How I Made a Song with Over 100 LAYERS (CAROUSEL) chords
Start Jamming...
Welcome.
You might notice I got a bit of [Ebm] a wider lens.
This [G] video's gonna be a little different.
I'm gonna [Eb] try to go in depth about how I made a [C] song
with over 100 layers.
[F] Keep falling, falling [Ab] like a sound on a break.

If [Eb] you're into the EDM world,
100 layers isn't that big of a deal
because a lot of electronic songs will surpass 100.
But if you're more on the [Cm] rap side,
yo, I'm not going out of the frame anymore.
This is [F] nice.
All right, so this [Ab] project I got open right now,
[F] as you can see, it only has 58,
but that's because I balanced all my vocals [G] together.
[Eb]
[Ab] [Eb]
Here's the [Bbm] kind of dumbed down [B] version.
So yeah, this [Eb] is my new song, Carousel.
There'll be links all over this [A] video
and throughout the whole [Eb] thing if you haven't heard it yet.
And if you haven't heard it yet,
I'll go check that out first and then come back to this.
[C] Or you can watch [Eb] this and then go listen to it
and then be more [F] appreciative.
[Eb] Up to you.
So I had this sample first.
[Bm]
[Em]
[C]
So I took [Bbm] this entire thing.
[Gb] I don't remember how [Eb] I chopped it up.
I have like over 13 versions of this song.
The original project was Little Girl.
Yeah, so I don't remember how I chopped it up, but I did.
And then I [Ab] came up with this.
[Eb]
[Ab] [G]
Took that, [C] reversed [Ab] it.
[F] [Db]
[Eb] That kind of ended up [Bbm] being the [A] foundation
for the entire song.
[C] Snare.
Another snare.
Hi-hat.
[N]
And a distant hi-hat.
So it sounds like this.
[Ab]
[Cm] [Dbm] I got that kick.
[Ab]
Open hi-hat.
[Bb]
And a chorus hi-hat.
[Ab]
[Eb]
[Ab] [Bbm] [Eb]
[Ab] And a chorus hi-hat.
I started adding like dark [Eb] pads
and I like these types [Ab] of sounds a lot.
[Eb] [G] [Ab] Got a ton of effects up [Eb] at the top
just to make it sound real.
So if you already heard this song,
you might notice that the bass is just
I actually layered the regular sub bass
with another sub bass on top of it.
That's [Gb] pitched up.
So let me show you what I mean.
[Ab] [Eb]
And then [Ab] I have the exact same thing.
But just pitched up.
[Eb]
[Db] And put them together.
[Ab] [Eb]
[G] [Eb]
Let's move on to the bridge.
[Bb] So I have this piano part
for like the [Ab] first half of the bridge.
[Eb] [Db]
Same drums.
Shout out to Matt.
He [A] played the keys on that piano.
[G] The last time, there's like [Am] a sound
that I can't even remember what [Ebm] I did to it,
but it's probably lost
in one of the old [F] versions of this song.
There's a pitched down [E] version
and there's a pitched up version.
I don't know.
It's really [G] weird.
And I didn't think I'd like it
until I put it in the song.
[Ebm]
[F] [C]
[Eb] [G] It's almost like a guitar to me,
[Eb] but it's not.
[Ab] [Cm] [Fm]
This [Ab] [Eb]
[Ab] is my [Gm] [Bb] voice.
[D] [Abm] And then just [Eb] some chords on an E [Ab] piano.

[Bb] [Ab] ♪ I'm your girl, [Eb] bring [Ab] fire from the sunshine [Eb]
♪ I'm lost on the [Ab] ground, [Eb] staying for the sun [Gb]
