wait sunklo, i've been meaning to ask - any relation to the record label? or just a fan? or did they steal the name from you? :P

Cause they stylize it the same way you do. http://www.discogs.com/label/SunkLo

Try leaving the track (when you've finished the mixdown but haven't mastered it yet) for a days or even weeks, you'll probably forget most of the track by then or at least not be so sick of it. When you listen again, it should sound a lot better and you can make changes and master it easier. I've done it a couple of times, seems to work for me! :)

This is pretty much what ive resorted to doing.

The only problem is that it takes a while to complete a track this way.

I actually do this quite often. When you can listen to your own music as if it is just a piece of music not made by you and you like it, well then you are getting somewhere.

I make music for myself, that I enjoy listening to.
Playing one of my own tracks and loving it from start to finish is one of the best feelings I can describe.

IMO If you can't listen to your own music wtf is the point.

The way I work is to get the majority of it down in a single session (or 2) that way if I do get bored then I only have to revisit a few more times to 'work' at it and get it too a finish-able state. These types of songs if you're bored of probably aren't going to do much tbh so I don't worry about it, just get it finished so that you get into the habit of completing tracks.
