Moz Group: Musicians Posts: 600 Joined: July 2005 Posted: Mar. 17 2007, 23:03 Ways I think you could improve this: - Tidy up the timing - it sounds disorganised - Balance the volume of each instrument - some sound a lot louder than others, some cause distortion (especially the vocals - although that might be deliberate) - Find some better instruments - they don't sound very authentic - Work on the drumbeat - it doesn't really fit the track too well - Develop the theme rather than repeating it Sorry if it sounds like I am being too harsh - I'm trying to give you comments that you can work with.  You have some good ideas here but you need to work on how you deliver them to the listener. -------------- Twitter: @benbarden Back to top

But i like the melodies , they are very nice ( piano + violins at 00'53 > 1'10  ) and i think you should change the drums ; try to have " quiet drums " , i want to say : try to put drums with not too electronic sound but more acoustic ; you could put some soft percussions too .( Hope you'll understand my limited English )   EDIT : I forgot to ask you with which sequencer you have made this piece of music Back to top

Yes, you are in right, i have to change the drums, it was an experiment, my style of music is more accustic than electronic, you can listen another tracks in this forum. Moz, thank you for your constructive comments, I going to improve this points that you tell me: the drums, the volume in each instrument... i´m going to work in that. Tubular Tos, I did this track with a Casio CTK-750, it was a give for my birthday in 1995!!! (I was 18 years old). Now im trying to mix this sound with software. Thank you and sorry for my english level! Back to top
