In this video, I show you how to make an Afrobeat x Afroswing bounce from scratch in FL Studio—Burna Boy / Pa Salieu / Jhus kind of vibe. I start by setting the tempo (Afroswing is usually around 96–105 BPM, sometimes up to 110), then I build a simple drum pattern first before I add variations. I also explain why your sound selection matters a lot for this style—if your kit doesn’t have that Afroswing feel, the beat won’t feel right. That’s why I’m using my Safi drum kit for the hard/punchy kick, rims (I like layering rims to make them heavier), percs, hats, and I show you how to fix common issues like loop points. From there, I move into chords and melodies using stock plugins (like Poison) and MIDI chords, because I like having ideas I can “mess with” instead of being stuck with a loop. I keep everything in key (D major here), use snap to scale, and I show you how I transpose vocal phrases and guitar loops to match the beat. I also process sounds early (EQ on kick/rims, chorus + reverb on guitar, saturation on sub/808) so the bounce feels right while producing. Finally, I arrange the track properly—intro, verse, pre-hook, hook, outro—and I share simple “cheat codes” like flipping your intro for the outro to make it sound like it’s dying out.
