Most of songwriting is cerebral for me. Ideas usually pop into my head, often fairly complete.
I'll usually grab an instrument if possible at that point and record a really rough demo, just playing into a basic recorder, computer, quicktime, so I can revisit the idea later and finish it.
I prefer to write without an instrument, especially guitar since it's too easy for me to fall into habitual patterns, keys etc.
A lot of Surf/Instro sounds like it was written by someone noodling around on their guitar, which - don't get me wrong, can be cool but I try to challenge myself to think outside the instrument.
Maybe that's why our music doesn't seem to be too popular, LOL.
Cheers,
Jeff
"Busted and Broken" is one of my all-time favourite songs. Surfadelic Spy-a Go-Go would make a perfect soundtrack for a Tarentino movie.
