How to Make An Electronic Pop Song (The Chainsmokers, Cheat Codes, Zedd, Grey) | Make Pop Music

In this video, Austin shows you how to make an electronic pop song! We go over how to craft perfect synths, layer drums, and do interesting vocal fx to build out an electronic pop song. Austin also uses a ton of tools and plugins from today's sponsor, Antares, to add unique production elements with vocals during the process!

Thank you to Antares for sponsoring this video!
