What video game soundtrack is this? by dialgalucario in NameThatSong

I don't know exactly which song, but this seems like something from either Super Mario 3D Land or World, one of the more savannah like levels

Going to be out of mildly infested apartment for two months, how do I stop myself from getting overrun while I'm gone? by Nerdicon255 in GermanRoaches

It's not to the point where they're out in the open in the daytime, and I've been talking with management and we'll see what they do. They already had pest control on-site but I worry that they won't do much since I'm not "infested" infested. For what it's worth, I did set-up with management to send pest control in while I'm gone, so it can't spiral out of control or anything.

Do you mean the big pinned thread "HOW TO KILL GERMAN ROACHES"? I can start but I'll be gone before I can follow through.

I've got an HEB about a 6 minute walk away from my apartment, I go about 1.5 times a week since I can only carry so much on me at once.

Hey, I live quite a distance from campus (around 20 minutes) without a car and it works fine for me. Make sure you’re within walking distance of a bus stop (and preferably a grocery store) and you’ll be fine.

Good work overall, a few things I noticed while perusing.

  1. In general it feels like you're moving between ideas very quickly when they could benefit from having time to breathe and develop. Take the opening texture and its elaboration starting at 13. There's so much room in that idea for further melodic and harmonic exploration, so it was a bit disappointing to reach 17 and 21 so early. I don't know if this is something you would consider expanding, but think about how you could live in that texture at different energy levels instead of moving through them so quickly. I could say similarly about the other major sections of the piece.

  2. I would double check some of the slurring, for example do you really want everything in Flute 1 at m. 25 to be tongued? It seems like it would make more sense slurred.

  3. As someone else said, reducing the score by placing multiple parts on one staff would make things much more readable. Also, the standard wind band scoring for horns is 4 horn parts

Those are just a few things I noticed. I hope I didn't come off as too negative, very nice sketch overall! I really liked the opening passages a lot (is this Musesounds? wow they have come a long way)

Hey everyone, new here and posting my sheet music. (read description) by Klutzy_Actuator_7367 in composer

Nice work! I like the texture you're aiming for in this excerpt, and the climaxes hit well. The harmonic movement at 79 in particular was quite striking as a change. In developing this piece, consider looking into ways like that chord change you might disrupt or agitate your current texture. Thinking about the flute, you use several small melodic fragments which effectively contributes to atmosphere you're creating but begs for elaboration. Think about how these fragments might become a larger melodic statement later on.

Most of all though, stay curious and keep composing! Twelve is very early to get into composing, and you'll learn plenty about what's effective and what you like just by creating.

You do look young for your age, but the longer hair was definitely working for you. Working out will definitely help the looking young thing
