Join electronic production guru Larry Holcombe for a comprehensive video course on creating and producing tech house music! In this series, you’ll learn how to select and create the right instruments, work with samples and loops, add effects to build tension and add excitement, layer sounds for maximum impact, and much more. Larry even shows you how to mix and master the track at the end so that it’s ready to share with the world. If you’re a fan of Tech House, you don’t want to miss this! These videos are designed for fans of tech house and other house music. To get things started, Larry welcomes you to the course by playing through the track that he’ll be creating throughout it, so you’ll have a clear idea of what you’re working toward. Then it’s down to it, and Larry starts off by focusing on the kick sample, demonstrating a handy oscilloscope technique for analyzing the sample. This is followed by a clap to help thicken the backbeat and hats (open and closed) and a ride to throttle the beat’s top end.
