In this video I rapid-fire 47 music production tips that are all about getting better results without overcomplicating your process. I start with the most unhinged one: sampling literal silence, boosting it, and turning it into a sound. From there I get into practical stuff like making MIDI piano feel human (slightly offset notes, push bass velocities), adding foley and ambience for texture, and fixing 808s that aren’t hitting by pitching them into their “sweet spot” resonance range. I also cover arrangement and workflow hacks that save you from getting stuck: build a structure around an acapella, stop buying new plugins and learn your stock tools, save presets constantly, use a default template, and learn shortcuts so you don’t break your creative flow. On the sound design side, I’m big on layering, micro-sampling tiny slivers into new instruments, resampling and mangling your own loops, and turning short samples into pads by stretching + drowning them in reverb/delay. Mix-wise, I talk saturation for bass on small speakers, EQ as the real “loudness” cheat, bussing, high-passing your reverb, ghost notes for groove, and even sidechaining the whole beat (except kick/bass) for that wavy movement.
