your untitled tune sounds better. The amount of discord in it is greatly reduced (I'd say it has 75% less discord) & the amount of discord that it does have does add some measure of depth. This said, you should still strive to bring as many of the channels as you can to a more harmonious state.

No wonder your tunes aren't making sense when it takes you ~45 minutes to compose them With that being said, I haven't actually listened to them yet. So I won't say anything about them yet, heh.
Audio Pancake sounds very good &, even though it's a bit repetitive, it's by far the exact thing that I was telling you to do in terms of harmony & flow.
Though Audio Junkyard didn't sound as good, I can tell that this was the experimental file that lead to Audio Pancake. You have good flow, but again, discord is still an issue with Audio Junkyard because of your use of the arpeggio effect. But thankfully, Audio Pancake is the result of the experiment. Keep improving yourself & you'll eventually become better & better; it may take some time, but it'll be worth it.

You're right, sometimes it takes me less than 45 minutes, as I hate working too long on one tune, but who are you to say this ?
Show me a tune of your own instead of saying stuff like that.
Just have a search in the forum & you'll see what he already came up with (he had a pretty nifty tune in an old contest post I created here; he just started at that time & his music theory was already quite advanced than).
GlidingSoul; don't worry about how constructive/destructive someone's criticism may be. There's always something to improve in every song that's ever been created because not everyone likes the same style or, in this case, not everyone acknowledges a person's level of education when it involves any attempt at displaying a talent (regardless of the level of education).
Now, concerning the 45 minutes that it takes to compose a tune; some people can do that, but not all (& it would take a great deal of knowledge about music theory to be able to do something like that). Like I've said before, music's an art form like poetry. In poetry, you really have to take the time to think about what you're going to say, how rhythmic the poem is to be & what words to use for rhymes. The same can be said for music; you need to take the time to think it through. Patience is required in any art, especially one that's in constant motion.

I'd call this an intermediate experiment; you've got a good balance between harmony & discord in this tune, but only a handful of frames have dynamic volume control (whereas the rest of the track is set at a static volume setting that prevents the song from putting the audience completely into the mood you want to convey).
This said, the track can be improved by having greater variation in one of your square channels. Overall, you're slowly getting better. I'd recommend that you concentrate on dynamic volume control & keep on practicing the amount of balance you currently have with harmony & discord.

Which part of the song requires improvement ? The one with the square channels ( I've made a silly row of meaningless notes ) before the loop point ?
BTW, I didn't Archj made good compos, but it's not a reason to start saying negative critics. At least your comments are worth reading.
I'm not going to lie, It was hard listening to this.
Theres EXTREMELY low variation in this and I say ALL channels need work.
Its also very low pitched, which makes it hard to listen to.
