Hello everyone!
I'm new here and I would like to hear your opinion on my music. Any comments, suggestions, critics, whether positive or negative are welcome. I have just three songs in my portfolio, so it won't take a lot of your time to listen to.
Thank you! ~simona3

Hey, I listened to your tracks... It looks like you'll need to improve your skills to compete in audiostock. I don't think that building up a portfolio with tracks like these will pay off.
May I ask for how long you are making music?

Hey simona, welcome to pond5!
I listened your tracks, here is my suggestions
1) You need to make mastering for you tracks, turn down the volume - the sound hisses. After mastering is done, upload the track again on Pond5.
2) Add more tags for your compostings. As practice shows, the more tags show your track, the more likely that it will find and download.
Music can be a good thing, but sometimes it happens that the audio just do not find that because of the little tags.
3) Music sounds pretty well as cinematic audio for movie/game/childern celebration and etc
I would like to say, that Izotope Ozone works very well for mastering, but whatever, you can try even Winamp, thats also works fine!
Some questions: what programs you use for audiomaking? Which plugins you use, or its live record?

Big thanks to both of you for your quick replies and of course for your time!
@Soundprodukt: I found a software for composing 2 months ago and that is how long I've been making music. Those three songs are my first songs ever. When I made them, I knew that I was missing a lot of things when it comes to sound quality, but I liked the idea of making music. It was fun. That is why I decided to upload songs and see what other people think about them. As I said, I'm a novice and I'm willing to learn.
@Nawak: Thanks for your advice on adding more tags for my tracks.
I'm using Linux MultiMedia Studio.
It seems that I need to do a lot of research before I upload any other tracks, because there are some terms that I'm not familiar with ( e.g mastering tracks, what does it mean? How should I do that?).
Can you please suggest where should I start from, any books, websites etc. to educate myself?
Thank you! ~simona3

Thanks a lot Nawak!
All informations and links you've provided were very helpful.
I found a program for mastering audio in Linux. Just need to figure out how it works.
All the best,
simona
