The important thing is to practice, practice, practice…like other forms of writing, the more you do it, the better you will get. Also, be aware that you most often might need to rewrite numerous times before getting a song just right – and you’ll know when it is or when it isn’t.
Take it from songwriter, Phil Bentley: “Don’t settle, until every part of your song feels undeniable. If it just feels “good enough” it probably isn’t good enough.”
2. Know what a song that “sounds good” actually sounds like
Most art today imitates the works of past masterpieces in some way or the other. Songwriter, Lauren Christy, puts it quite well: “There is no original thought, just original presentation. Say it in a way that’s never been heard before.”
It follows that if you want to make good music, you should listen to what is deemed as the “good stuff” actually sounds like. This means listening to songs that have made an impact on the radio and charts - and taking notes.
Zone in on classics that have stood the test of time, but also pay attention to songs that currently dominate the airwaves, even if you don’t necessarily think they are your cup of tea. Pay attention to the different parts that make up each song – the lyrics, hook, melody, instrumentation, how it’s mixed, etc. – to understand the anatomy of a song that moves the public.
3. Take stock of your talents
What are you really good at? Knowing what your true talents are will help you to focus on your strengths and become more aware of what you need to double down on or seek help with.
For example, you might be an awesome songwriter and be able to come up with great melodies and hooks, but when it comes on to the technical aspects, such as mixing instruments and production work, your skills might be weak in this area.
In such a situation, it’s possible that you might become good at producing your own tracks over time, but it’s probably best – in order to ensure your music is at a certain standard – to rely on someone else who is talented in that area. While there is nothing wrong with learning all aspects of making music, you should know what you’re really good at and things you’re able to accomplish within your power.
4. Collaborate
Working with other music creators can open your eyes to new techniques and different ways to make songs. Being in a setting where everyone is sharing ideas and feeding off each other’s energies can help to bring about works that you possibly could never have dreamed up on your own. It’s little wonder why an analysis of 2016 hit songs by Music Week and written by Editor, Mark Sutherland, found that most of today’s hit songs are co-written by two or more people.
Hope it helps you buddy..
