The what inspires you thread!

[Gurnumsbug]

Does anyone else ever just see something and immediately go "WOW I just got a great idea for a track!"?

Here I'll start..
Today I saw this girl whom I'm just starting making conversation with...
She is so sweet and so beautiful. She could definitely be a victoria secret model!
I cannot get her out of my mind! She has a great personality and is the perfect package!
I now want to use her for the cover image for the EP i'm currently working on...
Such grace

What about you guys?
What inspires you? or What had inspired you?

That`s called love.
It inspires all of us at some point.
As does rejection, breaking up and suicide.

OP I think you summed it up
it's all for the bitches
maybe a bit of emotional catharsis
but mostly bitches.

lol that also works as well...I mean I don't usually plan the song names in advance, but I understand how that can take a life on it's own

Hate inspires me... I take all the negative energy from the world and convert it into artistic expression. I love the challenge... the resolution of the conflict... the taste of revenge... the thrill of victory.

[hasezwei]

mostly abstract ideas. but also moments.
for example i like orange-y streetlights to the blue-ish background of the sun going down on a moderately cloudy evening. i then try to imagine what the colors sound like, and other things like how the streetlights pass me while i'm in a car, the rhythm of traffic, the smell of the road... yeah that kinda stuff. hard to explain but at least im not as insane as that deepchord guy who organizes his samples after colors and intensity grades

Best in the biz, IMO. These guys (among others) inspire me

[drooka]

photos, particularly of landscapes and such, really inspire me... for each major flp i've got, i have a different background to keep me in the mood of the track.
