Get an outside perspective on your songs 💬
Especially the unfiltered first-listener impression of people who have no clue about music is worth a lot!
They don't fixate on technical issues or music theory. They just listen to the music with their heart. And if they don't feel anything or a certain part of your song, you should listen very carefully about what they have to say.
At least it is a great indicator if there is something no perfectly right at the moment with your song. And even if it is hard you should always try to listen to your music with the ears of someone who never listend to music before.
Is your song flowing? Does each part make sense in an emotional point of view? Are there any moments where you get interrupted in that flow? If yes, is it intentionally or not?
Music is about heart and emotions. Music is art. For a professional musician this still counts and goes hand in hand with authenticity. Which you know for me is one of the most important aspects about an artist.

It's all about the song 👇If you feel the urge to keep a certain part of song as it is, because you "spend so much time" to practice that part. Or that it did take you extremely long to get it to this point. Or that you want to keep it that way because it feels like you need to show your skills... Then it's probably a good idea to take a step back and ask yourself:"Is this really about the song or about my ego?"At the early stages of my career as a songwriter I was very guilty of this behavior. I wanted to apply all my skills I learned about music theory and songwriting, that it got very constructive at some points.Now that I have over 20 years of experience I wouldn't miss these songs and I still love them for what they are. And with the experiences I made I can say: the ego was a problem a lot of the times, even when more simple ideas would have been a lot more beneficial for the songs.You really should do your own "mistakes" and experiements. You will learn a lot from them. Just keep mind from time to time that your ego might play a bigger role than you would admit.If you want to bring your songs to a new level send me a message.

Support the story of your lyrics with the music 🎶In general the verses tell the story. Often they tend to be more subtle, a little bit more calm and a lot of space for the words you sing.Which makes total sense. The listener wants to know what’s going on.The chorus therefore is most of the time very easy to understand and exists just of 2-3 lines of text. That’s what it’s here for: the listener should remember it after listening to it for the very first time. So here it’s all about catchiness, remembering the main hook and a wise selection of words that carry the message and just sound good.Next time you try to bring your lyrics and music together reduce the verse to a minimum and check where this is going for you. If you miss some details afterwards: they always can be added in the production.If you want to know how I can help you with your music send me a message and let’s talk how I can help you with your songs.....#supportlyrics #lyricist #songwritersofinstagram #songtexteschreiben #musikmachen #musiker #musikerin #liederschreiben #musicmaking #producesongs
How you can improve your songwriting immediately 👇The Verses are for developing the story 📖The Chorus is for the most important message for the overall story 💬EXAMPLE:VERSEIn the verse the protagonist is facing a difficult situation, like a situation in which he/she has to decided how to handle it.Describe what the protagonist is doing to avoid this decision. He/she thinks about it, goes to a place to sort his/her mind.On the way to this place describe how the person feels and how the person perceives his/her current environment.CHORUSFinally the person is at this place where everything seems more easy. It’s relieving to be here and why couldn’t it be always that easy?Pick a line that describes that feeling you want to highlight. Don’t be afraid of repetition in the chorus.Many very catchy choruses are just 1-2 phrases with some small variations when they are repeated.Have fun with your next session when you write lyrics 🌟When you want your whole music production to reach a new level drop me a message and let’s talk to find out if and how I can help you.......#lyricist #songwritinglyrics #writinglyrics #lyricswriting #writingpopsongs #popmusic #popmusician #popmusik #songtexte #songtext

The counter is there for a reason, here's why 👇
While I was editing this reel I figured that I extensively used the key phrase "chord progression". I could have record that clip again. But then I thought: "This is about not being afraid of repetition" - so why the hell should I care about using this phrase a few times more than I "should" 🤔
What is the purpose of this video?
I want to share my knowledge with the community and want to help create artists better music. 📖
Could I have done it "better"?
Sure. Coming to the point is essential when you want to educate others. Leaving unnecessary information out helps to focus on the important stuff. BUT the essence of what I want to share with you is still there. 💡
By posting this and pointing out the repetitive use of "Chord progression" I want to encourage you (on a meta level), just to go with any set of chords you like as long as it supports your hook / melody and you feel it. Take out the pressure and enjoy making the music that comes out of your heart. The authenticity that comes along with this is by far more important than any fancy change of chords.
Let me know what you think of this in the comments. I am happy to discuss about your thoughts!
