Are there times you decide to finish a song from the list and use other snippets to piece it all together? Or do you prefer each idea to be separate of the others?
in my experience, combining songs is not a good strategy. each song has its own very unique needs and it is important to consider exactly what that song needs in order to make it the strongest song. combining 2 halfwritten songs would be kind of like combining 2 half built houses and hoping it makes sense. although i suppose it may work for some people, and i think that's great. the last time i revealed here that i don't combine songs someone got mad at me. so it is important to emphasize the fact that other people may have success in doing that but it is not something that i think makes sense for me
