Hey guys, so I am making trap beats and on my keyboard I always find it easy to play some first like a melody or a chord progression but then I can't really add anything else to it and get it to "follow" without sounding boring I suppose. I have been taking some music theory classes online which has greatly increased my skills and understanding but whenever I make something I like I can never add something else to it and make it follow along with the beat. I guess I am better trying to understand the harmony of things? Sometimes I hear beats where a melody is repeating over and over and other instruments like the bass have a progression they are following and sometimes I hear stuff that sounds very cohesive. Any advice? Thanks alot!
