I write, record and produce music in my spare time... I was told Я пишу музыку by one of my lecturers, but Писать means to write, right? Any suggestions for a word to use, or different ways to say it?

Yes писать is a right word, because you write down the notes to the paper. If you compose music then say - Я сочиняю музыку.
Я музыкант, и кое-что сочиняю сам - I am a musician? and even compose something myself.
I record some music I play and compose myself- я записываю кое-какую музыку, которую сам сочиняю и играю.
But the phrase "я пишу музыку" is very good to say that you are a composer.
Я пишу музыку is perfect.Quote:

The verb "писать" has more than one meaning. The first one is 'to to form letters, numbers etc. with a pen, pencil, or sth else', you're right. :D
You can say "писать музыку" or "сочинять музыку".
