my Dream Angel is hanging out with my Guardian Angel .. so i should start writing Blues song since those two aint likely to show up? just.. Start, now.🧭 and Thanks for the encouragement.
I have written songs in the guitar, and can confirm this is 100% how it's done. From Bob Dylan to Machine Gun Kelly, that's how they all do it and sometimes it shows a little too much.
You make everything seem so easy, but explain it in a way that gives me hope. Cheers for the awesome video as always, they have made me a better player than you could comprehend. Thank you :)
As someone with musical ear syndrome, and who is a musician, I can actually say that while some songs haven't come to me a dream, they have come to me due to my audio processing issues making me 'hallucinate' sounds.
@@TheLivingMelanie It's not terrible for me, b/c it only really happens when it's quiet. But I have heard from some people who say it's really distracting at best.
Im a pianist but this is why Im focused on learning guitar. Its so fucking easy produce a song with guitar, you dont even need to know music theory just how to TOUCH 2 or 3 chords, arpeggiate, imagination and thats it. Its not coincidence that music take a great evolution since guitar was introduced in jazz
I have a question to ask about the tunning, i see people learning the fretboard on standard tunning but what happened if I change the tunning? Do i have to learn it again? For example math rock tunning “FACGCE” can i play that on standard?
Technically if you change the tuning al of the scales and chord shapes will be different. But a lot of alternate tunings definitely don’t need as much structure as standard tuning. But yeah, the only way to really play songs that are in a different tuning if you want it to sound like the original is to retune your guitar,
@@RedlightBluei seen some artist like ichika nito can play a lot different tuning and even have unique tuning of his like the “Ethernal” thing, how can he do such thing like that? It is pure practices or he just really talented in that? Thank you for the answer, definitely a like and subscribe for you❤❤
YOU are the angel in my dream and we're all living in a budget Inception sequel ❤ this is great advice! But lowkey when I started learning guitar I started waking up with bits of fully produced-sounding songs in my head. The other day I shook my boyfriend awake and told him I heard a White Lies song called "Have a piece of bread". He loves White Lies and bread, so I think that one was supposed to land in his head and accidentally ended up in mine. Maybe it's magic, maybe the more you engage with a skill, the more your unconscious brain keeps working on it too? Idk but it's fun.
this video was a huge help, if you could make a video explaining how to find good lyrics. like when i should have words that rhyme or if i even have to have them at all.
Those are the kind of decisions you have to make yourself as an artist. A lot of songs rhyme every line, and there's songs that don't have any rhymes at all. Neither one is more correct than the other, they're expressions of the writer. No one else can tell you what the "good" lyrics are for you, and tbh the only way to get closer to your true voice is to keep experimenting with the process.
I play bass guitar and had made some original songs on it. Someone on a twitch chat said that I should have a guitar to make originals. I feel like the last three years of making material was for nothing.
Remember, people don't know what you're doiong, so they don't know when you're making a mistake. Also, breaks are common in songs, so you could use that to think about the next lines, if you're improvising.
i’ve had numerous songs come to me in a dream. one of them even ended up on my first album. my best friend has experienced the same. it definitely happens more than people think.
Practicing your scales seems to help with the melody, and noting things you hear people say to help with lyrics I usually seem to be able to improv a melody when I start practicing my scales. I'm sure if I ever take a notepad to work and note what people say to each other at the tables I'd be able to come up with song lyrics
Writing music is something you can’t force. Pay attention to what people say and do around you. Listen to phrases that are said and turn them around. When you think of something that makes you happy….write. When you think of something that makes you sad or angry…write. These emotions spark creativity. Good luck.
Even AI has its limits. People want to hear music that moves them. So AI might put together a melody that mimics something that’s been done before, but lyrics that speak to the heart is something else entirely.
This was an absolutely solid video!!! This really broke things down for me and I've been trying to write and play for years😅 I never really looked up how to do this just kinda tried here and there. Your video was the first I watched and it's friggen perfect! 🤌
