These are results from starting with just a chord progression & stacking ontop of it:
http://signalsandsorcery.com http://signalsandsorcery.com About 5 months ago I decided to pivot & start with a melody & chords. I have not yet stood up the system that starts with chords & melody. So the answer is not yet.
- p1esk 9y agoI wonder how great composers go about creating a novel melody? Like Mozart or Beatles.
- stevehiehn 9y agoYa, good question. I doubt there is a single method. I suspect pre 20th century single note melodies were often sung and then following the strict rules of counterpoint harmonies were added. Its seems like pop music is often a chord progression first and then a melody added second.
