You need to have more. This music is amazing if you can just put it on and doze off for an hour or two n_n

hehe, well im just trying to make that kind of music for now, that relaxes me and mellows me out, its the only half decent guitar sound I can get at the moment, my distortions suck

s.a.y

I like the sound in both of the songs, reverb with a clean sound sounds great.

Add some more rhythm into the first composition and it's all good.

Seems I missed your blog the first time around, but as that's no longer the case, I must say I found 'Distance' quite good.'Dreamless' had a nice flow and tension to it, and these two above sounded more refined. As far as my own taste goes, I would love to hear something a little 'harder', meaning I'd like a pinch more of dynamism or/and a slightly more alert rhythm. I can understand if you're attempting to express something rather calm and meditative, and not so much energetic. That's certainly the way I perceived your pieces, I was just making a suggestion based on my own likes and dislikes.

Also if you would like to consider creating more 'dramatic' portions in your songs, I feel that what you already composed could work quite efficiently as build-up or tension-builder, after which the 'stronger' part could follow.

These are only suggestions, I'm not really knowledgeable in the musical field. Likely I don't know what I'm saying.

On another note, coincidently I remembered a few days ago that your said earlier this summer that you'll try something like this, and I was wondering if you've ever gotten around to actually create anything. Sincerely, I think you have above-decent potential to end up composing really amazing shit.

Keep it up!

PS: I mentioned the word energetic, but I don't mean I'd like to feel a different mood or atmosphere, rather just a stronger sound. The mood I found to be one of the best aspects of your work so far, even if it was a little simplistic here and there.

thanks a lot for the feedback I appreciate it. I would like to try do something a bit more aggressive and energetic, but im still trying to figure out a good distorted sound and im still figuring out how to compose in general, im having the most trouble with figuring out good transitions between slower and faster parts and in general linking my riffs together, I guess more will come with time, also I just finally got a decent drum program so thats gonna help a ton I think.

Id still love to use your photographs if I ever make anything good though
