How do you learn to play the keyboard or music in general?
I’m a guy who makes freeware games with tools such as MultiMedia Fusion (www.clickteam.com). I am able to do both graphics and coding. However, I don’t know how to make music. Usually, I’d try to find someone online who is good at this and ask them but a lot of times people will make music that doesn’t really match the type of game I’m making. Therefore, I want to make my own music.
But, how do you learn to do this? Anytime I go anywhere near a keyboard I end up just making random noise. I have no sense of rhythm or anything. I once knew a guy online who was able to make music on anything. He’d send me music that he made on the SNES game Mario Paint. He was even able to make music on programs such as ModPlug tracker that requires you to input each note by hand. I tried to ask him how he learned to do this but he told me that he never took any music lessons or anything.
I want to have this sort of skill, or atleast be able to play music on a keyboard. How do I learn to do this?
Is there any sort of classes or lessons for this type of stuff? I’m mostly interested in digital music formats such as MIDI, not classical stuff.
