I've been thinking about this a long time and it really bugs me, how can you get objective when you listen to your work?

I mean in one hand you can be super nice with yourself, you can have a pretty generic song/melody, whatever, and think "Wow this is so good"


But in the other hand you can be super harsh and overthink everything and even if you love something in your song you may think "This is simple af, super easy"

How can you get to the objective side?

It scares me how, for me a song can be the dopest shit ever (Like this ) and think "wow if i had made this, i would be so fucking proud of what i am and do", but maybe his actual maker is thinking "meh it's kinda good I guess"

Or maybe it can be some generic shit, and be thinking "I'm the best producer ever"
I don't know if i'm crazy or im the only one who thinks like this, please share me your experience or tips to listen to your own productions objectively

I always felt kinda weird and "fake" for making my songs inspired in anothers, for example deadmau5, madeon, FLUME, Gesaffelstein, Feed Me, etc
and then madeon uploaded a list that "inspired him to make Adventure (his debut album)" and I started to think, and wonder..

Is there any musician out there who wasn't inspired by a musician?
A song that wasn't inspired by another song, or a paint, or an image?

I mean, I sincerely want to read your opinnions and if Mat replies this, would be awesome, but I always had this sorta thinking that my favorite artist were just great, and had an idea in mind wich they made into a song, but what If EVERY TRACK EVER it's made thinking of another one?

I don't know if I made myself clear but hope I did
I wanna read how you feel about this creative/inspired topic and maybe helping me with my existencial crisis lol

I hope you like my track
