I can hear the music in my head and now when I play it it just no longer lines up in my DAW and it sounds like trash. Why did I do this?

    Maybe I'm just up my own ass, but I think being bad at an instrument while still knowing the basics can be a good limitation to have. I have barely any idea how to play guitar, but I still record it in songs I make. Usually I try to write something way too complex I have to repeatedly simplify until it works, or I just make it as weird as possible.

    Do that, make something really avant garde. Limitations are fun.
