spam - orchestral stuff

So after two weeks of work I finally got my little suite
done.
Now it's time to face the criticism.

Any criticism appreciated on this, I consider it some of my
best orchestral work to date though..

Your add on synths that build up the melody are great, but
the initial (constant) repeating melody itself gets
tiresome. Luckily you managed to change it here and there,
which was refreshing.

I've heard alot of your music and this one most definitely
falls into an 'epic' category for you. Long and ever
changing, great choice of synths, and catchy melodies. My
only advice is that you need to deviate from your style
sooner or later, the fast paced 1-2 pattern bar loops that
always repeat may be a stronghold for cohesion, but don't
rely on it. This is probably why some members don't listen
to your music anymore.

I liked this track (or tracks rather) ;)

Please don't use orchestral sounds. It doesn't sound like an
orchestra. It sounds like something silly and lifeless.

I think I like this, it makes me laugh a little.

sound has some relevance to music, doesn't it?

I think I may have been misinformed.

Yep you have, sound is completely irrelevant when it comes
to music.
Music is all in your head, not in the physical sound

it's almost Dream On by aerosmith, but not quite.

you should make it sound more like aerosmith and less like
the anime version of ally mcbeal.

You don't seem to have anything to say in defense of your
music. Did you put your heart into it or did you just made
this because, hey, I kind of like music, why not

since when did anyone "defend" their music.
whats the point in defending music, either people like it or
they dont.

For me, I like odd melodies, that's really all I tried to
do, I've always been fond of orchestral instruments, and
took the challenge to create a piece with orchestral
samples.

It was never meant to sound like a real orchestra, only a
"coax orchestra."

Hmm, well as a whole, my songs are in my own style, I have
my own thing going, whether or not they contribute is up for
discussion.

I don't really care either way, as long as I like it, it's
fine.

Although I do appreciate nice comments :)

"whether or not they contribute is up for discussion"
