How To Make A K-Pop Song (NCT 127, BTS, EXO, Lisa, MONSTA X) | Make Pop Music

In this video, Austin shows you how to produce a K-Pop song in the style of artists like NCT 127, BTS, EXO, Lisa, MONSTA X, and more! Austin focuses on creating an instrumental that elements from hip hop and electronic music to create a hard hitting track, and then fills it in with melodies that are common within the realm of K-Pop. Austin also focuses on creating different vignettes within the song to give each section it's own melodic and rhythmic structure, just like many K-Pop songs. We also have a couple exciting announcements, including the release of our brand new Vital preset pack, Synergy, and the launch of our annual Spring Sale on our website!
