Not entirely awful. MrToiletClogger is right, though. It just seems to lack emotion. I blame the keyboard, but there's also no... flow to it, I guess. Hard to describe. It's too mechanic. Not bad, if you're a beginner.
even though your probably more talented than I'll ever be and i shouldnt say anything much, i would love to see more dynamics, more soft-to-loud, more flow, more slow-to-fast.... but it was great honestly, i wish i could create an original song :)
Thanks. Yea I agree. My original title is actually called Journey! lol! However, I am mainly looking for adjectives that accurately describe the song and at the same time attract peoples attention. People look at the key words rather than the name of the song (If it is original).
The tags seem to be working! lol! Check my second composition on my channel page - my second composition seems to be way more popular than this one. Any feedback would be appreciated.
Hi Derek, nice job, have you ever thought about investing in a better keyboard, one that is touch sensitive? I hook my MIDI keyboard up to my computer and run a soft synth piano. The sound quality is much better than you would get on a standard keyboard and much more expressive. Keep at it!
Thanks. It can be set to be touch sensitive but it just seems to make it worse. I am getting a piano soon, and I would like to record it on a real piano for the reasons you have already outlined.
Yea, true. I don't think it's amazing and I think there is a lot of improvement required. I only labelled it as Amazing to actually get people to look at it - there's a lot of competition out there and It's hard to stand out. Have you checked out my second composition?
Hey everyone! Does anyone have any ideas as to what title I could use for this piano song? The problem is that the title needs to be relevant to the mood of the song, but It also needs to contain key words that people commonly search for when they are looking for piano music/compositions. I look forward to hearing your everyone's ideas.
That's exactly what I was thinking! lol! Oh by the way, I have asked people to tell me if they would like a tutorial or sheet music for the Sad Piano Song - I have gotten a couple of requests, but I'll wait till there is a few more.
Hi everyone. If you know any friends or family that might like to hear my music show it to them and encourage them to make comments - I would like to share my music with as many people as possible, and you guys can make a huge contribution to the success of this video!
Hi Derek, its me Jacob. yeah just checking out your two songs.. fuck~ my exams are all done and i feel so.. like disorientated and dunno what to do.. ect.. but i came here and listen to your music, it feels good man, a calming effect watever.. haha ~ im gonna get the band together and play some songs in couple of weeks.. you are welcome to come along and muck around.. we need to finish that subway song haha
Thank you! Have you checked out my other composition? - it kind of has a coldplay sound to it as well - kind of like the song "trouble" that Chris Martin wrote... I will be putting some more tunes up soon, so feel free to suscribe if you would like to hear more...
Nice composition, great job on the chords too, when I play piano myself (my compositions were made on the pc), I find it hard playing both hands, so the pc just is better to me =P
Thanks for the positive feedback - I would like to know more about mixing music etc... I think that as long as you have the music in your head and how the different instruments go together you can write good music without having to know how to play any instruments
Thanks for the feedback IRISLIGHT07. I have sent you an email and have "shared your channel" - I don't know what it does but If you do the same for me we can find out. I also emailed you some ideas related to getting more youtube views - I was wondering If you had any ideas

i find that if you add depth in the bass by alternation it helps a lot ,maybe if you slow the bass down it'll sound better

I would say enlightenment for the title. Just because it seems to open up to some greater thought like a journey. great song.
