  2. Not sure of your methods of composing music, or what programs you utilize/sounds etc... But based on the recording provided, "ambient" is.. definitely a word that could be used to describe it, however I don't think that you are hitting the mark of what you intend to have this music ultimately sound like, in your description. The reason I say this is because when I think of the word "ambient", I don't imagine surprising, sudden changes in sound that are not expected, and result in a bit of a jarring feeling when listened to. (I'm referencing the 0:23 mark in the recording). That may be something to consider avoiding, moving forward, in my opinion. I'd urge you to look into more of the music written by C418, for Minecraft, and his other work. I believe you could gain some inspiration in the right direction from that artist. :) In regards to asking about any mistakes you might make, that's difficult to analyze it for, given that there is no provided sheet music. If you have a score for this piece, I'd be glad to look at it for you.
  3. I will do the thing that is writing something or other for the thing mentioned above, and things. (I am declaring my intent to participate. for those who have to think a little bit too hard to figure that out) ☠️

  15. For the "Landscapes - Soundscapes" Spring 2026 Composition Competition I propose the following badges: "The Pastorale Award" "The Bustling Cityscape Award" Anyone have anymore ideas?
  16. Hi, can you try uploading again? I tried and I was successful. Earlier this morning I did try to update the forum but was having some issues, maybe you tried uploading during that time. Try again and let me know.
  17. Thanks! Yeah something I try to practise is to keep inventions and techniques for when they are useful instead of using them arbitrarily. In hindsight I think the form isn't perfect: While composing certain moments felt larger and longer but on listen not so much... But yeah if you wish to use it in teaching, go for it! Just let me know :D
  18. Good job with this the micro tonality hits hard because it comes later in the piece. Great for warm-ups and also concert performance as well. I may need to look at the score closer, but it may be a good teaching device.
  19. Thank you so much for your feedback! It is so greatly appreciated, and has brought to light so many obvious things that I just haven't paid attention to it seems! Everything you say makes complete sense, and will definitely help me a lot for the exam!!! Thank you so much, and I'll be working on all these points!
  20. Are we able to register for the competition now/ is the pole finalized?
  21. Hi , Since the recent update today, banner updating has Failed | is this intentional ?
  22. Reading the title of this thread I have a few seconds of terror that you're leaving the forum, thank God you don't! Congrats on your works being used in films! Henry
  23. Just something I felt today. Had the start floating around in my mind when I woke up, but the rest (especially the microtonality, my first microtonal harmony ever :D) came as part of the process. Pretty happy with this. If someone wants to check if the intervals are playable, please do. I also have no idea harmonically what is going on, it is all just based on what sounded right to me. Wordlike is a thing I started doing some years ago. Basically inventing nonsense words and connecting them to something abstract (or a specific meaning). I like to compose and then examine how I feel phonologically. Ano'ton, awash.n93.mp3 n93.pdf
  24. Yo, Since some people have asked about what I'm up to for film scoring I figured now would be a good time to make a thread. Firstly, I am scoring a very cool action/horror film that begins shooting next month, but they are looking to raise some additional funds. Check out this spoiler-free (mostly), behind-the-scenes video (which I also scored). The film stars stuntwoman and actress Alleya Bourne, whose work you may have seen on "The Last of Us" and the film's effects, including the animatronic creature itself are all practical and provided by an Emmy-winning team who have also lent their talents in prosthetics, makeup and puppeteering to Hollywood films like "Sonic The Hedgehog" and "Child's Play". The entire cast and crew would greatly appreciate any support you might able to offer, which you can do so at this link: The Customer - Film and Storytelling | Seed&Spark Oh and you can check out the teaser trailer (which features a heavily-reverbed version of a vocal track I wrote for it) for another film I composed for, a dark supernatural drama called "Crossroads" starring Dave Greason (MGM+'s Billy The Kid) Both will be doing the festival tours in North America later this year so you can catch them in a number of major cities! Thank you for checking it out and all the support the Young Composers community has given me over the years!
  25. Please submit links to your Landscapes - Soundscapes competition pieces here! (Please don't submit your music directly into this thread - rather, create your own dedicated thread where members will be able to review your music there - Upload Your Composition for Analysis and Feedback and then copy and paste the URL of your topic into a reply that you make in this thread). Thank you for your participation! To read the requirements/specifications of the competition and declare your intent to participate go here:
