I’ve heard many producers talk about having beat block (producers form of writer’s block). Here are a few things that I’ve done to counteract not being able to make anything-
For me, having beat block is all about starting a beat. Once you have a good idea to start out, the beat usually comes together. To help fight my beat block I try to start a beat multiple different ways to gain some inspiration. Being a keyboard player, I usually start with chords. To change it up, I might try to start with a drum loop and then lay down chords. Something that is also fun for me, is to come up with a melody line and then write chords to match the melody line. Another thing that can be helpful is to write on different instruments. For instance if you are a keyboard player try writing a song on the guitar, bass or drums. Always push yourself and try new things you never know what you will come up with!
