    Is there certain music you like to listen to or movie you like to watch to get in the mood? Do you spark the lighter before getting to work, that way your head will be clear? Maybe you walk or ride around city looking for inspiration, or just chill and wait till your in the mood? Or you probably just play video games till an idea pops in your head. Whatever you do let me know.

    I get ideas when I'm tired, or walking somewhere. I will be lying down after 10 hours at college, and randomly I will get an idea for a design, or a piece of music. Or I will be trying to sleep, and get an idea, then be forced to get up, write it down, and go back to sleep. Or an idea will pop into my head when I am navigating a major intersection.

    Ideas always seem to come at bad times for me. Usually when I either can't, or have no energy, to work on it.

    Epic music usually inspires me to write. But my ideas I get randomly(though I noticed that I get more when I'm outside).

    It occurs randomly for me. Also, if I'm just jamming about aimlessly on my guitar, sometimes I'll think "hold on, that's actually cool..." and run with it so to speak. Also, finding new sounds on the guitar and figuring out what to do with them can help create new stuff musicly. A lot of the time I've been inspired, it's been to rework something that's cool so it's either A) heavier, B) more psychedelic, or C) both (my favourite). I figured out a really cool arrangement for Mama (Phil Collins or Genesis?) a while ago, had a sort of Toolesque vibe to it. I prefer doing original stuff though, it's more fulfilling and covers only take so much effort.
