If I'd be making a horror game or movie you would be the first person I'd ask for collaboration!
Atonal music, it's so unsettling, chaotic but it has something extremely interesting!
You are mastering this art in a masterful way, I'm amazed by some of your creations!

I like your style! I really enjoy especially your orchestral productions! It's very intense, full of suspense, relentlessly epic like we don't hear often. The voice makes it sound like entering the gates of Hell! War comes to mind pretty evocatively!

This is simply beautiful! Words sometimes couldn't explain the feelings evoked by a song or a piece, I think it's testament of high level of musicality that I find in this one. It brought a tear to my eyes, and filled my heart with warm feeling. It's a sad and nostalgic song, but it also evokes the feeling of being missed, being appreciated no matter the hardship, the distance. There is this "equivocal" feeling in nostalgic thoughts. It's like sadness charged with positive emotions. I feel it strongly in this song. Both music and lyrics evoke nostalgia, it makes it that much more powerful.

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Why thank you, Solacitude! You write such beautiful compositions that it means a lot to hear this piece made you feel emotional <3

I really like this approach as well, especially when inspiration is lacking.
Starting very simple and limiting choices helps focusing on musicality.
Then make it evolve while keeping the essence of the original theme.
You're very good at orchestrating your ideas and making coherent evolutions of those themes!

HollandAlbright responds:

Thanks so much! It became a good exercise in arranging a theme in different ways. Simplicity can really help with creativity sometimes, and agree re limiting choices. :)

Quite chill, and quite sad. Simply beautiful, the vibe and all the perfect imperfections.

I'm sure you get into a nice place when playing these pieces.
Your mind speaks through your music, I really like your style, simple and beautiful, emotionally engaging.

WouterPiano responds:

Yes i do, i hear music in my mind all the time. Hope to make more music! Thanks!

Lovely piece!
I'm just discovering you, you got some quite nice compositions.
I love the way you use dynamic and play with tempo. Mix is clean. Simple and beautiful.

I would use more rubato between phrases in the first half, like at 30-31s, 50s leading to higher note, around 1:17. But it's really just a matter of personal taste. Piano is such a beautiful instrument! Have you been playing the piano for a long time? This piece has a an improvisational feel to it, quite nice choice of harmonies. You're very talented!

WouterPiano responds:

Thank you very much! I play piano from 4 years old and now im allmost 35. Allso done musical education and perform allmost weekly in my neighborhood. At home i play dayly. Its a real passion for me. Thanks for listening!!

Very nice!
I'm not a big fan of cabaret music in general, but you master it in a beautiful enough fashion to hold my attention until the end. You have a voice that fits magically well with it! The effects also add this typical flavor we find in many songs in this genre. What you did here is on par with what I would expect from a professional musical production. Hats off to you!

trixelbit responds:

You know, I really struggled with assigning a genre to my songs. This one especially. I never heard of cabaret music till your comment but searching either gives me clips from a movie or a playlist with Frank Sinatra, and im not sure which is defining of the genre.

If you got a song from that genre, please send a link, I'm curious!

I'm really glad you enjoyed the song though! I will certainly be taking that hat since I've lost hair from completing this lol

Nice job! I like the thematic you associate with it. It often only takes a little bit of perspective, and the darkness can turn into light.

There's a funny vibe to it, I would see this in a cartoon, alternating between different scenes to fit the flavor of the current mode.

Everratic responds:

Thank you! Yeah it has a whimsical, cartoony vibe.

Very well done! Quite unique, lots of originality, it often lacks in cinematic music.
It sounds good all the way, everything merge well, that's a high potential for NGUAC top placements for sure!

etherealwinds responds:

Wow, what a kind comment. That means a lot, especially coming from you, so thank you! Your track this round was definitely one of the standouts for me, personally. <3

My keyboard is my refuge, where I can find solace in solitude. I'm focused on piano composition and improv, alternating between light and darkness, it may evoke melancholy, hope, resolve, nostalgia, torment, peace ❤
