  • Your welcome.

    I'm not exactly sure how you can make better melodies or how to harmonize your music, because I haven't heard it before. With that said though, I recommend reading into and learning music theory. The "Harmony" books from Walter Piston are great for this.

    One simple progression I really like is this: C#m7 - A - F#m7 - G#7 - C#m7

    I'm glad you like the video series and I'm happy to help. My next video should be out later this month or early next month.

  • Please do feel free to ask questions.

    You can use rhyming words, but it truly depends on the situation. As long as you can get your message across you can do anything you would like with the lyrics (if you even need any).

    Most of the time I come up with musical ideas before Lyrics, but many people start with lyrics first, form a melody, and then harmonize it.

    Hope this helps.
