I’ve been wanting to put together a boyinaband community for a while now and I figured a good way to keep it updated was with regular video blogs! Hopefully that can get people involved more with comments and suggestions
Be sure to head over to the youtube page and leave a comment (if you leave on on here *and* on there I’ll be more likely to do the tutorial you suggest!)

“I remember” caspa Remix by deadmau5…also when you do your 7 day tutorials, can you emphasize a lot on theory, I think that is something that gets left out a lot, I am a theorist myself and I would like to know how you go about in writing your melodies and progressions. Thanks
Wow! Another frakin coincidence. Rusko’s little tutorial on youtube was the basis for the “drop” in that track I sent you on twitter

You’re doing a damn fine job with this series man.
Your tutorials are fantastic. I’d love to see something that uses live instruments in conjunction with synthesized sounds. Also some retro sounds would be good… I smell an italo disco comeback around the corner.
I love the idea of, at the end of the week lets all post our created songs as a response to yours. <3 babycakes
Electro is pretty gay haha
Elliot- if youre a theorist, I dont get what you dont understand about simple I IV V progressions (or any other common progs) and making melodies inside the key.. If youre already familiar with this than coming up with them is just your feelings being expressed and coming out in a way you want them through the music.
Dave- you never mention a pretty big upcoming genre here in new york city, Tech House (7 DAY song idea). Its based on minimal and techy sounds but also has some soul or groove to it. Check it out!
