I think your piece would be improved with a contrasting musical idea or metamorphosis of the idea you have. How about a B section? The slight variations on the melody and arrangement aren't enough to keep my interest.

Thank you ron in wa for taking the time to listen and then comment on this recording.

This music was produced to utilise my Roland Guitar Synth - all the tracks were played live and layered over 2 Orchestral percussion samples. I only spent the time it took to play each track so it was a fast in the moment spontaneous creation. I use this to play to pupils who are astonished when I tell them I play all the sounds from a guitar !!.

Secondly I don't take myself too seriously and posted this track as a demonstration piece more than a work of musical genius. The ability to record into Mixcraft directly whilst using my Roland Guitar Synth is the main reason for creating this music.

Thirdly I have posted this track elsewhere and not only is it listened to it actually gets a few "likes".

So it goes to show how music is very subjective - placing your music in a Forum like this may attract the odd negative comment but that's ok it is interesting to get the opinions and impressions from others of the music I create.

I see you haven't posted any music yet - I wait with great anticipation - it will be interesting to hear your music.

Neil, please take my comment as a suggestion for improvement rather than as an "odd negative comment". It is completely alright with me that you created it for your specific purpose. I agree that we all shouldn't take ourselves or our music too seriously. I encourage you to keep creating and be true to yourself.

I have posted a piece that I wrote. I hope you can comment on it in the spirit above.
