The second DVD on writing and producing dance music.

This course focuses on writing, engineering and producing a trance track.

 

Starting with a blank sequencer, the 3 hour video course is designed to be used in conjunction with the Dance Music Manual (first or second edition) and follows Phiadra through the construction and programming of the trance track "Sunset". It shows how the theory of the book can be applied into practice.

The recording software was left running throughout the entire construction and production of the track and was later edited down to the most pertinant points filling three hours to fit onto the DVD.

 

Split into easy to understand sessions, the DVD covers the construction and production used to create Sunset including the inital starting point of getting the ideas down, through to how to approach the synth programming, application of effects, processing and finally arrangement to create the complete track.

The DVD chapter list consists of:

1. Ideas
2. Drums
3. Bass
4. The lead
5. Chords
6. The Riffs
7. The Main Lead
8. The Motifs

Reviews:

"this trance dvd is awesome. as they mention there are lots of ways to work. however there are tips and things in here that just made the light bulb turn on for me. I am soo excited to have this dvd and will be watching it several times over. I also now want to go back and reread many parts of the DMP and cant wait for any other dvd's to come out."

--------------------

"After watching this its shown me that I have been spending far too much time on the wrong things altogether rather than concentrating on where the real magic lies. I've been following the advice of the DVD since I received it and it has helped with my productions immeasurably so thank you once again"

--------------------

"I have enjoyed seeing how someone works, and think the DVD is a very useful resource, and I have already picked up a few things I had not considered, but most of all, it has provided me with a renewed motivation to try and better my production and put the hours in."
