This article from Native Instruments provides a comprehensive guide on how to write an effective chorus for a song. It offers several key tips for crafting an effective chorus:

  1. Write concise, impactful lyrics that convey the song’s core message, using strong imagery and repetition.
  2. Create a catchy melody by keeping it simple, experimenting with rhythm, finding a memorable hook, and incorporating harmonies.
  3. Blend melody and lyrics cohesively, starting with a clear concept or emotion and allowing time for experimentation.
  4. Arrange the instrumental parts to enhance the chorus, such as adding or removing layers, writing harmonies, or introducing new rhythmic elements.

The guide stresses the importance of balancing melody, lyrics, and emotion to create a compelling chorus that stands out from the verses and anchors the song.
