I wrote this a song a little while ago, and I like it, but am fairly sure that no one else will...

...but I'm curious to know what you guys think, so negative critisism is expected. Thanx guys.

Wow. I really like the little effects that are going on in the back ground.
Some of the chords are gogeous too, if you ask me. :nod:
Why does this remind me of Animal crossing?

OH FUCK! EDIT: I was reminded that TRICK OR TREATING IS TONIGHT! Gotta play AC. brb.
There. I feel cleansed now. And my new uniform was ruined. YAY!

This is an interesting song. There's a lot of percussion going on, and very simple instrumentation. The piecemeal/cut up feel is actually very cool. It keeps me interested, at least. Although that also throws the flow of the composition off a lot, making it seem a little thrown-together sounding. I don't know exactly how you want this to sound, but I think there could be more filling in the instrument parts. A lot of it feels very small and underutilized to me, but that might be what you wanted.

Congratulations on another excellent quality piece. Happy

Your use of percussion is excellent. It really adds to the experience of the composition.

Sometimes it feels as if the composition wants to go somewhere but stops midway in a phrase. It feels as if it is somewhat not directed and it just wanders from place to place. I do think that the small bits and pieces that are thrown in are quite nice, but it would be nice if you took these themes and expanded on them as opposed to a spur of the moment type of thing.

Congrats on your nice composition.

I would say,
It was kind of a trance like song,
and would be great as an MP3.

things that sound midi just dont have the same effect.
This song would definately not suit MIDI.

Almost reminds me of some Pink Floyd stuff.

From me, that's a compliment.
