Take a break from music....starve yourself from it(both listening and creating). I gaurantee that'll give you a spark.

Also if I feel like Im hitting a wall with creativity I'll dig into different music genres and try to discover music I never heard of to help inspire me.

 

[yes]

what helps me is Frank Sinatra and Jon B listen to the old albums its inspiration

you should just go on a vacation, a drive somewhere, and throw on some of your favorite music you like to listen to like the deele, babyface or pebbles or or maybe even usher or something. i'm not sure what you like to listen to but it will help refresh you.

For some reason watching beatmaking videos gets me motivated. But not just some wack ass dude...a industry cat or at least a really ill underground dude.

Take a week off away from music, and the following week, approach your creative process from a different angle, compose something different than your usual style, do something unique with your drum track, do something different. But, it's not a bad thing to take a break from the music, when you dive into it and it's all your doing, you can get caught up, if you take a week off, step back, and look at the big picture, listen to your work, critique it, find things you can do differently or better, and approach your next session with that in mind.

As composers/producers we are constantly reinventing ourselves, our sound, our quality, constantly, so your probably at a point where your creative growth needs to be stimulated or challenged, so, challenge yourself.

this website actually motivates me sometimes when i get no feedback from anybody. I almost feel like i gotta join a gang or something to get heard. lol
Thats what motivates me. And i cant wait for someone to piss me off or set up some tournament to where i can release my real shit. That will be beautiful.

other than that. Just step away from ur machine and dont force it.

 

[GHP]

sometimes i go a month without fucking with it, then i get back on it and put together some good stuff
