Joining us this week from Germany is Friedemann Findeisen - an award winning songwriter and producer, and founder of Holistic Songwriting, the most complete collection of commercial songwriting techniques on the web.

Highlights:

• On songwriting techniques and music theory: “It doesn’t help you to have a toolbox if you don’t know how to use the tools” - Friedemann Findeisen
• Friedemann shares that almost every songwriting rule has a counter argument, so you can really do anything in songwriting
• “There are no rules in songwriting - it depends on the effect you want to achieve” - Friedemann Findeisen
• We talk about using classical music theory as an analytical tool rather than a creative tool
• Friedemann shares some common mistakes he sees songwriters making in their careers
• We hear what holistic songwriting means to Friedemann, and how taking the holistic approach can benefit songwriters
