Movement, Bass and the First Chords: The Philosophy of Groove
Fab adds bass, a Juno-style synth, and a synced arpeggio, and shares the rhythm-first mindset that turns a loop into music inside Ableton Live.

With a groove established, Fab adds the first harmonic layers and explains the thinking behind his whole approach. He describes how he treats music creation "vertically" while mixing is "horizontal," and why, for him, rhythm and movement come before everything else. He brings in a Juno-style synth for its forgiving character, uses a tempo-synced arpeggio, and reaches for richer, less obvious chords (minor 7ths, added 9ths, and a little tasteful dissonance) to keep the harmony interesting. He also makes a practical case for a "set-and-forget" studio: the simpler your signal chain, the more music you'll actually make.

In this episode you'll learn:

- How rhythm and "movement" anchor a production
- Adding harmony with a Juno-style synth and a synced arpeggio
- Choosing chords and voicings that avoid the obvious
- Using dissonance and chord extensions tastefully
- Why a simple, always-ready rig leads to more finished music
- How to turn a repeating loop into the beginnings of a song
