good job recording the trombone. very clean, forward sound, and good job playing it. i'd like to see what you could do with something like this if it ended up in a remix.

"Good Musical Idea"

submission: the ska song (jazz versionwip)

date: March 7, 2008

I like this idea a lot. If you want your guitar tracks to stand out a bit more, you could try putting an equalizer on them. I like the tone they have. If you raise the 800-1000 hz range, it will make them more throaty, but that will give you more of a classical sound. if you want them to have more bite, try a boost in the 2000-4000 hz range. if you're satisfied with their presence, you can always make them sound a little more detailed by boosting the eq above 10k. be careful with eq though. it's easy to ruin a good track... i would know :-) also, i'd love to hear some real gentle jazz drumming with this, like brushes on a ride and snare, with a soft kick, but i'd keep the beat fast, this song has a lot of energy, despite how quiet it is, which is something you don't run into a lot. all in all, though, it's a great track. thanks for submitting it :-)

"Needs a change-up"

submission: Winter (Extended)

date: March 6, 2008

piano is good, and your choice in chord structure is appropriate to the theme, but you need to go somewhere rhythmically and melodically

Do I now? And how do you suppose? Rhythmically and melodically this track is perfectly balanced so I'm not sure... maybe you are tone deaf? I'm pretty sure you threw "Rhythm and Melody" in there to make it seem like a valid point... but that really made no sense at all. It is a piano piece/movement, so how does it need to go "somewhere"? Did you even listen to the song or did you sit and listen to the beginning repeat for a few bars and go "it's not changing WOW!!!"?
