It's happening to me, again.
I'm staring, bleary-eyed, at 2/3rds of a completed track. It has a nice intro that grabs the listener's attention quickly, the sounds are good and the leads are moving. It breaks into a nice start, moves along, breaths, goes up and down... There's a good break, and then the second section starts. It tells a bit of a story, changing a bit before the final breakdown.
It's been over a month since the track was started, and easily 24+ hours of labor have gone into it. It's ready, BEGGING, for the last section that brings the listener to the end of the song, and yet... nothing.
Every idea I come up with seems to move in the wrong direction. Either it's just a rehash of a previous element (and dull) or it seems to be moving it in another direction (like the second part) without bringing a sense of closure.
Either finishing tracks is something only for the masters, or I've created quite the psychological barrier for myself. It seems like almost every track I work on turns in to this problem...
Any advice? Why can't I seem to bring closure to my tracks? :/
Thanks!
