But for me it's very difficult to finish music on my own. It's the fear of losing the fun.

When I start to construct something, it often ends in frustration.

I do music mainly just for myself in the beginning, and of course it's great when I get a reaction, but I'm more interested in hearing something unusual to my ears, and that's what I'm also looking for in other people's music.
