I'm an "pretentious, elitist asshole" because I claim to know music theory. Even though I really know more than you about music theory in relation to electronica, despite your shitty "classical" compositions that sound like movie scores. Teach yourself.

... but don't give newbies the idea that something only has to sound cool for it to be good. You have to *do* something with every track, not just pump out music, Zenon.
Erm, so yeah. That's one way to make a kick, but I find myself composing kicks from the three contributing elements: click, punch, and sine. I prefer to tweak each one separately, whether with an oscillator or Audacity, and then put them together, equalize, export as a .wav, and hopefully use it more than once in the future :)

Look, I hate to be a clod, but please quantize midi input... the rhythm isn't exact here and it just sounds poorly put together. If it was on purpose... then I suggest that you do not use an automated, timely percussion track alongside a piano part with rubato.
PM me if you need any advice with quantizing.

a good try but it honestly just sounds like you took a saw and added detune, then threw in basic drums and a pad. sorry for being blunt. 4/10.
Author's Response:
I wasn't making darkstep. I'm not Spor. I can't make amazing basslines.
The drums were simple because it's really hard to make a good sounding beat in 5/4 for this style.
Maybe it was bland, but that's how ambient-esque music is. It's meant to be simple and basic, not incredibly complex.

Things I liked on the first listen:
- the atmosphere
- chords
Things I didn't like:
- it didn't go anywhere.
After listening through three times, I really like the ambient feel. Yet, while I realize this is meant to be background music, it should go somewhere. Maybe add a little bit of percussion. Everything else was great, you've got a good ear for atmosphere, just take it to the arranging level now.
