Thanks for the extra explanation! When you said dissonance I thought of even more far out sounds. I feel like the term gets used very different from context to context. Yeah both techniques can make some pretty nifty melodies when used at the right place.
I noticed with Samulis somewhat Cantus Firmus inspired method, while it's loads of fun exploring the different ways, that I kind of forget to build in pauses, and always have something playing on the one of the bar because thats where the new chord starts. Syncopation and the melody being a little bit stuffed is kind of what happens, but I think I can work on that being aware of it.
