Phantom thoughts

Anyone one write ideas down ? I always get ideas of things I want to try when I get home while doing random everyday sh1t , and then I forget . Sometimes it'll come back to me ... Most of the time it comes back, but only in part. And then theres' the ones that totally escape me . Anyone the same ? I think I might start to somehow write things down as they come to me ...

you should always keep a pen an a pad or a mini tape recorder on ya.

I make some ill beats while I'm at work, on the toilet, or in school and then get home and got nuthin. I know how it feels.

my best ideas always come when i'm in the shower.

I always carry a pen and paper,just in case.

Someone said it before........Never force creativity but be prepared to capture it.

I always used to do my best drum programming in the bathroom, I had a quiklok stand that rolled around, made it real convenient....

my problem is that even if i write it down, i loose the paper. Either that or I have no clue what the **** i was thinking when i reread my notes.

I gotta be specific

nah i dont write that shit down, i do wrtie songs down though. I got an ipod with like 4 thousand songs on it, and a harddrive with over 100 gigs of music and i do deliverys like 40 hours a week. So when i stumble across an ill break or something i want to flip i jot that down in this notebook i have in my car. So i can sample that shit later on.

im probably gonna buy one of those cheap microcassette recorders just to hum melodies that i come up with into. or beatbox drum patterns i come up with. cause i always come up with ill shit in my head while i'm driving, or working, or doing something where my gear isn't.

i always get shit just as i am falling asleep - i think because im being creative with my unconcious mind. If i dont write it down or record it tho i NEVER can remember. Sometime i wake up to a pen jabbing my side and there is like 5 or 6 post-its on the pillow next to me, great lyrics on them. And if it wasnt in my hand writing, i would tend to beleive i was visited by the lyrics fairy....

LYRICS FAIRY

Word, comes to my house too. The best shit I write comes in the morning, usually when I'm laying there, before i open my eyes. Sometimes just come up with a dope chorus or something, run to my book before I lose it.

When I Shower... I Have A Pen & Patch next to me (yeah behind shower door, so it wont get wet). I Noticed I'm more creative under the shower

It seems like lately, I've been dreaming a lot, and new ideas come to me in my dreams (rhymes, even beat patterns). So as soon as I get up, I try to write them down.
