I’m at that phase when I’m doing something where I’ll scribble lots of meaningless ideas into a notebook (“shorten…listen to older demo, take out hiss, add strings, re-record, feed piano-loop thru delay pedals, build on melody, backwards ebow, equalize drum track”) until some of them make sense/or appeal to me.  Then it’ll take weeks or months to force myself to actually sit down and execute them.  I got 5 minutes of basic tracking done.  Yee fuckin haw, man.
