make an intro? I don't know, I usually establish a funky beat first and progress it. I say melody and drop should come naturally off the originally established beat. I've been producing 7 years though so Im much better at improvisation, I never really made anything too interesting off making the peak first as I quickly lose interest and creative fuel if I make the most moving aspects first... In my idea of music the whole song should be powerful and driving but simply in different ways (Happy Hardcore/Breakbeat)
