Course description

This week Geoff, aka Bluffmunkey, is back with a different take on our usual 'How To Make' courses. This time he's aiming for a certain style, referencing the awesome Melodic Techno Afterlife label and building a track in a genre that he hasn't attempted before - so, in effect we're learning at the same time as him.

Starting with a set of reference tracks form artists such as Yotto, Colyn and Stephan Jolk, we try and find out the common themes and layout with this style before going through each of the different elements in-depth of Bluffmunkey's track. From beat creation, sound design, arrangement, effects and mastering, we check out how close he gets to the Afterlife sound.

What do you think? We reckon he nails it, so check it out!
