HOW TO WRITE VOCALS TO AN INSTRUMENTAL IN 3 STEPS! 🎤🎼| Make Pop Music

Показать описание

In today's video, Austin goes over how to approach writing vocals on an instrumental track. This video goes over how to find a selection of melodies, structure those melodies into a flowing vocal melody, find the theme and concept of the lyrics, and write the lyrics of a verse, pre-chorus, and chorus.

I love how every artist has a different take on a song. I hummed melodies to this, then listened to yours, I always enjoy hearing different interpretations!

Your mumbling ideas are better than most major singles out there. Good work 🔥🔥🔥

By far the BEST song writing video I’ve seen on here.

Writing vocal melodies was one of the most difficult things in which I sucked badly ... Thankyou So much Austin Sir for being there for us beginners . You are Music Teaching God to us !!!

What about a tutorial the other way around. What if you've lyrics and melody but don't know how to transfer that into a complete song in your DAW?

Been practicing writing lyrics lately. This literally helps me a ton!! Thank you.

Dude, you're fantastic. This exercise and seeing you work unblocked me from years of hiatus. Thank you dearly.

The fact that he made a video of him really starting out with his vocals, explaining keys, arrangements makes this video even more intriguing 😳🤔👀...definitely would pay for mentoring make sure to subscribe to boost his channel

Very helpful! I realised that it works very badly to make vocals from a melody recorded with piano... somehow it doesn't work for me. Is it probably better to sing in, hum in or whistle in?
Question: why you don't use track versions for the different ideas?

You saved so much time for me with these tips. I could struggle for weeks just to finish vocal production, nowdays i can finish it in couple of days.
