Hi Joe,

I would suggest getting out of your comfort zone. You have learned a lot of songs and licks so just start there but put your own style to it. Another words just jam until something clicks, Note that is how most of my songs start!

Pick a BiaB style you are familiar with first then jam with it. Then move on to styles that are out of your comfort zone.

I have posted songs out of my comfort zone and some responses were you should do that more often. What I didn't post are the many failed attempts to get to a post quality, in my opinion anyway, song.

Another thing I have done is to input chords and have the melodist generate a lead. Then I take a section or two out of that lead and make a song out of it.

Learn the pentatonic scale and start jamming from them. There are books and video on how to play and generate leads from that scale. In fact when I was teaching I started my students jamming and composing started with the pentatonic scale.

I hope this helps.

The labels have to be changed from "open here" to "open at home"
