Making Dark Techno part 2



Hello people today i will be showing you how to make a dark techno riff. If you have not seen part 1 of how to make dark techno then go here I know its been 6 years since i made that dark trance tutorial but the same things apply in this techno tutorial but,what we will be doing different is using f-minor for that dark and erie sound.


 Lets make the sound 

You can use this sound sound for your main riff,a intro,a breakdown whatever so here goes.Like i said earlier this sound will focus on f minor.So the notes we will be using are F,G,A -flat,B flat,C and Dflat Without any hesitation watch the video below on my youtube.



 If you would rather not watch the video then read my instructions: Create a 303 arp Use only triads make sure the I chord is f-minor Then make sure you go in downward motion I hope you enjoyed my tutorial .

Dark Techno and House was one of my earlier influences before i got into trance


Dark Techno music besides trance is one of my favorites to produce. And has been one of my influences growing up in the 80s. As you know techno and dark techno are a derivative of house music and house music was very prevalent in the 80s and 90s . While Dark techno is not played on the radio as much these days it still is in the underground clubs.

 Do not forget to leave me some comments on some of your techno productions id love to hear them.

Using Phrygian mode to make Techno beats

You should be using  Phrygian mode to make your techno beats.   Hey people i have been seeing lots of newbies online make track after track in the same key. Same scale, same chord progression. You have to get out off that same old rut of doing things the same things all the time. After a while your music will be boring and pretty much lifeless.   So i made this video of me making a techno beat in phrygian mode to show you what you can do when you think outside the box. When you get away from the normal natural minor and natural major scales and reach outside the box you just may actually learn something, and most of all breathe new life into your music.   So watch the video below. Just keep in mind this riff i made for your viewing pleasure is only a 2 bar loop. i will be making a full on 32 bar loop to show you just what you can accomplish when you think outside the box. I know i sound like a robot, but when you think outside the box with your music you're music really comes alive

How to speed up your hip hop beatmaking workflow when you have no time to make beats

We all been there, we have a idea in our head of some beat we want to cook up, then the unthinkable happens. We run into our ex at the bank, the supermarket or Wendys drive thru then the two of you start talking for hours. Or better yet, your kid gets sick at school the nurse sends him home, your dog has an appointment at the vet. You need to help your son study for a math test...As soon as you walk into the studio your girl calls you up, and silly you answers the phone. You then are sitting in your own studio, instead of making beats you are talking on the phone. Before you know it you start falling asleep and no beats are made! You get the picture. This happens to all of us at one point or another in time. Some of us it happens on a more consistent basis. So that is why i made this video for you to help give you some insight as to what to do, when life sometimes gets in your way, and you are unable to make any beats. So follow my suggestions in the video and i hope you
