EsteveCorbera Diversio Guitarrera This tune makes me pretty tense. I think it’s the bassline? It doesn’t exactly clash, but it never gives me the resolution I’m craving. The progression though is satisfying, when it resolves around 2:20 and the guitar kicks in, that’s catchy. Thank you for the earl...

I’m one of those guitar guys so I really wanted to enter something this month. I kept it simple. You get one key and one chord change that’s it. It's not metal it's southern rock motorik?

Re: SONGWRITING COMPETITION - SWC044 April 2021 - Winners announced
I really enjoyed listening to the entries this month. I dig a lot of fusion, and find the big personalities and egos that were involved back in the day fascinating. I'll pass on the prize this month. Thanks everyone for the feedback, just some comments: Blang - I agree a recurring theme would have e...

Feedback: ------ Dadamachado - Hupft We’re definitely taking the funk road here. The bass guitar is giving this a lot of personality, and I appreciate the big accents and fills they’re playing. Primary melody hits hard and evokes the era with the layered moog lead. Keys sound great throughout, and ...

This is my entry called Warlock. It's inspired by In a Silent Way and Bitches Brew. Chaos comes and goes and during changes I tried to capture that spliced together feel of the original albums. The track is way too compact for the genre, but I have a short attention span when it comes to my own musi...

Nice work everyone I'm always amazed at skill and creativity of you all. Unreal. BTW I have no idea what chill out means. Chill out to me is like 'In a Silent Way' I guess. ollyaudio Short themes inside the main melody. I appreciate the chord movement - constant change benefits the two piano tracks....

Hi - I went for a guitar based instrumental laid back track. I tried to keep it moving around. Some hyped up parts ended up in the song because they fit so well and then they were in my head and I couldn't hear the song without them. So maybe not completely chilled out but it definitely has a vibe l...

Congrats to Olli H with a well deserved win, and the other podium winners. Thank you to everyone for the feedback on my song. It's true, the TV edit was too long lol. I was really grooving to the simple progression though, and wanted to let it run it's course with the descending melody and orchestra...

Honestly these are all tied. Each one has super positive aspects to recommend it as the winner. The pop of ryanc, Oli the Cat's jazzy swing and great vocals, Moses' awesome composition and energy, and Olli H's perfect companion to a walk in an actual magic forest. gruskada "Oli the Cat" Vo...

https://imgur.com/Arlroxm.jpg I've composed the theme song for a grim and gripping british detective show, SHELLHOUND. I wanted the intro theme to be interesting enough for someone watching the show to comment to another friend, "Hey, this theme song rips". And the other friend says, &quo...
