I put 2 songs in my music website: “The Prodigal One” is the song on top, and “How Are You So” is the next song down. Please tell me how you like the music and how it can be improved, and I will return the favor (leave me a link if you don’t have a recent thread on this forum). Here is my link:
Here are some quick observations:
Prodigal One: As on all your compositions you do a nice job of layering a variety of parts throughout the song to keep things interesting. I liked how you repeated the intro part in the background of the breakdown section, while introducing a new synth to carry the melody. The bass is nice and snarly, and the section with the guitar solo made me think of Roxy Music.
How Are You So: Again, the synth melodies do a nice job of connecting the sections of the song. The arpeggio effect in the chorus was a great choice. It might take a few more listens for the drum track to sit well for me because of its’ contrast with everything else, but I’m sure that was a conscious choice on your part. Nice overall construction on this one!
