1) Arp (reverb and echo, c minor / or middle note one up -> major mode) 2) Chord from a Song (spread around the chords and add notes , add you to them) 3) vocal acapella (got key and bpm, just harmonize with it) (calibrate brain by using root note (here c), later up an octave ) 4) use a metho you never used before 5) start with a drum ebat and make only 1 chord (by starting with the root note, then 5th and 7th and lastly minor third and second half change ) [always drop a bass:D]

@richardsullivan2537 10 ай бұрын

I’m so glad to learn from your site. The best things I learned so far I think is to learn one new thing each track. And keep going that way and using a reference song. Also, as a worker, opening the “daw”, although I’m using a Roland MC-101 and a Tascam DP24SD, instead of daw, anyway, to open my gear every day. Because I would think I need a long time period to work on it and by the time I got there I would have to relearn my equipment from square 1ish. So this is going to be really great. Im a really good song writer but was stopped up by overwhelm trying to have everything perfect on the first go. You are a pretty smart guy. Great job! Also as a contribution back to you. I think if you get a Roland MC-101 you will really dig the sounds and super easy arrangement method on their in combination with your daw.

This song shined, not because of the arrangement, but because of it's lyrics. It resonates with all of our hearts in a society where it is increasingly hard to find a relationship where we can meet the other persons expectations and we keep thinking that we are willing to lower our expectations but we actually arent.

I just find a random scale and play some chords in it. Like not in their root form but just random keys until it sounds good. Then I find a bassline and then a drum beat. Then the melody basicly writes itself.
