Try exporting your midi to mp3 and giving us that? I like the first change of tempo but the others were just distracting. You also used the sustain pedal FAR too heavily. Lighten up on it. You should go back an clean up your mistakes and add some from harmonics to it. I also REALLY disliked the fade at the end. *ugh* It sounded like you couldn't find a good end so you cheated and faded it. Otherwise, it's pretty nice. Still in the development stage to be sure but keep up the good work.

Wow. You certainly learn as you go. Take two is a most definite improvement. I've fixed the beginning instrumentation and added a lot more background harmonics. I've also recreated a lot of the melody from scratch based on the chords. (Thanks for the idea. It helped a lot.) The updated version is here: http://www.mediafire.com/?yzpz1dzxnhv AGAIN Please Comment AND Critique. A noob needs all the constructive criticism he can get.

Thank you all very much for the critiques. Very much needed. I especially appreciate your comment 2radical on removing the melody and only working the chords till I have that down. Excellent idea. DarkLink42, I agree with the beginning instrumentation. I've never made anything sound digitized (what I was aiming for) so it sounds rather... Bee like? I'm trying to fix it. All in all, I want to get further away from the source. As I said, I only started fiddling with Garage band yesterday. I appreciate all the C&C so far. Keep it coming! I'll probably have an update here later on today. Thanks again! RG

I love the song "Simple and Clean" from Kingdom Hearts but they never made a full remix version of it. (The slow one is just... to slow.) So I decided to remix my own. Right, so this would be my first remix of anything ever. I'm using GarageBand (I know, I know. I just can't legally afford anything better right now) On a Mac (Duh) With a crappy sound card. Please let me know what you think and how I can improve it. Feel free to get as critical as you want. I'm a big boy. I can take it. If anyone wants an aif, midi, or other format, let me know and I'll get it to you. Thanks! The remix is hosted at: http://www.mediafire.com/?xondozyvq04
