arpeggios
i'm way better at writing arpeggios that sound good than i was one year ago
i've had this start of a song in my head for literal years--at least 3, probably more at this point, and i'm finally at the point where i can start writing it and feel satisfied with how it's turning out... because of the arpeggio that goes under the main piano riff
it took me years to write enough music to finally figure out what the fuck that arpeggio in my head was and now it's out
