How on earth do you compose music?
Looking around I’ve gathered I’m not the only one who’s not a music expert. I’ve dabbled a bit in playing musical instruments in my time. When it comes to composing game music however I’m totally at a loss.
Does anyone know any good 101 beginners guides to making simple melodies or fun little tunes? I just want to be able to make a basic happy tune and sad tune with very little complexity or depth.
If that’s not something that can really be found then perhaps some advice from participants in the past?
