    This is a good start, but I think it needs something else to hold it all together, especially during the starts and stops. The other thing that you should do is to have a melody that is recognizable. There is part of one in there, but then things sort of meander and it is hard to get into the flow of the groove.

    Dan

    Mixing is all about control.

    Thanks for listening and your constructive comments Dan. Helps to know the perspective of different listeners.
    Yeah well... this was done a year ago and I remember being in a hurry to get it done wanting to move on to another idea spinning in my head. So didn't work much on fill-ins, connectors and the supplemental ingredients in the recipe

    To me the piece sounds really great this took me back to some Good times haha As for the construction of the song. Coming from many different classical music background Fugues, Motets, Eastern and Asia classical styles. I wouldn't change or add anything but that just me.

    I was set to listen and comment but I've begun a new policy -- at least for me.  If I don't know the poster I look to see if he(she) has recently reviewed other people's songs.  If not, no review from me.  If people just put up new posts without giving a few others a courtesy review it defeats the purpose of this forum.  (And just to be clear, I'm not asking for reviews of my songs.)  I'm sure I'm not alone in my thinking on this.

    I just say no as well Allan.  But no can mean so many things, can't it!
