Any way to get fresh ears?

As in convince yourself you haven't heard something before.

purpose being to have the first time listening experience on some songs or tracks in progress yknow?

im sure there are techniques we have not yet discovered beyond hypnosis to achieve something like this

edit: i guess technically it would be just hypnosis

interesting concept!!

I defiently would want to know if anyone has an intelligent response to this, or more information about it...

force yourself to love it

maybe you'll actually learn to love it

well this doesnt help but i already love it. I would however want to get that first spine tingling feeling again and also critique it as a final

ah i see what you're saying now

i meant maybe exploring a new genre you've either never liked or never explored.

but in your case, maybe taking a long break from the type of music and hearing what artists have been putting out later on can bring back the fresh feeling?

or maybe try doing e or mushrooms and listen. haha you might hear things you didnt notice and the whole experience will be different. lol

drugs will give you a fresh perspective on your music, this is true.

bit of advice tho: the drugs totally lie. enjoy it, but don't make any major decisions without making backups first.

ha i'll take your word, sounds like you had a problem before

I don't do drugs but thanks

I can tell you all kinds of neat ways to anylise a track. But none will give you the same satisfaction of listening to it for the first time.

Instead of trying to pretend its a different song, remix it; again..? Learn from it, and use these ideas towards something fresher, and better.
I'm just saying.

OPEN YOUR MIND
START THE REACTOR!

If you're talking about tracks that you're working on...and after a while you can't really focus on it...the thing I do is put it down and work on something completely different...when you come back to it you can get a fresh perspective...
