@@meetyourmaker4849 In general, I would say to study songs that you like, and take notes on what makes them sound goo and how complex they are. Learning some basic music theory is always useful no matter what genre you're composing for (for darksynth specifically, learning when to ignore music theory helps too). Beyond that, try not to stop composing partway through a song. I've found that my best work is usually done in one or two sessions. Over time, you'll develop a sense for this; just stick with it!
@@Rudolve I see, I find myself opening music software and hitting a few keys, then closing it immediately. Commitment is very challenging when there is no spark to jumpstart a solid piece.
You've got to be kidding me. You're one of my main inspirations, dude! Holy shit! Welcome! I will admit, I'm still not very good at mixing. Nice to see you stop by!
@@meetyourmaker4849 Sounds like textbook writer's block to me haha. Something I find works for me is to sit in silence for a minute with my DAW open, hands off the keyboard. I try to visualize some scene or aesthetic I want to try to make into a song, then try to imagine what that would sound like. That way, I have something to work towards, instead of just wandering aimlessly through the practically infinite combinations of synth settings and effects in my DAW.
@@RealSteelbite Noice, it sounds great! Hope to see more stuff in the future, love to see it! I’m working towards making my own original content sometime. Eventually lol.
