I need help!
Theres just a lot of things I cant seem to grasp. That is, how to pick the right instruments, how to tie kicks with bass, bass with melody, how to correctly use scales and chord progression...

I thought I should take another approach to learning this and that would be through reading.
What book would help me out here?

I didn't see this before sorry...

here's an article based on a post I wrote about this very subject, it's long...  sorry.

Lol thats the article I read and its what got me to post this.
I was just looking for more insight before I did so.

Which one do you think would help me the most?
Im thinking Principles of Orchestration?
