Hi guys back here again the fourth time. 

How To Learn Songs From Recordings


In this video I have a song that I was coming up with and I dont know how to go about getting it started. And in this video he suggest to

1. Listen to a song

2.Try to listen to the bass and try singing the bass line

3.Try to play the bass line on the guitar or piano

4.Write the melody on top of the bass line

5.Try to figure out what the chord isnt try whether it is a maj min aug or dim

6. When you write out bass notes their often the root of a chord


With all that being said I have a bass line I came up with but Im having a hard time putting the melody together. Like I know the melody has to to be on top of the bass line.


With all that being said here's how my bass line look:
