"Thanks Raymond, I definitely get what you mean by rumble now ;)
I'm mixing using a pair of headphones, the Sennheiser HD380 Pro. I still don't have good monitors but these headphones have a really nice frequency response and I learnt how to use…"

"I'm a huge fan of atonal music. One of my favourite composers is Ligeti, who I think created some of the greatest compositions in the whole 20th century. I agree with who mentioned Charles Ives before, this is clearly inspired by him (and Hymnen by…"
"Here it is the track after I used the new mastering chain. Basically it's some EQ, warm tube and tape plugin, bass maximizer, compressor, stereo widener, clipper and limiter. I think it sounds better and brighter, maybe I could work a little bit…"
"@Bob: I get what you're saying now. You're right and I noticed that this problem came out after the mastering phase, that's probably due to the fact that I was using a different chain when I mastered it. I should try using the new one (which is far…"
"Thanks for the reply! You're right, working with games is a lot of fun ;)
I should have specified that they asked me a dramatic music for the menu (and more scary themes for the gameplay, which I'm working on right now) so I avoided using…"

"I have to agree with them, it's lacking a lot on the low frequencies and general loudness (is that the version after mastering?). I'm using a pair of Sennheiser HD380Pro which have a really good frequency response. I think you should play more with…"
"To Raymond:
Thank you very much for your comment. You're right, there's little headroom at the end, although I tried fixing the problem with some upward expansion but anyway I need to work more on my mixing skills! About the snare, that's an effect…"

"I like your track, it has a lot of details and shifts in moods which makes it interesting to listen to all the way trough. I do think the EQ could have been done better too much treble for my ears.
I have been thinking of doing something similar…"

"I can give you the numbers I've seen in my field, videogames. Usually you charge 4-500$ per minute of music if you're a beginner. You can reach 800$ if you have some past experience and more if you're working on a AAA game (but then you even have a…"
"Thank you very much, really helpful. And many compliments again, wish you all the best! Mihkel Zilmer said:
Thank you Ray, much appreciated!
And thank you Aram, I tend to pick bit and pieces from many different libraries, here's a full list of…"

You are perfectly right, this was a mash-up of styles with 70% Danny Elfman and 25% Dukas, Vierne. The 5% of my own style is probably not recognizable but I was not interested in that. The purpose of this music…"

"Everything was very good and I can hear the Danny Elfman inspiration in the music, perhaps a little too much. Orchestration was spot on and it sounded very good and professional, but I felt the music was a little to reminiscent of film scores such…"
"That's not bad, some good ideas. But I have to agree with Raymond, this is not really jazz. A good example to study (how many hours I spent analyzing him :) ) is Bill Evans. Try listening to the rythm and tempo in this…"
"Truly beautiful. You have a new follower on Soundcloud :)
May I ask which libraries did you use?"

Well the lack of development is done on purpose because it's written as a trailer music and it was used to emphasize other videos. I'm afraid I don't have the score, I had so little time that I recorded everything in the DAW without bothering…"

"Hi. It is not bad, but lacks development IMHO.
Can you show the score?"
