    Hi.

    Here's my new tune, not that much going on, but I kinda like it. Please share your criticism. Sorry for not embedding it, media tag doesn't work for me

    The link is perfect so no problem

    Like the break at 1:16. And the bass sound.

    Intro is too long and only adding volume? Autofilter, delay or some other effects would be nice.
    That sound starting at 0:15 sec. It is too much in the song. Same for the vocal. It is too much there, in repetitive way. Less is more and your song can be made longer this way.

    If you hear the first 8 seconds after that long intro of exactly one minute, you have heard enough.

    Dunno what you had in mind. What kinda genre song?

    Thanks for your critique.

    I wasn't going for any particular genre, I was just making the beat. I usually do that.

    Your critique is probably on point, I just didn't hear it due to ear fatique and the fact I made the song in one long session and didn't listened to it later with some distance, so it seemed kinda normal and without problem to me.

    It happens sometime :). It combined with my bad musicianship and here's the result.

    This is why criticism is important - I learned something which would be much harder to hear without your opinion.

    Thanks for that.

    Thx for your message. Nice to read. Criticism is also my way to make better productions. And im far of a good production.

    If you were a bad musician, you couldnt produce a song like this. So dont be too hard on yourself. Just make music you like, listen how others make songs and learn from the advice and people around you.
