Composition/Arrangement/Theory / [Q] Composition & Workflow
« on: February 10, 2016, 01:33:48 am »
Hi everyone
I've a little question about workflow towards composition.
So basically when I make music I start with the chords and melody to make up an idea. This idea is then the worked out into a break and chorus.
The thing is, usually I end up with a project which has no intro/outro and I say to myself:"Those two parts mostly contain elements of the drop (speaking mostly for commercial dance music), so I'll wait with them."
But what if it's all the way around? What if actually the drop contains elements from the intro?
I would like to hear your thoughts. Knowing your workflow after you've got your idea, is surely interesting.
My projects usually sound like ideas arranged rather than an evolution of sounds, even if I try hard with automated parameters.
Curious what you guys have to say!
