I like melodies. In fact, maybe i like them a little bit too much 😄. When i start a new piece i normally start with the melody and then find fitting chords to accompany it. Most of the times this works ok but when it comes to writing an underscore type like track, i really struggle, because my melodies tend to be to active. So basically the typical problem of overcomplicating things 😅. Can you guys recommend some sort of exercises to get better at this type of composing / Do you have some tipps , when it comes to writing such tracks ? Thanks in advance :)

Hey everyone. I love to read and I do it a lot. Never have I thought about reading into Composing. Does anybody know good books to look for that cover the topic Game music or Movie music? Something like an artbook like the "Arcane" one from League of Legends. Does anything like that exist? I would really love to read some.

I would be really interested in how you guys normally compose a new Track. Do you normally Play all the parts in with the MIDI Keyboard or are you more of a „putting the notes in“ kind of person :D ? If you are playing all the parts in , how do you keep track of the Chord progression (making sure the notes fit into the current chord) ? I normally put the notes in with the mouse but really am trying to get better at the keyboard , as I think this would be a good boost to my productivity if I could play the parts in efficiently.

I’ve avoided adding more string libraries since I already own Cinematic Studio Strings, Modern Scoring Strings, BBC Symphony Orchestra (and the Albion series), plus a few Spitfire extras. However, Sonuscore’s new LUX appears to offer some genuinely unique capabilities. What are your thoughts? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V8tyUHUdlW4&t=1282s

Hey Community! I would love to see your logo designs for your brand/ business etc. and hear about they came to be. Evidently, I'm not a graphic designer. I spent a day learning Adobe Illustrator and mocking this up, after wasting a lot of money on Fiverr. I would love your feedback too. The treble clef is my Initials. For context, I'm a recording, mixing, mastering engineer & sound designer and multi-media composer. Many thanks. 🙃✌️
