Two short tracks where I tried combining 2 step garage drums with 60s pop sounds

Both sound great here. I prefer the second...I like the mood of that one.

Cole1012,
Thank you for the review! Are you from a particular state or country? Now your music: "Scenes": unusual drum beat, not sure if all of the non-drum sounds are synth, perhaps some are guitar? I liked the synths more than the drums, though the drums are fine. Seems more like background music for a TV show than a complete song for me; though sounds pretty cool overall. "Remakes": this one seems more a complete song for me. I think this would be cool background music for a video/TV show/movie. Sounds like there could be guitar in this. Sounds nice, if rather short. I preferred this one overall.

Hey aaron aardvark,

The non-drum sounds in scenes are softsynths and a 12 string rickenbacker plugin. I wasn't sure about the song but I liked how the guitar part turned out. Maybe I'll try to rework it to make it more complete.

When you said there could be guitar in remakes did you mean I should try to add guitar or that you thought there might be guitar in it already?

Thanks for the feedback

Cole,
I thought that there was existing (with a lot of effects) guitar, perhaps, in the song. Though it also had a synth quality to it that made me question if that was really guitar or not. Real guitar may or may not make it sound better, I don't have a strong opinion on that. I am often intrigued by sounds where it is hard to tell if it is synth or guitar, or guitar synth, or sampled guitar, or guitar with synth-like effects.
