Thanks a lot for your comment I made a few adjustments in a newer polished version @PeterthePapercomPoser Like clock work version 2.2 05-04-2026 - Flow 1.mp3version 2 refined.pdf

Hey @Bjarke ! Nice job on this one! It's full of vitality and forward-driving energy! I love it! I don't find any part of it boring and can easily listen to it over and over. To me it doesn't sound so much like clockwork but more like a Spring piece with it's liveliness and exuberance. It doesn't sound mechanical to me. For me, for it to be a piece about clockwork it would have to contain some sense of ticking mechanicality. It's also not the right tempo to sound like a clock. Doesn't matter though, as I think you've created a great piece of music here! Great job and thanks for sharing! P.S.: My only nitpick would perhaps be to have notated this in 6/8, 9/8 or 12/8 as it would become easier to read imo.

Like clock work version 2.mp3version 2.pdf Hey. Any chances of getting critique on this composition? Thanks in advance. Some personal things i noticed: Overused rhythm – Effective but repetitive; lacks contrast and becomes monotonous. Sections that don’t fit – Some passages sound good on their own but feel disconnected from the main idea. Ideas needing polishing – Certain motifs or sections need refinement so they integrate better into the overall structure and narrative of the piece. Too much tension There is too much tension in the piece. It needs more release here and there. The main lead could be stronger and more interesting The main idea is pretty good but it is repetitive from the first round to the second round. Awkward transitions There is a few places where there are awkward transitions that needs to be fixed. more modulation The piece stays too much within the same key.

I think I fixed my files

okay done. drums.mp3

go crazy with the drums and see what happens 😊

I think I'll put a piano part after the drop, but I have a problem. Recently I had to re- download windows 10 because my computer was as laggy as a potato, But it messed up my files, and that made It so my DAW doesn't load the right Instruments. I'm actively trying to fix it.

Good round, though!

Would you provide a score?

I don't know what you mean by "having voices 'backwards.'" My guess would be that you either mean that I derive harmonies through melody rather than the other way around or that I sometimes use chord regressions. Neither of these are, in my opinion, though, a problem, and I think much of the music I've uploaded to the net is reasonably solid aside from issues with me often using cheap synthesized instruments.

Basically, have your music more thought through and with a clear idea of the thing and not having voices 'backwards'.

Hi! I am a young composer, in 4th grade and I want to be more known across platforms using my orchestral pieces that I compose in and out of school. I have a piece titled Vasilisa's Veil and I want this to gain popularity. The link will be included 😊 Vasilisa's Veil The video linked is posted on YouTube by my orchestra teacher. If you watch it, I appreciate greatly ☺️

Seems about right.
