Hey there, Just posted an orchestral track: score will be coming soon! SCORE:

Ok I'm going to comment extremely brutal on that one, try not to take it too hard and don't let me lower your motivation. It seems like you're only a beginner, maybe first or second year of composing music. It's fine, we all were there, here's a documentation of my thoughts when I read/listened to your piece. Write "staccato" instead of short notes, "staccatissimo" instead of extremely short notes. Write "accel" instead of making the tempo a bit higher every bar, "rit" for the opposite effect. It seems like everything you describe has melody, but nothing ties everything up. Maybe this rhythm? Also, making lots of small breaks into one big break would make it easier to read your score. Now I see some other similarities. I'm not removing what I wrote, because I think you might want to see how the mind of me, as a listener, reacted to your piece. I'm at 5:40. It starts to get boring, don't push your piece, don't try to make it longer than it should. I did this mistake a few times in the past, people just got bored too quickly. Try to cut out some things. You can also keep everything, for the full picture of May, but I think you should cut some things. I'm at 7:10. The piece is too static. I know that you had some interesting fast and sharp parts, but for me it's getting boring. I don't feel like it's moving anywhere. Ok, I finished listening to your piece. I think that your idea of conveying the month is nice, and I'm sure that you learned many things when you composed it. I know that you're probably at your first year or two, but I believe in honest feedback. If it makes you feel bad, notify me and I'll delete everything and just write "cool" like @Youngc does instead.

Personally, Radio Relish didn't get me to Bob my head as it played - too many ideas. It sounded like several ideas you had for beats all put in one. However, I loved it when the samples came in later on. Although, the samples seemed like one huge intro. Will listen to the rest soon.

Hi, for me its a very good try! Its a music that i could hear in the morning, but at night too. A music for all the hours. Nice rythm, nice melodies & loops, nice work!

Reminds me of the way I improvise with the Harpsichord setting on an electronic keyboard. Some of the dissonant intervals are a bit off putting, (mainly the A to G seventh that resolves to the A to F sharp sixth in bar twenty but it sounded better the second time I listened) but then I don't know much about counterpoint.
