When I was in my tenth class, I wanted to compose a song of
my own. But because of my studies I could not compose my own song. When I
passed my class twelfth, I decided to compose my song. I always thought that
composing a song is very easy, but it’s a very tough.
Before you want to compose your own song you should know
that which type of song toy want to compose. Do you want to just write a song
or you will be writing the background music.
Both are very tough to do. I wanted to do both the things write the song and
give background music to it. For writing, it takes a lot of time as you have to
see whether the lyrics go with the type of song you are writing. The lyrics
depend on your style of writing. In my opinion a song which has simple word and
easy to understand has the best lyrics.
Writing a song is simple as compared to giving a background
music. The background music has a lot of things involved. You have to consider
what instruments you have to use in your song. I learnt a lot of musical
instrument to compose my song.
The first and the most important thing is the starting tune.
The starting tune is the lifeline of your music. The starting tune can make
your song peppy. After you have
created the starting tune you integrate the song and then finally comes the
ending tune. The ending tune must leave a long lasting impact on the audience, so they may listen to it again and again.
After, you have done with all these things, you are ready to compose your own
songs.
Apart from all these you need to learn some good music
software because all the mixing depends on these software. It’s easy to mix and
give background music to songs with software. After I did all the thing, I
called up my cousin who is a professional music composer. He has been composing
music for the past 5 years and he had a lot of experience. He agreed to help me
and came to my home for three days. When he saw the lyrics and listened the
starting and ending tune he became a fan of me. He appreciated my work a lot,
however there were some mistakes in the ending tune which he pointed out and
rectified. We composed the song together in three days. We worked day and night
to complete it.
The song was so nice that each of my family member requested
a copy of it. After 10 years, I still listen to the song which I composed.
