Production Insights: Iglooghost Reveals the Methods Behind His Music Creation Process

In the thriving world of electronic music, UK producer Iglooghost has carved out a unique niche with his forward-thinking production techniques, genre-bending releases, and captivating audio-visual narratives. If you're eager to learn more about creating tracks like his blistering hyper-trap beast, 'Teef Chizzel', here's a guide to help you on your journey.

Our online courses offer a wealth of resources for music enthusiasts, including exclusive 1-2-1s, masterclasses, production tutorials, career opportunities, feedback sessions, and more. While there may not be any Iglooghost-specific courses available, you can find advanced electronic music production tutorials on platforms like Udemy, Skillshare, or even YouTube that focus on sound design, complex arrangement, and mixing techniques in Reason. Look for courses that cover glitchy, futuristic sound design and aggressive percussion programming.

For a more personalised learning experience, independent producers and coaches often offer personalised mentoring sessions geared toward electronic music. Websites like SoundBetter or production coaching communities might connect you with instructors who can analyse 'Teef Chizzel'-style production and provide tailored advice on arrangement and sound design.

The Propellerhead Reason community forums, Reddit’s Reason producers subreddit, or Discord groups are invaluable for sharing project files, advice on making kicks hit hard, glitchy effects, and otherworldly textures—techniques Iglooghost is known for. Engaging there may also lead to career opportunities or collaborations.

In terms of gear, while Iglooghost’s exact setup isn't publicly detailed, Reason 13 is a strong DAW for creative sound design and manipulation, supported by compatible MIDI controllers like the Akai MPD 24. Experimenting with Reason’s native RV7000 reverb, Pulveriser for compression/distortion, and Europa or Grain for synth textures can help recreate the complex, textured sounds found in 'Teef Chizzel'.

Additional techniques for hard-hitting kicks and otherworldly sounds in Reason include layering your kick drum sounds, using parallel compression and transient shaping with Reason’s Dynamics devices, employing creative automation and glitch effects with Reason’s Combinators or third-party plugins, and sound design using granular synthesis (Grain) and extensive modulation.

While there's no one-size-fits-all approach to learning Iglooghost's unique style, combining advanced Reason tutorials, community interaction, personalised coaching, and practice in layering complex percussions and synth sounds will get you closer to that style.
