In this episode of our Beat From Scratch series, we join HoneyLuv at W1 Studios in London as she talks us through the creative approaches she uses to produce her trademark hypnotic and groovy house.

Off the back of a number of solo releases, as well as collaborations with artists including Jamie Jones, Roland Clark and Seth Troxler, HoneyLuv has quickly cemented herself as one of the leaders in the next generation of house music producers.

HoneyLuv shares her top tips for using Ableton, her favourite native plug-ins and sample packs, alongside outlining her approach for on-the-road production with minimal hardware.

Beat from Scratch is a unique insight into an artist’s creative process in the studio. Starting from a blank session, each artist builds a track from scratch in their own style, exploring everything from drum and synth programming to mixing, arrangement and more.
