Topic: Losing it All

Lot's of updates around song cohesion and personality. Right now I think it's my best song yet from my generation system, but tomorrow I might hear all the flaws so I better enjoy the moment

The highlights of this piece include the section from the 1:00 mark onwards, as well as the part between 2:38 -  2:50. They sound like little improvisations set against the otherwise calm tempo. Your music would really benefit from more variations like these — and perhaps some changes in key, too. That longer passage from 2:38 to 2:50 made things immediately very interesting. Love it! Good effort! In my opinion among your best.

Given the title "Losing it all," I hope you don’t mean losing control with your composing…
You’ve already done a great job.
Keep going!

Best wishes,

Stig

very interesting, i'm not sure what tweaks were made but it does have a different feel than some of the others.

Hi Stig, your input is spot on and I agree fully. I have explored key and scale variations but programatically I am still struggling to make that a smooth transition. I know the execution approaches but haven't gotten the implementation to do it.

Haha no, the title isn't tied to anything real, just gave me that sense when I listen to it.

Thanks, that is encouraging because so many times I have done a bunch of changes and the results still come out sounding the same. This has too many changes to list but it still does feel tied to the original framework system I built.

The improvement in song structure and phrasing is huge!
The track flows smoothly and carries a distinct personality.
Outstanding work on the generation updates!

Thank you Carmelo! I hope are won't become afraid to make updates, I have moved backwards from time to time when making "improvements"
