Ok this may be a bit of a long post but thanks for reading if you do
I'm hoping that you are able to understand what I am trying to say:
Basically, I'm wondering, what goes on inside the head of a producer when he is making a beat/instrumental? There are super producers like Scott Storch and Lex Luger who can make so many beats in a certain amount of time. But how can someone develop so many ideas for songs in a short amount of time? Where do these ideas come from? Do you hear the sounds and melodies etc in your head? Do they just suddenly pop out in your head out of nowhere? Are you able to make a particular sort of song whenever you want to, for example, if you wanted to make a club banger like Bottoms Up, or a dark beat like Hit Em Up by 2Pac, would you be able to whenever you wanted to?
I wonder what makes you choose the sound you want to use? For example, what made Polow Da Don want to use that sound that he did for that intro for Hero? What made Timbaland want to use that synth for Ayo Technology? Do you hear that specific instrument or synth in your head before you lay down the beat or do you search your whole library of sounds until you find something? What made them want to place the notes where they did to produce those melodies?
I hope you understand what I mean when I ask what goes on inside the of a music producer. So can anyone explain what you think during the process of making a beat in as much detail possible please? What do you see and hear in your mind? What do you feel?
Many Thanks
