Song Demo: Lemme Tell U v1

Here's my original vibe demo for lemme tell u. I kinda like the raggaeton beat to be honest!

Song Demo: Lemme Tell U v2

Hey Patron gang,


Made this demo a while back during my peak of mumbling lyrics lol - really liked the melody and vibe but could never figure out lyrics that worked, so it never became anything. Alex even did some preliminary production on it. Also gonna post my original demo I made for it. right after this, so you can hear what it sounded like when I recorded it.

EXTENDED FEEDBACK:We wrote the most satisfying songs of all time

Hey! 

Unfortunately we can't keep everything for the main video, but that's why Patreon is so perfect for us to upload extended material, just like this one! ๐Ÿ˜„

This matchup wasn't even fair!! (Pop vs Rock #2)

Hey Patrons! 

This was a good matchup in my opinion but as one of the bands are Chance's all time favorites, it didn't really make it a fair fight. At least not for him :')

Who was your favorite? 

Also, **warning for flashing light** during the first song.

Thanks for Bday wishes! + detailed plans

Hey guys,

Thanks so much for the love on my birthday! I had an excellent time, went down to San Diego with some friends and relaxed for a bit. Back at it now to work on stuff for you guys!


We've got a few projects in the works:

- I'm of course working on "Selfish" (It's been going on for a WHILE now huh, sometimes these things just take time I guess, especially when you're really trying to make something next level good)

- Storytime video with Jonas & Au...

This MASHUP is GREAT! (Songs That Shouldn't Work Together But Do #7)

Hey big P's!

OKAY, first off.. I didn't mean to say "songs that sound the same"...
Let's blame it on me being tired and move on?

In this video, I got to nerd out a bit and flex my advanced, superior, and amazing music knowledge to Chance.. No biggie..

Also, what did you think of this mashed-up song? I really liked it! It was very chill and the two songs worked GREAT together!

What's going on

Hey gang,

Text post update - we're almost ready to post the first episode of our new songwriting series! I'm really excited about this one, keep in mind it's just a first iteration and we've already found things to improve, but I'm proud of it and think it's the best video we've made in quite some time! 

It's gonna be featuring me, Jonas & August, and in the future we will have different guests on. It's a very engaging format, look out for a thumbnail that's gonna look a ...

Sneak Peek: Chariot

Working on a song on a certain theme (secret!) and as part of it we are reacreating some parts of songs. Here's my recreation of the chorus of Gavin Degraw's "Chariot". It's crazy how something like this can be recreated so closely just in the computer now, you don't really have to record anything if you know what you're doing, while back when it came out they needed to work in studios and spend a lot of time on having session musicians etc. It's sad in a way, but it's also cool to see how fa...

Production update/comparison: "So Selfish"

Hey gang,

Decided I really like the topline "so selfish" I posted here a while back, so I started producing it more properly. Have a listen to the old version vs the new one (second half of this audio file. Quite a difference huh :P

Gonna be re-recording vocals and changing some melodies and stuff, adding more stuff etc. Excited about this one!

"Extra Super Talent" (Talented vs Untalented)

Sup' gang!

Here's another really good matchup! 


This one sure was a hard one. You thought the first one would take the cake.
But we had to make a new category for the second performer called "extra super talent" (EST for short) because it was so gosh darn beautiful!

Rapping "Classic" by MKTO (Songs that had a HUGE impact on me)

Wazzup gang!

I read a lot about you guys wanting more clips of me singing so here's.... me rapping.
I never really get the chance to to rap this so I felt that I had to take the opportunity!!


What are some songs that had a huge impact on you?

Sound Doodle: What happened here

Hey gang,

It's the weekend and I spend the day making a sound doodle again lol. Im getting back into producing the music myself, so these are really helping me experiment with sounds and how to make things sound good. The lyrics don't mean anything lmao, I just thought it could be fun to share with you guys.

Let me know what you think! I think the mix in particular ended up pretty good on this one, for just being a quick thrown together thing. 

I would write the lyrics ...

This MIGHT Be The BEST Eurovision Song Ever?! (ESC vs Top Selling)

Here is another Eurovision vs Top Selling song JUST FOR YOU!

Sound Doodle: "Photograph"

Messed around with an 80s sounding waltz with loads of guitars today, in my quest for finding new sounds and improving my production workflow. Again, thought I'd post it here! Hope you like.

For the nerds: Been trying out using delays to widen things like hihats (with a spread of like 5-6 milliseconds). Working with more gated 80s reverbs, and parallell-saturating drums to make them sound more broken and alive. The bass is from a Juno 60 emulation, really love the sound of the Juno synt...

"Sound Doodle": Man In The Mirror

Sometimes I sit down and just look for fun sounds in synths to save for later and experiment with different soundscapes. This session was one of those, just looking for different types of sounds/grooves and messing around. I didn't know what to sing on top so I sang "Man In The Mirror" lmao. Hope you guys enjoy, nothing super interesting but hopefully still fun to listen to.

Hi. Important stuff.

Hey gang! Thereโ€™s a trickle of some old style videos comin in, but we are moving into a *slightly* more time intensive production method starting this week. Videos will likely not be daily. We will be doing more stuff with green screen. We will be relying less on reaction videos (though they are still part of the mix). Basically, more thought through content that looks better and is more original. My friends and team members will play a bigger role. It was time to step up, as when I started...

The difference between "Stay" and "Heat Waves"

Hey hey hey my big P's!

In this exclusive Patreon video, we're going through the difference between Stay by Bieber and Kid Laroy and Heat Waves by Glass Animal, there are some interesting similarities there. 

I also tortured Daniel by showing all the times they use the 3 note chord progression.
Some would say it is as bad as the Chinese water torture..!

Which song out of these top 5 is your favorite and why?
