how to turn simple chord progressions into more melodies

[@sinsoftherich]

the "stories" metaphor makes so much sense it's a cool way to think of it

[@boyarmira]

bro i've spent time away from producing, been distracting myself in other ways even though i think about music every single day. it often feels overwhelming, but im gonna get back starting today. i appreciate you and everybody else pushing hard and spreading good messages.

[@nawang1738]

Man Nick. You inspire me so much. When I started producing beats, learning stuff in FL was so difficult for me. I searched for tutorials on YT and yours was the first that came up. Its been 2 yrs since that day and I'm so happy that my first steps towards this journey had a huge role filled by you. I love singing and rapping too so I really wanted to make my own beats as my friends who knew production never wanted to work with me maybe bc they never believed in me. I wanna prove them wrong and I've been trying to improve ever since. Thank you for everything Nick. Love from Darjeeling❤

Got to love Nicks loyalty to the producercommunity

[@yugoarchive]

Wow I really liked the tip of giving each note a story, It's a great way of looking at music and melodies 👍💯

[@boyarmira]

thanks for rocking w it

[@shayeasy]

starting with just the vanilla chord progression, adding notes to each chord, and then manipulating where individual notes start and end is genius. much more interesting than your typical cookie cutter arpeggiated pattern - but as you showed you can also layer with those to create something really deep and interesting.

[@23Steppa]

Literally my favorite producer EVER! 🖤🐐

[@boyarmira]

is You .

[@prodbyberge]

Always inspiring me every video. That story line changed the way i look at making loops for sure. Also not having everything on time, making it human, is what gives it the feel. Nick YOU made me believe i could be a producer. YOU! I work mainly with NBA Youngboy now and i even got to meet him and make some songs in person with him last month, and YOU are the reason i could do that. Keep uploading videos bro, i'm gonna click every single time and look to learn from a hitmaker. The real 🐐!

keep grinding and having fun doing what u wanna do every day. much love

The making stories thing makes so much sense

[@boyarmira]

at least it resonated with YOU

[@katiemcleod]

Thank you!!! I have been searching and searching, and I really haven't seen any other music production or songwriting KZbinr talk about what to do with the chord progressions they're teaching people to make. You have just made my life so much easier! And like others in these comments, I love the story metaphor for the notes. It meshes really well with the idea that songwriting is also fundamentally about telling stories.

[@hum-3597]

thanks to your inspiration literally just went straight on FL and made one of my best chord progressions

[@roninthegoat2810]

damn nick, the idea with the stories for every note in a chord is so genius man, that way you can create dope melodies from your feelings and what you want to tell!!

[@DesignedbyDavidd]

More tutorials in this style of you explaining what you’re doing would be awesome. Sometimes you work so fast it’s hard to follow what your doing and how your doing it. So if you can more explanations would be great thanks.

[@boyarmira]

gotcha

[@PeaterPual]

Nick mira is GOAT! 🐐❤️‍🔥 Everytime I remembered Juice wrld, during watching your tutorials! 😫

[@PassivePlays]

man this is fucking gold! I have been wanting to learn making beats for a long time, but i really havent found anyone that would explain things that would fit me.. Man.. You do it so clearly, it feels like i had all this knowledge for a long time after i watched your video(s). Something with other producers and how they teach just doesnt sit, but i found you and i am insanely grateful. You are making a huge difference in the world Nick, you are truly the MVP. Cheers.

Nick, I’ve been watching your videos for quite some time. Just want to say thank you. Quick question though if you don’t mind. When you are making your simple chord progression are you staying within the scale or is it more about what you’re feeling?

[@boyarmira]

feeling i dont really try to stick to a scale unless im trying to teach an example

Teaching is the highest form of learning bro. Let’s ride the wave. How many years now in FL have you been messing around if I may asking. I like your wide array of style and how listenable everything is. Something to strive for. What’s your advice to share music once you think it’s at professional level, just break sound cloud?
