Composing, Songwriting and Emotions

Chapter I
Sound and Emotions
Music has always made me move my feet subconsiously. And a heavy tool for communication, I am most appealed on the adventuure.
The song lives in the melody that survives a phone speaker. It lives in the lyric that lands in a noisy café. It lives in the silence between phrases that a compressor didn't crush. A great song doesn't need perfect conditions — it creates them.
I write for the moment the chorus hits on a car radio at 70mph. I write for the bridge that holds its breath on a streaming playlist. I write for the outro that lingers after the playlist ends. The craft is making those moments inevitable.
Every decision — key, tempo, instrumentation, space — is judged by one question: does this serve the song? Not the mix, not the genre, not the brief. The song.
Chapter II
Music is the perfect competition to pain and chaos
In music I jus feel it. Less thinking and more being. Every strain that works, Works. Every note that works, Works. Every chord that works, Works. Every melody that works, Works. Every song that works, Works.
The music is a form of expression that transcends the boundaries of language and logic. It speaks directly to the soul, bypassing the rational mind and connecting with our deepest emotions.
Tools and Ecosystems
Composition or Nothing
Music is a beautiful tool for communication, from my ongoing experience I found that Fl Studio just gets me going for fast and creative music production.
I think music is the only locale within the human experience where the heart is a God, and the mind builds afterwards. Waves, Frequency and Amplitude!

Where next
Feeling the emotions and altering it with the mind.
Music should have no structured format, just like art. Mistakes can lead to a new genre and a new dimension, but it depends on the driver. What are we doing today?
