I've just completed the first side of my new album, you can hear it here:

A quick listen probably doesn't do justice to a full side. It does sound thought out, but I have some doubts about the guitar work (clearly not your main instrument). I'll have a longer listen some time in the coming days.

Ok I listened to 2 min. On plus side, you have advanced sense of the value of dynamics, even an artistic sense. The chord progression intro had some charm, also a good thing you can't teach.
Now, the first bad flaw was the piano theme, with repeated variations. I use word theme mercifully here. You've really got to have a more Musically complex and compelling phrases.   The melody must Surprise, yet be justified in context.
The intro itself is really just chords. Melody, even in the form of the guitar starting Close to the Edge, is imperative.
For practice and Real composition, I recommend playing something Strange! Then add different experiments to it, till one of them seems to Belong with that Strange thing. Let the creature become what it wants to,
Finally, nothing in your neocortex can thru logic or reason tell you what is beautiful, in a woman or music. Opening up your subconscious is the only way to create art.

Sorry for the repeat, but first attempt gave me a SERVER ERROR 505

Thanks Ata. By the way, when the viruses, or nanomachines or ai's are wiping humanity from earth, what time period are you going to escape to?
Even if She's there im not going to the arctic.

I guess I oughta restate the 2 min thing another way. Or ways:
1. A billion albums have been made that couldn't equal the 2 min of She Loves You. They were shipped to oblivion.
2. Every 10 seconds of any great music is great both in itself and in its contribution to the compelling integrity of the whole piece. ...Baby one more time, Go all the way, Mapleleaf rag, Spem in alum.
3. More music after bad music is not listened to.
4. You can write great music. But all the great composers started first in their careers by attempting to concentrate as much musical pleasure andor profundity into as small a space as they could. Time and A Word is a good song. A required stepping stone to the landscape of Close to the Edge.
5. You might need a fellow composer competitor as Lennon needed McCartney, so that you can stop wasting your own time.
6. Yoda : A lot of trial and error in writing music, there is. Errors kept alive, hugged and cherished not to be are.   Me: Time spent on further journeys into the mediocre could be better spent on the first 2 minutes of greatness.
7. Don't build up to the best part. Start with it! When people are giving you money, then you can write an intro.

Do look at my motivation to assist as the praise andor applause.
Yes over time we become better at recognizing quality, and write write write is best plan. You have real talent, as I've said. If you have genius, then you can discern useful criticism ( I should say genuine attempts at helpful steering) from that which gives you nothing, and would rather eat the former than dinner.
