Watch Brian Culbertson as he takes you thru the very beginning stages of writing a song and producing a track starting with getting sounds up, playing a kick drum, snare, hi-hat, wurlitzer, bass and finally a piano melody on top. This is part 2 of 2.

  • Brian I've been a fan of yours since the Long Night Out cd and I must admit for you to show how you compose your music is truly unselfish.

    I have one question about your organ sound, how do you get the organ to sound so sweet? What organ program or organ do you use? OK that's 2 questions lol!

  • Thanks! The organ on all of my records is a real Hammond B3 organ with a Leslie cabinet. That's the only way to get that totally sweet sound. Some computer plug-ins sound pretty good, but nothing compares to the real thing!!! When I do demos, I'll use the Logic EVB3 plug-in but I'll always replace it with a real Hammond on the final product. And most of the time, its Ricky Peterson playing it, who's one of the best organ players in the world!

  • What's up Saxmonster!? I'll do a vblog about what you're asking. Stay tuned...lots of extra tech blogs (in addition to new music) coming for both the professional and for everyone else to enjoy ;) Thanks for watching! BC

  • Cool cool....epsresso video is now up!! Lots more coming over the next several months...stay tuned ;) BC

  • @proprotools1234 Hi you could try Arturia Minimoog V2 or Gmedia Minimonsta.

  • Thank you Brian for the great video's and the awesome you are the best in every thing bro.. I like the sound of the bass is there is any plugin sounds same as the midi moog bass?

    Kind regards from Sultanate of Oman

  • Man your awesome! I love the SE-1(my fav synth) also didn't know u can rec. it straight in Logic(I use Reason), & I didn't know your from Chicago!!!!

  • cool

  • BTW, Have you ever used Ivory, EWQL Piano, or Akoustik etc. on a final project? I find they are more than adequate for non-lead material. I was curious if you've found them useful in a major way yet?

  • jazzyat is right on the money! This is exactly what I wanted to see and from the person I wanted to see it from no less!

  • Finally, an up close and personal demo of how a song is DONE! Good Stuff! Not to many videos on here show you THAT and all on one HAND!!

  • Wow!! Writing a song is both a science and an art. You are a genius, Brian. Keep moving, man.
