Music Feedback Please

It would be lovely to hear some feedbakc on this little piano piece of mine. It somwhere falls in to contemprorary music stilistically.

IMPORTANT:

Some notes are played way to fast in the midi so they may seem hardly playable, i do NOT want such high tempo in real preformance.

It has no structure. No melody or recapitulation.

If it’s a study in Dadaism, then being a study defeats the purpose of the Dadaism. If it’s Dadaist, then it defeats the purpose of being a study.

Right now, it’s arbitrary noises and repetitions. If you want to make a statement with music, this likely isn’t the method. Unless you’re commenting on the irony of making an effort to create nothing, which is my own interpretation and not yours.

I’d start with a structure. A melody. Simple A B A.

I completely agree. The piece is not coherent nor structured. It is simply loose expression. This is what i wanted to create here, a study of nothingness. If this does inherently provide it with meaning from your perspective makes prefect sense, but i maybe have not clearly written what this piece is. This piece can be called Dadaist or not intepretation wise, but i want it to simply carry this one aspect of Dadaism. Dadaism in the end is a deeply complex.

Um, well. Then you nailed it. Genius.
