I appreciate your opinion and it is okay if you don't like something about my music, sometimes I don't like my music too, but don't let labels lead you in the world of creativity, these are names just to introduce them not the definition of them. Thank you again for your comment Kvothe

I did not say I do not like. I said it is too short. Flush it out. Make it longer.

That's all I had for this piece, and that's maybe an "issue" with me, I make a lot of short pieces that I can't keep them going In any possible way and pieces that I can never finish, if you go to my Instagram account I have like 200 highlights with different pieces in approximately each one  and that's the half of all the pieces that I have in my phone, I have some "big" pieces but not a lot.

So maybe the next step would be to finish a longer piece, as it takes more skill to do so. Finishing 1 piece would be better than several unfinished pieces!

Music it's not about skill Henry, I can't push for a continuation of something that doesn't inspire me to continue, and I can't push something to become bigger avoiding where my inspiration gives an end. Music requires inspiration first and then skill, don't you think? Music is not work, but a way of expression and release. I'm trying to get it done but I will never see it as a "must" or as a definition of how skilled or not I am, I hope you will do the same Henry

Well Music is not just about skill, but it doesn't mean it do not require skill. Since you already have inspiration in the first place, so why don't you develop your skills to help inspire yourself more? Skill and inspirations are never opposing, but rather assist each other. Of course composing is always a personal thing and if you would like to compose sketches it will be fine. But if you check out my works, I am sure both inspiration and skills exist in it.

I tried to show you something deeper not to show that skill doesn't mean anything my words was: "Music requires inspiration first and then skill, don't you think?" I already checked out your works and I appreciate them, I also said that I have completed pieces and some bigger ones but there is no must in it and this doesn't define any kind of skill, I also suggest you to listen some of my a "bit bigger" full pieces and some highlights from my Instagram to get a bigger image of how I'm thinking it, thank you for your time Henry.
