Then do something out of the ordinary, do something in a genre you've never tried writing before. Do something without thinking, do not OCD about mixing, eq, accuracy.

There's a trick that sometimes helps.. try make some loops/ideas as fast as you can, like it's a race, seriously, give it a bash.

I'm going to get my headphones and try it now.
 
Not sure if I should ask here or just create a whole entire new thread...
Anywoo, I need the acapella of Liquideep's - Alone.
Here is a beta of what I'm looking to do with the song
http://soundcloud.com/alphawolftsume/liquideep-vs-hardwell-encoded

I tried at Traxsource, but to no avail. As you can hear from the song above I just worked with the song as is. EQ'ed first in Reason by removing what I can, then I mixed it up with Hardwell's - Encoded. At time its like hey thats sounds good but the majority is like meh. Especially In the breaks I cant raise the vocals without raising the snare which is very high pitched.

Anyone have any ideas what I can do if no one knows where I can get the vocals :)

I think what you're looking for are the original stems, not sure about the legal antics / cost of getting those. Otherwise you're ptty much out of luck, you could try using some clever side chaining and a parametric EQ to notch out that snare during specific intervals.. or you could looka t using iZotope RX, a dozen boxes of redbull and several hundred milligrams of naughty.. I'd go with the stems if I were you.

That's assuming I follow you correctly and these stupid speakers I have in my large, empty office are giving me the right info :)

Someone was awesome enough to give me the acapella version, so when I get some time I'll work on it.
