Why the daft title?  Don't know really.  Just seemed to suit it.  Music Maker Premium 2013, before the machine it was on had a hissy fit and died.  Based around an arp in the free Alchemy player.  Ambient - chill out seemed closest to what it does for me, but apologies if others disagree.  Thanks for listening, if you do.

Thanks for taking the time to leave another comment, Franco.  Appreciated as always.

This isn't using any Magix loops though.  This is using midi instruments programmed in the matrix editor.  Making your own loops from scratch, basically.  If you've not played with that option yet, it's really worth a look.

strange, but has some cool parts! I think there can be some more patterns (for meloday, some drums and maybe some strings) Also it would be nice, when it has more structure (maybe less different melodies) 

I'm so sorry, but my english is horrible... hope u understand me *smile*

I think it's good, but can be better, and it will be better with the time... ;) hope u will not beeing angry, when i give 3 points for it!? 

And thx so much for ur review for my song!! Makes me really happy!!!! ;)

Regards

Hi Marc,

Many thanks for taking the time for such a considered comment.  Constructive criticism is really helpful, thank you.  How else am I going to improve?  This tune was as good as I could make it when it was done, and as a non-musician the chances of it hitting the mark were always going to be slim.  The steep learning curve arcs away from me into the far distance.

Your English is far better than my awful French, or even worse German, by the way.  Good for you.

Cheers,
Nick

 

Thanks also to VampireX and quentersiegert for their kind comments also.

Hi Nick,

Not bad for a first go round.  Though I must agree with Marc in one area.  There are several different melodies happening at the same time which at some points makes the song a little busy.  But this has a lot of potential.  I like your creativity the way you pieced it together.  This can and will work.  Awesome job Nick.  I give you 4 *.
