Tech House

In this series of videos, we're going to be looking at all the melodic within the tech house subgenre. This one is a little different as we generally won't be concentrating on the bass. As the bass line in this genre is generally the main hook, this is where we will start and I'll be showing you not only how to make the bass line, but how to make the sound using X first classic VST serum.

test
Minimal House

This is where we get deep and start looking at all of the melodic content that you might find in a minimal house track. Starting from creating interesting, glitchy chord stabs to random arpeggios to question and answer style riffs.

test
Toolroom Techno

This is a particular genre of main room driving Tech House, which D.Ramirez has coined 'Toolroom Techno'. It’s not quite Techno but it’s certainly more driving than your typical Tech House track. In this series of videos, he will be showing you the techniques to create your compelling incessant driving stab riff, with a twist.

test
Disco House

During this chapter, Dean will be diving deep into the methods used to create the genre of Disco House. He will highlight how to find Disco samples and incorporate them seamlessly into your track giving you that iconic Disco House sound.

Progressive House

Progressive House is a genre filled with atmospheric pads, rich basses and synths that create a landscape like no other. Throughout these next lessons Dean will be covering all the methods used to create the melodic sounds within Progressive House

test
Piano House
