As my second commissioned tutorial, I was asked to make the beat for Alice Deejay – Better off Alone.
This is an ace track with some really nice synths that aren’t too hard to emulate. I have also written a bit extra in the tutorial text about how the epic outro is so epic as per my instructions
Check it out!

With the success of my making the beat episode for “I’m on a Boat” by The Lonely Island (It’s actually my most viewed page now!) I’ve had several requests to do other Lonely Island tracks – unusually enough, most for “We like Sportz”.
It’s a hilarious song, with one of the silliest sounding beats I can bring to mind, so I went ahead and made it.

How do you annoy Lady Gaga?
I thought I’d try doing a song in the charts that had some sweet synths in it – A bit of oscillator sync, mod bus routing with Thor and filter envelopes! All nicely summed up in under 10 minutes – what more could you want?
As usual, made with Reason 4.

I’ve been wanting to do this for ages and finally got the time. Check it out: Making Usher- Yeah in under 10 minutes (I love how much time Lil Jon spends on his productions xD)
