Make something you would actually play for a friend.

  1. Finish the step above first
    01

    Make the lazy song

    You will make TWO songs today. This first one is the lazy way.

    Tap Copy. Open Suno. Paste the words. Press Create. Wait a bit.

    You just made a song by doing almost nothing. Keep it. We come back to it.

    Open Suno (new tab)
    a fun upbeat song about skateboarding

    What is YOUR song about?

    That first one was the robot guessing. This one is you.

    Pick one real thing. A bad day. Someone you miss. Your dog. A crush. Where you live. NOT skateboarding, unless that is truly your thing.

  3. Finish the step above first
    03

    Bring what YOU love

    The robot does not know your taste. You do. That is your power.

    Name 3 songs or artists you love right now.

  4. Finish the step above first
    04

    Find what is catching on

    Tap Copy. Open ChatGPT. Paste it. Read the answer.

    The words already tell the robot to teach you like a real producer would.

    Open ChatGPT (new tab)
    You are a friendly music producer helping a kid make their first song. In very simple words, tell me 3 music styles or sounds that are popular right now and why people like them - one short sentence each, no slang I have to look up. Then ask me which one I want to try.
  5. Finish the step above first
    05

    Pick a pro trick

    A trick is a MOVE your song does - like a beat drop or a repeat. It is NOT the hook (the hook is the next step).

    Open the trick list in the new tab, read them, and pick ONE to use.

    Open the trick list (new tab)
  6. Finish the step above first
    06

    Write your hook

    Your hook is the ONE line people sing back - the catchy part. It is NOT the trick; the trick is a move, the hook is a line.

    Tap Copy (your own stuff is already inside it), paste it in ChatGPT, and it writes you 3 hooks.

    Open ChatGPT (new tab)
    You are a hit songwriter helping a beginner. Keep it simple and catchy, and make it sound like ME, not generic. I love [loves]. My song is about [topic]. I am using this trick: [trick]. Write me 3 short hooks, two lines each, that I could actually sing. After each one, say in one simple sentence why it works. Then ask me to pick my favorite.

    Pick your sound

    Suno needs to know the sound. Copy this, then swap the blanks for YOUR words.

    [genre], [happy or angry or sad], [fast or slow], with [instrument]

    Make the REAL song

    Open Suno. Paste your recipe. Press Create.

    THIS one has your taste, your words, your trick. This one is YOURS.

    Play both. Feel it.

    Play the lazy song. Now play your song.

    One is the same nothing everybody makes. One is YOURS.

    Ship it

    A song nobody hears is a secret. Post it. Tag it. Show the class.

    Tap Copy for your caption, post your song online, then put it on the class wall below.

    I made this with my own taste, not just a robot. #Glunty

You made something that is YOURS.

That is the whole point of this place. Not the same nothing everyone else makes - YOUR thing. Do it again with a comic, a story, a whole app. You are the operator now.
