  • Step away, play a different instrument, or try out one of the many apps I've bought but haven't used are what I do.

    I buy something expensive. Think I have been in three creative music funks in my life and it worked every time.

    I do not recommend this to everyone, but for a certain personality type, which includes me, this works like a charm. Retail therapy when used responsibly is a hell of a mood lifter.

    Ussualy my funks mostly meant I have exhausted all options along a certain avenue and am tired of the production limitations that I can mostly buy my way out of. Tricks, workarounds, excessive elbow grease can only be entertained for so long.

    What are some tips for getting out of a music funk? I’ve been in a bit of a rut this year with work stress and getting the new house set up. I’m hoping to start getting back into music but I’m not finding inspiration. I have some things started that are outside of my usual style but I’m having difficulties getting them beyond an 8 bar loop.

    I think Riffer is quite good at creating bass lines/melodies - you might just need some 'randomness' to get going.

  • This is how.

  • I Mix up my approach. If I haven’t used samples in awhile or a certain app in awhile, or a daw, or, whatever, I use that to get a fresh perspective. I approach a track in a different way. Or write/play it on the guitar first. Instead of using my preferred AUM workflow. Or I learn some covers on guitar, forget about creating and just jam.

    I was going to say same thing as some others. Change up your process. Try using different tools or apps, especially on iOS that you don't have/use, or haven't used in a while. Depending on the creative block, use some tools for inspiration or use them as a starting point for your own exploration.

  • Play an immersive video game with the sound effects on, but the music OFF.

    Then have a midi controller in front of you connected to your synth/instrument of choice. Mix game sound effect audio with your synth audio; monitor with headphones.

    Now play the game as normal, but during breaks and cutscenes, play your instrument. Maybe you’ll have a latched arp running, or a sequenced part during a mega-boss battle. Imagine you’ve been tasked with writing the soundtrack for the game!

    Might be a way to generate some ideas at least.

  • I guess it depends on time availability too. Perhaps feeling pushed to achieve something because you have time now and not later. Anyways, just sitting down and do whatever I feel like gives me a lot of space. Watch any of the tutorials of the many YouTube subscriptions usually has me opening up some app or another to try out what they’re trying to convey. Or I end up watching videos on how to make pizza dough. Or pizza ovens. Also fine. Open another music video. Or open Facebook and have Spotify playing your favorite music, or something out of your usual interest. Have a project playing while checking your emails.
    Good luck!
