The key to ALL of these is to let your inhibition GO. Biggest hurdle to the beginning of anything creative - just follow it down the rabbit hole, don't worry if it's "bad" or a "keeper". Thanks for this great vid, Andrew. Really helped me kick myself out of a rut.

A tool that helps me with this is the improve acting technique "yes, and" where anything said/proposed/offered is responded to with "yes", then added to with "and...". In other words, the quality of the offering is irrelevant, it's accepted regardless, and built on, which creates something greater than just that previous element.
@@RJFerret could u further elaborate with an example? It seems interesting but I don't know if I fully understand it
@@ramonafrombarcelona I'll second that. I'd love to hear an example of this. I think I know what is being said, but examples are big for my brain to understand lol
@@ramonafrombarcelona @Nathan Brannan Um, erm, "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" might offer better examples? Heh. Um... "My example is two characters walk into a bar..." Does it help if the next person goes, "No, not a bar, a hair salon!" It all comes to a screeching halt. The "yes, and..." premise helps brainstorming by delaying judgment and just accepting any premise, so instead, "Yes, a bar, which has a hair salon in the back." Which brings us to bartenders and stylists matching drink colors to hairstyles! OMG, it works, I had no idea how to provide an example, and had no idea it would lead to drunk hair colors. *blinks.
a really good lyric writing tip, or maybe just different way of looking at lyrics:
i was watching an old interview with kurt cobain where he was saying that only the first two lines of Serve the Servants is about their newfound status as a rock band, and the rest of the song is about multiple different things. i thought the concept of all of the lyrics in a song not having to be about one thing was really liberating
you can have 3 lines about your dog dying, a chorus about going on vacation with your friends, 6 lines about how you wish you were in a different place in your life, etc.
and honestly even if you’re writing about “different subjects” there’s usually a really interesting through-line that will emerge
This is a good aspect!
Feeder's "Buck Rogers" sort of has this going on. I think if you simply want to "write a tune", this can be very helpful. But I also think that if you want to make a more meaningful song then simply replacing the words can work as well. But the question most don't bother answering is what they actually want.
I think that Kurt probably just wanted to make a tune. If he wanted to say something more, he would have put more thought into it, obviously. But if someone out there simply wants to "make a song", they should know that there is no boundary and that those extreme bollocks of nothingness will work just as well. But there are so many people who think it actually has to mean something, it makes me feel bad for them often times.
So don't let others define everything to the point that you just don't do anything - do things and assess them later. It's music, not bussiness related decisions or a god damn surgery where life is actually at stake.
@@UltraCodex66 idk i’ve written songs where the first verse, second verse, and chorus were all about different things, only to realize months later that they all fit into a sort of larger theme and imo can give the song MORE meaning
I think this is how Noel Gallagher wrote his songs as well
@@cayniner this thread makes me think of i am the walrus
I've literally written more songs after just watching half of this video than I had in my entire life before watching it. Thank you Andrew, this has sparked a project that has me and my best friend writing at least one song a week together. It's been awesome.
Wow love this!
this guys an absolute genius, how can this much creativity be stuffed into one guy
he's a teacher. he probably thinks you have the same kind of thing. in fact, the main reason you 'resonate' with someone like andrew is because, deep down, you know that YOU possess the same kind of creative fire. so be wary of hero worship. i met my idol, allan holdsworth, when i was 17, and he was so down to earth that i stopped idolizing him, and ALL of my musical/historical/political idols etc. andrew has just put in the work in. it's time for you to put the work in now, and i am also saying this to myself; i'm in the same boat as you, come, let's row harder!
@@jimmythebold589 *rowing intensifies*
@@YouKilledFritz row, row, fight da powah!
A trick I learned about writing lyrics is to take a topic and then writing down words that are related to this topic (5-15 words).
Then I try to write about this topic but without using any of the words. For example: Writing about space, and I cannot use the words: black hole, far, stars, silence.
@@mosbazin592 shout out to NBA anna
Like Taboo! I love that game lol
@over the mountain, mountain not to use the words is useful for describing things and not using the words themselves. E.g. Don’t say: the stars. But say: the blinking light bulbs of the distance
@@radiorain5665 that was what I meant. I just didn’t know if this game exists in English. (I‘m Swiss)
@@landolin_music Woah! And I didn't know they had that game in Switzerland! 😂
It's been forever since we've had a good "do bass to it"
Glad to see that make a comeback
Great video!! Love the word writing exercise!

Of course you would
wtf are you doing here hahaha
hi roomie
Dude, I woke up with melody in my head and now I've gone down the rabbithole of music theory. Literally all of these songs you've made in this video sound sooo good man. Keep it up.
How's your music journey been? Have you written any songs? I'd love to know because currently I'm down the same rabbit hole lol
@@blackcat5771 I've written a few things in Ableton, but now I'm a bit more into piano compisition. I've started to learn the piano, and it has been very meaningful and I'm having a lot of fun!
THIS. IS. AMAZING. I feel so inspired right now. I will probably refer back to this video each time I get writer's block trying to write something!
Aw I love hearing that!
yes, excactly
:)
@@andrewhuang I really would live to write a song
@@andrewhuang What keyboard have you got? I want to get 1
for me as an amateur producer who always started on drums its very eye-opening to see these different approaches. I cant wait to play around with them myself.
drums are the best, melody is second tho
Just want to drop in one more lyric writing 'trick' for getting started, and this is really helpful for getting something going when you just feel blocked in general.
Pick any song you like, anything at all. Write new lyrics for it. Then write new music for the lyrics you just wrote.
I don't know why, but when I do this I have a much easier time STARTING the lyrics, then I usually only get a few lines into it before my own ideas for the music start to come in, and then, well, that's it. Just keep following yourself down that rabbit hole. The lyrics can sometimes follow the cadence of the original at first, but I find once I start incorporating ideas for the music, the lyrical cadence kind of naturally changes as well. The end result is completely unrecognizable from the song I started with.
Extremely underrated, especially for the fact that intermediates prefer rent, but masters prefer theft
So true that's the trick I am using
I love that rock riff in the “Start with drums” part
Same rocks!!! 😂
Me too, the guitar tone was raunchy as hell
@@Slamthulhu Yeah, I LOVE that kind of tone
Andrew, I'm a 60 year old rockist and I'm taking your class in February. Can't wait. Your channel has been a great inspiration and I wish I discovered it years ago. Love what you do and hope you can do it for as long as it inspires and fulfills you!
Hey! We’ll be in the same class! Can’t wait for it to start!
@@By_Design_Musik Same here!
@@Padlock_Steve Don't think Andrew would appreciate that. Any reason you don't have a job or stuff to sell?
I just turned 60, for real! And from Toronto. Slightly proud on Andrew’s success, just as a fellow Canadian.
Hey, I'm in the class too!
As someone who's been trying to get an album started for a few months, this came at a good time.
good luck with your album, try to not get burnt out with it (started mine in August and I'm only 1/3 done, but I mean, 60 total tracks planned so yeah)

@@waker_link how’s it coming along
I so needed this, a beginner i wrote somewhat a song. My daughter passed away and wanted to do something for her. She loved music. Your awesome at what you do.
How did it end up?
It's like Andrew did a 5 producers competition video, but with just himself and a different technique each time! Love this!
Damn, such a solid way to show different avenues for song creation! 🔥

Every song was a legit banger when getting a full production. If I ever have a musical problem I always come here first and usually last.
Your content is amazing! Your knowledge is SO inspiring ❤✨🙏
This is actually exactly how i'll start my vocal process especially, the gibberish "Na Na's" and "Dun Dun's" are very important to get the most out of your vocals and find new and cool melodies as well!
i’ve never learned more helpful musical knowledge is such a short amount of time. hugely helpful Andrew. thanks

This is literally one of the best videos have have watched in a long long while ... incredibly informative, entertaining and amazingly inspirational. It has inspired me to start writing and to keep learning. I'll be signing up for your 30 day course for sure. Thanks so much Andrew and please keep'em coming!
Wow thank you!
Man, this video is AMAZING! It inspires me a lot to get up and do something new in my daw
What I find easiest and most reliable is to just hum or beatbox into a voice recorder for a few minutes, or into a series of clips on a Push or Force. This gives me a skeleton to build a song around, and it guarantees I won't get stuck in a one-pattern loop.
This is really fascinating. I love this kind of content. Thank you for letting us see your creative process. Interesting approaches. My fave track was the one starting from chords. Just D and A and suddenly such a vibe, the melody naturally comes out of you... So cool.

Oh man, producing music among babies is hard. I’ve done it 3 times. Your level of video production (and music production) is still amazing, I don’t know how you find the time! My own children are bigger now, much more self-sufficient. They’re also developing great music skills so we all speak the same language. Parenthood is a wonderful thing, amazingly hard but incredibly rewarding. I hope you’re finding time to enjoy it too!
I'm sharing this video with my kids...!
@@mikeciul8599 good idea, these are great tips. Andrew’s energy and enthusiasm is as inspiring as the topic. Also his honesty and editing skills, it’s easy to see why his channel is so huge!
the part "Sound: Pure experimentation" when he brought his baby, OMG i fell for that dope ambience and singin' made it even better. Keep killin' music ind. n' inspiring people buddy!
For me personally, being a drummer, I've always started to compose songs with a cool drum beat or one I have stuck in my head! It is a bit tricky to develop a proper melody on top, but I usually continue with the bass line.
You inspire me to complete tracks. Often times i get caught up in never finishing things but your videos always remind me that the first step is just getting somthing down.
Andrew, this blew my mind 🤯. I took your course (which is amazing) two years ago, but there are a LOT of new ideas in this video. Thank you for giving us new sources of inspiration
This is probably my most favorite video of Andrew Huang so far. Also, each of the sample songs in this video could easily be a banger. You’re really amazing!
Andrew, you're such a massive inspiration to me, as I'm trying to figure out how to do music more seriously and professionally (and also maybe get somewhere with RUclips)! And I love videos like this because even after doing this for a while it's still often so hard to start songs. The songs you started in this video are all so cool and I especially love that last one (I relate to those lyrics a lot).
11:09 needs to be released as it's own song
The beat at 11:26 is so ducking fire! 🔥
Anybody know what genre of EDM that would be. Looking to recreate that kinda sound.
This is honestly one of the best videos you've ever put out.
Not only is it just a super informative and inspiring watch, but it's also a testament to who you are as a musician and legendary internet personality, plus it's edited ridiculously well.
Great work, Andrew
all the songs in the video should be one album, really great stuff, love it

OK Andrew, you made me lose my mind. "Searching for a spark that's true" followed by the sound of lighting up a match. Brillant, I absolutely love it
This video was so much of things I know, but just happens to be exactly what I needed to hear lately. Thank you Andrew, you are often the ignition for my creativity and the expansion of my production knowledge.
This video was AMAZING! I'm blown away by how much work you did so fast! You also dropped some REALLY great tips for songwriting that I'm definitely going to adopt. I also almost cried when I saw you front-packing the baby making beats. I'm a mom of 3 little ones still trying to make music and balance family life and that moment was huge for me.
I like how a baby just ✨appeared✨ in the middle of the video
Love the use of random numbers for picking chord progressions and such. I rely a lot on constrained randomness and it's been huge help. Glad to see I'm not alone in this!
Definitely not. Out of curiosity, what methods do you use to incorporate constrained randomness to your music? Like random number generators, or something more complex?
In all my years watching youtube videos, I never thought I could find a favorite! Thanks so much Andrew! You've relit my passion for music!♡
I'm not a music producer, but i watch your videos for the sheer quality and genius. 🤯 Outstanding.
These are ridiculously good for being instant, and "off the cuff". These sound samples are as comparable to, if not better than, top hits already on the radio.
You are so insanely skilled! My favorite, by far, was The Sound song. Love how that one came together!
The first song has been in my head for days, RELEASE IT
I love how he uses music as examples during his explanations of types of musical tools
Bro... the frist guitar bit with the drum kit beat... absolutely SHREDDING it!!! 😳👏
I find it easiest to start a song idea with a guitar part, but I actually record bass as the second or third thing I do to the song. Although bass Is often low in the mix, I think it helps to record bass pretty early on, it helps to centre everything in the song around a bassline.

This was really timely. I've been trying to get into writing my own songs but always have heard "start with drums" and drums are easily the thing I'm worst at. These other ways of approaching the problem give me some hope that I'm not doomed! XD
21:44 There's something about the modulation when the actual song starts that just.. feels so right..!
Tbh I think the project with the mug lid needs to be finished and released. It might be one of the best things I've ever heard in my life.
This might be the most inspirational/motivational video on music production i’ve ever seen. Thank you🙏🏼
agreed!
The song you got from the coffee mug blew my mind. Such an interesting sound and transformation. I need to learn to do that!
Pure talent. The songs you come up with sounds just like something that would be played on the radio.
17:55 "I was running through the dirt."
before you even started on this one i wanted to put down something in my head and when i came back to finish this video, what i made was immediately so different and thats so freaking cool
Great tips!!! Even as a seasoned musician it's good since there are a couple of things that normally we skip and get us lost in the creative process!
Thank you! Cheers for LilHuang as well!
The last song definitely would be on my spotify! The vibes!
Phenomenal music and phenomenal teaching as always, I always learn something new from your videos and can't wait to try some of these out!
Your versatility is absolutely insane
Yo that guitar tone that you used over the drums for the first example was gnarly, I would be super interested in a video about how you get that tone and the kind of toe you have on sparkle mountain. Anyways, great video as always! Your quality is always bar none, keep up the great work!
Edit: The more I watch this video the more it becomes one of my favorite from you.
I usually just go with whatever I hear in my head first, which is usually some thematic line, then I build on from there. I find it best to not have a set process for writing music. If you're constantly humming a tune, start there. Make what attracts you to listen to it over and over. From your "running through the dirt" -
I've been running through the dirt
trying to catch up to you
You dropped your shirt on the way out
I never doubted you, I can't believe
I didn't see you leave.
Needed this. Thank you 🙏🏼
Expanding the knowledge of music in the world, one video at a time. You are an amazing teacher. Thank you.
Listening to your pieces gives me goosebumps 99% of time. You're like the next Timbo (but better?!)
Lyrics are a HUGE struggle for me so I really like that word writing exercise and some of the things talked about; definitely gonna try and implement that into my writing process
Highly recommend taking a favorite movie quote and creating a song based off of that! It really helped me!
@@mayksounds Oh that's an interesting idea; I haven't thought of that as a starting point! I like it, thank you!
Probably the moment with the OP1 and seeing small hands hanging around is the best of the video :D
Please you NEED to release all of these or at least the vocals one, it's so amazing🙏🏼
is the baby optional as part of the process? or can I finish the song before getting one?
It seems to be extremely important
I loved this! I’m prepping to try and record a full album soon, and the part about the lyrics was spot on! I have over 100 notes with little snippets like that!
Edit: And yes, can confirm - they’re not all winners, I appreciate that you included that 😂
This is a goldmine full of great tips and ideas. Thanks so much Andrew!
Brother, PLEASE finish these songs! I got goosebumps from these. I'm going to check out this video every time I experience writers block.
I'm an extremley ametuer writer, and while i could write something up with ambition alone thise exercise seems like it can actually challenge you and force you to be creative during the process. I would love to see more writing exercised that can challenge the writing process, Great video.
Andrew, long time watcher here, this is most def one of your most inspirational videos. Awesome job 👌
I love your musical advice, Andrew. You inspire me every time I watch your videos
Every single one of these is a bop. You're friggin' amazing, man.
DAM THIS MAN IS INSANE 🥵 5:00
I'm writing a metal soundtrack for a game right now (first time writing a metal soundtrack) and I literally used a random number generator (3:04) last week to generate ideas for riffs. That's awesome seeing Andrew show that lol.
what game
Dude these are so money. Love all of them. Your production quality continues to inspire as well. Unmatched.
This is one of my faves you've done in a while. These exercises are the stuff. Good to know I'm not the only nutter that falls into songs like this :)
I usually start songs with an intro
Try using the outro just as a twist.

Holy I really love your first track, the “drum” one. Genius.
I always start with chords, quickly adding melody and rhythm. Separately, I have a pile of lyrics. Then, I play mix'n'match with songs and lyrics.
Great vid!
Dope video andrew! I love how you used different techniques and made so many different genres (starting with a sound was my favorite track)
I love playing with minors! The notes are so great!
