_ [Ab] _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[Fm] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ [Fm] _ _ [Db] Hey guys, so I see a [Ab] lot of you asked me to [Eb] do more videos for my [Db] studio when I make music.
[Ab] So I thought I could show you guys how I made [Fm] the drop for [Dbm] Higher Love.
So [N] obviously I got sent this vocal _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _
[D] _ _ from Whitney Houston, which sounds amazing.
So the [Eb] first thing I did was just [Gb] to find the chords.
[Db] _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ [F] _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ [Fm] _ _ [E] Then I added some drums, just like in [Eb] part here.
_ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Fm] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ [Db] _ [Ab] _
_ _ [Eb] _ So that goes [Abm] _
underneath.
_ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Fm] _ And [N] then what I did was just to chop up the vocal from Whitney.
_ So I have it.
You can probably find tutorials online on how to do that.
_ And I just _ make it a sample instrument where I have
_ [Cm] _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ [N] So I can just jam with the different vocal chops.
So I was jamming just on top of these [Db] chords for a while.
[Ab] _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ Then [F] after a while I came up with
There.
[Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _
I [Db] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Fm] _ _ [Db] _ [E] found that was the catchiest kind of vocal chop I could come up with.
The drums [Ab] is coming in here as well.
[Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Cm] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ [Gb] And then on the drop I have this piano, which is probably the most
_ prominent in the track.
It plays like [Db] this. _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [Db] Same samples. _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ _
_ [N] And then I add, this is like five different synths [Db] and pianos.
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Db] _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Db] _
_ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] _ _
[Ab] _ _ [Db] There's a lot of _ [Eb] synths on top of each other, which sounds like [Db] this.
_ [Ab] _ _ _
_ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] _ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _ _ [N] A lot of, you know, hi-hats, kick drums, snare, everything. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] _ _ [F] _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Bb] _ [N] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] _ _ [Fm] _ [Db] So, you hear it?
