If you have been producing music for quite some time, there must be a point that you lack of ideas or you do not know what to do with the ideas you had. It is called the creative blocks.
What are creative blocks?
Creative blocks, or barriers to inspirations, are often described as the inability to access one’s creativity. It can last days, weeks or even months.
Today I will discuss with you about the ways to get over creative bocks.
1. Take a break
Have a rest from producing or else you will be frustrated. In my opinion, one of the worst things to do when you have creative blocks is to continue working with your idea.
Clear your head. Have a rest. Stay away from music production for a few days to enjoy life.
You will be feeling more fresh and filled with ideas after taking the essential break.
2. Explore other genre
Inspiration can come from anywhere even if it is from other style of music.
Each genre has its own speciality.
You may learn new skills or techniques while listening to new style of music that you have never thought of.
Sometimes, you are just tired making the style of music over and over again.
3. Go out and exercise
You have been working out your mind for a long period of time. Now, it is time for you to work out your body as well.
People used to say that healthy body leads to healthy mind.
Have a jog at a park or hit the gym to have good session helps you to clear your mind and feel better.
Once you feel better, you will perform better.
4. Have a collaboration
Every music producer has their own secret tips and tricks which make their tracks sound unique.
Having a collaboration gives you the chance to learn new tips and tricks which may help you in gathering new inspirations.
Those tips and tricks maybe the keys to help you to create the next banger in dance community. Who knows?
5. Focus on other things
There are really a lot of aspects that make up a good track besides writing the song.
Here are some other things that you can focus on while you are having creative blocks:
- Sound design (design your own presets)
- Drum design (design your own drum shots)
- Plugins (learn new synthesizer or effect plugin)
- Mixing and Mastering
- Song Marketing Strategies
- Building Social Media
In conclusion, creative blocks are the most annoying things that can happen to us musicians. I hope that these 5 tips are helpful enough in aiding you to get over creative blocks.
