This is my first post . I just started one month ago so I am not yet mastering all the sound tools. I tried to provide a general audience sound with this song.

This song is well appreciated by my friends and family but would like to have a more "objective" point of view by experimented composers on this portal.

Thanks!

really good

I hate to be the one to give a 9 but it was really good overall, I just wasn't really feeling the bell/steel drum thing. That sound is a good concept but it kinda gets annoying after a while. I would say to try to add some variation to it, at least for the outro. Also for the outro you could try more of a buildup, maybe just a very simple string progression.

Basis was good, guitar melody, simple drum beat. Good job overall.

i lik eit

this is chill. i can see it as like some background music in a movie like durring a montage or something. great job.

5/5

Thanks a lot DV. I'll work it out a little more and I guess I will follow this route for my future postings.

Thanks for the review!

My knowledge on this style of music isn't quite my forte. Overall I think this song is awesome and definitely well-done. I think this would fit perfectly as background music for a plethora of games.

A couple of points I would suggest tweaking:

Mainly, I feel that the instrument introduced at 0:11 (sounds bell-like) that carries on through the remainder of the song ought to have some sort of variation - whether it is tweaking the pitch or having the hits change every so often. My reason is because it is rather repetitive, and I think takes away from the replay value of the song.

Following the percussion fill (at 2:24) I think you should highlight the percussion a little more by increasing their volumes and have it as if someone was essentially playing a solo. This is the climax of your song, so I think it might improve it with some additional energy.

If I were you, I would play around with the concept of introducing additional instruments, whether it is another of the main melody harmonizing with it, or simply some background chords from whatever. I think this would add sort of an interesting orchestral sound to it. It might sound better - might not.

Great job on this song. I look forward to hearing your future submissions.

DMKE responds:

Exactly the type of review I need! I took note of these suggestions and will work it out.

Thanks for the 10!
