Not sure if this thread has been made before, if it has, sorry for making the thread! I search and didn't find anything, so I figured i'd go ahead and make it.
Just as the title says, how do you personally go about starting to write and record a new song?
Personally, i'll mess around with different ideas and come up with a riff that I think is catchy on the guitar, and then program a drum beat that I figure would go well under the riff.
One or the other ends up changing a bit in the end, but then I just keep adding on different ideas and layers.
That's my basic starting point.
