Songwriting Master Class

• Storytime! Songwriting background + why I write songs

• Threshold! A great word, just wonderful
• The "faders" of songwriting (all songs have a ratio of these, and are allowed to have any snowflake of a ratio)

-- Melody

-- Harmony

-- Poetry

-- Rhythm / Percussion / Meter

-- Emotion-- Instrumentation
-- Form / Chapters / Arranging

• Clay vs Sculpting in songwriting process and why they should be separate steps
• Cool observations about songs and what purpose songs serve
