My current method of music writing as a music composition major student who has not yet taken music theory classes is to grab bits and pieces of other songs that you really like and to build off of them. If I were you, try for something original, don't be forgetin' Pitbull and rehash "Take On Me" as "Pitbull's Circlejerk of Celebs and Merchandise #1758". It's alright to be inspired, but not to copy. Although you're just starting out, so that kind of behavior would be understandable. Basically, just make your own voice heard throughout your music. |

The amount of theory you need to know is totally individual by the way. It depends on how well-developed your ear is already, and whether or not you are able to put together satisfactory and logical chord progressions and melodies on your own. I use FL Studio and it works well. Everything that you really need can be done in FL. Curate a collection of samples. Percussion, synth, ambience, vocals, melodies, whatever. Collect sound. |
