I feel not good. And there's a very simple reason why.
I can't make music. I don't know what's going on, but nothing I've made recently sounds any good at all. I keep saying "if only I had better instruments" but I know it's not that. I just don't have any ideas for what kind of music to make, and all of the introductions I try to make sound like complete crap. Part of how I make music is that I make a neat sound in the intro, and that starts an idea. But nothing's coming out right. Can't find a good sound, can't find the right instrument anywhere, can't make it, I feel like I can't do anything.
And I'm BORED, musically speaking - I have a million and a half ideas and I can't write a single damn one of them. It's a pain in the ass.
Doesn't make it any better that I see people making great music and coming out with it what seems like every other week, while I take months to put out a piece that's often considered to be half as good by most people.
What helps you write music when you get like this?

Time. It's pretty much the only thing that can help me now. I have to give time its own time.
*hug* I feel you; I am going through a rather slow creative period myself, if not a standstill.
