			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>The problem is that music theory, advanced especially, is certainly difficult to explain, so there is no a single definitive book on this. Try a few random books and find one that is written in words that are easier to understand for you personally.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>There seems to be a new trend of creating an album on Bandcamp then asking for CC on it. You shouldn&#039;t release stuff you aren&#039;t sure about, jus&#039; sayin.</p><p>My biggest complaint is sound design. I have this gripe with a large percentage of LSDJ users but your instruments need more depth. It sounds like you adjusted the Wave Duty Cycle and called it a day. Do some experimentation with tables, add different commands. See what works.</p><p>Song wise they aren&#039;t terrible but they suffer from lack of variation. All your songs should be a minute and a half long considering you just repeat the verse and chorus over and over. Boring Days Go By, melody wise especially in your chorus, wasn&#039;t half bad but it certainly suffers from the previously mentioned repetition.</p><p>Keep at it though. Focus on sound design, writing stronger melodies and song structure. My best advice I can give to new people is &quot;would you listen to it?&quot; If not then the song probably sucks.</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Sounds like something that would be in an old DOS game or something, but it&#039;s not really something I&#039;d rip from the game and add to my mp3 library. It&#039;s serviceable background music, at the very least...</p><p>Edit: Needs a stronger beat. It sounds underdeveloped, like it&#039;s a concept for something to be performed by a full ensemble of instruments.</p><p>Edit: Hey, if you play guitar or something... ^_-</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>hehe, sorry <img src="https://chipmusic.org/forums/img/smilies/smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="smile" /> I went to bed yesterday after posting this and seeing that a lot had happened on the forum since then I was wondering - being ready for the worst, as the only thing that will really benefit me is if people actually point out what is bad etc.<br />Thanks for the comment and thanks for the tips. On my first two songs I didn&#039;t know how to make a kick, so Boring days go by, and Lost in the Mall are made with the samples, which you noticed as well (not that is it hard) on Sunny behind the Clouds however I did try to create my own kick by editing the synth etc. which can also be heard.<br />But thanks, it helps and I will keep working on it <img src="https://chipmusic.org/forums/img/smilies/smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="smile" /></p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>You just waited a few hours!<br />They are not bad, but they dont sound really &quot;full&quot;, find a bass, a kick, new noise drums instead of samples in wav, change the leads, if you use the same instrument as lead it will be a bit boring, so just improve, practice, do a lot of songs and improve! <img src="https://chipmusic.org/forums/img/smilies/smile.png" width="15" height="15" alt="smile" /></p>]]></content>
