Hello Cheiron Songwriters forum,

I am a songwriter/producer recently moved to LA trying to make it.  Here are some of my favorite songs I've done up until this point.  All these I co-wrote with 1 or 2 other writers, and I was the sole producer and mixer.

Thank you for listening!

My goals in posting this:
1-(best case) meet someone who can help me mentor under max (which would be an honor)

2-meet people to collab with.  so many of you have great talent and I'd like to work together

3-get advice.  I did try my hardest when making these, however I know the road ahead is still long and much could be improved.  I am humble.  I  welcome and want any advice/criticism that can make my future melodies/production/mix better.

Thank you again for listening and being part of a community that loves great music!

Why are there no replies?!

Great work. Especially liking "It's Alright".

Oh, these are catchy tunes. Nice style and the singer does a great job.

Good luck with these, have you sent them to some labels?

And I liked it..

Sounds really good, great production and toplines.

The thing is: sounds way too pop and that reduces the array of artists to get a placement.

turnaround,

thanks man! she's great! Umm, I have not, honestly I'm not even at a level where I know how to "send stuff to labels" and have them actually listen... if you know anyone I would be honored to hear about it, especially if they kick it with max.  thanks again tho for the kind words!

j.fco.morales,

thanks a lot! i appreciate the positive feedback.  yea I agree, things now are getting darker in sound and i'm going that way... array of placement is honestly something I haven't thought much about, I just try to make the dopest thing I can, but I should start trying to think of "scope" more.  Thanks for the tip

That's Charity Vance, isn't she on a label? Her EP with It's Alright is on iTunes, and she has a music video for it.

Yea emjay it's her but she's not on a label.  She paid for all of it herself.

I really like the acoustic version of It's Alright also.

Hey,

The first and third are very unlistenable to me, but Sound of a Heartbeat definitely has potential IMO. The deep male vocals are WAY too cheesy and unnecessary and ruin the vibe. The rap bridge seems really unnecessary, too and makes the song too long. But, the little fills he does could be replaced by her and might be cool.

The drums on SOAH are definitely cliche. I think even the unsophisticated listener would be turned off by the outdated feel.  You should make them more unique and your own by layering them. I think the song can be slightly less BPMs. But, really, it could be a great song with some changes :)

Oh yea, the intro is pretty good.

No worries :) I didn't find the acoustic version, though. I'm talking about the version that's on the playlist you linked to.

Nice tracks!
Offtopic question: I thought about moving to LA as well and start hustling but to live and work legally I need the green card. Did you go through the process as well or did you just go there?

Definitely talented but feels like you re trying to make today s music and emulating the established producers instead of defining what makes you different and trying to do music fo tomorrow. It all felt real safe. Are you strictly in the box?
