Simplicity VS ComplexWhen we’re in the studio making music, we are 100% focused on our song. This allows us tocomprehend more complicated musical ideas. However, music is rarely consumed in this way. It’soften heard in the background whilst another activity is the main focus. Think about the context inwhich your music will be heard. If you’re making a pop track for radio play, the genre and contextcall for more simple and accessible musical ideas. If you’re composing a classical piece that will beperformed in front of a silent audience, the genre and context allow for more complexity.Keep the genre and context in mind when creating your hooks. Try to conceptualise the listenersperspective when you’re in the studio to direct your melody writing.
