I usually start with lyrics, make a melody for them, then add some drums, then use the drum rhythms for each individual instrument, i.e bass drum for the bass rhythm, snare for guitar etc. But what do you guys do? any tips?       Display posts from previous:  All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First   Jump to: Select a forum Forum index|--[Guitar]|   |-- Everything Guitar|   |-- Lead Technique|   |-- Audio clips|   |-- Gear|--[Support]|   |-- Feedback/Suggestions|   |-- Support|   |-- FAQ|--[General Music]|   |-- Songwriting|   |-- Recording|   |-- CD Reviews|   |-- Self Promotion|--[Other]|   |-- Gear Exchange|   |-- Miscellaneous, Off-Topic  All times are GMT      Guitar Dreams Forum Index » General Music »  Songwriting Powered by PNphpBB2 © 2003-2006 The PNphpBB Group Credits
