Beware Of These Bad Songwriting Habits!

"At the heart of every music production is its basic building block—the song. It’s the key element, because if you don’t have a great song or songs, you won’t have a great record. You can have the most brilliant players provide excellent performances, and you can do a masterful production job, but if the songs aren’t there, not much of the audience is going to care beyond the first listen. Indeed, music history is littered with artists, bands, and records that had everything going for them except the most important thing: the songs."

 Make sure you are writing your very best songs by avoiding these 7 bad songwriting habits (courtesy of of our friends at DIY Musician).

SONG REVIEW 🎵📝 Temptresssun - Endless Talks (Debate)

Image
Temptresssun - Endless Talks (Debate) Alternative/Alt. Rock, Indie rock/Folk, Classical Cairo, Egypt Overall Impression: Thoroughly absorbing and deeply atmospheric from start to start, Temptresssun's ambient post-rock/alternative instrumental "Endless Talks (Debate)" is a forever evolving piece of songwriting that makes superb use of its delay-drenched guitar layers, reverb-engulfed synth pads, dreamlike sound design, and free-flowing melodic expeditions. "Endless Talks (Debate) feels very much like a journey, yet the destination is unknown, making for a deeply mysterious and somewhat ghostly musical landscape in which the listener must navigate. Temptresssun invites listeners to enter his dreamlike world of engrossing tonal layers and organic textures, and it's a world I'm happy to get lost in. Strongest Point(s): Compared to pieces of music with an identifiable vocal performance at its forefront, instrumental music is a wholly di...

SONG REVIEW 🎵📝 Scott Nichols - Find The Mistletoe

Image
Scott Nichols - Find The Mistletoe Country, Pop, Acoustic New Hampshire, United States Overall Impression: Boston-based Singer Songwriter Scott Nichols has something special with his new holiday tune Find The Mistletoe. Filled with seasonal memories and a fantastic groove, Find The Mistletoe touches on some classic holiday themes, but still manages to be completely unique and original. The song meanders through ideas and textures, but the charm exuding from Nichols keeps the listener's attention. His lyrics take snapshots of joyful holiday moments and memories and create a collage that is all too inviting. Although the tune starts strongly enough, Find The Mistletoe definitely grows into something greater. As the song progresses, the groove, backup vocals, and Nichols' soft singing wrap themselves around the listener and washes away all of their concerns. Overall, Find The Mistletoe is a fantastic new holiday tune that has a unique sound and is a strong m...
