The video starts with the artist in their home studio, introducing a future wave remix of the song "Titanium" they made with their friend Morton. They emphasize creating a simplified version using basic tools in Ableton Live and creating synth sounds from scratch.
They mention analyzing the key and tempo of the acapella using Mixing Key, with the key being C minor and the tempo at 126 BPM.
They then focus on creating a dreamy atmosphere for future wave, adding reverb and delay to the vocals. They use a vocal sample to create a trippy effect.
They explain that future wave often involves simple chord changes and melodies, often with a single note that creates tension. They use a sample to create a pad-like sound.
They demonstrate how to create a chord progression, explaining the concept of chords, inversions, and emotional impact. They create chord progressions for different sections of the track.
They move on to the build-up section, adding impactful elements like a kick drum and sound effects to signal the transition to the next part of the song.
Finally, they work on the melody, creating a rhythmic foundation and then adding variations to make it more interesting.
Overall, the video covers the artist's creative process in producing a future wave remix of "Titanium," including key production techniques and musical insights.

2. The remix is a simplified version, not using any expensive plugins, and is created using basic synth sounds. [Source: Document(page_content="00:00:22.96: but i thought that today it would be\n00:00:24.80: cool to make a simplified version not\n00:00:28.16: using any expensive plugin and just all\n00:00:31.04: the basic stuff that you can find in\n00:00:33.68: evilton i'm also gonna create each synth\n00:00:36.56: sound from scratch")]

4. The speaker is creating a dreamy feel in the remix by adding reverb and delays to the acapella. [Source: Document(page_content="00:01:10.88: i'm gonna add some reverb and some\n00:01:13.52: delays\n00:01:14.76: to make it a little trippy let's start\n00:01:17.28: with a reverb i'm gonna use only\n00:01:19.60: stuff from ableton")]
5. The speaker is using a sample of a sound to create a loop and almost a pad out of it. [Source: Document(page_content="00:01:38.48: so now i have a loop\n00:01:40.32: i need to almost create a pad out of\n00:01:42.84: this")]
6. The speaker is using Serum, a synthesizer plugin, to create the sounds from scratch. [Source: Document(page_content="00:09:10.48: i'm gonna use serum that is\n00:09:13.04: probably the most\n00:09:15.84: standard scent today and i'm gonna\n00:09:18.32: create the sounds from\n00:09:21.68: from scratch most of the sounds that we\n00:09:24.40: use are in future rave are sauce by the\n00:09:26.96: way")]
7. The speaker is using a technique called side chaining to create a build-up in the remix. [Source: Document(page_content="00:29:33.04: i'm gonna trigger the side chain\n00:29:36.00: i'm calling this sound rave\n00:29:38.96: most people always use the impulse or\n00:29:41.60: the kick to trigger side chain it can be\n00:29:44.80: used also\n00:29:47.04: to duck elements it can be used on\n00:29:50.88: vocals can be used in so many ways here\n0
