Amazing

I've just heard your music today (after I heard "Fantasy Four Strings" I just had to hear the rest of your music), and you're an amazing composer. As an aspiring composer myself, I'd just like to say good luck in your field of work. You've got an insane amount of talent.

Now, onto this piece, it does a really nice job telling the story. When I read the story and then listened to it along with it, it really gave me the exact picture that you'd written down.

I'd hate to be a 16 year old giving you a critique, but maybe a quiet opening with just the main piano line fading in would sound nice even if it's a little generic? It just seems like it would fit with the fade out at the end. To be honest, it's nothing major. It sounds great both ways. It's hard to find a flaw in a piece like this.

I appreciate the critique and I can see your rational on the fade in introduction. I was a little skeptical of putting the fade out, but I thought it made it sound less like a loop. The piece is essentially a loop but I didn't feel like it fit into the loop category. Thanks for the review and keep up the composing!

Nice

Sorry to tell a story, but during my last concert auditions, I was sitting with a group of people and a girl came in with a ukulele. Anyways, long story short, we ended up keeping beat on trashcans, and using all of our instruments to play this song. We actually had people walking by stop and listen. It was pretty cool.

Thank you for your time :P.

Same

Again with the no offense, but it's the same thing, except with the chord being repeated by different instruments (and off beat at that). What I meant by melody is actually add some variation instead of the generic:

Bum-bumbum-bum-bum-bumbum-bum

Don't rush this kind of thing. Finish the song, and then post it. You'll get a more positive response that way.

GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!

Time for V3......

Umm...

No offense man, but it wasn't that great. It was just chords, there wasn't even a melody. Not even that, but it was only Is IVs and Vs. You should add in a melody at least.

This would be something people would use as a basis, but this doesn't constitute a song.

4/10 for at least knowing basic music theory.

Can you check out my other version?!?

Love it, man.

I love how you managed to make the solos coincide with one another, great stuff. I also love the style man.
