[Fading (Piano Improv)]

Fucking improv? Shit, man. This sounds so well measured, it's like a movie score. Great job with this.

If this is your improv, I'm about to see what you written stuff is like.

BlazingDragon responds:

Thanks man. To be honest though, I think my improv is about as good, and sometimes better, than my written stuff.

A lot of my improvisations are pretty bland, and those don't usually get uploaded. But when something intense is happening in my life, I tend to channel it into improv. Those improvs, the ones pulled from genuine emotions in the moment, are often just as good as anything I've composed.

A lot of people today see improvising as a sort of watered down version of composing. I see them as two related but alternative processes, each with distinct qualities and charms.

[Reboot]

damn dude. That intro had me unfazed until the sound was getting fucked with, then I was interested. Then the song really kicked in and I really like what I heard. Cool metal riffage and fantastic voice.

That's all it is tho, just badass riffage and a great metal voice. Not saying it's a bad thing, it's just a short piece.

LunyAlex responds:

Thank you. And thanks for the feedback. I'd definitely agree that I need to challenge myself a bit more in terms of song length, structure and diversity.

[Children's Overture]

It's a swirling wonderland of sparkling, musical pleasure. I can feel my senses filling with cascading sense of comfort and excitement as if I were walking through an enchanted walkway unknown to the adventurous and frivolous journey that lies ahead of me, after a grip of shrooms.

No but really, this is great. Good job!

BlazingDragon responds:

I wouldn't know what that feels like honestly but will try my best to imagine it. Hmmm....That was unusual. :p

Thank you for the kind words!

[Car Chase intro]

The influence is heard.

Yeah, I could hear Car Chase City a little bit in the bass intro. Nice job, it's pretty badass.

yeeyahyo responds:

Thanks man, I kept redoing the guitar work cause i wanted it to be as clean as possible, I rushed the bass a bit, but all in all i think it sounds awesome
