Music producer Oak Felder’s guide to producing a viral song

In just 15 minutes, music producer and songwriter Oak Felder demonstrated how a hit song gets from nothing more than an idea to a multi-layered sound experience.
Onstage from Recode's Code Media conference, Felder recreated the technical process of how he produced the hit Demi Lovato single “Sorry Not Sorry.” Starting from a blank canvas in the music production app Logic Pro X, he said his first job was to create a “vibe” before the songwriting process could begin.
“The people in the room are looking at you for the initial spark of inspiration,” he said. “You are the catalyst, you are starting everything up.”
You can watch the full presentation from Recode’s Code Media stage.

If you look at this craft as such, that without knowing someone who's notable already you can't make a hit.. You're only holding yourself back man. You could have the next Demi, Usher or Alicia right beside you just trying to have fun making music and be a completely huge part of that creation. That's the beauty of this art, my friend.

    Awesome video! The beat is very simple yet so impactful. This goes to show that if you know what you're doing, you can turn any simple melody into a hit song if you just do it right. Especially if you've got a strong vocalist/lyricist on board. Do what you love and have fun doing it, pour your thoughts and feelings into it; if it's true to you then it's bound to go somewhere.

    He's real Record Producer not a beat maker. A real Producer collaborates with the Artist and Engineer in the studio that oversees the entire creative direction of the finished product from A to Z like Quincy Jones. That's why Oak Felder carries the Job tittle Songwriter/Producer because he's wearing two hats as the Composer that composes the beat and Record Producer role when he's collabratiing with the Vocalist in the studio or where ever the recording sessions are conducted at.

    What changes everything is the vocal. Most of us come up with production ready backing tracks "concepts" easily these days.. the clincher is the melody that envelopes the track, the power of the vocal and the quality of it.

    It's quite possible that it's not a preset and it's a sound that he designed. Or it's a pluck sound or a sound from a bank that's not in the factory bank, but a third party bank. But just hearing the sound, I already know how to recreate the sound. It's a plucky triangle square with a low pass cut off with some extra voices slightly detuned while an LFO set to the pitch. lol
