Walk in the Park 6.00 I feel that a lot of the percussion took away from the music.  Maybe if something other than bongos would be better.  The overall song sounds kind of sloppy an unorganized.  It has some high points and some good characteristics at some points, but overall the song does not appeal to me very much.                                    
Did I Pass You By 6.90 Same composer as Walk in the Park?  This one has a lot more cleanliness and organization to it.  Interesting interpretations and sources of inspiration for you titles or music.  Did the solo cello at the end represent solitude?  If it didn't, maybe another voice for a little harmony... if so, good idea.                                    
April Tango 7.30 Fun song, the beginning particularly.  I wish there was a little more development though.  Each section sound a little different with an addition or deletion of a certain motive line.  The contrasting section at m65 was a nice change.  I just more was done with this song... but it is a fun song to listen to.                                    
Percussin and Swearin 7.40 Some good ideas use in this song.  It's overall a kind of an odd song.  It's hard to tell where the song is going.  It does not seem like there is any kind of form but a blending repeating motives percussively.  Sounds pretty good, but still pretty odd.                                    
Tuna Salad 7.60 The effects in this song really bring it to life.  Strange, but intriguing.  The beginning and last half had a nice flavor to it, but I felt the middle of the song starting at m30 and on, it didn't fit very well and was actually kind of boring in comparison.  The ending seemed a little to ambigious to me.  It seemed like there need to be resolution from the abiguity by the end but there was nothing of the sort.  Cool song.                                    
Little Tree 8.30 A very spirited and uplifting begginning!  During the piano solo, it would sound a little more convincing if the notes of the chords did not all land exactly on the same tick.  I think some tempo modification would also play a large role in making your song more realistic and expressive with tenutos, accelarandos, ritardandos, etc.  Espcially during the piano solo.  It's a solo and should be played interperatively.  I wish the section at m51 was a little more developed the second time around at m59 rather than a complete repeat.  The flute part sounds good here though with the grace notes.  A very enjoyable and pleasant song to listen too, great job!                                    
Legend 22 7.80 I think the beginning of this song sounds better at a faster tempo - tried doubling the speed and with a little work it could almost pass as a Danny Elfman tune at times.  I also tried switching to the original band instrumentation sounds you had layed out so that I could hear all the notes that are drowned out by all the synthesizers and stuff… sounds good, but synthesizers always sound better with MIDI than band instruments.                                    
Progressive Divertimento 8.40 Nice guitar riff at the beginning and organ work.  Very interesting choice of instrumentation!  One problem with this song is the lack of consistancy.  About every four measures something new is introduced texturally and stylistically.  Well-pulled off, but still a little to inconsistant.  Some of the transitions between phrases are quite akward as well.  Lively and energetic, this piece manages to keep the attention of the listener.  Great variety.  Just a little more elongation of phrases to develop better transitional sections would improve this song.  Very cool ending!                                    
Eagle 7.70 A very nice visual-imaged song.  You have a good layout, but I think you should add a little more to the song.  Perhaps a little percussion, some effects, some woodwind runs and trills.  Something that actually brings out the feeling like you are actually flying yourself... like you are the eye's of the soaring eagle.  If you could pull this off, the song would really fly!                                    
Great Wall 8.70 Very nice stylistic material and effects.  The Shamisens get a little tiering after awhile.  Maybe a slight pause for them and them bringing them back in would be a cool effect.  Would be great for film music   I like the energeitc action with the oriental-like motives used - I wish you would have done more with the oriental stuff and brought it more from that style to bring more culture in to the music and really make it more pictoral for The Great Wall.  You have great talent for music effect though.                                    
EXPERIMENTAL                                        
Oleoneptric 6.70 Catchy tune, but I really don’t hear much experimentation in the chords.  Chord progressions perhaps?  I dunno, but every thing sounds pretty harmonic and usual to me.  Maybe smooth out the ending a little more… or even better, extend the sond and develop it further than voice layering every section.                                    
Theme 1 7.10 A pleasant sounding piece.  I think what this piece could use is a break from the constant pluse that is formed by your rhthmic treatment.  Percussive organ?  Sounds better with timpani to me - maybe some cymbal crashes with that too.  I wish the melody was developed even further with more variation on each repetition.                                    
Chopping up Freddie 8.10 I like what you did with this piece - very spooky indeed!  Maybe a little more instrumental variety would help strengthen the effect even more.
