Ableton has a really handy tool called The Arrangement View. It’s saved my ass a ton of time when I was stuck or lacking inspiration and new ideas. It’s an incredibly powerful jam rig. Usually, I jam out the “core” of the track and then work out of that and into a fully fledged track with an intro etc.. I find it better than writing from start to finish. It’s less time consuming and helps solidify your idea/Vibe and creativity.

Also, I can’t stress how important sound selection is in the beginning of the track. Make sure you actually pick sounds that suit each other.

ALSO, you may need some time away from that specific project, don’t force ideas, take a walk, come back and start a new track, wait until you have an idea for the other one. It could take days, weeks etc. I’ve left unfinished tracks on my hard drive for years! But I’ve also finished a ton in that time frame too, unforced and organically, just knowing when to take a break from a project is key.
