Bear with me, been a while since I've critiqued music like this (like my college days). Hope you find my comments useful....

While the first, Forest of the New World, has a nice rhythm and tune to it, it feels a bit too repetitive by the end and needs a melody or something running through to tie it all together. Background music gets repetitive enough as it is. While I didn't count, it seems those sections are only about 20 bars each. This is one piece i would be silencing quickly after a few plays.

Market Blitz is great. I can't really say you should change anything other than maybe going with a harpsichord instead of a piano.

Walk on Ashes seems to be pretty solid, too. At least, I can't say anything should be changed. If MM doesn't use this one, too, they need to be thunked on the head and figure out where to put it.

Also, they should pay you a little something if they use any of these and get enough cash flow coming in.

+1!

Hope I made sense here. Feel free to ask if you want clarification on anything I said.

I love this!
Keep up the good work!
I hope all of the songs get used as they are really, really good.
Forests of the new world is by far the best for me, though. ;)

Glad you guys are enjoying it so far :). I also appreciate the honest feedback given. It'll only help me in the future when it comes to writing music to the game.

Also, they should pay you a little something if they use any of these and get enough cash flow coming in.


I'm definitely flattered that my music seems good enough, though I wouldn't want any money. Something's gotta keep JC fed so he can keep coding non-stop ¦] . Gotta give him credit, though, he works his ass off from what I've seen :).

tbh, it sounds good, but more fitting to one of those random Asian cartoon mmo's.
in my opinion it should be more like the music from Colonization

I wasn't aware that anyone else had written any music recently O_o. He mentioned he was using some other music along with my own, however. Is that yours?
