Music theory, and experience. Also practice. Start with a scale, and use that to create a progression of chords. Then use those chords to make a baseline then work you melody off of the scale. If you have no idea what I just said well there's your problem, do you play any instruments? Piano can help you get a grasp of music. As far as the rhythm issue I have no idea, check to make sure your notes are in the right spaces. Basically 0 4 8 and C are your 4th notes. Hope that helped some

EDIT: Also looking at sav files can help you understand how certain melodies and sounds are made and work together
