1. Listen to a variety of music. When I take time to download music, listen to others, "there is for my creativity a jump start. It's like eating a kind of - I'm trying to digest a variety of music to get me a balanced diet of inspiration. If I hear notes, my subconscious mind to the nuances and riffs and tone, and later, when I write my own music, I find myself writing a lot smoother.
2. Practice singing harmony. One of the best skills that can be developed as a songwriter,be able to sing harmony on the fly. How you drive in your car, practice singing harmony to the music you are hearing. singing harmony on the fly is really an act of composition, and how to become fluent is are you in your composition skills.
3. Keep a digital recorder with you. I make a habit of keeping a digital recorder with me at all times. You never know if it could be a great new melody come to you, and I myself find that I tend to come on with a melody, if I have aRecorder with me. I particularly recommend with one of your bed, I find that I often wake up with a song through my head, and a recorder in the vicinity that allows me to get the tune down on paper.
4. Practice your instrument while watching a movie. This is one of my favorite new tricks. I practice jazz chords and scales, while DVD's, and I find that multitasking helps in this way to my game smoother.
5. Take your time, with others to jam. Even if you're not in aGroup, time to jam with fellow musicians. I think that we look forward to a jam session helps me a bit more creative - I want to share a song, and I tend to write a little more under pressure.
6. Find encourager. It is really important, a few people who like your music and encourage you to find. Writing music is a very personal act, and it is difficult to produce if you do not have any positive feedback. According to friends who really enjoy my music and who canPromotion helps me to motivate me.
7. Read poems and short stories. At the same, what I'm trying to digest a variety of music, I also seek to read poems and short stories. I think that the vote in the imagination of others by reading helps me more imagination, the ability to write my poetry helps
8. Challenge yourself to write even a poem, every day. I was disciplined to write a poem, as I take the bus to work every day, and I find that this helps mebe able to produce texts for my songs when I need it.
9. Take advantage of existing write poems or Bible verses and melodies for them. I think my writing ability to fine-tune among other poems, and writing melodies voted for them. So far I've written tunes for the Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, the book of James, and the book of Ephesians. Again, the discipline helps the production of tunes me to be more creative.
10. To improvise melodies, while alternating between two chordsAccompaniment. I have found this exercise that a stimulus for writing good tunes: with his left hand, I alternate between two chords, and with my right hand, which I improvise melodies. Also practicing writing music on the fly helps me creatively.
11. Develop your ability to think in multiple lines of instrumentation. If the music is going through your head, try your composition ability to extend the thinking in the music on multiple lines. It takes effort, but the number of rowsMeans you can hold in your head, the better you will be able to compose, when it comes time to write.
Remove from time to practice these disciplines, I hope you find your song-writing ability increased.
