I think one thing which makes a track go stale for me when I making it is if I listen to it too much, and if I take too long to add more things. if I have a couple of listens to get the vibe I then have to say to myself "ok now add the next part!" otherwise I'll stall. When I've stalled I find it hard to make changes because all the changes I make don't fit...
Another thing which helps me when writing tracks (I'm not writing bangers really though) is to write the melody, the chords and the drums first, then do the bass. i totally set up the vibe of the track, which has to be good, then when you add the bass line (which hopefully virtually writes itself because of all the other stuff) it just makes it even better...
