Composing vs Arranging

I was just wondering if there are people who dont really like to compose but rather love to arrange and mix music or both.

I'm personally love to compose but hate to arrange. As soon as I come up with a new tune I want to create another one.

What are your views and opinions.

Thx.
 
At times I can be exactly the opposite! I may struggle to find an initial idea that is interesting enough to be worth working on. But when it strikes, I'll run with it for miles.
 
I actually prefer the arranging part. I think a lot of it has to do with the pressure that I put on myself when composing.
 
I'm glad to find out that there are people who prefer arranging to composing.
Did any of you guys worked in pairs? One person is a composer and the other one is an arranger?
 
I have,it was great

had one guy the composer/song writer and I did the Tracking/mixing/arrangment.
all orignail stuff

he was alot better composer then me so it worked out great.

I think aggrangment can get pretty deep thought,depends how the feel of the flow is in the song structure.not just hot beats

Yeh i like to arrange more myself. But composing is kewl too, sometimes it goes hard, takes alotta time and energy...
I dont like to arrange someone's music tho. I'd prefer to compose myself and let someone arrange it.
