Okay, well, I thank you for your appreciation as well for your criticism. Both will help me a lot with my future compositions and production. The last days I've been busy with a metal tribute to The Elder Scrolls, because we already haven't enough of them on Youtube. That's why I...

Well, you don't have to excuse yourself for constructive criticism. I can see where you coming from and I'm glad that finally there's someone who actually gives me a critique (though I'm happy for everybody who likes my music, of course). Our interpretation of the original song might differ...
