Q: Oh my gosh your answer to my question about time signatures was amazing! Thank you! Another music theory question... is it better to "think" in different keys when writing music, or is it better to just start with chord relationships in a familiar key then transpose to a key that fits the emotion better? I have a hard time breaking out of C major.
A: that should work fine. Using different keys might enrich your brain in some ways, but it's not a deal breaker. similar to brushing your teeth with a different hand. it does enrich the brain to do this but, doing it with the same hand will not cause any harm
