What up FP?
I've been working a lot on song arrangement lately and was looking for advice in therms of key changes.
So when changing keys is it more practical to make a key change during the verse, say first 8 bars in one key and then last 8 bars of the verse go up key?
Or maybe leave the verse in one key and maybe have the hook played a key higher?
Also when changing keys to add interest, what is a good suggestion?
To move up one key? so from C to D or maybe a fifth C to G?
Can anything give some rule of thumbs guidelines to doing this? I know there are few boundaries in music, but just to get me started.
