Sometimes you don’t get the desired result from your songs. Your music isn’t as bad as you think, there are things you need to put in place first when producing and structuring your song. Here is the right way to make your song better and spark the internet.
- Capture Good Ideas
You can’t just sit down and all the wordings would come right out, you need a trigger, an inspiration to create a magical song.
Here’s what I mean by magic, the best ideas are gotten randomly. take it as a duty to write down any idea, hit word or musical beat you would love your song to have.
- Passion needs talent
Just because you’re passionate about it, doesn’t mean you should produce it. Yes! Passion is a stronghold in anything, especially music. But knowing your capabilities and strengths matter most, so take charge of your talent before letting your Passion drive you.
For example; you might be the best pop singer but you’re not good at jazz, then you try so hard to create that perfect jazz music. you wouldn’t produce that goal getter doing something you don’t have the skills for.
So always make sure your talent and passion are in the same line.
Knowing your talents would help you focus on your strengths, what’s working more and your weakness, which pushes you to be your best.
- Creative writing
There wouldn’t be a good song without a write up, so if you want to produce the best of songs you have to be creative and structural and it starts from your writing.
E.g using a strong hook, catchy phrase to give your listeners something to remember and talk about.
Writer’s block is a thing so it’s fine if you can’t craft out that perfect lyrics at a sitting. Also be aware that a lot of editing would be done to your write ups before proceeding to the musical aspect. So producing that amazing song starts from your pen and ideas, so step away from your instrumentals and distractions when writing.
- Time
Time is the most essential thing in one’s career, don’t be in a hurry to drop an album or a solo, just because you want to prove a point to your fans. Music takes the right amount of time to make it perfect, so if you want that perfect fast rising song, you have to give it time
carefully follow up the writing, editing and promoting stages of your song before releasing it.
- Know the genre you’re working in
In music there are different genres. And every genre has its unique sound, technique and methods. E.g hip hop focuses more on beats and rhymes, while pop focuses on simplicity and catch phrases.
There is rock, EDM, Jazz and lots more, so when working on your song know/study the sound that goes well with it well.
