do that actually. steal from your favorite musicians and keep doing that until you find your own voice. Just don't try to pass it off as your own.

do this except with old music no one listens to
also combine genres no one has done yet like dream pop and funeral doom

well the best way is to listen to songs you like and then think about why you like them. then break down how it got there.
