Yo, it's Juicah There's an Emoji before each song to organize it's Genre. I'll break it down... 🔥- Trap music, bro. It's fire. 🦍- This beat is a West Coast vibe. You could call it "Gangster" but don't be a dork about it.

The beat I am sharing below is a "Type Beat". This beat is a twisted version or replica of a previous song I've heard. I've only been producing for a few months and I'm still experimenting to find my signature sound. The beat might not be your taste but please consider the following: "Issa type beat fam, if you don't like Playboi Carti you prolly not gon like it."

A typical beat would have an 4-8 bar Intro, 8 Bar Hook, 12-16 Bar Verse, 8 Bar Hook, 12-16 Bar Verse, 4-8 Bar Outro.
But you can mix it up however you want!!!

# data[].attributes.body
For the Verse, you might want to tone it back a little bit, you need to give the Artist some room to spit some fire. I recommend using your melody with no Counter Melody, and subtract some Percs or Hi-Hats just to make it less busy.

# data[].attributes.body
The Hook is your full beat playing. All tracks. I like to subtract the Kick for the first four bars, then bring it in for the last 8 just to add some bounce to it.

# data[].attributes.body
Pro Tip: Intros can be the full beat, but drowned in reverb, (this is what I did) they can be filtered, or even automated. (Rising in Velocity)

# data[].attributes.body
Creating an Intro is quite easy. All you have to do is play your main melody and maybe some small drums.

# data[].attributes.body
Okay, your beat is pretty much done, now you just need to arrange all the tracks around to make Verses, Hooks, Intros, and Outros.

# data[].attributes.body
Perc is just Percussion for short. Example of Percs could be, Rimshots, Clicks, Snaps, Snares, Bongos, Bells, Triangles, Open Hats, Chants, FX etc. These are used to add some sauce to your beat. It's getting hot in here! For this beat, I didn't use any drum percs, but I did use chants and FX...

Pro Tip: A Bass doesn't have to be an 808, it can be an actual bass! (Bass Guitar or Upright Bass) Here's and example on what that would sound like.

You can do whatever you want with your 808's/Bass. Typically, you would use the 808's and follow your root notes of the melody. (See how the Bass Line matches the pattern of the Melody?) You can also use kicks whenever you want, but specifically for certain tracks, I would want to make my 808's pop, so I would make the kicks the same pattern as the 808's for some extra heat!

# data[].attributes.body
Oh man, the Bass and Kicks... The most commonly used Bass is the 808. There are hundreds of different 808's and Kicks. It's all preference at this point. This is where the beat starts to SLAP!

# data[].attributes.body
Pro Tip: Hi-Hat rolls are small Hi-Hats that sound like "Krrrrrr". They can vary in pitch or velocity! You can hear them in the video above...

# data[].attributes.body
Here is a good example of what a Triple Hi-Hats pattern would sound like...

Hi-Hats!!! Hi-Hats make the beat more busy. Hi-Hats dictate how fast the flow should be, even at a slow tempo. Some songs use many Hi-Hats and some don't use any at all! There are many types of ways to use Hi-Hats. You can do a two step (see below), four step (avoid), triplet, or your own diverse combos!

Every beat has a melody. Whether it's one key, or a whole orchestra of Chords (Harmonized Keys). A melody is the most important part of the beat when it comes to individuality. No one wants a beat that sounds the same! Using Major Chords to Minor Chords to creating different types of Chords, it's all part of the process.

# data[].attributes.body
A good tempo is a must have. Your tempo is your BPM (Beats Per Minute). My BPM in this beat is 118! If your beat is at a low BPM (60-80), but it's still fast, your'e probably working in Double Time (75BPM = 150BPM), which is totally okay!

# data[].attributes.body
Claps and Snares are the staple drum in a beat. This drum executes tempo. Without this drum, the song wouldn't have great tempo, it would also just sound weird...

# data[].attributes.body
Now we need rhythm... Claps and snares are usually the easiest to input. Claps are the staple drum because without them, the beat would have no rhythm and it would sound weird... Snares are the same things as claps, just a different instrument.

# data[].attributes.body
Pro Tip: Counter Melodies don't have be altered copies of your Melody, Counter Melodies can be so many things, such as top layer notes, you can hear the little piano Counter Melody in the beat below!

# data[].attributes.body
I just posted a picture of one of my beats. The piece called Endless Beauty is a Pad (A type of instrument/sound). My Counter Melody is just the same keys, but a different instrument at a different pitch. The Hollywood Strings  and Star Dust Arp are both Counter Melodies. This will make your beat less boring!

# data[].attributes.body
Nice! Now you have a catchy Melody! But wouldn't it be boring if it was the same melody looped over and over again? I think it would... so let's create a Counter Melody!

# data[].attributes.body
There is an infinite selection of sounds (I'm not kidding), and whatever sound you choose can be used in an infinite amount of ways. Pianos, Arpeggios, Strings, Woodwinds, Brass, Synth, Leads, Pads, Bass, etc... so many to choose from!

# data[].attributes.body
Sound selection correlates to the Melody. The Sound/Instrument you use for your melody can make-or-break your song! Choose wisely!
