    Writing music is just putting down notes into patterns along with notation on how they should be played, either by a person or by a computer using a virtual instrument.

    Producing music is just writing music plus stuff like mixing & mastering. Which sounds simple on theory, but it means that producers are required to have some level of understanding of both music theory and electronics. From personal experience, having a physics degree has unironically helped me learn music production faster than I probably otherwise would've lol.
