>How do I write good songs
type 1
Reverse a songs until you find some that sounds good
make a song that is a rip off of this reversed thing.

type 2
Convert a non musical genre to a musical one by listing down their characteristics and converting it to music ones using logic skills, music skills and other paining genre skills
make some song with all those characteristics and see if it sounds good, if not try with another genre


type 3
list down the characteristics of a existing music genre and reverse them, as some example small songs become big songs.
make some music with all those characteristics if the result is bad try again with a new genre.


I could go on

type 4
do some or many of those at the same time
inverst upside down a music sheet
flip a music sheet.
read a music sheet from right to left
read the music sheet from down to up

do it with many songs until you find somehting good
>>
>>60583692

Lean how to rip off other people who have written good songs without making it overly obvious. It's what most of them did, anyway.
