that's how it is when i listen to my friends music or aphex's.
it's like it really inspires me to go out and try and become a musician but at the same thime makes me feel like i never will be as good as him and will never make something as good as him.

i go through these phases... they are aweful... of hating all my music, and not being able to write anything
its truely the most aweful feeling in the world...
im going through it now
it comes and goes... and i dont know what brings it on, or gets rid of it.
But then once its gone, ill make a song and be very pleased and happy, and i can conquer the world kinda thing...
but right now im goin nuts with frusteration
arg!
its like manic depression

on the days when you feel like that, you should take a break from it. go a day or two without making any tunes; that's what i do. i got through the same thing--all musician's do, i think.
take a walk or a drive or something. have sex or maybe watch an intense movie; get that creative blood pumping again... then go back to your stuff.

i always have 'writer's block' aswell. I get a stage where no ideas come into my head, and nothing sounds good and i just want to delete everything!
"manic depression is touching my soul"
What usually gets me out of it is listening to music quite late at night, while mucking about on my guitar with a pen and note pad at hand to write down any ideas that come to me.
Or i just dont try and make music for a few days. its really annoying when u've got to make a piece for school but you just have no inspiration at all.

Boards of Canada are amazing!! Geogaddi fucking blows my mind!! It's so good, and deep... there's so much sound there, but it all works together to create this beautiful piece of music... I CANNOT WAIT FOR MORE BOARDS OF CANADA!!
