I have a really hard time with all of the things listed in the title, Can I get some advice and general tips and tricks to making all of those things? Preforably in the house-y trancy style.
Please and Thanks!
EDIT: I should have been more clear in the original post, Sorry about that.

For example purposes. It's really WIP, and I think it sounds like shit. (ITS SO EMPTY ;~;)
1. Leads
I have such a hard time coming up with a lead, Whats it suppose to sound like? What goes into making it? Where does it go in a song?
2. Melodies
Same as above: What goes into make them, What are they supposed to sound like etc
3. Bass
Jesus, Everyone tells me bass is simple and easy, but I have a hard time with it. Again, What goes into making it, what separates it from subbass?
4. Subbass
Same as bass, only flipped around at the "What separates it from subbass" part.
I know a song needs all of these things, I just happen to suck ass at making all of them. Without them, my song sounds empty. How should all of those things sound in a house song? Questions! Questions everywhere!
