Akai Force Funky Tech House Tutorial .. Detroit style vs Chicago melodic techno | SnowMetal 2025 3.5

Join me on the Akai Force as I build a track from scratch, blending funky house grooves with techno energy inspired by the classic sounds of Detroit and Chicago. In this session, I’ll walk through sequencing, sound design, and live performance techniques to craft a track full of swing, soul, and underground drive. Whether you’re into deep house, jackin’ beats, or raw techno, you’ll pick up ideas for groove programming, arrangement, and performance workflows that make the Force such a powerful standalone unit.

If you love hardware production and that timeless Midwest club sound, this one’s for you.
