April 13, 201015 yr This is My Composition made in Garage Band. Its only experimental. I thought it was nice so enjoy =D. Its not classical, its more like an R&B piece. I'm a piano student, I decide to put my own style into it. Its in Aminor/Cmajor. Darken
April 13, 201015 yr Welcome to YC Electronic... Hey very good, I rarely find chromatic progressions on elec pieces. Are you using a CC for the piano pedal ? it sounds interrupted at some points, which software did you use to create this ? The new element at 1:17 sounds very nice. The structure's growing process is very good, but after 2min it begins to sound repetitive, I think you could re-introduce the C major segment a second time, you have many A, G#, G, F# .... but only once of C, B, Bb, A ....
April 14, 201015 yr Author I used garage band =D. I could only find one melody at that moment, and manage to find a key change to it. Its experimental so I'll make a future update. Thank you for your suggestion =D
April 19, 201015 yr I also liked the chromatic element in the piece. There are some really cool atmospheric sounds at the background. I couldn't help but notice that instruments are badly mixed. There are drums, doing some stuff but hardly heard. And piano at one point dominates everything else that is in the back. I am sure that was an intended decision but since your piano line is quite repetitive (which is fine) you need to introduce some other stuff to get rid of that repetitiveness. What other stuff? Well you already have other instruments playing in the back, why not make volume automations and make them louder or quiter at some places instead of a static volume level? One other criticism, I believe that you can do a lot better LH line. It's quite tiring to listen all those 8th notes stacked one next to the other. I think it is a great atmospheric and chromatic piece which only a few small adjustments could make it much better.
April 21, 201015 yr Author Thank's for the Advice. I'll put your words in to action in the next piece I'm going to do. =D. I'm not sure how to do volume automations, but once I get to mic my Keyboard,I'll be sure to add some new stuff (its quite hard to add new stuff in to Garage band )
