Tino Coury Approaches Each Song Differently

The third episode from Tino Coury’s “My Life” series features the pop singer in the studio working with Adonis on a new track.

“The process of writing a song I think is really different every time,” Tino explains in the video. “Sometimes I’ll hear a track, and if I love the track I’ll start humming the melodies over it, writing lyrics, and thinking of different concepts. Sometimes I’ll have the concept and lyrics already in my head and I’ll kind of construct the music around that, so I think I approach each song differently.”
