I like it much better now Per, and yes, I think there is even room to bring the tempo down just a bit if you wish to do so. I think Patrik had some very good points so I will listen again once you have had an opportunity to incorporate some of his...
Enjoyable.... I think you should make inte longer... (why so short) Short, but interesting piece, sounds like something that can be developed inte something greater...
OK UPDATE!!!
I followed Anne Goodwin's advice and raise the tempo (maybe too much)
Feel free to listen and give constructive advice on for exemple how to develop i further. PAtrik, I will follow your advice, when I hace studied enough to follow y...
Last time I checked 6 is half between 7(hepta, dia) and 5 (penta)... I won't say more..

About Me:
Hey there!
All I am trying to with the excerpts of my musical production you can find on my page is to communicate an emotion, mood or an event. Nothing more, nothing less.
I do plan at some point to invest in other libraries just not right now. I am in the process of finding and paying someone who sequences great samples for a couple of my works that will be used as tracks fro various projects.
Yes, the pics are from the Trinidad Carnival....all excet two I believe. The Carenival season starts in December and ends in Feb! The Parade which is call ed the "Road March" is through the city giving people on the street a chance to see and take part and "jump up and dance" with the various sections while they make their way to the stadium for formal presentation and judgement. This all happens on the last two days of Carnival. Its starts Monday morning at 2am with dancing in the streets to rhythm and music then into the day for a less formal parage with partial costumes and this goes on until Midnight. Then Tuesday which is the official "Cranival Tuesday" is where the parage through the streets into the stadium happen and it ends at Midnight. Trinidad Carnival is the oldest in the Caribbean and older than that of Brazil. Actually, many carnivals are copies off of the form of Trinidad Carnival. There is a lot of symbolism to the Carnival but I won't go into it now as it would take up a lot of space LOL....
Here is a clip from the Sunday night before the Monday and Tuesday Parade. The Sunday is callded "Dimanche Gras" and it is used for the finals of competitions in music and costumes. This competition is called the Competition of Kings and Queens. Basically section leaders in the parade that wear HUGE costumes. The object is to dance to music while presenting the costume and what it signifies.

Yeah, the production of the first suite in A is not at all very good. But I hope to have that fixed at some point. I don't usually worry about production too much as my samples are not meant for actual use but as for demos for instrumental performance condiseration with score in hand. But the suites are different I do plan on using them for an event so I hope to have the production issues take care off.
Me too! I'm also the kind that draws notes (lines) with mouse. I wonder how many among the composers use this kind of mouse clicking rather than gears?
No wonder, the vocals are very pretty. Probably no synthesizer can match that (except the super super expensive ones).
The strings and woodwinds in my song use the cut-down version of Garritan Personal Orchestra, but the harp is from a free synthesizer so it sounds a little fake. I wonder if it's possible at all to produce good sound quality with low budget..
lol no worries, actually everyone thought I'm from Japan :)
I'm listening to your nocturne, sounds sad but pretty. What music software and synthesizers do you write it with? Are the vocals by real singers?
