Description: Sonic Academy proudly welcomes new tutor Aaron Dawson, one half of Crystal Skies, who shares his insights on how to create future-ready chills.
Crystal Skies have collaborated with mega-producers like Seven Lions and Au5, and have also remixed Slander, Above and Beyond, and Illenium—these guys are in the big leagues when it comes to production, and here we see Aaron build this epic track from scratch.
Starting with a beautiful chord progression, we layer synths and instruments onto the resulting “wall of sound.” Using extensive resampling and audio editing techniques, there are tons of helpful tips here, from creating and crafting all-important fills to seamless transitions between sections. Aaron also limits the use of third-party plugins in this course, proving that with just a few instruments, choosing the right sounds, and harnessing the power of your DAW, you can also achieve amazing results!
