Producing EDM with TikTok, AI, & Music Samples [TUTORIAL]

A recent study conducted by the IMS business report concluded that EDM (electronic dance music) is one of the top three most listened-to music genres on the planet, more popular that r’n’b, rap, and even hip hop.

There isn’t a club or music festival in the world that won’t heavily rely on EDM, and there’s one single reason for that, it’s because EDM is the most danceable genre in the history of music, and as a result, it’s constantly in demand.. and that’s where you come in.

This class is the most practical EDM class you’ll ever take because it focuses on producing EDM quickly and relying on samples. All great EDM tracks are built heavily on samples because they allow you to rely on and play with memes that people already know and love. Is there a TikTok making the rounds and getting millions of views and shares everyday? Simply work it into your next set and you’ll be the talk of the town!

In today’s class we’re working with samples from TikTok, an AI generator, and a music sample site called Cymatics. To take part you’ll need a DAW (software for producing music) and it’s suggested that you download some of the plugins I use during the class. This includes Valhalla Supermassive, FlexBeat, Ozone 9, and Clarity Vx DeReverb by Waves. These aren’t a must but can help a lot in producing music quickly.

So let’s get started making a track quickly and effectively, then let’s get on the dance floor!
