Class Summary
This class is all about the craft of songwriting. How do you start writing a song? How do you channel your ideas? What makes melodies great melodies? How do you take your songs to the next level? How do you write great lyrics? These are questions that will all be answered. We will focus on concept, chords, streamlining ideas, rhythm, melody and lyrics.
We will also focus on toplining, which is the craft of writing a song on a pre-existing instrumental track. Toplining is common songwriting practice these days, and being skill-full in this will help you land songs with the biggest dance producers / k pop acts.
After songwriting/toplining, it’s all about making your song sound great. We will learn how to create a professional sounding demo and vocal recording, which is essential when pitching out or releasing your songs. You don’t need super expensive equipment to make this happen! I will show you all the tips and tricks to maximize results with an affordable set-up.
Lastly, I also will give you inside tips and tricks on how to make it in the music industry and on things to look out for as a writer (also on the business level). I’ll share what it is like being a professional songwriter and how to pursue your musical dream.
