Anticipation and Excitement build as your music takes your listener through an increase of energy and tension. Provide enough pressure, and your drop sounds strong. Provide enough change, and your drop sounds Exciting.
As a producer, you need to understand the vital role a buildup plays in your music. For example, if we go from 60mph to 80mph, this change in speed is less exciting than going from 0MPH to 100MPH. The energy shift is more substantial, starting from a standstill. The same thing applies to music buildups. If you build up with 80% of the elements and drop at 100%, there is a 20% change. Is this change enough to make your drop feel more significant and exciting? That is up to you to d-ecide based on your genre.
However, every single tip you will learn in this video will provide a more exciting setup for your drop. It's up to you to control what information you use and how much change you decide to implement to execute the HouSE Techno Build UP.
Pre-Drops can work and I encourage you to use them in tracks that warrant them, but don't make the mistake of over-using them. I wish I wouldn't have used them too much. Take it from ME...
With these tips, you should have a good review of how you can create effective build ups for your House/Techno tracks. Use the knowledge and adapt it to your songs to create the best setup for your drops.

Being a DJ has made me a better producer & being a producer has made me a better DJ
The circle of life.
Track at end is dope!
omg
I’m so excite yay
Soo many great tips, omg thank you so much for these gold tips master Zen world. Every battle is won before it's fought is one of my fav quotes
Awesome video bro! Definitely something I'd like to try in my stuff.
Thanks dude!!! I kinda knew how to use foreshadowing works but I didn’t know it had a name 🤓 always learn on your channel
always helpful. ty
Thanks for the video 🎉
Thank you my professor😊🎉❤
Master Zen your the Man 👊🏼
Yes! Pre drops and fake outs can be annoying sometimes for sure while mixing 🫠🫠 Really good video once again 🌐🌐🌐
Amazing video
great video! nice ferrari btw
The subtle humor in this video is too good
Thanks!
I liked that song on the foreshadowing part.
Nice video man
Yes Zen. Appreciate this….You need some space on that hard drive lad ❤
13:40 "Probably end up trashing" ???? Is BRUTAL! Do not dare, (please). Im getting it BP if you get it out
Love this master and his analogies! Not too much peanut butter on the bread! ;)
That track that u said u might bin sounds 🔥 if it was a little faster. Would love to see your vocal writing process
The track is fucking sick
Nice one, really useful ma g (4:32 sounds to weak for our track imo but defo works for some other tracks out there)
Great vid as always Zen! Lawdy love your vids.
But I just wanted to know: How are you enjoying those headphones?
Thinking of getting them.
Love them make stuff sound clear and not good... Which is good for the mixing and tracking side of stuff
Nice video!! Sick song in the end mate! :) For the dj'ing part and predrop...Mix out faster a few songs in a row / loop sections before the drop to mix into to and / or prep your set
holy fuck zen i’m your fan 🥺
This track is sick - you should drop this
10:40 Kream Remix... Love those guys work.
As a dj i personally like songs with a regular drop that way if I want too I can create a predrop live
11:01 … I ONLY play pre-drops in my set. Back to back to back. 😎
13:47 - 14:30 is B I T C H I N B R O. I'm gonna work on something similar with a trance track. I love that technique. DOPE AF. I've been in the rave scene since 96, and I'm telling you thats badass. I keep replaying this so I can assemble something similar in my own tracks. Much love (no homo) lol.
It's 2023 my guy, you don't need to say no homo
You should do a video about fred again, he is killing it
Alright then, keep your secrets!!
8:29 VOY!
Thanks Zen.. super useful this one.. as a DJ, I personally don't really look at pre-drops as a separate factor when choosing the next song to play but mixing out must start at the pre-drop to maintain phrasing so it can get tricky if we're not paying attention.. Luckily most DJ gear allows you to put a colored cue point to remind you where to mix out..
yes am a dj and you are right, too many Predrops these days, unless it sounds phenomenal or unique, it just sounds too try hard
Too much peanut butter? What the fuck Zen!!!!
I miss the low end but i think i miss zen world more
how good this track is back to this video to get some help for my build up today, realizing one more time how much this channel helps and how much I like listening to Zen's music. Best mentor of 2023 is Zen World for me again. same as 2022 same as 2021.
Can we get a break down of that project file ?
I also would love to see a video on that.
YO you know that track is fire stop lyin 😂🤣😂
Nice vid! Obviously you're not the biggest 'Deeper purpose' fan, haha 😀
Oh just used for B Roll footage
tensionnnn
Ba ba ba 😂😉
your track that you used to mention foreshadowing... fire. Do not trash that
Fr that shit was fire
Peanut butter without the bread low carb 😂
5:30 messed up while editing?
Yes
@@ZenWorld The video is great anyways so no one would mind.
Thanks bro just a skip I can't believe I missed that I hitbthebshrotcut key for adding a title
Lol the always-high-guys at 124 bpm
Dude the synth at 14:07 sounds massive, don't trash that banger.
How do you even achieve that lead? Is it FM synthesis? Fire my man 🔥
Saw and Sync distortion!!
@@ZenWorldtutooooriaaal
Don't trash the song it's dope!!!
06:10
bit of a editing misstake going on at 5:33 no?? :D
Yes haha
I thought I skimmed all of the video
Actually I've found you can never have too much peanut butter on the bread. I've tried, and it never happened.
If your track (13:42) drops, i'm doing whatever your Phase Plant preset is doing
Gu gu ga ga gu gu gu bam drop 😂
I dont like pre-drops most of the time. For me it kind of kills the vibe if not done exactly right at the perfect time. Especially when it's being overused it's just ugh in my opinion.
And can you not trash the track please? maybe it sounds cheesy to your genius ears but its actually catchy. don't trash it. but lay it on me is a really really good track. playing it back to back with "can I ask you" dope tracks brother. cant wait for more releases.
There are 2 things I hate about the music of today (hard-dance); piepkicks and fake drops!
Fat no for me with pre drops/ cool downs. Takes the energy out Imo.
Everything is more satisfying if it explodes after a build up
Although I agree with everything that zens says this song below goes against everything he says at 4:50

Yeah of course always the exceptions depends on the music you make.
there's no such thing as too much peanut butter
