I know about Ishkur's guide to electronic music, but I was wondering if there was something similair (albeit much less comprehensive of course) that focused on making different genres of music. You know, something that gives examples of the samples, synth patches, drum patterns, bpms etc. of different genres. Anyone know of any good sites like this (even if they only cover one genre, e.g. "How to make your own house music")? |

future music used to have some tutorials... not very good IMO. |

future music seemed to have a large share of hiphop producers, all the tuts were about that kinda music like 'how to make you bass "thump"' |

The emails I get from usually have some sort of tutorial in them and they're very good for hip hop (their samples are very, very good too). |

BTW Ishkur's guide is talking bullshit when it comes to house music me thinks. |

Not just house music, he's way off the mark on several genres... |

...but looking at his site, he's bang on the money about Elitism: Am I elitist? If it's elitist to appreciate and champion productivity, integrity, professionalism, worth and value, then damn straight I'm elitist. If it's elitist to expect the most out of people, to not suffer bullshit lightly, to promote and support quality worksmanship, to enjoy getting things done and to laud the people who can do things cleanly and perfectly with no problems, then I wish we had more of them around. You want to call someone elitist like it's a derogatory insult, but truth be known being an elitist is a good thing. It means you request the best in yourself and the best in others. That you don't accept a shoddy effort, sloven inefficiency, or drab incompetence. That you fight the movement to water down your fun, and that you refuse to accept an existence that bores the living fuck out of you. The elitists of this world are the tent poles of progress, propping up achievement and pushing the arts, sciences, culture, music, and the human condition to forever best itself in all avenues of creativity. Without elitists, the tent falls, flattened into the ground of ridiculously tepid, safe, boring mediocrity. It's the elitists who express early desires for higher standards in every capacity of life. It's the elitists who put every interesting genre of music you've ever heard on the map, who've established every untouchable sports record, who write books that continue to sell long after the author is dead, who've put men on the moon, cars on the roads, and your computer in front of you. Without elitists, everything that's wrong and inane with life will run unchecked. Without elitists, we, as an interesting species, are truly fucked. Call me an elitist all you want, and if that's the case, then so be it. But let me honestly ask you: What's so wrong with being elitist? Cuntychuck: Yes, it could be quite an interesting project; people could UL samples/loops, synth patches, soundfonts, etc. |

I was thinking of doing a kinda Word Document book, but scrapped it cos I was crap at doing all the styles I needed to cover. |

I think the best method is simply to listen to a song you like and try and copy it. |

I know it's far-fetched and most of you wouldn't do it (or would you?) but I am going to be taking an internship study at a recording studio here so I can learn more. I think I would really benefit from it. |
