Something I forgot to add: take breaks.

Been suffering writers block for years now or atleast I thought until now, this did really shatter my thoughts about the writes block! Talk about the timing! Thanks man!

[furious_beast]

Instead of saying i have writers block, try think of it as a challenge to be more creative in that moment, thats what helps me

[EONN_BLUE]

I can't tell you how many times i've started a song then been like "nah this aint the one" but push through and finish it, even though i dont really like it, but then something happens and it all comes together towards the end and then I love it all the sudden and thank myself for not deleting it.

You might be a top 5 music production youtuber right now bro, loving this kind of content

Sometimes you feel less creative (things just don't work out...) and that's ok bro. Main thing is to stay emotionally calm in these periods and give yourself some grace. These are actually great opportunities to invest time in studying and learning new stuff. Once you find the spark again you'll be on a whole nother level ✌

My personal technique for learning is to make mini-songs with lyrics based on private jokes we have with my friends on discord.
Then I play them at unexpected moments to make them laugh!

It stimulates my creativity and makes me want to produce more and more haha

Came to learn about writer's block but ended up getting a life lesson instead

[eren]

for me i have ideas but i have the fear to f it up so i don’t even start it. i know weird. i think most people are like that, not lack of ideas or something else. it’s basically anxiety.

[godlyone]

Brother you are so right, every time I think about this I try something different and it works there is no block to our creativity and producing just try and try until it feels right

[DJ-JayKo]

Really mature and sensible talk. This rings a bell a lot, especially as a starting producer, it's always easier to focus on other things or distracting yourself, rather than actually putting in the work. Super great advice. Thanks for the wake up.

[zayxbeats]

love when someone can put the feeling of "resistence" into words the way you do.

Broooo, I literally came here to look for this vid and it was uploaded 13 seconds ago lmao ❤❤❤❤

This channel is gold man. Thank you so much for everything, I feel a lot more motivated to make music thanks to you 🙏
Also, if it feels like you're stuck at writing songs, maybe try designing some sounds. For me it worked really good, I designed some random sound and immediately came up with a song idea. Maybe this helps others too.
Thanks again!

Thank you Akayo,
This wasn’t just a producing advice but a life advice. 🤝

Honest feedback on the editing and whatnot:
I love how you keep switching from you just sitting and talking to like, different scenes with your friends. I also like how you switch to emphasizing a few key words on the screen. It's the perfect balance of entertainment, real knowledge, and easy to follow.
Awesome videos! ☺️

[ZYNC]

I love your videos!!
I hope i will become a producer like you one day.
