    ๐Ÿ˜… I asked for a video on how you make your demo songs like a month and a half ago maybe? Am going to save this video for reference , thanks ๐Ÿ‘
  • @nicolasaraistrujak208
    Slaughter of the soul is such cool album, the sweatshirt that makes your "soul go cold, only the dead are smiling"
  • @modernmetalsongwriter
    ๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ”ฅ Thanks for being down to do a more experimental video showing off your process man! Hope this helps a lot of people!
  • @WesleyKhalil
    Bruh, your video convinced me to buy a audio interface and do my own riffing, thanks man! I really like the message to not be too hard on yourself, and let the creativity flow.
  • @mofongotron
    Dude HELL yes. My biggest weakness is that I'm good at writing riffs, but TERRIBLE at writing songs. I'm almost scared to even try putting ideas down in a DAW, but I need to get over that and learn how to actually write songs. This video was incredibly helpful!
  • @bsadistik4421
    As a complete ignorant in music theory and with very bad hearing skills as far as learn song by ear is concerned, the harmonies in third tip is fucking awesome! Thank you!
  • @CrushingAxes
    Man I love Reaper so much, it's perfect for me, you change skins and pretty much everything about it, routing is easy, sidechain super easy! Just perfect!
  • @brandongray6652
    I love how easy you went about this. Writing death metal is already a difficult process as is to perform let alone recording it, but you did it with a that gave it legs with a very productive & repeatable process. More people could see this ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ
  • @broncoxy
    That was actually really helpful, thanks man! As I'm trying to start actually writing songs, not just riffs, I struggle lots with coordination and structure, but watching you doing it, was very inspiring!
  • @sega.milkis
    Great result and overall tone! Thanks, Taylor! ๐Ÿค˜
  • @ChrisYid
    Absolutely awesome and exactly what I needed to improve my work flow.. got abit lost in the mixing stage but yeah getting ideas out and flow... 2nd to none!! Thank you for making this video!!๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿป
  • @Just_JoshE
    Bro, this was crazy helpful and really plainly stated. A lot of channels tend to speak over the viewers head and makes it hard to figure out what they're doing and why, but this was about as plain as it could be.
  • Man, this is exactly how I write. Thank you for this video. It really made me feel more secure about how to write and it made my day. So thank you :D
  • @timokomulainen
    Wow, that was so cool to see as a fellow songwriter. Man, I might borrow some of your ideas into my workflow!
  • @orionparsons7631
    Thank you so much for wearing that at the gates shirt I've been trying to find their music again for such a long time
  • @bolillo5013
    Thanks for the tips, I mainly play core stuff but I still found some of the general advice helpful.
  • @parkeramos613
    Learned more from this video than 2 months of fiddling with reaper on my own ๐Ÿค˜. Digging into drum synths next. Bought Glenn Fricker's Extinction Level Event. Pretty excited to try it.
  • @wheresallthezombies
    Yes! I love videos like this. Iโ€™m writing a post rock album at the moment and this is very helpful.
