Hi.
I am planning to write an educational series on creating music in my "graal blog". So feel free to check that out here:

Over a period of time I will cover a lot of topics. I implore you to ask me any questions you're curious about and I will cover those in future entries (along with answering your question when you ask it). The first lesson is basically a history, and a telling of how I learned how to write music...
The next lesson will probably cover something like "How to create melodies and harmonies" and maybe a bit of video help with navigating and writing MIDI in FL Studio. Good luck and thanks for reading!
