7 WAYS TO START A TRACK

Part1

01 Clear your head

It’s important to get into the right mindset when starting music. Getting into the mood helps with anything creative – if it feels like hard work, it’ll end up being hard work. You have to have no distractions so switch off your internet, your doorbell, your phone – anything that could interrupt your flow.

02 Start from scratch

You’ve been there. You’ve opened up your DAW and it’s loaded up an old song or some looped ideas you’ve been working on. Perhaps if you just spend a few minutes with it… But it’s another distraction. If you’re starting from scratch, start from scratch.
