When I wrote my last Facebook post, I never thought that it would be again so long before I had something new to report. But every time I sat down at my music computer and played around with the keys, I was so extremely bored with my own ideas that I lost interest after just 1 hour. Several times I even thought "Ok, that's it then with the music, my creativity is now exhausted forever". But then I had to think about how many hundreds of times over the past few decades I had the same thought, and how I've always gotten a new boost of creativity after it.
But just over a week ago, things began to change. I still wasn't in the mood for new songs, but I started listening to the old songs and was pleasantly surprised after such a long time. I found the new songs to be very sophisticated and catchy - only song 2 was a bit disappointing. While it had good rhythmic elements, it just wasn't perfect. So I decided to radically rewrite the song, threw away all the melodies and slowed the tempo down by half and started doing something completely new on that basis. I quickly realized that this song turned into a much better song than the original, and I was able to quickly find 2 parts for it.
When I was done with that, I felt motivated enough to compose a 2nd part of song 6 again. Suddenly, after so many months of stagnation with that song, it was very easy to compose a suitable, good second part, and the song was finished quickly and now also has a catchy melody. I finally finished it today.
Today I will also try to compose a second part for song 7.
