Yo!
I'm a singer and keyboard player who's been writing songs for a couple of years and occasionally trying to create full finished songs in Logic.
I feel like I have a very good understanding of things like structure, arrangement, and theory, but my tracks are super limited by my lacking skills as a producer.
What I want to create is contemporary EDM-house-dance and some trap r&b, but I just don't know what to do next or where to start.
Should I just try to look up tutorials for certain sounds and effects and then incorporate them into my tracks, or are there other better approaches?
It's not that I lack inspiration for songs(chords & melodies) or lyrics, I just really want to be able to create my own tracks, have my sounds be more punchy and clear, and to get a better understanding of picking the right sounds.
All suggestions or links to sites or specific tutorials are very much appreciated.
Thanks 🙏
