Melodic Contrasting - How To Write GREAT Melodies


Listen Later

Today, Callum and Jamie discuss Melodic Contrasting and why you need to get your head around this beautifully simple tool if you want to craft better songs. 

In this episode you'll discover: 

  • How melodic contrasting works, why it works, and some examples to help you get started.
  • Why you should be putting this tool into practice if you want to start crafting better songs today.  
  • How you are already very familiar with this tool as you have been listening to it for as long as you've been listening to popular music. 
  • How you can use melodic contrasting to take your ‘shower songs’ and turn them into effective, emotive bangers! 
  • And finally... why it’s NOT all about going big, it’s just about providing the listener with enough contrast!
