Song Development Chart

I saw this written by Roger Wang, the guru in fingerstyling guitar. I guess this is a very basic method on making a song. You cant go wrong if you follow these basic simple rules :)

First, start with the basic idea. Choose any topics you wanna talk about, or come out wit your own melody, or if you re a writer, you may start scratching down your basic lyrics and then humm to your tune

Once the idea is there, work on the music arrangement. Some musicians work on their arrangement together during the brainstorming of the idea of the song. I guess whatever works with you and however you're comfortable with.

Then do a complete demo and take time to review it. Dont rush. Try to get as many people to listen to it and get their honest feedback !!!

If it doesnt feel right, you might wanna go back to square one and fix the problem :)

But if you feel right, and you believe it would work, start practicing, have a few jam session, and then start recording. A good musician would know whats a good record.

All the best :D
