SZA Type Beat Breakdown | GarageBand iOS Tutorial


The BPM is set to 95 and the Key is set to F Minor

The first sound is called 80s Chime Vibe from the keyboard collection. Here’s the chord progression, this is the chord progression we will be using throughout the beat.

Next we have a PAD sound called Lunar Pools playing the same chord progression.

We have another PAD sound called Galatic Starfield with the same chord progression adding more layering sound.

the fourth sound we have is another from another PAD preset called Aurora Over Iceland, playing a simple chord stab like this.

For the counter melody we have this I-95 Chronicle Piano sound From take a daytrip kit. Here’s what it sounds like.

We have another melody sound called 70’s Synth Arp playing towards the end.

Next lets move on to the bass sounds.

First we have the Breaking Bass preset playing the root notes of the chords. As you can see there’s a pitch glide towards the end.

We have another Bass sound called Auten Road Interaction Bass Which sounds like this.

Now that we are done with the Melodic portion of the beat, lets move on to the drums.

You can find all the drum sounds in the Midnight Kit, Link is in the description. the drum kit also comes with 6 original samples created by me that you can use for your next production. Come check it out.

Here’s the Hi Hat pattern, Zoom in all the way to get this Hi Hat roll pattern.

Next we have the Kick playing this Pattern.

Next we have the Snare sound. We have two of the same snare sound except one of the snare sound has reverb to create this interesting dynamic between the snare sounds.

We have this Snap sound to finish out the beat.

And yeah that will pretty much do it for this beat, this is how you make a chill RNB type beat in the style of SZA.
