Hi everyone,

I've recently started a small YouTube channel where I create fantasy-inspired cinematic ambient music. I'm still learning and trying to improve both the music and presentation.

I'd really appreciate any honest feedback on the composition, atmosphere, mixing, and overall listening experience. What works well, and what could be improved?

Thank you for your time and feedback!

So I have a lot of fun with the sound design bits and making swelling, evolving ambient soundscapes. But I have no real idea how to structure it into a song. Right now, I'm just using crossfading to make loops, but it would be nice to be able to make actual songs. Any advice?

Hello everyone! I make ambient music and love to experiment. I’ve recently been very into Fennesz and Yellow swans, I’m manly looking for both feedback on my songs, literally anything that comes to mind means a lot- and also cool artist or projects that you recommend. Thank you! (super cool subreddit)

Hi all
I need some advice for beginner artist. You could check my music under "ṁn̅ȯċ" on streaming platforms. I want to know what you think about mix, idea or is my music trigger any emotions

I would appreciate feedback, advice or songs that helps me expand the horizons

Hey all! I've been trying to start learning how to put ambient music and soundscapes together and so far the best programs I've found are all wildly expensive. Are there any cheap or free daws/effects that are good for learning the foundations of putting things together/composing before dropping a ton of money?

I’ve been producing on and off for a while, mostly bass music, some ambient, some classical. Never really finished anything, let alone putting it about.

I finally acquired my first synth last week, breeding inspiration and the desire to take the work a bit more seriously, I also now have time to focus a little more.

I’m new to reddit but this seems as good a place as any to get some feedback and see what people think. I’ve set up a soundcloud account to start sharing. There are two tracks so far; the first ambient, the second is more a rhythmic exploration and a bit of a departure. I think the rhythm needs varying a bit, but I’m okay with the general theme as it is. They were made together over the last few days and so are somewhat linked. I’m rushing them out before I get bored and start again, as is often the way.

Ingredients: Waldorf Blofeld, Roland RE-201 Space Echo (faulty), Tape machines (various), foley work.

Hope you enjoy and thanks in advance...

Hi all! I was looking through some music I'd made recently, and found I was dissatisfied with one of the songs I've been working on. It dawned on me that it was far too cluttered and busy.

I resolved to change my approach and adopt a 'less is more' mantra. Unfortunately, that was blown out the window when I saw a song I quite liked, had almost double the number of tracks compared to the one I didn't!

Clearly the number of tracks one should be using changes depending on context. But I'd like to ask you all whether you have a particular preference or approach when making ambient music, such as how many tracks you typically use in a song, and if you set any hard rules for yourself about limiting that number.

For my part, sometimes I've had success layering lots of pads but setting them almost imperceptibly low in a mix. How about you?
