In this video, I walk you through my full process for generating dancefloor-ready DnB ideas, starting from an 8-bar loop and expanding it into a full 16- or 32-bar section with energy and variation.
🎛️ What You'll Learn:
• How to build a solid 16-bar loop using a melodic bassline and pre-made drums
• Using Splice to spark ideas — from loops to MIDI file generation
• Ableton techniques for converting melody to MIDI, quantizing, and stretching notes
• Loop expansion with the A-B-A-C structure and E minor scale tools
• Creating variation without starting from scratch (changing sounds vs changing notes)
• Tips for keeping your loops fresh with macros, automation, and Amen breaks
