@groalerable
7 жыл бұрын
$600 is not exceptionally expensive for a 5 string bass. they could have spent thousands but it was still a hit, that's what they're saying. They also could have used a digital bass and it might have worked just as well. If you want to make music that captures this aura then cut up some soul samples and put 808s or sampled drums under them. That's all just blaze/kanye/the heatmakers did most of the early 2000s. Then maybe eventually you'll have the money or connections to use all the live instruments and musicians you want. I doubt they had all the equipment and connections they wanted when they first started. You gotta start somewhere

Honestly, I usually bash people for judging Chance's music only based on this one song they've heard, but it's a damn good hit single and a dope middle finger to them lame ass labels.
Man I'm MAD AF Andre couldn't make an appearance on this joint or CB in general. He was one of the first features that Chance announced for CB.

Listen for instance to the snare and hihats, the complete treble is fucked up, the percussions arent even audible, most of the middle part got lost. If you compare this to how acid rap was mastered you hear the difference. Coloring Book is a great, great album, but awfully mastered.

well, I did a comparison between each album, even with audio visualizations, for the funzies, and the mastering isn't really that different, especially taking into consideration instrumentation variation. again, for this track the vocals take precedence, and when comparing the dynamics of the melodic bits to the drums, it actually isn't too different from what's in this video. for instance, the tambourine shaker thing is only a bit quieter, but it's still completely audible, far off from not audible like you're saying.

I'm enjoying "The making of" series I feel like producers don't get enough credit. Plus this is super interesting since I have zero knowledge about any of this stuff
Does anyone else think that the production playing here is much clearer than the actual final mix of this song? To me, the final mix of "No Problem" is extremely murky.

shoutout my ableton users! Also that's nice to hear about plug-ins. makes me feel better haha
I've always thought of plugins as miniature music assistants. so if you have a network of people who can play instruments, help you mix tracks, solve musical issues for you etc, then plugins become less necessary. however I think for people who don't have that network, plugins are pretty important
No Problem will forever be my favorite song, I plan on showing it to my children.
Watching these beat production videos make me love and appreciate songs so much more
This is so inspirational, especially for aspiring producers.
Would love to see one of Lido's songs deconstructed!
Saw these dudes live in Columbus in 2016 opening for Jack Garratt, because I had been following them for awhile. Super stoked to see how they've grown into such respected producers, and for their own group's music as well. They were super chill dudes too. Love you guys!
