5 Tips To Fight Beat Block!
The beat block is an issue that lots of producers end up facing at some point. Luckily there are a few great ways to beat it pretty fast!
1. COLLABORATION - This is our favorite way to conquer beat block & possibly one of the most effective methods with curing it for the long haul. If you collaborate with another producer, a singer, a rapper, or musician, you can feed off their energy & it can spark new ideas almost instantly. This technique almost fails proof! It's excellent for creating new sounds that you may have note thought of before!
2. LOOPS from SoundOracle.net - Another great way to overcome beat block is using loops. Melodies & samples are good ways to get the creative mind flowing & most of our melody loop packs come with the MIDI information as well, so you can instantly change patches & come up with your sounds & arrangements!
3. LISTEN TO NEW GENRES OR ARTISTS - Sometimes you need a change of pace & new sonics. Checking out different genres can be a very tactful way to think of new melodies & rhythms. Plus, blending genres is such a dope way to come up with a unique sound!
4. MAKE A FOLDER OF YOUR PRE-MADE CHORDS & MELODIES - This is one that you will need to do ahead of time when you're feeling extra creative one day, but all you have to do is make some 2-4 bar loops of your own. Usually, a chord progression & a melody line with some cool patches is more than enough & then you can move on to the next loop. On a day that you're struggling with beat block, all you have to do it pull up your loop folder & you'll have tons of ideas that you already made! This technique is also convenient because you won't have to spend lots of time arranging & layering when making the loops. You'll be able to move onto the next idea pretty quickly!
5. TAKE A BREAK - Believe it or not, stepping away for a little bit can make a big difference. Maybe you only need a 20-minute break with some fresh air or getting your heart rate up, or perhaps you need a whole evening off with a good nights sleep. Either way, freeing your mind can be a healthy way to think of new ideas!
