Composing..

[McYaballow]

Hi

I've never composed music before, but my question is which is more logical to do first: Making chords for your song, or the melody?

Try both and see which works better for you.

Determine things like the key sig first. When you have that, wether you find a chord progression that sounds good, or a little melody hook first, doesen't matter.
