I've been off for a good time with SAT TestingAP ExamsACT-SO Music CompetitionGame Designand Writing Songs My issue is for however long now, I've been composing songs but failing or disliking many. I try and do blues, rock, rock ballads, acoustic stuff, all that good stuff, but I can't get it to release point. Are there any PC tools that can help me come up with ideas? I have used FL Studio to make a midi song which I enjoyed but I want to record live and real songs. I know scales and chords but like I never know what's best. I'd like feedback and I'm uploading a small demo track.

I just wanted to suggest "How Music Works with Howard Goodall", it's a great documentary for anyone who want to start looking into music theory (and to anyone else who is just curious, really). Didn't find a better place than this to put it to. I remember watching it on youtube and then downloading DVD and watching it again. I had very little knowledge from childhood, little knowledge from ~5 years back when I started and it really paints a good overall picture about building blocks of contemporary western music (including my favourite - syncopation). I don't think I need to convince any of you to watch it... Parts: [*]Melody [*]Rhythm [*]Harmony [*]Bass I think above has audio disabled on copyright grounds, here's at least first part which works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=myNHc6EmjbU
