Like the plebeian fuckboy I am, I went out searching for YouTube tutorials for things related to using Serum as well as dubstep basses in general, because I'm a shitlord that likes making a music genre that was worn out of new content two years ago. Alas, on my adventure I discovered something magical.

Live production videos.

These fucking magical gems help on so many levels, whether you make the kind of music the producer is or not. Live production videos, as you can guess, is where a producer makes music live on camera, or on livestream. Ask anyone in any artistic field, and they'll tell you that you learn mostly through imitation and e\xperimentation. After you can imitate, you can experiment and branch out and add your own style and flavor, but it's important to imitate first to get a firm grasp on the essence of what it is you're doing. And these video are perfect for trying to imitate. You can look at what producers use, you can look at their workflow and how these professional musicians compose, EQ and sequence their music. It really, REALLY does help.

So, I'm going to put a bunch of stuff I've sound tonight down below. Feel free to contribute anything you'd like, I'll try to update it if there are any worthy things noted!
