The 60s Blues

Rhythm is a little repetitive in relation to the length of the piece. The synth work that you did (the melodies that is) has a lot of potential, but more effort could have gone into it, and earned a better score from me

Gaspains

I was visualizing a scary looking stripper coming out on the stage of a sleazy bar with herky jerky movements to go along with the rhythm.  Not to say that's a bad scenario… I happen to like strippers.

A little more work and this one would have gone right through the roof.  I'd like to hear more string instrumentation.

Funk (A Brief Insanity)

7.50

I really don't see the "insanity", Regarding your comments about this piece, First off, music is selfish.  If it tickles the composers ears, then that's what it's all about. Composing outside what the world expects is innovation, and don't be surprised if others share your appreciation of new things. More power to you.

The piano man would have had no problem coaxing a Jackson out of my wallet down at the piano bar. Close to the  quintessential jazz number this one is both relaxing and motivational, and I only wish for the composer to keep reaching for the stars… keep striving.  Encore!

Battle of Fleetzan 2002

C

Horses of the Time

8.20

Put together well, I felt it was a little anti-climactic though, because the way it progressed, I expected something different at the conclusion, but that's not to say that it should be any different than the way the composer wrapped it up.

I fail to see where a flapper of the past fits here, and which part is from 2020?
