How to Arrange A Pop Song From Start to Finish! (NO MORE UNFINISHED DEMOS!) | Make Pop Music

Музыка

In this video, Austin goes through the steps of arranging a pop song! Austin covers how to add, take away, and tweak elements throughout a song to give the song dynamics, structure, and separate but cohesive pockets of music! Watch as we deconstruct an entire production and highlight all of the arrangement decisions and techniques used!

    The Weird Pad is such a cool, functional idea. It kind of acts in the same way as a lap/pedal steel guitar in a pop country track, adding a big epic airy sky feel to the chorus.

    @@NipapornP Do you not have something better to do? Or do you actually take pride in sitting on your computer and arguing the smallest things that no one cares about? Because that's something I wouldn't even tell my friends I do. "Hey guys, I like spending my time trying to make useless arguments on KZread!" Is this you? Is this who you want to be known as? I might have stumbled across the wrong words in my comment, but honestly, it could really matter less if I actually have a semi-successful channel and make money doing what I love. What do you do? It's unclear. You might be a prodigy in swimming, a world class chess player, but honestly... from your quite useless and arrogant argument, I would assume that you sit down and hope for responses from your useless "points" you try and argue while in you sit in school (if you even attend) and pretend like you try just to compensate for your very little thinking capability. To try and put this aside, I hope you re-think your choices, and before you post some low-class, anti-intelligent "refute," think about what that comment will make you. You might feel glad or happy in the moment, but from what you just commented, you just labeled yourself a designated fatass. So enjoy it, loser.🫡

    It was using a preset in Guitar Rig 5 (under the ambient tab, can’t remember the exact one). And the chords were just chords played higher up to give some dimension to the low palm mutes underneath. Don’t know the exact chords / voicing we picked.
