Producing music

Without a song, how could one possibly begin to record? Typically, writing a song starts with an idea or
an inspiration. It may begin with lyric and a melody, a chord progression, a unique sound/loop or an
improvisation that takes on a life of its own. Once this idea __may be developed__(develop) enough to
 stand on its own merits, the music production process _should be started ____(start). A music
production must support, in every way possible, the message or prevailing emotion of the song.

The most common mistake I see today with young producers and songwriters is that they focus on the
sounds or production elements before the song _might be finished___ (finish). The song _has to be
written (write) before you start producing. For certain styles of music this can work if the production
invokes a feeling or emotion that inspires the lyric and melody. In many cases though, the production
sounds disjointed because the lyric and melody end up being limited to the production style or
arrangement. What happens next is that the arrangement _must be adapted___________________
(adapt) to the lyric and melody and the production can easily lose the coherency necessary for the song
to carry its message.
