Dark January: Work in progress
« on: January 08, 2016, 01:22:14 am »
Hey guys! This is something I've started working on in the past week, I don't really know how I feel about the tempo, so any ideas about that would be great. I am lost as far as where to head in progression, and I feel like it needs something but I'm not quite sure what. Any feedback at all would be awesome!
Thanks
Joey Dean

Alright, so it seems you're trying to make a old style rap/hip hop or trap beat. What I first recommend doing is coming up with a chord progression, and decide on the key signature. The one you have I can't really tell what key it is, but load it up on a piano so you can hear the actual notes. Then, from there, try to add variation every 8-16 bar phrase near the end, so the listener doesn't get too used to it. If you don't know key signatures, read up some music theory on the basic scales. It'll really help you figure out what key you want to make it in, go off what you feel :)

Hey dean! ^^

Well i hear your song man, i can see something that you have a purpose for this music...

but you need to work more on a structure of your song, you need to work on a you theory of your song, like introduction, break, build up, drop, break, well you understood, something for you song make sense!

But the idea is cool man, keep work on more thing, liste more music if you like, and note the way they are, copy a structure of a song, and a good start to understand each piece in which you will work so selecting beats to the intro, melodies for the break, and some differentials for the drop ^^

have a good day mate ! ;)
