I started up with simple experiments with techno like 'dunc dunc' drums. Added a similar absolutely non-complex base. I had no plan of making a "song", I just played around with instruments, loops and effects. But suddenly I realiced I was going somewhere.....

I am a Norvegian man just rounded 60 years of age. I have always been very fond of music, of almost any kind and category. I did, however, prefer the Beatles as a teenager, and not the Rooling Stones. Those days this was importent. I guess I even then tended to prefer the more artistic composistions and performings rather than pure rock'n roll.

I don't play any instruments. I learned a lot of chords on a guitar as a youngster, and now I can play them on a keyboard. I can even "invent" some nice small melody fragments, but they are like dreams disolving before I can  materialize them.

About two years ago I googled some keywords that quickly lead me to the magic world of MAGIX. I could not believe what I read and saw. The Universe of my dreams available for a surpricingly low cost. For a long time I played around and puzzled together a lot of small loops and fragments. But again the challange was to merge them together into something I could call a "song".

Now I'm here, working on half a dozen "projects", slowly but with progress improving them as wall as my skills and Magix knowledge. However, I missed feedback and comments. I checked this site and desided to give it a try.

I know nothing about music. Only listened .. Using technology also makes possible for me to be able to make music.

  I am also into photography amateur.

I'm not here for stars score but coment with advice for improvement of my music.


at my coment on music of others, I remain honest. this must be mutual .

I give my voice just as public and not as someone who knows something from music.

 I'm open to all criticism. I want to learn something

greeting

Kind of mellow, dystopian industrial - if that actually means anything.  Having listened to quite a lot of electronic music, including dark ambient, I have more patience about the gradual introduction of new elements.  The whole point is the almost imperceptable changes.  This is nice.

it's your first song I listen to, I do not know your musical training, so my opinion is related to what I've heard.
the rhythm that you used is without doubt chillout, the effects seem delicate and well integrated into the song, maybe there are points where the music is too repetitive, but listening is still enjoyable.
the song on the whole I am not sorry
