>Friend lets me hear a trap beat
>boring/10
>Bets me €100 I can't make a trap best from scratch within 2 days

I have 0 experience. Where do I start? Obviously I'm not allowed to copy a beat from a tutorial.

Any advice would be appreciated.
>>
you could probably buy a beat from someone and you would still profit
>>
I really, really, really like this image.
>>
>>70820446
Why? It looks like some plain image of a small neighborhood in Japan overlayed with a shitty filter.
>>
>>70820462
It just cracked me up.
>>
Download FL studio and a trap sample pack. Then just copy another beat, theyre generic enough that no one will notice.
>>
>>70820467
you can have it, it's all yours!
>>
>>70820467
I mean the image is fine but the filter is awful. Or is that a drawing? I can't tell.
>>
>>70820376
I'll make a trap beat for you anon
>>
>>70820376
you taking the piss mate? I know laptop producers get a lot of shit, but you can't seriously believe it's that fucking easy?
>>
>>70820517
Being this fucking retarded
>>
>>70820517
it's a meme you dip
>>
>>70820556
I admit I got a bit too cocky. But it should be possible, right? It doesn't have to sound like Metro Boomin.
>>
>>70820651
Well, it's a bad meme
>>
>>70820678
>But it should be possible, right?
if he wants you to do it from scratch
no

so yeah you lost 100 bucks
>>
You're gonna need an 808 kit. Record some kicks on that shit, snare on the 3rd beet, and hi hats at 16th notes, but blasted up to 32nds and 64ths sometimes.
>>
I'll give you trap beat for $49
>>
>>70820556
it is though
>>
Why the fuck would you call music that someone shows you boring? Especially when it's something they made themselves.

If they're showing it to you, they quite obviously care for you and respect you.

>>
>>70820642
How so?

>>70820651
Care to explain?
>>
>>70820787
I don't think it ever says OP's friend did the song tho
>>
>>70820798
just google : I really, really, really like this image.
>>
>>70820787
The reason he shows me his music is because I always give my honest opinion. I actually think most of his (house) music he is very cool, but this trap beat was generic as fuck. Big deal.
>>
>>70820817
Ah, okay. I saw that banana image before but never knew the meme.
>>
>>70820825
But

You don't even know how to make a beat. How're you going to call someone else's work shit
>>
>>70820829
I mean it's a /b/ meme so you're not missing out honestly
>>
>>70820699
On it, thanks.
>>
>take sample from popular song
>slow it down a bit
>add phaser and lowpass filter
>basic bass line
>reverb
>add random trap beat over
>???
>wew so innovative

Maybe you should reconsider your friendships if you're afraid to hurt their feelings when they ask your honest opinion. He genuinely appreciated the feedback, so what exactly is the problem?
>>
>>70820892
I'm asking how did you know the beat was generic? If you don't make beats, how do you know it sucked?
>>
>>70820846
are you 12
>>
>>70820905
What does one have to do with the other? I can't sing myself, so I can't recognize a terrible singer? Nice logic there.
>>
>>70820856
This gave me hope, ty anon.
>>
>>70820940
You know what I'm saying. Quit pretending to be retarded
>>
joy division sample?
>>
>>70820965
I really don't. Correct me if I'm wrong: you're basically saying I'm not qualified to call a beat 'generic' because I can't make one myself. I honestly don't see how that makes any sense. Following that logic, I'm equally unqualified to praise a beat, right?
>>
>someone make op a trap beat in fl studio
>send him the project files
>op pirates fl studio
>???
>profit
>>
>>70821052
Appreciate the idea, but I'm not trying to scam my friend. If I fail, I will pay him the money and I learned a valuable life lesson not to be a cocky retard.
>>
>>70821095
Well, get ready for a headache trying to learn a daw in 2 days. Possibly all for nothing
>>
>>70820997
yes
>>
>>70820376
hit him with a fucking hammer

takes me 6 hours to make a dance beat so


think of 16 bars long synthline, then build up bass or more synths to it, apply 4 snares then 8 snares, 16, 32 to make there a drop, apply fx elements, have shitloads of hihats and low bass in the drop with higher pitched snares and some ghetto vocal samples, as time goes by just add in elements with either immediate volume increase or steady progression

since you´re probably like what did he mean by this about the stuff above, just get fl studio demo, youtube fl studio tutorials and do the beat in one session. easy 100€

remember if i can do it, so can you
>>
>>70821022
Damn, you got me.
>>
Just find a trap song on youtube with little to no views and steal it's beat
>>
>>70821217
Out of curiosity, how long did it take for you to get on that level?
>>
>>70821219
It's all good.
