Music recommended by Melody Xu

Columbia by Film & TV ComposerMark Adair

generally like the whole piece, specifically the beautiful piano sound! .. the percussion sounds all right to me, a lit loose..since there's no picture played along with it, don't really know whether it fits the rhythm of the pictures or not, but if make it a bit faster could sound more in tension... the stings(worst part of the composition), can be improved a lot by good mixing!!!personally think the timbre you chose is a bit less impact, should be better if shorten the attack time of the instrument sound in your sample bank or change it into a harsh and harder-bow-pressure one.. the mixing is not very balanced... absolutely personal opinion;)

Elevation by Film & TV ComposerOlivia Dixon

quite a creative piece! Like the feeling and the usage of the interesting small reversed sound as effects at the beginning. Turning the second beats the stressed beats makes the piece sounds quite unique..very good mixing!

Nuclear Devastation (E=mc2) by Film & TV ComposerMichael J. McEvoy

quite like this piece actually... the only failure of this piece is the "wavy string section" (plays from the very beginning to the end) A. it has string-like sound but the velocity envelope (breath) is quite stange, definetely were not played by bows. B. the reverberation of this track is different from other tracks, relatively bit "dryer", this makes the track sound quite outstanding in the whole piece! the solo cello is beautiful!
