I've begun to make music for my game.
But it doesn't sound very good, since I'm trying to learn from scratch.
Do you have any advice?
Well first off, what's your musical background like?
Are you asking what experience I've had with music before?
Almost none. I sang in the male choir in highschool, and that was it.
Like I said, I'm learning from scratch.
Okay, well for starters you'll want to learn piano since that's what most programs are gunna be based around. You don't have to be great at playing it by any means but at least know what keys are what notes. (sidenote: What program are you using/planning to use?)
Also you should definitely learn some music theory. Again, you don't have to be Igor Stravinsky or anything but knowing scales, how chords work, and even stuff like relative majors and minors will only help you. I'm sure your local uni or community college has a basic theory or something of the sort, if you're attending school. There's also PLENTY of info online if you're not enrolled somewhere or would just rather give a little extra effort to avoid some cost.
Best of luck my up and coming musical kiwi!
