How newbies can learn to arrange trance
You know what I have been on some of the edm forums lately and I noticed a lot of newbies still do not know how to arrange or dont know where to start or to go about arranging there first trance track.
So that is when I decided to post this article and a video about just that. Arranging your first trance track.
We all been there
The fact is we all been there at some point in time when we did not know what to do in our producing years whether it was making a lead sound,getting that sidechain to sound right or getting the bass to be funky or getting your drum loops to sound real. You know we all been there some point in our careers and we did what we had to to get by.
So thats where I come in. I want to be your go to guy if you need any questions regarding edm trance or techno. Recording or arranging sequencing ! You name it if theres something you have question about just leave it in comment section. As I enjoy making music and like to help others as if I was struggling id like for someone to help me out after all we all been there at some point.
The video
Okay here is a video I put up on my youtube . I just started this channel recently dont really have any subscribers so knock yourself out and be the first to subscribe so youll know of any edm related videos that may interest you. And of course spread the word about my channel to other friends in the edm world.
Back to the video,I know sometimes I can ramble off on stuff at times.
The video is short and it is showing you how to and where to put your elements in the arrange pane.Then you just go back and put record your sounds and your elements in . It really is that simple I would not use this same concept to steal someones arrangement I would just use it in your home studio. Or your studio to practice arranging only.
Do the unexpected
What makes great music is not stealing someones arrangement ,in fact what makes great trance music is when you can be unique and do things unexpected.
Instead of starting your track with a kick then high hat then percussion then bass.Start your track with some string pads and some fx. Instead of starting your track with the same boring intro start your track full on with everything but the listener thinks its everything but you then decide to fool the listener and bring the real song in later in the song again something unexpected. Instead of using the same boring bass drum make your own sounding bass drum in reaktor you get the point so be unique and use your creative juices they wont fail you ever!
