Eclipse

Hey people would love some feedback on this track :) please criticize the crap out of it if you want - anything is welcome. Thanks guys, your input has shaped my composing more than i can express and I appreciate and value every word of it.

Hello Ben Maier,

I love its !  I love the violin part with the piano everything is very well mix.

well done.

This is a great composition!

I like the ambience in it and the cinematic feel as it develops a lot. The levels and such are spot on too.

Structure also seems good, it develops fast enough to not feel repetitive but also not so fast that it begins to feel rushed.

Good work!

@Arkh @Slazeus Thankyou for the kind words :) Im glad you enjoyed it. Im also wondering how you react to replies and content coz i cant find anywhere on this to do it haha.

Musically this is TOTALLY EXCELLENT!!!  Love everything, the outdo is great too.  The only thing I could possibly suggest, is a bit of master EQ..  Consider a bit of a notch in the mids,  the high violins in the center, as they carry the piece.  low parts  a bit louder.. Epiano maybe a bit louder, and have it walk across the stereo field.  (just my personal taste.. 

Excellent composition,  compositionally strong, very good transitions to new segments.  Love it.. 

@Ben Maier You're most welcome! 

I believe (on PC anyway, not sure about other platforms) if you hover over the love heart at the bottom right of content or replies you can choose a reaction or emoji there. 

I also like it. It's evocative and soft...

@markstyles Thats a good point with the EQing. I think i still have a bit to learn on the mastering part so thanks for your feedback :) 

an old trick is to import a mastered two track piece, into you DAW project,   Solo the external piece with individual tracks of yours,  Say your strings alone, with the commercial track.. 

Ignore key and timing clashes, just listen for the EQ aspect of it..  Same with different tracks. Often the solution with individual tracks, is to notch down bands, rather than boost them.

Also play your piece on a couple of different systems, and headphones..  You want to strive for a mix that sounds the best it can on different set-ups.. So it becomes a  bit of a compromise..
