Writing Chill Hip Hop (Free Template)
Jul 30, 2021In this video I'm going to show you my creative process when writing a chill hip hop loop. I've been really enjoying digging into my good friend Steven Beddall's course on writing, producing, mixing, and mastering lo-fi hip hop, and it inspired me to write a track of my own. In this tutorial I'll be guiding you through how I come up with each musical part as well as how I tweak my sounds.
