It's going to be hard to be original in my review.
The melody is pretty (as it often is), it's sweet and cute, and it's too short (as it often is).
It's a shame, you have a nice theme, it's worth developing.
Well, I add a challenge for you for the next jam : a music of minimum 2 min with 2 themes in the AABA form. Do you accept? Come on, say you accept!
Thank you so much :D. I found it hard designing a theme using only black notes, so I just stuck to one and kept it short. Glad all you people like it! I am sure I would have ruined it anyway if I made it longer ;)
A challenge you say? I accept!
2 themes should be doable; AABA form (just googled it) should be doable; 2 mins.... not so much, but we'll see! Though we don't know yet what the challenge is, so I might regret this xD
I don't know if you saw the theme of #9. My challenge is a bit in contradiction with the limitation, so you are exempt from the AABA. But if you want to do 2 min or more, you always can ;)
I see the theme, yes, and I also see a way to make this work :D. Whether I will though, not sure since 2 minutes is a tough job for me (especially since my courses are ending, meaning deadlines!).
We'll see :)
Very short, though very cool and simple. Nice!
Thanks! I found it hard making a song using only black notes longer :)
I really liked the minimalism of the piece. the only bad thing: it ends too soon
Thank you so much :D! Some people are so good at making these complex monsters, but I am... not! Minimalism is then the way to go!
Nice! I could hear the sound of waves in my head whilst listening to this. Didn't really want it to end so soon but it would be good to listen to the end result, nice work!
Thanks! Hearing people say "I wanted it to be longer" makes me feel really good! (especially since my family usually says "I want it to be shorter" instead xD)
I really wish this was longer! I enjoy the composition and how it's almost like a lullaby. I feel like this piece could benefit from added length and complexity, and maybe some EQing for the mix. Good job overall.
Thanks!! Also for the tips :D. I am not sure what EQing means, but it is probably some form of 'mixing and mastering', something very hard to do in Musescore.
