Songwriting Foundations
From blank page to finished song
A five-module, self-paced course that takes you from a blank page to a finished song you're proud to play for someone. Video lesson and printable workbook in every module, with practice you can do in twenty minutes a day.

Module 1 · 4 lessons
Starting on purpose
Most songs die in the first ten minutes. This module gives you four reliable ways in, so a session never depends on inspiration showing up.
· The seed: one line, one riff, one feeling
· Title-first writing
· Loop-first writing
· Writing yourself a brief
Module 2 · 4 lessons
Harmony that moves
Chords are not decoration. This module is about motion — where a progression is pulling and how to make it pull harder.
· Home, away, and the way back
· Let the bass write the chords
· One borrowed chord, used well
· Loops that don't get boring
Module 3 · 4 lessons
Melody people can sing
Range, shape and repetition. The craft behind a melody that sticks after one listen and survives being sung badly.
· Set your range before you sing
· Melodic shape: arc, stair, plateau
· Repetition is the hook
· Prosody: stress the right syllable
Module 4 · 4 lessons
Lyrics that tell the truth
Specific over poetic. This module is about detail, restraint, and cutting the lines you're proudest of.
· Specific beats poetic
· Point of view and the person you're talking to
· Verse, pre, chorus: what each one owes you
· Cut the line you love most
Module 5 · 4 lessons
Finishing and sharing
Arrangement decisions, a demo you can stand behind, and a definition of 'done' you can actually use.
· Arrangement as dynamics, not layers
· A demo good enough to judge
· Asking for useful feedback
· Calling it done
One payment of $79, lifetime access. You'll sign in first.
Four weeks of guided listening that turn 'I can hear something is happening' into 'I know what that chord is'. Fifteen minutes a day, a video lesson and printable drill log in every module, and a pass mark you can actually measure yourself against.

Module 1 · 4 lessons
Week one — hearing in context
Interval flashcards teach you to compare two notes. Music never gives you two notes. This week sets up the drone method so every note you hear has a home to be measured against.
· The drone: your reference point
· Scale degrees before interval names
· Stable, unstable, and where it wants to go
· Building the fifteen-minute rep
Module 2 · 4 lessons
Week two — chord quality
Major, minor, dominant, diminished, sus — and the borrowed chords that make a song sound like it means something.
· The four triads, heard cold
· Sevenths and the colour they add
· Which note is on the bottom
· Spotting the chord from outside the key
Module 3 · 4 lessons
Week three — progressions and bass motion
Chords rarely arrive alone. This week is about hearing the shape of a whole progression, and using the bass as the handrail.
· Hearing in numbers, not letters
· Follow the bass first
· Cadences: how phrases end
· Your first full transcription
Module 4 · 4 lessons
Week four — melody and playback
The payoff week: hear a line once, sing it back, then find it on your instrument without hunting.
· Sing it before you play it
· Contour memory
· Getting the rhythm right too
· Keeping the ears you built

Four modules on the craft of the lyric: image, point of view, structure and revision. You'll leave with a working method for turning what you actually mean into lines a listener can see, and the nerve to cut the ones that don't earn their place.

Module 1 · 4 lessons
Image before adjective
Listeners feel what they can see. This module trades the vocabulary of emotion for the vocabulary of things.
· Write what a camera could film
· Four senses beyond sight
· Proper nouns and small numbers
· One image, held
Module 2 · 4 lessons
Who's talking, and to whom
Point of view is the single fastest fix for a lyric that feels vague. Decide the speaker, the listener, and the distance between them.
· I, you, she — and what each costs
· Emotional distance and time
· Direct address changes everything
· Writing as someone who isn't you
Module 3 · 4 lessons
Structure that carries meaning
Form is not decoration. Where information arrives decides whether a song builds or idles.
· Verse one, verse two, and what changed
· The chorus is the thesis
· Pre-chorus as pressure
· The bridge must turn
Module 4 · 4 lessons
Revision without flattening
Most finished lyrics are third drafts. This is how to cut hard while keeping what made the first draft alive.
· Read it cold, out loud
· Rhyme serves the line, never the reverse
· Cut the first line and the last
· The finished-enough test

Four modules that take a song from a bedroom take to a mix that holds up in a car, on a phone and in headphones. Written for one room, one interface and one microphone — not for a studio you don't have.

Module 1 · 4 lessons
The room and the little rig
Before you buy anything, fix what's free: placement, distance, and the noise you stopped noticing.
· Where to stand, and why it matters more than gear
· Two blankets beat one panel
· The noise floor you've gone deaf to
· Interface, gain staging, sample rate
Module 2 · 4 lessons
Tracking takes worth keeping
Performance is production. This module is about capturing a take you don't have to rescue.
· Vocals: distance, angle, and one pop filter
· Acoustic guitar without the boom
· Click tracks and when to ignore them
· Three passes, then stop
Module 3 · 4 lessons
Editing that keeps the feel
Tidy the mistakes, leave the humanity. Over-edited records are the most common home-studio failure.
· Comping without seams
· Tighten to the feel, not the grid
· Pitch correction as retouching
· Breaths, chairs and clean starts
Module 4 · 4 lessons
A mix that translates
A repeatable order of operations, three reference checks, and an export you can send without apologising.
· Balance, then EQ, then compression
· Carving space with subtraction
· Reverb and delay as distance
· Reference, master, export

Four modules on the melody side of songwriting: contour, hooks, phrasing and variation. You'll learn why some lines stick after one listen and others evaporate, and build a repeatable way to find, shape and stress-test a hook before you commit to it.

Module 1 · 4 lessons
Contour: the shape of a line
A melody is a shape before it's a set of notes. This module teaches you to draw the shape first and let the notes serve it.
· The arch: up, peak, down
· Leaps cost, steps are free
· Range is a budget
· Come home less often
Module 2 · 4 lessons
Hooks: small and repeatable
A hook is a two-bar promise. This module is about finding one, proving it, and refusing to bury it.
· The two-bar cell
· Rhythm before pitch
· Marry the hook to the title
· The repetition test
Module 3 · 4 lessons
Phrasing: where the breath goes
The same melody, phrased differently, is a different song. This module is about singing behind, across and against the beat.
· Leave the downbeat alone
· Rests are part of the melody
· Sing how people speak
· Syncopation as tension
Module 4 · 4 lessons
Variation: same song, new light
Repetition makes a melody familiar; variation keeps it alive. The craft is changing one thing at a time.
· Change one note, not ten
· Answer in a different octave
· The last-chorus lift
· The stress test

Advanced Discover Chords & Scales
Discover taught you the shape of a key. Advanced Discover is about voicings: the same chords played so they lead into each other, and the same key heard from every degree.

· Borrowing one chord
· Voicing density by genre

· Keeping an error log that pays
· Transposing the puzzle
