Explore, Progress,
Discover
I built ComposerDeck because I believe music creation should be fun. About exploring, progressing, and discovering new paths you wouldn't have tested otherwise.
The Story Behind ComposerDeck
It started with a challenge from a musician friend. We gave each other random musical constraints and created under pressure. What surprised us wasn't how perfect the results were—it was how fun it was. How liberated we felt. We stopped questioning every decision and just played. That experiment showed us both something important: creativity thrives when you embrace exploration and curiosity.
Like most musicians, I'd fallen into patterns. Doing the same things, using the same techniques, stuck in comfortable routines that weren't moving me forward. I realized I needed something to shake things up—not to create perfect songs, but to discover new territories and keep progressing through experimentation.
When I couldn't find a tool that captured this philosophy, I built ComposerDeck myself. Over the past year, I've refined this idea through constant iteration. Every challenge card is designed to do one thing: push you into unexplored creative territory while keeping the experience playful and inspiring.
Mission
I believe creativity should be driven by curiosity and experimentation. ComposerDeck exists to be your creative playground—the place where you explore fearlessly, progress naturally, and discover paths you wouldn't have found on your own.
Every musician gets stuck in patterns. We do what we know works. We repeat what's comfortable. Real progress comes from trying new things, from constraint and curiosity, from venturing into unfamiliar territory. My tool is designed to do exactly that—to inspire exploration and help you discover your next creative direction.
Whether you're just starting your journey or you're a seasoned professional, I've designed this to help you experiment, progress, and find new creative paths.
For Beginners
Explore music theory and composition through playful challenges that make learning feel like creative play, not study.
For Professionals
Break free from your habits. Progress through exploration and experimentation.
What I Stand For
Three principles guide everything I do with ComposerDeck:
Curiosity Over Comfort
The best growth happens when you venture into unfamiliar territory. Every challenge is an invitation to explore something new.
Progress Through Experimentation
You don't progress by repeating what you already know. Real growth comes from trying new things and discovering unexpected paths.
Community & Shared Discovery
The best part of music is sharing it and learning from others. Your experiments and creative journey will inspire everyone.
Looking Forward
ComposerDeck started as a personal challenge with a friend—a way to keep exploring and progressing as a musician. It's evolved into something I'm truly passionate about. I'm constantly expanding the challenge database, building new features, and listening to the community.
Major features are now live: the Analysis page explores the challenge database, Community Submissions let musicians share their challenges and inspire others with their audio submissions.
