I used to start dozens of songs and finish none of them. Then I discovered a game-changing 3-phase songwriting process that transformed my entire music producer workflow. Now, I'm sharing that blueprint with you. In my decades of work as an artist and music producer, I've learned that creating professional music isn't just about talent—it's about a structured music production process. In this video, I'm breaking down the three distinct phases I use to finally finish tracks, a system taught to me by producers ‪@illGatesMusic‬ and ‪@Spiderhound‬. PHASE ONE: IDEA & SONG GENESIS - This is the Zen zone. Your only job here is to write a song and capture ideas without judgment. PHASE TWO: NUANCED PRODUCTION & RECORDING - This is the critical middle phase where your song's sonic landscape is built with intention. PHASE THREE: MIXING & MASTERING - The final phase where technique meets taste. Learn why you should separate this phase from the rest. 🔥 Ready to level up your entire music creation process?
