Showerthought: I stopped starting tracks at bar 1 and my workflow finally clicked
I kept hitting a wall starting every project from the first bar, so three weeks ago I tried building the drop first and working backwards instead. I threw together the main synth line at 128 BPM in Ableton, then built the intro around it, and the whole track came together in about 4 hours instead of my usual 12. Something about hearing the payoff first made the buildup way easier to map out. I've done 5 tracks this way since, all in my apartment here in San Salvador. Does anyone else build backwards like this or do you still start at bar 1?

Building the drop first saved me too. Total game changer.
