Part 2 of 28 Loose Ends Single Series: Beat Pre-Production
The Making Of The Beat
Beat Construction
Bpm 119
Breeze set the bpm to what the bar count that was in my mind to make the beat and song.
Scale
The scale used to construct the song is the A-Minor scale. Most chords and melodies are used on that scale except in some spot to create tension to the sound.
Pre-Production
After choosing every sound, Breeze make sure to adjust the level of the sound itself before adjusting it with the mixer so that, if the sound is peaking within the sound itself will come out a cleaner mix in it’s own space due to not having to lower the sound in the mixer with a bad signal. It’s better to turn up a sound that’s lower than turn it down because it’s the way too high and Breeze put every sound in the same root key.
