Like to write your own songs? Pretty good at lyrics and chords, verses and choruses but think your song is lacking a music element? Adding a riff is a great way to give your song more unique flavor, it can also make a song much more memorable. Smoke on the Water, Seven Nation Army, Crazy Train, I don't know all the lyrics to this songs, but I can sing the riff just fine!
Today, as you probably know by now, we are going to learn how to write or own riffs, but not just pluck a couple notes, we are going to learn how to take a chord progression, analyze the chord tones and the scale and use that information to create a riff that harmonizes with the chord progression, sounding professional, intentional and composed like a true musician!
