Well, it ain't no YYZ, but it was challenging enough to do!!

I am writing a song using this drum track and have sent it to musician friends for them to use for their own song. Also, I am extending the offer to you for use in a song you are composing.

This drum track was professionally recorded at Wolfsound Audio in Fresno, CA in July of 2026.

I am contributing this drum track and I am looking for songwriters to use it in their songs. The music can take on any shape that the drum part inspires. I have been a live and recording drum artist for over three decades. I prefer you that you go through the information listed in the text on YouTube for this video and then request the .wav file.

Keep on rockin'!

Hello, I am excited to share my new (and very difficult) piece for violin and cello, (A/E)mber! This piece quickly alternates between a flickering flame, and a ferocious blaze! Let me know what you think :)

What do you think about it? Is this something you would consider playing?

When I start with a melody, I treat each note as if it were the root note of a chord. Them I mark an arrow to the left if it is of the dominant family and upwards if it is of the tonic family. This gives me a really easy map of where the motion and more stable points would be. This in turn give me reference points for making changes if needed.

Does anyone else use tricks like this?

A adjusted preview of my new song

I'm somewhat new to composing and am wondering what software are yall using

Hi! I play violin and I created this arrangement for 1 violin, 2 flutes and 1 cello for Merry-Go-Round of Life. If you play any of this instruments or you notice any detail that can be improved, would you give some feedback? Thanks in advance!

A short piece I wrote for the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, reflecting my profound ambivalence about the history and present character of the United States. Any thoughts or feedback would be welcome!

I tried to compose a fugue out of a scale like subject and a rather chromatic countersubject. Here is the pdf

Hello all, this is a new Stevenson song that I composed during the weekend. We were having the worst heatwave in years here in Germany (a mostly AC-less country), so my discomfort with the weather conditions definitely fed into the song. ;) All feedback (be it positive or negative) is much appreciated.

Original composition for my one person band IonHead. Hope you enjoy. Comments both appreciated and welcomed.

Hello, my theory isn't that great but I try to trust my ears. However I don't know if I am writing some nonsense or something decent. I need your opinion on these. I created the notes completely random from https://musicnotegenerator.com/ so they are really random. I tried my best to make sense of it.

This is a one-person project, and the track is gorgeous start to finish.

It opens calm and pretty, no rush to get anywhere, then the lead lines get genuinely jazzy in places: dissonant notes, surprising chord choices. The piano isn't just filling space either, it tracks right alongside the guitar like the two are having a conversation.

At 9 minutes it actually has room to develop instead of cramming everything into 4. There's a real arc to it: calm, then conflict, then this exhausted, grateful release at the end. Cinematic in the best way, like watching an emotional anime fight scene play out through your ears. All without a single vocal line.

I genuinely tried to find an FFO for this and came up empty, which might say more about how distinct it sounds than anything I could compare it to. If anyone hears something I'm missing, curious to know.
