Hi everyone, I’m new here! I’ve seen a few other pieces of music shared here, and it seems like the perfect place for me to join in. I’m a French student, and I’ve spent 12 years studying piano at a conservatory. Recently, I’ve started composing, and I feel confident enough about what I’ve created to share it with you. Right now, I don’t have anyone around for active listening, so I have no idea how to assess the quality of my compositions. I’d really appreciate honest feedback (whether it’s theoretical or just based on your feelings) to understand where I stand and how I can improve. I hope you will feel as much emotion listening to it as I did composing it 😀 Thank you in advance for your time and your insights!

Hi forum! I'm back, or am I? Had I ever left? This post made by @Zimr Music reminded me of an old piece that I made for a story inside a Minecraft server that I will likely never finish because of the enormous amount of workforce needed, studying, planning, blah, blah, blah. The title says enough about it, I'd say, and I don't want my words to distract you. ♫ Here's the piece ♫ Ancient Pyusisk's mineshaft__noplayer__.mp3 And here's the pdf in case someone wants to check it out: 29 - Ancient Pyusisk's mineshaft.pdf This ambient piece was composed at the end of 2019 if I recall correctly, and that'd be all the info. As always, hope you find it decent!

casel LI is a living nomad and poet turning musical pieces and atmospheres into film soundtracks by traveling the world from volcanoes to rainforests, from rocky coastlines to urbanized jungles, a variety of sounds and ideas will merge into songs and compositions leaving the regular patterns of life, challenging his existence with constant uncertainties, his music is a reflection of this journeys enjoy listening here

havent posted in a few years and have drastically changed compositional styles to electronic music. i felt like posting to get some thoughts on my new ambient sound. ❤️ you can check out the full album on any streaming services 🙂 nightwalker.mp3

My music portfolio: https://soundcloud.com/hiwes/sets/my-best-music-and-my-portfolio Twitter: HIWES433 Email: Niko433aclo@gmail.com I will make you a Theme song for your Video Game or anything else that you need music for. Be specific about what kind of style the music needs to be: Rock, Synth, Chill, happy, sad, or whatever you want it to be. The right music can make an emotional moment that much more emotional, a tense moment that much more tense.

I made this fun video about 5 levels of ambient guitar. We experience a lock down here and I can't do anything except playing music or doing part-time job I have from home. So, this is the video (and there's an announcement at the beginning of the video 😜)

This is how I show the world "face of depression" and how I feel inside. Hope you enjoy it. https://soundcloud.com/muhammadreza75/dawn-of-blue-hearts

Hi guys! I was just wondering if you had any ideas what bird this piece of music would symbolize. I'm trying to make a musical suite of birds.

Hello YC, I posted this music before but without the video it is meant to interpret. I am happy to be able to provide the whole experience now. This animated feature by the Brothers Quay is something I always wanted to score. The original score is by Leszek Jankowski, which I replaced and added FX's and foley sound to. I hope that you like it. https://www.facebook.com/100000289764062/videos/2268723976480572/

I heard Michael Manring's "Adhan", which is based on Muslim's call for prayer, and I loved it! (Manring's Adhan (link), Original Adhan (link)). So, I picked my guitar and started playing. I played some notes as background loops then started improvising in Maqam Hijaz / Phrygian Dominant mode (they're basically the same thing!) and I loved the result! I call the piece "Khorasan" because there's one of most important religious areas in Iran (because The holy Shrine of Imam Reza is placed there). DAW : FL Studio 20 Instrument : Ibanez iJRG200u FX : Efektor CH3604, Blackhole Reverb, Valhalla UberMod, Valhalla Shimmer, ReaEQ, Fruity Parametric EQ2, Fruity Compressor

After a long time, I composed a piece and I share it with you. P.S : Good news, I will release a short post-rock album as soon as possible! DAW : FL Studio VST Instruments : reFX Nexus (Piano, Cello, Strings) , EZDrummer (Electronic Expansion, 808 Kit) VST FX : DC8C (Compressor), Fruity Compressor, Fruity Parametric EQ2, Fruity Limiter

Dark wave, is one of my favorite genres in "modern" music. But, it was a long time I haven't listened to that type of music. In previous days, I was looking for music which can help me focus when I'm studying for exams, and I checked my spotify for "Sopor AEternus & The Ensemble of Shadows". I listened to their album "Dead Lovers Sarabande Vol. 2" and then, I decided to make a track similar to those tracks after my exams. In last 2 days I had 3 exams and it made me tired, but I could make this track, inspired by Sopor AEternus!

I wanted to put my Lute to the test with ambient FX, and the result is :

Greetings guys! I'm again in the world of Electronic/Ambient music. I found new tools and techniques to make this type of music and I enjoy it! I hope you enjoy 🙂

I'm sure most of you guys know about my post-rock band "Mangrove Lake Swans". The Last single I was published, called "Far away in the dark". It was my first post-rock track and I'm sure I can be much better in this genre. Now, I would like to post second single track of my one-man-band here to know your opinions about it. This is my bandcamp link : https://mangrovelakeswans.bandcamp.com/track/moonlight And song details : DAW : FL Studio Instrument : Ibanez iJRG200u VST Instruments : Addictive Keys (Grand piano preset) , FPC Drums VST FX : Fruity Reeverb 2, Blackhole Reverb, Guitar Gadgets (Niagra Falls preset), Fruity Delay, Fruity Parametric EQ2 I also posted piano part notes!

Repetitive music

I started this new one-man post-rock project, and this is the first single track I composed for this project. It's available to download from bandcamp : https://mangrovelakeswans.bandcamp.com/track/far-away-in-the-dark

Just wrote this song to test my new samples, but at the end, it really sounded good to me. Then, I decided to master the track and share it.

I'm a guitar effect nerd and I like to use different guitar effects to get different tones. This is actually why I produce metal, rock. ambient or even pop music. Because with different guitar effects, I can make different music. But, most of my effects are delays, reverbs and ambient stuff. Today I decided to make a simple guitar loop and improvise something over the loop, so I recorded a "A add9 power chord" and looped it. Then, I started recording my improvisation in A minor. Song details : DAW : FL Studio FX : Valhalla Shimmer, Valhalla Space Modulator(For synth which helps guitar drone), Fruity Delay, Fruity Compressor, Amplitube 4 ('65 Fender Reverb), Guitar Gadgets, Fruity Parametric EQ2, Mobius Looper. Instrument : Ibanez iJRG200u (electrical guitar) VST instruments : DX7 (Computer simulated Yamaha synth).

I'm really a fan of this type of music, specially when it's combined with Rock/Metal style of drums. I wrote this last night, when it was snowing here in Tehran. So, I picked my guitar, wrote some chords and start playing it. After that I started mixing and mastering all I wrote. In last week, I saw a video on guitar drones, and that guy explained "adding static drones make your songs sound better" and I decided to do this, and I started bowing my E string (actually I love the sound of Bowed guitars) and added some drones with Contrabass sound samples. DAW : FL Studio VST Plugins :Guitar Rig (Amp, Reverb, Overdrive) , Guitar Gadgets (Reverb) , Fruity Parametric EQ2 VST Instruments : FPC Drums (HQ Rock), Native Instruments Symphony Essentials (Bass) Instrument : Ibanez iJRG200u

This is the track I made today. It's just a quick composition, not that good, but I hope you enjoy!

I conceived this as a beautiful journey. I think it's a wonderful experience to close your eyes and let it wash over you. I noticed that when I listened to it a second and third time, the journey was slightly different each time. I'd be very interested in other people's experience of this piece.

Hey! I'm sure you guys know that I'm a fan of ambient music. Also, I like to experiment it on all instrument I really can play or write for. Today, I just had a challenge : Writing ambient music using only piano. So, I wrote this 15 seconds and applied lots of effects on that. The melody is in C major key and also, there's no score (because I did everything in FL studio).

Greetings! This is my first official work with bowed guitars as background. I think that bowed acoustic guitar in the background, helped to make a nice ambiance. So, I upload the track here, please let me know your opinions about it.
