Hi! so i haven't gotten many replies to my question a while ago, maybe because such methods don't exist, maybe because i didn't phrase my question correctly.

Here's what got me started on this topic: I've been hearing musics created by someone I know, and the similarity between the musics he creates, and the original tracks he is trying to copy, are truly astonishing. I know that he is not a very qualified or experienced musician,as his musics just a short while ago were not that praiseworthy. He claims to have taken a training course in music replication, and wouldn't offer any more information, just that he does not put in a lot of work at all. He claims to have learnt the tricks how to simply recreate a complex music track with the right midi software. Do such shortcuts really exist? Or do i listen to a music and recreate it layer by layer without the vocals? Anyone?
