The music is kindling. Stirs up a certain feeling within me. But the middle part, seems very rock-ish, and sounds very modern in fact. I'm very curious how you came up with this kind of combination. You seem very knowledgeable in using the drums, but you're too sporadic with them... if you're going to have a drum section, you should do it more. In addition, you could fill out some parts more... especially the piano sections, adding strings and a bass would help in creating more of a fuller atmosphere.

I'm really honest with my words so please forgive me if I don't offer as much praise as other people do. I only give my first unfiltered impression, and hopefully it will encourage you rather than the opposite.

Thank you very much for taking time to drop me some critics and suggestions. You are right, there certainly are things to be done before this work can be considered completed. Imho, the drums also could be enriched. In later works I had time to improve their usage, but I didn't return back yet to improve the older works. This mp3 was recorded at least six years ago. :)

Regarding your question, I do not hesitate to use all the instruments I can get in case it just feels right to do so.

I think your approach (of using instruments that feel right) is really great. In some ways it's the opposite of the approach I've been using to inspire myself, which is having the instrumentation determined through a random process. Being a somewhat indecisive person, I admire your decisiveness in knowing what feels right! The excerpt sounds great--I'd love to hear the entire piece, especially in regards to how the different materials develop and interact with one another. There are many surprises within just this short segment--I like the spontaneity they generate.

wowo ,, so pop :lol: :lol:
