uplifting thanks for the feedback and suggestions. Soundmaker does allow panning and stereo effects, but it isn't as easily achieved as w/ software nowadays... also volume control with it was difficult (at least increasing the volume, without it being one quick switch, rather than a gradual increase).. since it was simply editing waveforms. So anything is 'possible' but it can just be difficult. I don't use SoundMaker anymore, at least right now.. this isn't a "new" song, but its new in that I only recently put it up on macjams. Everything here is years old from me, I have a few more that I will upload gradually. Anything you see made with Soundmaker is old. My newest track will be made with Garageband, I'll be sure to mark Garageband as software I used when that time comes. Check out my latest song called Glass Spider

Good I like the melody in this from the piano. I agree it has some sad feel about it and I dont 'see' your spider.. but of course everyones interpretation of a track is different. I also like the flute? harmonies in there. I like the choir effect, give the track a feeling of space. As far as production goes, I would bring those drums right back down in the mix to accentuate the strings and melody, rather than overpower it... but of course thats just my opnion.. Otherwise not bad at all... nicely arranged. SlimGirlFat Check out my latest song called Not Enough

Good Thanks for the comments. yes, the drums are a little overpowering... at the time of creating this it is what I wanted. But I suppose now that I have the capabilities to control volume better now, it might be something i'll tinker with down the road. Okay this is why I think I see a spider --- first of all I see a large hallway (similar to the image), and if something is going to take 4 or 5 minutes to walk down a hallway like that, it must be small, an incect of some kind. And something about the echoing of the piano, the way I played it (the way my fingers moved on the keys) reminds me of a spider, mostly in the beginning before the actual melody picks up. Hope that clears it up :) Check out my latest song called Glass Spider

Good concept! I like the image your description guides the music into (sorry, can't think grammatically correct after 9pm). Makes me want to make a video for it. Check out my latest song called Julia

Lovely piece It has a very nice melody and a pleasantly melancholy atmosphere. Towards the end I found myself wanting a bit more variation (not a change of tempo, just a bit more playing around with the melody), but as you say, you designed it to work as background music ... in which case it's probably fine just as it is. Very enjoyable, thanks. Check out my latest song called Amongst The Colours (w/ Luna Trick)

Started out great... ...but i felt that the drums that kicked in didn't quite fit. I liked the melody, well played. This is a cool track man, but imho please rework the drums (maybe in GarageBand eh?). Can't wait to hear your new GB creations, when are they coming? Keep banging!

emotive-and just a little sad to me. i keep wanting to
leave the obligatory 'needs a change-up or more
instruments for interest', but maybe not in this case.
you've created something very simple & honest
some ideas tho: does soundmaker allow you to pan
instruments? if so, you might try setting different tracks at
different places on the pan dial (or whatever the
controller is) for a wider soundscape. you could also try
increasing the volume near the end for a bit of a build-up
& climax
pretty stuff-didn't really feel the arachnid tho
