Hey there.

Three of these I wrote for a text-based RPG my team was doing, but that was canceled, so I just decided to release em and see what you guys though. The rest I just wrote because I felt like writing. All are MP3s at 192kbs.

Hello,
thanks for sharing your works with us.
For the first piece I thought it started nicely in a moody chant like song. the only problem I have with it, is the "sequence" of the melody. Specially when you start to play faster notes.
for the second piece, I really don't care much for those parallel 5ths and 4ths.Though I am not saying you shouldn't use them, but it is perhaps a matter of taste.
The third piece is rather intersting , it looks to me as if you are trying to convey something but all the sudden, you are distracted with some other ideas. try to focus more on the central idea or mood of the piece and finish it in a way that the story is polished.
The 4th piece, just like the first 3 , uses simple rythms and patterns which stylisticly speaking presents itself well.
The 5th piece is a convination of the first two. Some how this one is more elavorated speaking under the blanked of the same bed (style). Good use of middle notes.
Good use of repetition. a bit predictable but thats allright. perhaps if you listen philip glass, a sudden change in his own style would add to your musical language. Try to avoid, in my opinion, those fast parralel 5ths at the end of the piece. Good resolution of dissonances.
I see you had fun writing this piece, because the use of slow one , fast two represents the idea of "action plus lets think about for a minute". Listeners greatly apreciate that.
Try to work on the ending of your pieces. Over all I ll give your style a 9.
thanks again and I hope my review was helpful.

I liked the first two pieces, but the next two were bland and simple. But the next three were good again.

The reason I didn't like the 3rd and 4th were due to strange pauses that didn't seem to come at the end of phrases, as if stuck in randomly. Kind of like a beginner plunking out chords. If you are to make any future changes, I'd make them both a little more flowing.

Overall, nice work.
