April 22, 201015 yr I did this through Guitar Pro. This is the first rock song (I guess thats what its classified as) that I wrote all instruments for. My Main instrument is guitar and I play a little piano. Drums are not a strong suit. Please critique. I have this feeling somethings off about it but I cant tell if its just because it has no lyrics. Yey
April 28, 201015 yr Well I can tell you right off that the drums are pretty inconsistent. You have a nice guitar theme, and a decent development. You would want to cut down on the fills a bit on the drums, especially in the beginning of the chorus you have a fill on the upbeat which sounds akward, unless you're in prog rock. I don't really like the break-down part with the tom beat, it doesn't really go with the nice cheerful mood you've set up in the beginning. And the ending is a bit abrupt and doesn't really sound like an ending. You might want to check out cadences and their usage if you're not familiar with them.
April 30, 201015 yr While the hook was memorable, the chorus was not. The bridge was also very nice as it builds up pressure, but then there is no chorus to unleash the pressure !!! Ahhh >_< You also add a little loop at the end for a guitar solo, but you didn't really add a solo. Don't give up yet, there is still more potential to this song.
