thank you guys …really cool!!!
Excellent breakdown. For years I have always admired German producers. It’s refreshing to see pros like Jerome share their techniques to inspire others whose ideas are trapped inside their minds that need to be expressed. An amazing track hands down all the way around and one of my favorites. Jerome may not go into all the details like what key the track is in or chord arrangement, music theory, etc. He’s been doing this for 20 years now so if I’m thinking like a German I would be saying “What? You don’t know this???”
In all seriousness guys on this level and who are on TOP don’t need to share ALL of their trade secrets. What Jerome shared should be enough to get guys inspired to express their own ideas and combine that with other producers who inspire them. Just my two cents…
Thank you so much Sonic Academy. We need more “how to videos” like this. Maybe Patrice Baumel’s “The Vanishing” or Jeremy Olander’s “Panorama” or Quivver’s “Subconscious” . Good luck getting him though. Doubt Quivver will be sharing anything. LOL!
great tutorial. would have liked to see how he did that trick at 2:14 on the single. the track seemed to come out of sync. pretty cool. anyway, great tutorial!!!
I agree JasonMyersRVA
Does anyknow knows how to make such Alastor chords?
Hey @Thak
Video N° 7 ( Strings ) is done by Alastor himself and his showing a bit of the techniques used to get those chords. It’s start from a “belilsh /rodhy” synth chords progression with quite a drastic effect process with heavy used of reverb on the original sound.
In the resources files available for download, you’ll also find Alastor’s Pad & String audio files. It could help to isolate those in order to deconstruct them better but IMO, in this case, next to the notes & chord progression themselves, I think that the end result highly depends on the reverb and effect chain used on the audio.
Hope that helps
Amazing tutorial, Love Jerome and how easy makes every construction
