Don’t be afraid to take some chances. Having a unique sound will help set your music apart for listeners.

If you’re using a bridge in your songs, its last note should usually work with the downbeat of your chorus.

Using effective phrasing is one of the top ways to enhance your songs

It’s good to use critical thinking, but don’t over-think your lyrics. It’s best if you let your songs flow naturally and then tweak them in meaningful ways later.
