That's really damned nice.

I think I like the first one better - although the addition of 
percussion was very effective.

Also good, although it kept sounding like it was building up to a climax 
that never really arrived.

It has some very nice tones, although I would have prefered more 
variation in harmony. (Then again, it's still better than anything I've 
ever produced in my life, so...)

That is very, very smooth. Really atmospheric too. And with the little 
background details, this one almost sounds professional-quality.

Really, very nice. I am impressed.


In summary, I like some more than others, but basically every single one 
of them is better than anything I have ever produced in my entire life. 
(So... I guess the thousands of pounds worth of music hardware and 
software I own was TOTALLY WORTH IT then. :-P Sadly, talent isn't 
something you can just go out and buy in some shop somewhere...)

I'm surprised you managed to get such impressive sound quality from a 
MIDI file. Usually that means using the default software renderer, which 
(depending on which version of Windows you have) sounds abysmal. I've 
heard toy pianos that sound better than that thing!

Also, I fear YouTube has probably chewed up the sound somewhat. The 
tracks did all sound a little muffled, and a bit crunchy in places. But 
such is life...
