Some WIP snippets (vote which you want to see finished)

[Lunatique]

I rarely have freetime to work on music anymore, and when I do once in a blue moon, I end up making quick sketches of ideas that's been brewing in my head. The problem is that I only have time for these quick sketches to record my ideas before I forget them, and never have time to really spend on a single track, fleshing it out and finishing it. I really want to do that though, but I have a bunch of unfinished sketches and sometimes it's hard to decide on one to finish. So, I'd like to get some feedback from you guys.

The unfinished sketches in question (sorry about the BBCode weirdness--just copy/paste the URL's):

Just One Reason
I limited myself to using only Reason 3 for this track--my way of learning a new tool.

What You Don't Know
For this track, I envisioned a scene where someone has become suspicious of a loved one (could be a lover or a family member). That suspicion leads to the person one day deciding to follow the suspicious party from a distance, to find answers to that suspicion. The pursuit starts out in the suburbs, then into the city. At the end of the track (climax), we find out just what dark secret is discovered (maybe the lover is having an affair, or maybe the daughter is a prostitute). You only hear a solo cello right now, but later on in the track, I'll be adding other solo string instruments to play countermelodies and harmonies. The percussion will also get more complex as well, with a bit of synthy bleeps and squelches here and there for the mysterious ambiance.

They're Coming
Cue for an action/thriller story, during a scene when the antagonist are approaching and they came prepared to end it all. That synth wail gives the track an uneasy dissonance, which is what I wanted.

Invasion
This is an orchestral piece depicting a battle scene in an epic fantasy story.

Easy Breezy Solitude
I used to be a lonewolf (now that I'm married, I can't be one anymore), and this is me remembering back to those days of driving around alone, enjoying my solitude. (Yes, I know it loops really chopy, and it won't be there in the finished version.)

Welcome to Delphie-16 Spacestation
This is essentially futuristic elevator music. When you dock the Delphie-16 Spacestation, an announcer will greet you with a prerecorded message welcoming you to the spacestation, then give you some basic information about the station itself. This is the music that plays in the background during the announcement..

In the sci-fi stories I write, the future is an optimistic one where mankind has colonized various star systems, planets, and moons. In that future, there are many spacecities, spaceports, and spacestations orbiting around. Spacecities are basically cities built in outerspace, large enough for a local government. Spaceports are smaller, about the size of a town, with commerce and entertainment as the main focus. Spacestations are the smallest, with the larger ones being the size of a giant shopping malls--containing retail stores, medical services, parking garages, motels, and refueling stations. The smallest spacestations are no bigger than a refueling station, medical clinic, and a convenient store.

Your links are on the blink, even when copy/pasting, KVR has added all sorts of weird spaces. Here's some working links:

Just One Reason
What You Don't Know
They're Coming
Invasion
Easy Breezy Solitude
Welcome to Delphie-16 Spacestation

I think Just One Reason and What You Don't Know have the most room to grow. The other ones mostly strike me as sountrack cliches. Not bad if you need soundtrack filler, but as standalone tracks might be short on interest.

Thank you so much for that. I tried the BBCode both as normal, and also as with the spaces filled in (which the browser automatically does), but couldn't get them to work. Looking at your BBCode, it looks exactly the same as one of my previous attempts, but for some reason yours worked and mine didn't.

I agree with you. I think it's because the other tracks haven't really been developed melodically, and are basically just grooves with chords and arpeggiated notes with no evident progression in their current state.
