So today I released 2 new famitracker songs on my soundcloud.

Coffee 4 EVER! - https://soundcloud.com/breogan-hackett/coffee-4-ever

Vortex 6 - https://soundcloud.com/breogan-hackett/vortex6

Really What I'm looking for is advice on structure. I can make a melody and know how to make interesting and cool instruments I just always feel awkward repeating things too much and I would really like some advice/ tips on structuring songs.

These are pretty cool! I can see what you mean about repeating though... hmm I find that the best way to avoid repeating things is to force yourself to write new patterns, and rather than just looping a pattern that you've already written, re-write the pattern so that it builds with the other instruments. Even copying patterns and then changing them to add fills and slightly different parts can make a track sound very different. Using fills is an especially handy trick that keeps a track moving along, so keep that in mind! Hope that helps! big_smile
