The most important thing: Groove

hi guys,

i have a question,

when i listen to what %90 of the people listen , i feel like iam only listening,

as iam djing last 20 years what i play is something different, i call it groove listening,

i mean the music that makes you actually think

i start to produce and i realized making grooves is not easy,

in my opinion %95 of the beatport including top 100 list is not groove listining type of music.

i criticaly listen the artist i like(audiofly,nick curly,io,maya jane,etc)
and i realised every thing they do is in the groove. imean the reverb is in the groove,the pitch shifting is,delays is, i mean every step they take to produce is in the groove.so i was wondering any one knows a trick about this(except groove templetes or abletons groove control)

and my second question is is there any vst or synthesizer that has groove control on it.i mean lets say i made a sound in a synthesizer and i put some phase effect on it and i want the output to be in the groove.

The reason the phrase is Rhythm and Melody, not the other way around. Don't mean a thing if it ain't got the swing.

Uhm, untrue. I just did a quick 10 minute mix for a friends YouTube channel, all four songs have deep grooves, and all four were in the top 100 at Beatport in either May or June. Was a total of 12 songs in the top 100 that had a very deep groove, not including the Techno tracks which can easily be included as well, that's a bit more than 5%.



But yes, most of what is out there is very "non-organic", it is just the trend the music has taken, sorry. I am not fond of it either, but it is what it is.
