of records and love chopping them, but I'm reluctant to release them out of fear of the legal side of things.
