Real question: How do any of you actually finish songs? It's something I always struggle with. I often find myself just writing a section and then listening back to it over and over for the enjoyment of it with no idea or drive to add to it. Just me?

When writing professionally thereβs no way out but to finish. Give yourself a deadline of 1-2 days max. When you get an idea down for a section, start working on the next section. Who cares if itβs not the greatest, you only get better when you finish over and over again

Bounce your song to audio stems and remix it

I feel this. I've been pushing myself more recently to get out of loop mode, extend the arrangement, and begin purposefully stripping away/adding parts and automation. If I listen to any thing for too long, I get attached and the longer I do this it becomes harder to want to alter anything...

I follow a structure of what feels right- could be verse chorus verse bridge chorus - but taking the existing music and making it ebb and flow throughout the song

Depends what kind of music youβre making, but Iβve noticed speed and not worrying too much really helps. Limit the tracks, limit the plugins, sends, fx, options and go for βgood enoughβ. Mix fast. Leave it a day or two and see what pops out to fix, but by this point itβs more just tweaking than actual work.

I have a strategy for this. Once you have a loop you like - pull up a couple tracks in a similar style β pull them into your session. If in Ableton make them the same tempo and key. Now copy your favorite ones arrangement (use it as a map).

A lot of producers are struggling with.. But it's good to come back to a rudimental track after a long time with fresh ideas and a different ear π

Some solid advice I got was this: do not export your music while youβre working on it. Only listen to the song youβre making while youβre actually making it. I used to export unfinished music and binge listen until I grew tired of it π but now only listening to the song in the actual project file has helped!

Finishing music is like refining a muscle. Itβs a self reinforcing act. The opposite is also true. Force finish things!
