Intro To Music Concepts

Composing backing tracks online is currently the best way to make professional quality music for your project, especially one with a consistent rhythm. All the songs so far on my soundcloud link are like that. Steve Mugglin's Musical Theory for Songwriters is where that handy chord map came from, and it has some other useful information too. It sound great without crossing any line, following the basic Trap sound pattern: bass-heavy 808, crisps snares, rolling hi-hats, gritty sounds, simple loop melodies.

Do the same sort of playing around that we talked about in Step 1, but with chords, until you find something that sounds good to you. Furthermore, it is now widely known that people tend to enjoy listening to the same few songs over and over again and can only take in a few new songs at a time.

When DJs scratch, they're simply playing specific sounds backwards and forwards at different speeds, and controlling the output with either a volume slider, crossfader or switch, thereby creating those unique effects. With the sturdy foundation of the bass and other rhythm section instruments, the melody is free to do all sorts of things.

Here we had experts create accompaniments — in five minutes or less — for a large number of melodies, using (a) MySong, (b) whatever tools a musician would normally use to accompany a melody (instruments), and (c) a commercial sytem that creates accompaniments for instrumental(not vocal) melodies (to show the value of our vocal-specific innovations).

So once you know what you want to use to make beats and songs you need to setup the computer, install the software and hook up all your equipment. In certain genres of music (like Hip-Hop) drums play lil uzi type beat a very important, central role. Then add layer on top of layer until you come up with something that sounds full and musical.
