The principle of Space in songwriting

How do you ensure your song isn't too overwhelming for your audience? How do you make sure your listener has time to reflect on what they're hearing from you? The principle of Space in songwriting is all about using silence and pauses to create moments of reflection, letting your music breathe and your message resonate more deeply.

In this video, we'll explore:

  • How space can shape the emotional impact of your song.

  • The role of silence in engaging your audience and inviting them into the music.

  • Practical ways to incorporate space for a more intentional and dynamic composition.

Providing space in your music isn't just about what you play -- it's about what you don't play. Thoughtful use of silence allows your listeners to connect with your song on a deeper level, making them active participants in the experience.
