In today’s video, I bring you through my process of developing a beat or loop into a full song using the Elektron Digitakt and Digitone. Here's the song, for reference:    • Ambient Digitakt & Digitone Beat // a...  

It’s really quite easy to get stuck in the habit of creating loops, or short beats, without taking them to the next level. A big part of that is the immediacy and limitless options included within most modern music hardware and software. But, with a little bit of focus on honing your craft (and hopefully implementing some of these methods), you’ll be able to progress your favorite beats into fully actualized tunes!

0:00 Intro
0:58 A very important question
2:02 Analyze your process
3:20 Develop an alternate progression
4:35 Build up your beat
7:14 Adding bass and melody
9:10 Be aware of intention/structure
11:27 Opening it all up
14:17 Advice, practicing, and outro
