Open your mind, try new things
4/4 is the most common time signature, maybe try something new?
the video doesn’t only cover king gizzard but it mostly does because they’re the kings of 7/4 – 7/8
Quick Start in Music Theory!
Okay writing music is annoying sometimes and hard. I started out writing music not really understanding much about how to make songs interesting and wrote the exact same type of song for a while. Eventually it hit me that a little bit of music theory never hurt anyone. This video I think has a few key things that can be helpful when not knowing starting in theory!
And if you don’t feel like theory theory and want to just learn something a bit more digestible, learn a tiny bit of keyboard! If you can figure out middle C on a piano those little piano rolls in your DAWs will seem a little easier!
When making music on a laptop for the first time everything feels super foreign and I think videos like this one will help it make a little bit more familiar!
