The melody was really nice and all, but this piece wasn't classical, it was rock. refer to a review i did on "-Human Feelings-" This is a rock song, the emphasis is on the second and forth beats, classical is on the first and third beats.

For example if you were to count through the beats in a classical song you would be distinctly draw to firstly count through the song in 4 beats, (making it 4/4 time signature) and count ONE, two, THREE, four. with the greatest emphasis on the first beat. in your song one is drawn to count one, TWO, three, Four. the heaviest emphasis on the second beat, making your song rock.

I'll bet I'd get a lot more people complaining this is more classical than rock if I put it there. Besides... I know nothing of theory, so there is no way I'd know that.

Thanks for the insight though.

The sound quality wasn't very nice, sounded like a MIDI. The melody was nice at first, after the intro, but the bass line was then just too boomy and kinda hijacked the song, and then there was those little ding-a-ling things, they were horrible. The melody was quite nice at 3.00, but the bass was still quite boomy. No dynamics at all which is quite disappointing. sound quality was fine, everything is quite clear.

My scoring is split into 3 groups;
Sound quality - 2 points
Dynamics - 4 points
Melody - 4 points
= The 10 stars.

Your score;
Sound quality - 2
Dynamics (If you don't know what this means try google) - 0
Melody - 2
= 4

Can't wait to hear your next piece.

I appreciate the feedback- yes, there is a lack of dynamics, but my dynamic contrast was more 1st half of the song/2nd half.

Will work on it more, constructive criticism makes the world go round. :D

I experimented with a MIDI program because I've never used one of good quality before and i wanted to try something different from how i normally record my music.
There are many excellent MIDI programs out there and you'll find that the majority of the songs submitted to the audio portal involve MIDI sounds or programs in some way.
I also don't understand your scoring system...
Thanks for the review and feedback.
