Production Journal 26

I'm mostly just helping out my fellow classmates, whether its recording or writing lyrics. I don't know why but I'm having this huge mental block. I'm leaning to do my old song but whenever I try to record it, I lose all total motivation. Maybe cause I played it too much? Or am I just looking for excuses to procrastinate? I floated around recording sessions which I've been asked to help with, to see if theres anything anywhere that could help motivate me. Motivation. At this point of time, its motivation that I am looking for. I can tell I'm slowly burning out too. Then, I heard someone playing a new song released by a Korean artist and on the spot, I received inspiration and decided to lean towards making a whole new song.

So after that talk it really gave me something similar to that of a wake up call and it got me thinking. It got me determined to step out of ...

So far this has been my favourite session in the production lab because the briefing we had was really funny but at the same time very enriching. Yet again production lab had me questioning on what "Beauty" was and how it relates to our potential future careers.When it came to the mission, I was wondering how the pieces that inspired us or has had an impact in our lives which we found "beautiful" were suppose to help us do the project. So when it came to sharing it with my group, I was rather skeptical. But then i realised that the things we were sharing with one another all had a common theme to them, which was that all 3 of us were scared to take the risk of pursuing a music-related career but these pieces inspired us to pursue them. When we realised this, we felt really happy because its something that all of us could relate to and we used that relatable experience to write a song that expressed how we feel about the paths we've chosen. Although it may not be...
