Turn a feeling into a playable song sketch—with chords, melody, and bass. No music theory required.

Start

No theory needed

Start with a feeling.

You do not need to know a key, chord, or tempo yet. Tell us what you are reaching for and we will set the table.

1. What are you trying to make?
2. How should it sound?
3. How much energy?
4. How much room?
5. How should the chords move?

Choose a feeling to begin.

Fine-tune the music settings

These are optional. The starting guide will choose them for you.

Your musical home

C is the home note

Home chord Cmaj7 Made from C · E · G · B

Because C is home, the other recommended chords are chosen by how they lead away from or back to C.

Major and minor: Major often feels more open and hopeful. Minor often feels more reflective and tense. The chord order, tempo, melody, and rhythm can reshape either one.

Make it your own

Shape your progression.

These are the chords that naturally fit the musical starting point created above.

What are the small symbols?

They are music shorthand for each chord's role. You can ignore them for now and choose by ear.

Guided editing

Where should it go next?

You do not need to choose the next chord yourself. Tell us what you want to feel more strongly and we will suggest one change.

05

Beginner melody

Find a melody.

Each bar offers three notes that safely fit its chord. Choose by ear—there is no wrong order to try them.

Build a chord progression first.

06

Low-end foundation

Add a bass line.

Bass gives the music weight. We will follow the lowest note of each chord, so every note fits automatically.
