Understanding Song Structure and Dynamics for Mixing

When young composers are mixing their music, it’s really important to think about song structure and dynamics. Here’s how these ideas can help them make great choices:

1. Understanding Song Structure:

   • Start by dividing the song into different parts, like verses, choruses, and bridges.
   • Each part might need different levels of sound. For example, the chorus usually needs to be louder than the verse to stand out.

2. Dynamics:

   • Dynamics are about how soft or loud the music is. These changes help decide how to mix the song.
   • If a verse is soft, make sure the singer’s voice is clear. When it’s time for the chorus, it can be fuller and have more layers.

By focusing on these parts, young composers can make their music sound better and more interesting!
