Course Headline: How to write killer toplines that get publishers' attention
Course Description:
Ever wondered how PRO songwriters are able to write incredible melodies and lyrics, time and time again? If you've always been fascinated by the art of songwriting but felt overwhelmed by traditional methods involving instruments, this course is your golden ticket! 🚂🎵
Unlock the Secrets of Modern Songwriting:
- Who it's for: Aspiring topliners and songwriters looking to master the craft of writing melodies and lyrics over already produced beats.
- Skill Level: Suitable for beginners and intermediate writers who want to transition from traditional songwriting to toplining.
Why this Course is a Game-Changer:
Most other songwriting courses focus on writing "traditional" songs - often using a keyboard or a guitar for accompaniment. However, an increasing number of tracks that are released these days are not written like this. Instead, the tracks are first produced (without any vocals), and then a professional 'topliner' is hired to provide the melody and lyrics.
Writing this way requires a different skill set, and this course is designed to teach you how to write as a topliner, not as a traditional songwriter. 📚✨
