i sometimes put a crackle generator on the master while I'm writing. I think the unexpected noises surprise you, it's to get rid of that feeling of knowing the beat too well and to get a bit of objectivity back.

I think the radio would work in this way too.

Chainsmoking, sitting wrong, cursing. :o
We also tend to drink tons of redbull/coffee and munch like mad people

I have to agree with the naming final project thing. I tend to get caught up writing it that by the time I get to the end I dont have a clue what to call it. Thing is I want to show people as quickly as possible so I name it the first thing taht comes into my head

I love me some coffee and redbull actually monster "B.F.C." but I can't do it while producing it dulls my hearing or something. It's mostly just pot and cigs along with beer or coke (the softdrink assholes).

True that. Amphetamine works 100 times better though. But sometimes you feel too good and just want to listen to music not make it.

I haven't started a track from fresh in over a year....I just build on from the last one. So hopefully that means every track is better :D
