Description: We’re thrilled to release our highly anticipated debut featuring Grammy Award-winning DJ, Producer and Sound Engineer Young Guru! This series of in-depth videos reveals key aspects of the production process and mixing technique with Jay-Z’s right-hand man, who has been called “the most successful engineer in hip-hop history” by the WSJ. The Young Guru explains how he searches for sounds, samples them from recordings and matches them to drum machines and controllers. He shares the details of how he created the loop that kicked off the process of creating an entire track for Voli Contra. Using Akai MPC and Ableton Push integrated with Live, he demonstrates a number of approaches and features that are required for his beat-making process. After a deep dive into an Ableton Live production session, Young Guru opens up a Pro Tools mixing session to show you how he tweaked the details to complete the recording!
