Music production courses can be the key to become industry-ready that also helps in entering industry. How the song should be written is very debatable. There should be some structure followed while writing the lyrics like beginning, middle and end. A good song will have all the elements like melody, harmony and rhythm. The music and lyrics together support each other and when the singer sings then it should sound musical. The Songwriting process can start with a drum loop and then building up with other recording instruments on top of the song. The catchy melody in a way should be pleasing to the ear. The set of chord progressions can stay in our heads when the song is done.

If an aspirant has written intro, verse and a good chorus then there shouldn’t be any repeat one after the other. There can be a build-up while arranging a song. For example, the verse has vocal and guitar, the second verse adds the drums and bass, the chorus adds the vocal harmonies and synths. The song must have the arrangement of various instruments.

Mixing is the process of blending all the instruments you’ve recorded into a stereo mix. It’s time to turn the track into a masterpiece. You will listen all the instruments clearly with detail. If you’re a beginner and not familiar with various effects used in mixing, then you need to learn the skills required. You can be a music producer or mixing engineer while choosing your career option.
