Well, whether you want it or not, there's an "official name" for pretty much every thing in music. It's a lot easier to refer to those names than say it the roundabout way.
You don't have to know theory to make music, but it makes it a lot easier if you do.
I might, what tuning?
anyone interested in making a really grim bm song ? I already have some stuff written but I need it to be even more grim
