The human ear can only focus on three distinct elements – use them wisely.
Ex: drums, chord, melody. Rotate elements to use the rule of three. Many elements combine so they are not considered distinct. ex: chords and a bassline that follows the root note of each chord. Listen to how pop song swap vocal leads for instrumental leads. Listen to EDM for examples of less than three elements are used for maximum impact
