I listened to "Will we ever see Hell?"

and the start reminded me initially of The Partridge Family for some reason
and then I thought nahh its more like the segues in The Brady Bunch

although the sounds your usuing
give it a commodore 64 computer
running around an enchanted cottage
game sorta feel....
its actually an interesting arrangement,,,,,

I dont know if this is helpful but I am
enjoying listening to your creation.... biggrin



cool

I normally wouldn't comment on this song, just because I can't. If I ever see hell, this is the tune they would play for my reception.

Don't be offended, I'm trying to make light. Music is such a personal taste. What makes good music? Well it's different for everyone.

I played this tune for my classically trained girlfriend who just so happens to have a masters degree in music. I asked her what she thought and she likes it! I would assume her opinion has more value to you than mine.

I think your instrumental and any that follow could use an updated soundset. There are so many options out there for you. Do a search for free samples. You should look into software samplers and interface your keyboard them with them. Presentation is one of the elements that make good music and I think if you focused on bettering your sounds the music could carry so much more depth for shallow average listeners such as myself.

thank you very much toystein for taking the time to check it out. i'm very glad to hear that a trained musician such as your girlfriend likes it. it's good to know that both untrained and trained musicians like my music. yes i know that my samples do not sound good. i am currently seeking a producer (i might have one) to get these recorded professionally with live instruments. i'm also looking for a lyricist (i've turned down many today and yesterday but i have found one and we'll see where that goes) so one day, soon, they will sound a lot better than they do now.
