I listened to the six tracks that came up on the page. The production is good but I found I got bored with each one of them because there was no real direction or change in any of the tracks. They were just repeating the same motif over and over. And most of them did not really have a melody - it was all rhythmic stuff and standard/simplistic chord progressions. I did like the choice of sounds on the tracks but there isn't enough there to hold my attention for any period of time. Having said that, it's a cut above the usual junk that a lot of so-called 'producers' give us to listen to. A good effort but it needs some variation on each track.

wow thanx for your very fast reply on that You have some good points on your opinion and i fully respect them !

Give me one more chance and have a listen to my previous E.P. here : https://soundcloud.com/visionary-aka-joh...ionary-she

I will be glad to hear your thoughts !

The second batch of tracks seem to have a bit more variation in them, but I still think there needs to be more deviating off the beaten track - for example, if you click randomly through the waveform at different points you could be at the start end or middle of the track and not be able to tell the difference. Just my opinion. Other members might see it differently.

Firstly, thank you so much for your time spending I mostly agree with you, but here's what : My thoughts about the "easy listening tunes" are exactly the opposite !

This kind of music is about to make you relax and "travel" . I personally like when the songs have not so many "surprises" and ups and downs. You know, it's not like Jazz music or House.. just saying

[Jerome]

Like I said, my opinion about your tracks is only my personal view of them. Other members will see it differently. I do think you have the ability to put good sounds together and you certainly have a direction/idea as opposed to others who just throw things together. The rhythmic elements are very good, the choice of sounds is good, I would just like to see a bit more variation - but I 'get' where you are coming from - keep composing!

I partially agree with Jerome, I agree that you should add more variation, even if it is a chill/ambient, you want to make it dynamic. Given it's very mellow, after hearing two EP's in a row, I wouldn't listen to more because quite frankly, they all sound the same. Not trying to offend you or anything man. It's good production, but you should add a melody, it doesn't have to be fast or super slow, it can go along with the rest, just bringing out a little more emotion in the music.
