This has helped me out a lot on understanding how to match syllable words to melody beats thank you
Thank you for letting me know! It makes me happy to be able to help! :)
Great video Thank you. Could u do video how you do that DAW part (i mean building melody in your music software as you showed) Thanks!
@@RansbyJohanmaybe late but , I appreciate you 🎉❤ thnks i used ai to create lyrics from my words and wanted to create music , thanks
@@Atanepes Thank you for writing me, always makes me happy to read!!
This proves to me that music is your passion and it doesn’t matter what your method is it creates interesting results that come from your soul. Thanks for posting I shall try this way as I have written some lyrics but never matched them to melodies I have written.
Thank you for writing! ❤️
I have never written like this before. I always start with melody FIRST and then FIND the lyrics that fit it perfectly. This to me is like how A famous sculptor once said when asked how does he make such beautiful marble statues. He said I see the statue inside the block and just remove what is not the statue. So the sculptor starts with the statue already in his head. That's how I write songs. I start with the melodies and then let the perfect lyrics just fall into place. If it doesn't fit perfectly then its not for this melody. :-) The method in this video, to me, seems so more challenging and you are not really guaranteed to have an amazing melody. All great songs, ALL of them, the best of all time, all have amazing melodies. But I respect this method and will do it one day just to feel it out. Thanks for sharing it.
Well why aren't you guaranteed to have an amazing melodi this way? :) What you describe is one way yes, but I don't believe in doing music in one way, I believe in always finder new methods to challenge my self with, I believe music is about exploring and experimenting :) Can I hear your music? :)
This also makes more sense to me since sometimes I feel like melodies transmit more emotions than words, therefor melodies have priority over lyrics. But sometimes you come up with some lyrics and you dont have a melody yet. This method would be very helpful for those moments. Also everyones brain works differently.
There is no right or wrong...for me, lyrics come easy, I have loads of song lyrics written. Once I'm happy with a piece, I find it very easy to head to the piano or pick up a guitar and write a melody. Trying to write lyrics that fit over a melody is way too restrictive for me.
Yea thats how i felt was easier and satisfying👍👌
@@officialWWM me too. I find lyrics easy to write, the melody usually comes later. Phrases pop into my head, never the melodies.
this is a super cool video! I've always felt I have lots of stories to tell that I want to turn into music, but I can never put melodies to the lyrics I've been writing for years. Also, super cool structure to the video, kept my attention from start to finish!
Thank you so much, makes me very happy to read!
I am currently adding melody to my first worship lyrics. Thank you so much for this.
Sounds very awesome! :)
playing the song in the background was perfect
What a great video! Found what I really came looking for, writing a vocal melody :)
Please! Please make some more videos on step by step melody writing for a whole pop/R&b song from it's beat.
Thank you! :)
I was looking for something new to help me write melodies... thank you 🙏🏽
I'm very happy to be able to help! :)
What Chord progression is this? I looooovvveeee it!!!
Thank you brother! this got my gears going. I really appreciate you sharing this approach and for all your hard work on these videos.
I think the most interesting results come from chord substitutions in your progression and the melody incorporating the new note that is not in the scale. At least one of those chords somewhere in your progression (perhaps toward the end of cycle, like a Picardy Third) or prior to a change or section.
You have such an intriguing to the ear voice. I can't quite put it into words, but damn. Keep up the good work!
Thank you Cyrust! That makes me very happy to hear cause I have a strange relationship with my voice!
@@RansbyJohan don't we fuckin all?
@@kakashi392 Hahahaha true! :D
you have a really nice emotional voice
Ohh thank you soo much!
Thank you Ransby, for sharing your knowledge. It is appreciated.
Thank you for your comment, it makes me truly happy to read! :)
I really love the song you wrote it’s very catchy this has really inspired me Thank you for being you!
Thank you so much 🥰
Ransby np my friend ❤️
Thanks for the video, I'll try it out for sure. I have been struggling for quite some time... I can write lyrics, rhymes and in many topics, but I rarely find fitting melodies... I was always freestyling on a beat and hope for the best, and that just didn't work well for me. I'll try writing them out, like how you did, maybe that would give me a more diverse profile of melodies.. make sure I dont just repeat the same melody all day freestyling. thanks again
Then I’m sure that this will be a huge help for you- let me know how it turns out :) And a small tip, don’t be afraid of making two or three melodies for the same song and lyrics
Your song reminded me of Coldplay for some reason. It has a similar melody to it🙊😚❤
Not bad :)
@@RansbyJohan it's a nice melody of the song, btw! You did a good job there 🙈
You just saved my ass. Bless you sir!
Thank you for your very comment! And bless you too! :)
Such a simple method yet I never thought of it, really appreciate this video and I hope to see more content like this. Subscribed and hit that bell for you vro thank you ⚡️🙌🏻⚡️
Thank you so much! It makes me so happy to hear that I can help!
@@RansbyJohan tried the strategy out this morning and you were not lying, once again I really appreciate your content keep at it man
Ohh I’m so happy to hear!!! Thank you so much for writing me, it really makes me happy to read 🤗
Dude that was great sounding I loved it did you make a whole song for this??
Thank you! :) But no never got around to do so, maybe some day :D
I love your sincerity and generous spirit. I think this is going to really help me. Thanks man.
I'm very happy to be able to help! Thank you :)
I love this technique. Thank you so much
Thank you for your kind words! :)
His voice is so calm
This channel needs more subscribers!
I totally agree 😇 Thank you very much for your support! 😍
@@RansbyJohan Hey, thank you! Great videos. Hopefully you'll make many more!
Thank you so much! I always write lyrics and now I wanna make a beat over it but I dunno how! I hope I can!
Thank you for writing - I'm very happy to help! :) I made an online course where you learn how to write a song with a piano and your vocal, from scratch - It's called First Song In Ableton Live. Maybe that would be a good starting point for you? :)
I see I answered from the wrong user! But still thank you, and here is the course ransby.biz/first :)
Thanks, getting started is the most difficult, building on ideas, even bad ones is much simpler…. I keep trying to lay down a finished concept, while hoping the tune in my head helps, but when I listen there’s silence haha
It is indeed! Getting started means believing in that we're gonna suceed, and that's not easy when you're doing abstract work without a final end result - And that's why it helps so much to have techniques to just do :)
@@RansbyJohan Believing we are gonna succeed, that’s a great way of looking at it…. I think your right, I would have never thought of that way… it’s not writers block, it’s fear…. thanks
@@robertw1871 It helps me think of it that way :)
feels like James Blake and Im here for it
Uhh - You're the second to compare me with James Blake, and the first time I was like, naaahhhhhh - But I maybe see the relation now, and I totally appreciate your comliment 😍
Is this song released? I would love to listen to whole song, it sounds so nice and soothing.
Not yet- But maybe I will finish it! Thank you for your encouragements :)
@@RansbyJohan eagerly waiting! great going brother!
Oooohhhmyy!!! If i just have my own things for music
Best video i have ever seen on this topic thank u
Thank you so much!! I'm also very proud of the technique 😁
What was that you were using to make the melodies
It's funny how you said this is so simple (the method), and it actually is. Love this method! Thank you.
Hi! :) Yes extremely simple and powerful, this is one of the techniques I'm the most proud to have come up with! Thank you for writing, it always makes me so happy to get feedback
Are you a songwriter? :)
@@RansbyJohan of course! I'm not but looking to try it out! :)
@@TK-cl3le If you're using Ableton Live or wants to use it, then I have an online video course for you, where you learn how to write a song from scratch - If you're interested then send me a PB on my Instagram @ransby.biz and I will give you a discount :)
I’m here four years later but this video is so helpful, thank you.
Ok but can we talk about how beautiful his voice is
Thank you, that means the world to me, my voice is the most fragile thing I have🥰
Thanks man, this helped me alot.
I'm happy to help! :)
I'm so glad I just found your video. I literally have lyrics with no melody. I will definitely try this technique. Thank you 😄
Let me know how it works out!
What software are you using to create that melody?
Sounds like a hit to me!
I must finish the song someday and then we will see, but no matter what it's just nice to make music
@@RansbyJohan I agree but I can’t get past my writers block for the last 8 months.
@@OfficialEDirty Try to write a really crappy song where you do something you havent done before, then I will promise you that you will get over it in no time :)
So beautiful, thank you for sharing! ❤
Wonderful job 🙏
Thank you! 🙏🥰
Nice thing Man, if you are able to, please make a video on how to make flow or vocal melody on already created beat.
Are you currently in India, delhi
No I'm in Denmark :)
@@RansbyJohan Sorry bro, after seeing all your videos and your such a polite appearance. I saw one person from terrace and just resembled.
Impressive kid! #GloryJesus 👏😊
Oh my gosh what you came up with in this video is just so beautiful and eerie! In the best way! 😍 what program (may I ask) do you use to put your Melodies together? I’m a singer and a I’m at a point where I’ve got a lot of songs that I’ve been working on (just lyrics and rhythm/vocal melodies) but as much as I’ve gone back and forth (like a stubborn mule) to play guitar, read sheet music, it just isn’t my Neash (however you spell it… let’s just go with forte). I have a good ear for music, pitch , all that singer stuff but until I can possibly find and pay a composer to collaborate with in bringing together the instrumentals, I feel like I’m kind of stuck working on all these songs and my agency won’t accept a demo that’s just an arrangement of acapella and making strange sounds effects to mimic instruments and level changes… so I dunno I can at the very least try the technology approach since it seems like you can see the sounds as you’re making them 🙂 if that makes sense. Anyway hopefully lemme know which one you’re using. Or which one you’d generally recommend 🙂
I use Ableton Live and I love it, but you can use whatever fits your wallet, Reaper & Garage Band are free, but there are also Cubase, Logic Pro & Pro tools .
If I was you I would start with learning how to write chords on your computer and record your songs with just a piano and your vocals and take it from there! My channel is full of video's you can use, also for how you can add chords to your melodies ruclips.net/video/71TRX7Mb1Eo/видео.html
On my webpage under The Essentials, you can find video's for how to write new songs using a daw: ransby.biz/essentials/
For inspiration you can check out my fast songs video's or my live streams
And if you need more personal help you can book me for a video call ransby.biz/1-1/ :)
Hello, from Barcelona. I love this video and was about to ask about the program. Is super cool because is like your are writing over the piano notes which is mapping or helping you to map the melody in your mind. I have similar voice and my style is almost the same. I write more than I record because I don’t understand a lot of the technologies today. I am 32 but is full of programs and a lot of things. I use garage band but I don’t know how to open the pentagrama for voice Melody and move it like around the stairs just like you. Lovely song.
Best regards,
Iliaz
Once you got to up I was feeling it that's a cool wee song
thank you so much! have a great day :)
Thanks for this knowledge and inspiration! This was they I needed.
My plesure! Very happy to be able to help 😊
I visited your channel. You have a really different & meaningful content. Good work!
Thank you very much!!
What app do you use? To edit or make sounds?
Ableton live :)
I make the melody first and build everything around, making the counter part the lead melody, in that way I know how to compose sounds around it without clashing frequencies...
Only if you know or practice But i think instead of puttin note by note you can play with the set of notes several possibal ways in the scale to match exactually wat was in your head...
In my opinion this way is only good for making slow jam or RnB and more harmonic songs but for fast beat or funky and more rhythmic songs you can create beats and apply your melody..because in rhythm melody flows nicely when there is not much chord change ..
Thanks for your comment! 😊
I think we have different approaches when it comes to music, I don’t try to do what’s in my head, I try to expand from what’s in my head- What’s in my head is mostly my habits, and why do what you already do when there are so many other options. I also don’t use scales for making music, unless I’m learning a new color 😊
I know for a fact that this method can help you to get outside your comfort zone/habits, no matter what genre, and you can write uptempo, advanced and easy music with this- This is about doing it slowly so you get to do what you truly like the most, not just what your habits are dictating you to doo. But try it out and let me know what you think? 😊
@@RansbyJohan I have done it, and it is the way I also have begun..and I am kinda suprised that I never found anyone on youtube shared this idea but you..
So keep it up you are doing great🤗
@@HaharuRecords Ahhh very awesome, so happy to hear! :)
Great video Thank you. Could u do video how you do that DAW part (i mean building melody in your music software as you showed) Thanks!
Thank you so much! :)
I'm not sure about what you mean, maybe you can say it in another way? :)
@@RansbyJohan Hi:) I mean the way how you build blocks in your software. It looks simply but without experience in making beats it’s hard to know how to make it happen tho
Thanks
Thank you! :)
Good lyrics.
Thank you so much, I think sharing lyrics are the toughest part of music
Hi Johan ,thank you very much for your ideas, can you please tell me just what a “ vocal pitch monitor” is and where can I get one ? Is there an App for ios??
Thank you! I have never heard about a "vocal pitch monitor" before, but it looks like an app that tells you what note you're singing- and by doing a quick google search it looks like there are at least two options for IOS :)
This was pretty ingenious I’ll hold this tip with me for a long time thanks for the post Boss
So happy that you think so! This was also a big game changer for me - Thank you for your message and let me know if there's anything I can help you with? :)
Bro wanna collab
@@Sage_looser How? :)
@@RansbyJohan i wrote some lyrics
Wanna make it into a song
Was my idea 💡. U the man
Please how do you write lyrics to melodies? I always have a hard time doing that.
I do mostly as I do in the video, write a lot of lyrics, and then making it fit the melodye by adding a few notes or hits here and there :)
@@RansbyJohan wow. I'll try that. Thank you.
@@umarustrings You're welcome, and always feel free to ask if you have any questions :)
Very interesting technique!
Thank you!
I'm worried I'm having a stroke 🤣
Thank you!
Plz tell software which you are using
Ableton Live, but you could do this with all DAW's, Logic Pro, Ableton Live, Garage Band(Free), Reaper(Free) and many more!
Thank you 🤗
Thank you! 🥰
Did u release this full song? I need it! It is inspiring! 😭
Witch software this is I actually want to try it all the previous I tried I didn’t quite like it
Thanks bro
Thank you for making my day better with your positive response!
As somebody who writes songs constantly but can’t make music for shit, tsym!
I'm very happy to help!
Im stilll confused as to the relation of how to add melodies to the "lyricless" music, is there a rule or do I just find a melody that suits the music?
There are no other rules than choosing what excites you.
There are a lot of misconceptions about you having to use theory to choose notes, but theory only explains what the function and relations are, and theory will tell you that you can use all 12 different notes with all chords:)
Theory is like a navigation system, it can tell you what you did, or how to come to a specific place, but it can't tell you where you want to go or where to go to make you happy :)
Theory can tell you how to copy a song or tell you that you used a dominant 7th chord, but it can't tell you what you like or what will make you happy :)
my problem is I know how the melodies sound in my head but I lack the skills to make them come alive
Awesome 👌👌👌
Thank you!!
This helped me a lot. I only have lyrics no melody😂
Very happy to hear!
Hello. I need help. Do chorus and verses have any melodic relation or you just write them in different melodies?
I like to work with contradictions, if my verse is fast, then I would make a slow chorus(at least try it out) if legato make staccato, if low pitched then do high pitched and so on, but there are no rules- besides that it should make you feel excited :) Write 5 melodies and choose the two you like the most :)
@@RansbyJohan thank you so much! So you mean that there is literally no melodic relation between verse and chorus? Like pop songs,,, do they just create two melodies which are totally different sounding from each other and then put one of them in a verse and the other in chorus.... Did i get it right? Does it break any rules of music if there is no melodic relation between verse and chorus?
@@Annie-bf9ic There are only one rule which is, if it sounds good it is good- so yes you don't brake any rules by putting two melodies together as long as you like how it sounds :) And make sure to make a lot of songs instead of focusing all of your energy in to your first song. It's like riding the bike, you only start to make tricks when you're solid at biking forward, so finish a lot of songs, and learn from each of the songs :)
@@RansbyJohani am scared i didn't get it right.... What do u mean by putting two melodies together like on top of each other overlap or??? My question was that suppose in a song there is a verse and a chorus.... Now do they both have any melodic relation with each other or do artists just make any melody they like for a verse and chorus without connecting them melodically with each other ? Also thanks so much for the support and answering me!!! I hope u understand my question right :")
@@Annie-bf9ic Together in a song, so one melody is chorus and the other melody is the verse
There are no rules, so just make a lot of songs and learn by doing, that's the only way to do it :)
What’s the software called
I need to understand how you got the base track. I now see how I can put notes to my lyrics like this.. but you had the base track before the melody so how did you do that? Did you go off a key first and then find notes within that key ?
Go and check out ransby.biz/first :)
A great video
Thank you very much! 😊
you have a great voice
Thank you very much! 🥰
this is fucking amazing man
Thank you! ☺
What program are you using for this? Also, did you create the music first?
Ableton Live and if you want help to use it then check out my Ableton Live course ransby.biz/first/ :) Yes I made the music first
It takes you from scratch to a full song in Ableton with thorough step by step instructions :)
But where did the other music/Melodie comes from? That was there before? But it really helped
You’re asking about how it write the music?
what application is that..or what application can we use to write melodies like that...I have wrote a hell lot of songs but i need an application to compose those songs... please help me
I'm using Ableton live, but you could also use, Cubase, Logic Pro, reaper or any other daw :)
Very interesting! Why do you sound blurry? It's very nice but what is the technique?
I have never heard that term about music before 😂
Whats the name of the theme song bro , and thanx alot for the advice , youre surlley underated
Thank you very much, I actually only made the song to demonstrate the technique, but I think I should finish it this year, thank you for your motivation! 🥰
what is the music at the very start?
Music I wrote for the video :)
please I have some lyrics with there toplines can I make a melody?
I'm not sure if I understand your question- But yes if you have lyrics you can use this "method"" to write topliners/melodies? :)
@@RansbyJohandidn't mean that what I mean I can sing the melody by my mouth but I can't play it on an instrument
@@oussamahcr1907 Use a vocal pitch monitor and copy it down.
God video, det kan jeg sikkert bruge til noget :-)
Mega fedt og tak for ar du skriver! ❤️
what is the software? Do you recommend it?
I use Ableton and is of course also what I recommend :)

Stupid question! How do I know my melody is In the right key ?
If you like your melody then you’re in the right key :)
I thought you were gonna help me get well :(
I will just tell me how?
