Thanks I appreciate, I have heard the CSI comments before, thats a good thing I think. Thanks for the review. Any other comments or crits?

Wow, that computer does suck if this doesnt allow to listen to music, I think the very first pcs ever made could do that!:P And no this is music from me that I believe has some of their sensibilties.

Hey guys This is something I worked on a bit ago and never got to finish it because my pc crashed and didnt back it up before I was done. Interested what you guys think of it as is. Thanks for taking the time. The Technoir Project.mp3 - File Shared from Box.net - Free Online File Storage

Haha! Just stating truth! Well what you think of the song?

Hey I am a producer looking for work and currently working with a local band. I thought a Radiohead /Quincy Jones mix might be an interesting idea to play with. This is the result. Let me know your thoughts. The Resistancev2.mp3 - File Shared from Box.net - Free Online File Storage

Thanks everyone for taking the time to listen and comment. Yes, Chris, I forget about that darn E slider. This piece was actually lost so I couldnt go back and fix it. And Nigel, you seem to have great insight in the story, everything you have said has been pretty much accurate. Thanks for listening. Fourthage, I agree with what you have said, as the full piece is extended this was cut off, I did change the time signature but ahwell, maybe I will compose it again... Thanks for listening and I will definitely look in to your critique. -Christopher Harrow

I am putting out a graphic novel at the end of this year called Avalon: The City Within. Here is a part of the intro song! As The World Falls Down.mp3 - File Shared from Box.net - Free Online File Storage Thanks, comments welcome.

Thanks for taking the time to listen and give feedback. I think you guys are both right. It could work either way. Hopefully it works for the given material. I watch the There Will Be Blood trailer with it, and it gives it an interesting mood. Try it!

I am just honestly searching for critiques to build from not, "you are great". But, thank you if you think so! I want people to post how this made them feel, if I got the "dangerous music" sound across. I like Phillip Glass inspiration for this, did that come across? Too strongly or not enough? Stuff like that. Thanks also Chris, actually this is still reason, but I am getting a little better at mixing I think, and using a new reverb. Thanks for taking the time!

Hrm...38 views and no replies...am I missing something?:P Feed back definitely appreciated.

Hey all... I am doing this for a video game project so I can't show all of it. The commission was "dangerous sound music" to go with the opening film... Its a bit repetitive but thats what they wanted...I change melody drasticly and its goes pretty crazy from here but this is all I can get away with showing. I wanted a Phillip Glass/Hip Hop feel.

Chris Harrow I wanted the feel of heaving breathing, like huffing and pufffing.

Heya! Overall I was impressed by the sound quality. It all sounds pretty good. Everything everyone else has said makes sense, the flute was weak and seemed to kinda limp along, I think some high strings accentuating it would work well along with bringing the flute up with some reverb. My main crit would be it sounds very...film music cliche. I feel like I have heard it before. But, for 15 this is darn good. I wish I started at that age! Keep up the good work, the more you experience in life, the more your music will find its identity.

Heya Nirvana... First off, thanks a ton for taking the time to post a comment. I will defintiely remix this thing after I complete it. And I will take your crits in consideration. The Harrowing style is pretty much the greatest compliment an artist can get. Having one's own approach to a pretty broad medium is great to hear, I am glad that I am having that effect. But, with that said, what is it exactly that sounds different from everyone else? Anyways thanks for listening.

Fox! Thanks for listening man! Yeah I agree, action is really what I needed here, exploration definitely suits this better. I agree with the drums too heavy after listening to it in my car. Sucks that I can only compose with headphones until I get enough cash for some great speakers. Currently saving for some JBLs. I plan on having a distinct movement change near the end...we shall see. Do you think the drums should be more...distinct...different? Or are they fine as is?

Hey this is a newer piece I am currently working on for my Technoir Project. I need some comments on it, how it makes you feel, possible things I can do to improve it. Disregard the last 10 seconds plan on changing the melody and taking it somewhere different. Well here it is. I wanted to convey, dark sci fi fantasy urban action with gothic and technological resonances.

Thanks a ton for the crit. Will make sure to keep this in mind for my composing endeavors.

Hey Marius! Thanks for the quick and well thought response. This is exactly what I was looking for in a critique!! And I agree I do need to go back and write the entire piece... Let you how it comes along. Also, if you have the time, could you check out my Dream Machine piece, eager to here your crit there aswell. Thanks, -Harrow

Hey all, Its Harrow back with another theme. This is for a sci fi/fantasy mystery, adventure drama I hope to write and direct someday soon.:thumbsup: The core of the story is about a astromoner who forsook every thing in his life, his family and his friends for his love of the stars. And how he comes upon the greatest scientific discovery in mankind's history and how the universe is changed forever because of it.:sadtears: I wanted it be magical, spiritual and minimalistic. Making a grand idea or discovery very personal to his own journey and sacrifice. An intimate love of the stars and the secrets it contains in its vastness. Any ideas on how to convey this better would be appreciated.:D Thanks again, -Harrow Box.net - Free Online File Storage, Internet File Sharing, Online Storage, Access Documents & Files Anywhere, Backup Data, Send Files

Variety? Thats pretty general, can you get more specific? Themes, instruments, tempos? Moods? Thanks.

Yeah, thanks for listening, Nirvana. Elfman is definitely a big influence on me and my work. I think we like to use similar approaches to rhythym and bass. (Must be our rock band origins, haha). Also, I dig use of choir alot so maybe that is also a similarity. Thanks again! -Harrow

Hey Song! I spent probably 12 hours total on this...mostly learning new things and playing every darn instrument in Reason, kinda a pain. But, I found this really fun. Also, trying to find my own style and approach to composing. The hard part is mixing the dang thing properly...some sounds don't sound like I want them to. Any crits or suggestions? Also thanks Nyu for listening, I sometimes use similar frequencies in music for greater punch and variety but I will make sure the dynamics are there. Thanks again for listening!

Ah, what exactly is a zone alarm...?

Reason is a sequencer, where you play all of the instruments with your midi keyboard.

Thats strange....may open in new window when you right click it?

Ah thanks, Chris. (Feels like I am talking to myself). Was there anything you felt could be improved on or modified for the better?
