I certainly hear the percussionist in this composition, but for someone who has never composed a full song before, I wouldn't have known otherwise if you hadn't have said it! The soft and airy piano sits nicely at the top of what else is going on in the track. I wouldn't say you botched the volume by any means, but that brass in the second track is preeeetty bumpin lol. It's not a game breaker, though. Keep practicing your composition and production - I would say that you clearly have a knack for it! Just keep making songs and experimenting - even if they don't sound the way you wanted or didn't quite pan out, you will get better every time you do it! Nice job on your submission and looking forward to what you could bring to the table next jam!

Thank you so much for this! Yeah i fully agree that brass kinda comes in like the koolaid man.
I am really delighted to hear that! I thought for sure I was making some really entry level mistakes with the whole set so its been quite surprising to see so many people enjoy my arrangement. I cant express how happy that has made me and I have more confidence now to learn the stuff getting in the way of better work now that its been pointed out.
Thank you for taking the time to listen at all!
