If it sounds good, we love it. Where we will indulge in a little 'muso' however is to express our sheer joy when notes come together and just work. It might be a stacked and detuned sawtooth, or a sample of a chainsaw, but when notes meet and magic results, then we just can't get enough. Hence our Create The Perfect Tune feature this issue – it's the key to your keyboard! By following a few basic rules then straying from our examples in your own unique way we guarantee you'll have a new tune in no time. And don't miss our Toolkit on the DVD. There's audio and MIDI files so even if your strictly hands-off, a few click-and-drags is all you need to make new music. Try it.Meanwhile Richie Hawtin's Plastikman Live rig may be beyond the dreams of mere mortals but our feature in the mag and video on DVD will open your eyes to what is really possible and what you can really do with new tech.And dishing the studio knowledge is massive Beatport star Umek. His in-depth breakdown of two tracks (and bass sound construction) will set you on your own path to greatness. And with Count & Sinden, the new Traktor Kontrol S4 and some amazing new plug-ins completing the mag, we've another classic on our hands. Hope you like it.And to whet your appetite here are trailers for our exclusive Umek and Richie Hawtin videos. Remember: The full length versions are only on our DVD!

// Twice a month we revisit some of our reader favorite posts from throughout the history of Audiotuts+. This tutorial was first published in September 2008. Following my tutorial on creating a house drum track we received requests for information on creating bass lines, lead sounds, FX and arrangements. So, over the coming weeks I will be supplying step-by-step tutorials, demonstrating possible techniques for completing an electronic house track. I will build on the track in each tutorial so you can see things develop and make the Logic project available at each stage. Even though these tutorials are completed in Logic Pro 8 and in a one particular style of house, the techniques are very much generic and can be applied to any software and genre of dance music. Note: this tutorial contains embedded audio that will not display in a feed reader. Click back to the site to read the tutorial with audio or download the Play Pack at the end of the tut. 1.
