If you have time take a listen and give doudei some feedback.
For some reason, I couldn't play the video; I don't know if it's my laptop or something else. Anyway, this is beautiful! I really envy those who play real instruments. You have an amazing touch, and it resonates profoundly through the medium.
I'm just a click-click DAW type of guy.
you may think that only clicking isn't much. but your music speaks for itself. for me it's not important how you made it. i use the mouse and keyboard a lot too - it's an awesome tool. :)
you clearly have a flair and feeling for sound, so the playing would come naturally for sure. so, if it's something you want to do, just go for it, my friend. it doesn't matter how good or not you are, as long as it brings you joy. then the rest will follow on its own.
lastly, sorry to hear the video didn't work.
i uploaded it to youtube a couple of days ago and forgot to update the link in the description. you can watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwdVDvxfXL4
you nailed the dynamic range and your tempo is superb. its quit hard to keep this tempo specially throughout the changing motives. what i really loved is your use of percussive hits. i get lost, im a huge fan of debussy and own various vyinl, but you made it more surreal with your recording. i love how you play with your ambience and tone. love from a banana
woah, you've got a Debussy vinyl collection! that is serious business. i think i've seen a couple of those records once but never actually had the chance to playback and listen. got anything antiques even?
thank you for the most kind words
I appreciate this for more than the obvious. The obvious being that you have played it beautifully. I'm not a pianist by any sense of the word, nor am I as familiar with Debussy as I am with others, so I can't give any feedback on technicality, but in my ears, it was done flawlessly.
The reason I appreciate this aside from your playing ability is because I have been submerged under the weight of Metal (and most of it's subgenres) for almost 40 years. Generally, I thrive on the brutal and aggressive nature of Metal. However, whenever classical manages to find it's way through the clouds of rust, and razor sharp edges, it reminds me to come up for air. It reminds me that it's okay to put my guard down for a minute and just relax.
Another reason I appreciate this is because Looperman is severely lacking in Classical music. It would be nice to see more here. Thank you for sharing.
Thank-you so much for making and posting this, Doudei! It was...lovely. A real treat. You played it beautifully. I always wanted to be able to play this composition, one of my very favourites, but never got the chance. Now, of course, I could not even manage the right hand part alone. Listening to it here on LM, for some reason, I am paying much more attention to how Debussy varied the voicing of the chordal sequence, mostly played in the left hand, in parts where the melody line was basically the same. I also think maybe actual chords, not just voicings of the same chords, were varied somewhat as well. It is a composition that you can just get lost in as a listener, but also explore and analyze from a composition perspective as well.
Thanks Eric, appreciate you taking the time to listen and comment.
I agree, its worth to listen closely and analyze, but also equally to just let go and be taken by it. never gets boring!
warmest greetings from switzerland
Hello, an amazing composition you created there! She captivated me from the start and pulled me under her spell! That only happens to me when I listen to my little sister at the piano. Simply beautiful and really good skilful game. All attention !!!!! Greetings Manuela

Description : Hi, I just had to try and do my own type of music tribute to the sad and unfortunate events in Manchester the other night
I start the song off with a type of music box to represent like a young child and then i go into a violin strings to try and set the sadness and then after a while i used some soft drum and clicks to represent time ticking and then with just the piano and then in the middle of the track it picks up pace a bit and i decided on this because to represent the strength of the people that will stand strong and i once again also put the music box in with this and my reason was to be strong for the rest of the children and then i finsh up with the piano again and the ending on the drum to remember the lives sadly lost and a type of silence if it were
i really feel so sadened by this event and it trully has me in bits
may we all come together and forever be strong and stand up to these horrible people who think they can destroy us and our children and families and loved ones

Description : Greetings all, after having made my point yesterday about the whole looperman situation. It's time to move on again. This time i have something good for you all.

So to celebrate my 10 years here of being in service. I have something special for you all. Enjoy and let me know what you all think of it. Lets be at peace now shall w.
Description : Recorded this a while ago.. Raw, lovely.. I'm an electric guitarist so this is unfamiliar territory for me... I always wanted to master classical acoustic and I will one day. Video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMt7o3ty9pw *Edit* Despite this being painfully obvious, this is not my composition, it's an effort to learn classical guitar and note the progression for future nostalgia.. This site is making me think I should give the anti-vaxxers some credence. Ffs.

you're too kind, i don't think it's perfect yet.

To accept and embrace man's contradiction between hell and heaven and find some way to balance it for himself, because otherwise you will go crazy.
Thank you for your gift!
