Did you know bass sounds actually hack your brain? 🤔I deep dived into that rabbit hole in this video: https://youtu.be/iVxIX2dBbP4

With such content we have no any excuse for not making good music! Thank You!
-
You have a true gift for teaching...as a person who has taught at the Royal College of Music, any of the top institutions in the world would be lucky to have you
-
Alice, you're a real G! I don't even make techno but the way you touch different subjects is just too good! You explain the "Why" of things in a way that you can always get applicable knowledge to every single genre!
-
your tips are absolutely the best we have... there's so much content about music production on youtube, but the stuff you bring is really useful and works so much.💛much love Alice!
-
I am from Mexico City and I thank you very much for your videos. Your content has helped me a lot to be more careful with my productions, I have learned more with you than in my own school haha. Thanks for the video of how to make synthwabe from that moment I started to follow you in all your networks and keep watching your content. You are a very talented woman! Sorry for my English 😅
-
This is one of my favourite videos of yours so far. Getting so much value from this! Thank you.
-
Your videos are REALLY helpful! Thank you for taking the time to make them
-
Very useful tips! I tend to overuse silent drops to restart loops, so I will definitely try the other two methods.
-
I love how the thumbnail is like Hillier Smith's
-
Great tips, these help me and inspire me to go back into music with a fresh mind after watching. Thank you

Desde tus primeros videos me impresionaron tus conocimientos. Es increíble lo fácil que haces todo, la manera de explicarlo es muy buena y el resultado final fantástico. Hacía mucho tiempo que youtube no me volvía a recomendar un video tuyo. Hacía mucho tiempo que no te veía. Eres mágica y me alegro mucho por ti. Tienes un alma maravillosa, se ve sin conocerte. Mucho ánimo y a seguir así.
-
Just mindblowing. You are a sound wizard. Thanks for sharing!
-
This is so to the point, really clever presentation!
-
Voice leading in classical music is writing chords where the highest pitch notes lead into eachother, creating a melody on top over the chord progression. Think C Minor to Ab Major where the G of C Minor leads to the Ab, the root, of the next chord.
-
Thank you for making this video, it’s very helpful!
-
Excellent tips as always. You are the real deal. Thanks!
-
Nice one Alice 👌 ill have to go back and watch it again when i need inspiration
-
Best channel for music production BY FAR
