How To Make West Coast Hip Hop/R&B (Blxst, Ty Dolla $ign, Marc E. Bassy, RILEY) | Make Pop Music
In this video, Austin goes through the process of producing an upbeat, west coast R&B / Hip Hop / Pop track, similar to artists such as Blxst, Ty Dolla $ign, etc. This video breaks down the full production of the song, Prada Me, by Riley and Marc E. Bassy. Dive into the process of programming bouncing drums, laying down smooth bass-lines, and layering subtle elements to fill out a track without cluttering the main melodic elements.
