Writers Block!

I recently got back my M-Audio Recording Interface ..had loaned it to a friend for 2 weeks, it felt like 2 years. I was sooo glad to get it back

 

But now I've got a musical writers block ( I only compose toons, I don't write lyrics). I like what I've done in the past, but I have no inspiration right now. I'm trying different chord structures like a beginner would....A,D,E and repeat.

 

Do you get this? What do you do? I know it will get better, but for the time being I feel I'm in suspended animation. Hey there's something ...whack a suspended chord in somewhere.

 

It's frustration with a capital F!

Just start playing. It's a lot easier to edit notes than it is to stare at a blank piece of paper.

 

 

...yeah, that's the beauty of recording digital ....you can edit/add/remove FX post recording. Once recorded in analogue, that's it

When i'm really backed up i learn a new song or buy a bass style book like blues bass. You could try jamming with someone, that how i write all my stuff. Or you could go back and listen to some music you haven't heard in a while, that always gets me going. Or new stuff?

 

Or if you wanna be drastic you could not play for a while. Then when you get back to it, its so much better.
