Hello… any help please?

Hello ! The first track is “Great Wall”. In my opinion, the piano at the beginning “strikes on the ears”. The track is too monotonous, and there are a lot of flaws in mixing, volume balance, and also panorama.
Second track: It sounds more pleasant than the first one. And in my opinion there are small problems with mixing(frequency conflicts). Good luck!

In addition to @CleanMagicAudio I want to say that besides the piano in the first track there are not enough transitions. And the melody is too depressing, I think.
Try to listen to top-selling songs, catch their mood.

The second track really sounds more pleasant, but its structure is far from commercial, well-sold. I also advise you to listen to top tracks and analyze their structure.

Good luck!

The piano in the first track sounds too uninspired, generic and with no dynamics, you probably wrote midi using your mouse in the piano roll, e.g. didn’t play it on a midi controller, right?

And yeah, the mood is too dark for commercial use.

That being said, If you keep the instrumentation and just switch their chord progressions to something more “positive”, you have a big chance of getting accepted, I’m sure.

I really like the second one. It’s got some great punch to it, it would sound like a Foo Fighters song with some killer vocal melodies over it.

Thank you very much for reply and help. Since I am new here, I didn’t know what to do so I posted songs that were actually made for bands etc., …but with this said, it’s more clear to me now what I need to do.
I should put more effort definetly when creating and mastering the songs.

Tnx once again for all the answers!

Cheers,
Jasmin
