i don't know why. i don't have any inspiration at all for music, and whenever i try to write something it comes out terrible.
i guess it may be the losing streak i've had lately - with crazy fungus records closing and my works going out of print, to unanswered demos and not winning remix contests / landing on comps, etc.
i just feel drained - like i don't feel anything lately.

that and the fact that dallaslocalmusicscene never put up those reviews drains me too.

ou just need a good ass-kissing. I love your music and your avatar, and remember, I love your username. I love your Ninja Gaiden remix and I wish you'd do some more NES related music.
I guess Seasonal Affective Disorder is in full swing, everybody's feeling down and out lately here!

you seem to produce music by the hour - I could never work as fast as you do.
could be that you need to take some time off from musicmaking, nothing wrong with that.

Your luck will change. But you just have to let it. Dwelling on bad luck only keeps it coming. The worst thing you can do is sit in front of your machines trying to force inspiration. You should go for a walk by yourself, smoke a few cigarettes and soak up the Magical Autumn vibe. Always works for me. :)

ehhh, this might sound kinda bad, but it works, if you haven't had a drink in a long time try drinking alot, it kills off all the old brain cells or some shit and you might wake up feeling on the ball and more um, more perceptive and quick, they did a study on this, how professors don't have the edge they did when they were undergrads and drank on the weekends, just a thought

why thank you ophecks - i have been wanting to work on some more video game music - actually, i'm working on an album that is nothing BUT video game-oriented music, a new concept album that tells a story. send me a mailing address if you'd like to hear.
qrter - yes maybe you're right. perhaps i should just let the creative gears cool for a while.
KADO - been doing this and it's helping me relax. good point about trying to force inspiration though - never works for me anyways.
AlfredPMcLovely - i drink fairly heavily on Friday nights, so i've killed plenty of braincells. however i try not to drink too much, and i really don't like drinking a lot.

i know what you're talkin' about big guy. it happens after every track i make. sometimes two, if i'm lucky. but yeah. i'm thinking if i had some illegal substances i'd be having more fun. music or no.

i'm beginning to feel even more drained. four hours a dance party with me and me and nobody and me, a lot of nonsense rambling and a crazy phone conversation with my mother later i'm wearing thin like an old t-shirt. i mean...sure i'm still cozy comfortable and damn good lookin'. but jsut a little blah. i've even seen scores of vegetables with more life (hee hah hoo huh? nothing).

think of it liek this: record deals, reviews, albums: none of these things matter none of these things effect the music you make music is music music is not a record deal
I'm NOT having a shot at you, that's just the way i think about music and if these things are getting you down, it might be like...some kind of food for thought, i dunno.
sorry i if offended you.
:D
BUT these things pass, man, just go and od other stuff if you're having trouble with tracks, ifyou feel stale just do new things
this applies to everything i can think of
