The Steps For Making Your First Eurodance Song

Here I'm presenting 3 variants for making your first Eurodance song:


VARIANT 1

1. Hum a dance melody - keep humming until you find that special melody - this is usually the refrain

2. Put the melody on chords and rhythm

3. Build a riff/hook based on your melody or your melody's chords

4. Build the verses and bridge

5. Put them all together and give your song a form

6. Record your song

7. Mix and master it.


VARIANT 2

1. Build a nice dance music chord progression (bass and rhythm) - use a minor key (Am or Dm for example)

2. Try humming over and find a great melody

3. Build a riff/hook based on your melody or your melody's chords

4. Build the verses and bridge

5. Put them all together and give your song a form

6. Record your song

7. Mix and master it.
