I love the poster! The music is insane - almost, but not quite Industrial. Hint: if you would have added some hammering sounds like steel knocking on steel going in and out of sequence, this would turn out friggin' fantastic. It would make the place look and sound like the workers are working at a midnight shift. I experimented sounds like this before using harsh noise and hisses. It works. But keep in mind that this is a composition - not something that you thought of in one afternoon. In my case - that is how I work. It has to be a composition. Also, try to end your piece by fading the song away - this makes the listener thinking at the end. Even if they ask themselves, "what the f**k did I just hear?" It will linger in their minds. If you really like to hear something that is true darkness, listen to "Iron Cthulhu Apocalypse" here on YT. This man has been around for years and I Subscribed to his Channel - plus he helped me by referring to an old tool site from the Internet Archives to make dark sounds. This was a few years ago and I still use it from time to time although I use many plugin effects to create my sounds and even some field recordings. I like your stuff - keep it up. Please keep in mind - you are an artist and I respect that. I'm just trying to give some hints and advice and maybe, you might try to change lanes once in while - I did :) Take care.

I feel like I change lanes often. I have created hundreds of tracks these past couple of years and uploaded videos to several different channels. I create on a manic basis. I don’t labor over my tracks. I’m guided by intuition. I don’t know the first thing about music theory, cannot play any chords. But thanks for the feedback and suggestions.

And respectfully I am not thematic. I avoid the obvious.

@@whoaaudio Hi :) Yes, I know what you mean. I myself have hundreds of saved music tracks over the years and so rather than creating new tracks - if I'm not experimenting with a new VST synth - I don't really have to do it. Just start using the ones I already have. However, if I'm thinking of a theme, like a season theme - Autumn - I like to create something special. This is where I get picky. I also collaborate with other artists from around the world so even at that, our work has to be perfect. Working with just intuition and experimenting with various sounds helps me to learn more plus I love watching documentaries about past musicians and synth players who made - and changed - the world of synth music. Just last October of 2023, I bought a M-AUDIO Keystation Mini 32 Midi Keyboard which helps me a lot to learn how to play. It's really cool. The last time I ever played the piano was when I was in Grade 4 when my parents took me to take piano lessons. (If only they could see me now :) So ya, if you're interested in buying a keyboard like the one I have, check out AMAZON. They have some good ones. I bought mine for $60. It's worth it and I love playing it. Okay, maybe you and I won't be the next Vangelis or Emerson, Lake and Palmer, (ELP) but at least we have our special talent that is different from the others. Take care and keep on changing those lanes :)

@@janetcraftjust went to my son’s first piano recital tonight. He’s 16. Played his own composition. I was humbled. Will check out keyboards at amazon. Thanks for all the feedback and suggestions, much appreciated! ✨💜✨
