[Rejoice!InTheResurrection]

Hmmm.....first thoughts: very interesting. The title is the reason I clicked on this as I'm Christian, but that isn't a prerequisite for me to enjoy a piece of music per se. Not sure if the title does fit though. I don't really hear the rejoicing. The tone sounds a bit more mysterious and eeriness which creates in me a feeling of indifference. Since I listen to the piano a lot, I'm not a fan of the tone of the piano you used. I would of liked some human feel to it as well--sounds a bit too midi.
It is ambient like, and I think it works fine as such. Can't say I enjoyed it completely, but you still got my respect for it.

SoulSecure responds:

I think it sounds happy, serene and uplifting. This seems more like just a cultural difference or a misunderstanding in style/expression or whatever. For example, a lot of Middle Eastern music that is happy is mistaken as sad by Westerners who don't understand the music. In either case it doesn't matter to me, as I made this song for God and He knows my heart.

I don't much care for humanization. Unless you're a real freak about it or it's necessary for the song, it can be irrelevant. I mean, this is an electronic piece of music, what do I care if it doesn't sound like anyone played it, eh? (BTW, I'm not afraid to use a MIDI piano)

On the tone, it could just be the piano itself. It's a VST I recently acquired called Piano One (uses a Yamaha Grand). It could also be the fact that I EQ'd it to specifically sound the way it does (to each his own).

If you didn't completely enjoy this, then you'd hate my other music! :)

[Black Flag]

First thing that intrigues me is the syncopation—love the rhythm.
Chord progression and the voice parts are great.
The combination of these makes this very enjoyable to listen to.
A real orchestra would really sound awesome for a piece like this..
This track has me interested to hear what else you have uploaded.

Aeris responds:

I'm glad you enjoyed it :) And I hope you enjoy the rest of my works. I tend to post both my worst and my best pieces in order to not shy away from the full representation of my progression (Plus NG is an alarmingly reliable archiving resource. :P)

Anyways, thank you for taking the time to listen and to even review, I appreciate it!

[Wrong Approach]

This has a great sound, and I love the change at 57 seconds. Just too short unfortunately

[I finished my work and I want]

hahahaha
Jack Black is that you?!

[Alarming Grace]

The sliding of notes is what I enjoy most about this; it gives it a haunting quality reminiscent of the movie Apocalypto.

[krssvr - A Familiar Wind]

I listened to this track initially for the Secret Santa, but as I come back to it for another listen, I thought to myself, “This is really good.” Subtle, yet effective.
Each part that comes in is very pleasing and purposeful.
Nothing is wasted here.

krssvr responds:

Thank you!, I'm still working on this track i want it to eventually lead into a full remake of the first version of this song.
