That 2000s Neptunes sound is making a massive comeback. Man I wish Pharrell & Chad would resolve their differences because this would be a goldmine for them.
Dude, you‘re a menace. Your game has gotten ridiculously good those last 1-2 years. And you‘ve always been a godly producer. At this point I couldn’t tell if it’s you or one of those A-list guys producing. They gotta recognize you soon and get you on a Taylor Swift record or something for you to make them biiig moneys! No one deserves it more than you on here.
Thank you so much! This just made my morning ❤️ I’m definitely always striving to get better. I’ve had some opportunities open up over the last year that will be huge when they unfold. And I’m getting to know top tier industry people a little bit more every day so I’m excited to see what the future holds 😁
Hands down my favorite production channel. What genre can't this man do? Taught us how to produce country and Neptunes style r&b within the span of two weeks. Insane versatility.
I really appreciate the way you plug packs and plugins. Quick, helpful, and informative. You don’t shove it down my throat for so long that I am no longer interested in the product. Not a lot of people doing that.
You snapped on this one, this is fire. I’d def recommend the new Tori Kelly record if you haven’t heard it. Jon Bellion produced it and it’s full of these influences!
Yeah it's so fire! We did a tutorial a year ago inspired by Cut and Seven by Jung Kook (Jon Bellion productions that rely on that Y2K UK Garage influence)
Amazing tutorial Austin ❤❤🔥thanks, i will give a try on this style; could you make a video about 80s city pop, its so goood 😍i would love a tutorial from you.
Tyler lewis released an incredible r&b EP the other day it would be great if you made a video on how to do production for songs like eventually / fly on the wall from that EP!
my productions are normally MUCH more layered than this so I actually found the arrangement of this style pretty simple to mix personally. It's basically just: Big knocking drums, thick low end, main keys cut through, tight vocal up the middle. Everything else can be sprinkled in to taste
I'll also say almost NO layers in this have any processing (eq, compression, saturation, etc). The kick has Knock on it, and the main keys have a slight high shelf to add some top end. That's really it outside of the vocal chains. It's really just about picking the right sounds and getting them to mesh well.
@MakePopMusic Must be just me then! I guess I might have a problem with picking which layers I want to be more present and which layers I can shave off a bit of frequencies / dynamics etc. Which isn't a problem for me with the "newer" sound since it's much more focussed on bass. I feel the rest kind of comes second. At least, that's how I perceive the newer productions. Thanks for your reply! P.s. I really think that "Picking the right sounds" is an underrated tip. If it doesn't sit right.. maybe not use it haha
I can't argue. All of the artists I mentioned are definitely pop r&b. Tbh, it just felt clunky in the title and thumbnail. And our channel is already called Make POP Music so everything we do will basically have the basis of a pop record, just with other influences thrown on it.
Obwohl ich jetzt erst amfange dein Video zu gucken, weiss ich, dass es ein Banger wird. Sorry, dass ich Deutsch schreibe, hab keine Lust auf Google Translate zu übersetzen. 😅
I mean I don’t disagree. But it was wildly popular in the 90s and 2000s too. So I may have to argue it was totally appreciated when it was getting popular. But this sound is for sure rooted in black culture and black music
@@MakePopMusic ive not done a deep dive on your channel....so i dont know that you've actually done a video on how black music creates trends that are eventually used(being cordial here) by white artists. although this sound was popular, it was popular because of black consumers... the artists and producers were the culture drivers and only the biggest of pop stars came over to bridge gaps(timberlake) but the industry as a whole did not appreciate it(and never have appreciate black contribution to western music).. for a newer generation of fans and future creatives, i think its important for a channel like yours to educate people on this. you are not obligated to do anything obviously...but this tommy richman hype is honestly disgusting because the song is awful and its just a watered down version of something that was significantly better and if we can agree that the foundation of the sound is black, i think going a bit further in a video than the neptunes would help.
I feel you. But the reason the neptunes were the main mention is because this video is based on THEIR specific sound. Yes, there were tons of black producers and songwriters of the 90s and 2000s putting their stamp on the industry (look at Rodney Jerkins, Babyface, Quincy Jones, The Underdogs, The-Dream, etc). But all of their sound isn’t the specific reference for this video. I mentioned Clipse, Ludacris, Nelly all as artists who also used this sound, but their vocals and overall style outside of the production didn’t really fit the reference either. At the end of the day, I totally understand I’m just a suburban white dude so it may not be my place to weigh in on the significance of black people’s contributions to music and culture, but I definitely do respect and have also been inspired by that community, even as an outsider.
We have definitely EXTENSIVELY discussed how most cultural trends are actually pioneered by marginalized communities (black culture and hip hop, reggaeton and the Latin community, dance music and the queer community, etc) on our podcast. I’m well aware that most white derived pop culture is just taking other peoples cultures from the past and watering it down.
@@MakePopMusic i respect your channel. just trying to keep things progressive because its important. the tommy richman thing is a grotesque display of cultural appropriation and its def not fair to place burden on you to speak on it...but i did want to weigh in on that. as for neptunes, their sound was heavily influenced by teddy riley who helped give them space(and other virginia producers like timbaland, missy, etc). there is a common thread there. at the end of the day you're doing god's work. its appreciated. just wanted to weigh in.

Who wants this sound to make a BIG comeback? I'm all about it right now 🙌🏻
This sound hits my spirit perfectly.
That 2000s Neptunes sound is making a massive comeback. Man I wish Pharrell & Chad would resolve their differences because this would be a goldmine for them.
I need a new album from The Neptunes so god damn bad. Both absolute goats
Why are they beefing?

Blows my mind how EVERY SINGLE TRACK you make for these videos just sounds INSANELY GOOD and like the artists you’re aiming for. Super inspirational
Thank you so much!
This is the best producing tutorial channel I've found for sure
Thank you!
Born in 91. So the 00s were my teenage years. Hearing your production on this, it felt like home❤
So glad this style is coming back. The bounce is unreal! Great video as always!
I need my neck to snap baby!! Bring it back!
Yes!! This is what I expect from this channel, music from the 90s and 2000s

You SNAPPED 😤🥶🥶🔥
Thank you my man!!
I reallly do enjoy your content!! as a fellow cubase user this stuff is gold.

All the sounds came together, very good!
masterful stuff once again,,- great arrangement and sound detail.
Loved Neptunes especially Rockstar back in the day, great video!
Bro! Well done! This is incredible
Man you absolutely nailed this 👌
damn bro has got the sauce with these tutorials.
Congratulations for your new keyboard 🎉
Another pioneer of this R&B style is Rodney Jerkins aka Darkchild.
Amazing bro so much knowledge. Thanks a million
Amazing tutorial Austin ❤❤🔥thanks, i will give a try on this style; could you make a video about 80s city pop, its so goood 😍i would love a tutorial from you.

Or even a FLO style track
This as an artist from Virginia!! ❤ bless you
Came for the tutorial, left wanting that banger full on spotify
Absolute heat. 🤑
Can you make a video on how to make a Michael Jackson that sounds like it’s off the Bad album
could even use the free vst instrument My AI Jack for a bit of ear candy
Definitely just subscribed 😅
Dude this is fire
5:30 Sounds like it would fit perfectly in Persona 4
This SLAPS
thank you king!!
Damn this was on POINT.
appreciate that!!
that was so good
13:30 down shifting synth
Thanks for another awesome video. Would you consider doing some popular folk, like Wardruna (perhaps playing Gra) or Heilung (Anoana)?
Finish and release this.
New Jack swing song would be sick, love the videos
Oooo that would be fun! I love some new jack swing!
Is it just me, or is the hardest part of making 00's R&B the mixing of all the layers?

Big knocking drums, thick low end, main keys cut through, tight vocal up the middle. Everything else can be sprinkled in to taste

7:45 buzz bass

I basically did with the strings I used lol
22:15 run down
JIMIN MENTIONED ‼️
Jimin’s whole new project is so fire 🙏🏻
@@MakePopMusic w take ‼️
Some of these aren’t “y2k R&B” a lot of stuff like Tommy richman is more R&B funk or just funk inspired in general
pls pnd vocal mix
Can I please ask what sotfware you are using?
Please make a video on how to make a song like Conan Gray's newest album, Found Heaven!!
I don’t know if it’s to late to ask, but this sound @ 13:41 from Omnisphere, could you please tell me the name of that sound?
I'll go back to the session and look. It was one of the little blip arps out of the retro section I believe
How do I hit 10% of this sauce level damn
Would love to see more brakence stuff or quadeca ❤
ooo that would be fun!
15:00 synth はkey と同じ
Can you makd the free preset for vital too
16:50 bass 3種類
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Slow it down about 3bpm
4:15 octave lower
RNB austin nailed it! The vocals fit perfectly
next afrohouse
❄️💨
Lounge Lizard!
that one is fire too! This Rhodes stuff is next level though.
Also Sounds like the sweetner production for Ariana grande.
Also produced by Pharrell so that makes sense 😁
@@MakePopMusic True, I forgot about that.🙈
😮
Can you do a giveaway of the ls 208 and rig me to win?
R&B?????? This is Pop

"how to use blk people's music 30 years after they did because we didnt appreciate it when they were doing it"
