[WIP] Did I steal this melody from something else?
HELP! It sounds good to me but I just wanted to make sure that I didn't just subconsciously rip the melody from something else. If it's all good, then i'm going to run with it.
It has a ring of familiarity to it but I think it's original. That said, you might try seeing if anyone down in the forum, below, recognizes it. I definitely like it, though. Very pretty.
Tomo if you want some constructive criticism I'd say look for a more 'real' sounding piano voice

Hi Eddie, nice to run into you again. =) Meriter, would you happen to have any recommendations on the best sounding piano vst? Currently i'm just using Nexus but I am sure there are better and more expensive options.
Piano sounds decent enough. The composition is pretty compelling, so it may be worth experimenting with the more real sound they mentioned. This works, though. Maybe a tad bit more compressed feel would squeeze it out more. You have a lot of room in those chords to experiment with counter point, so try to get more of a hook going. Sounds pretty nice.

It is the same chord progression as all these other songs
I wasn't trying to be a jerk about it, in case it came off that way

yes and no, the instrumentation is different but this c minor progression loop is very popular, there is no melody until the end where i think your progressing fine after arpeggiating the chord.

A far as listener experience, I think that you strike the right tone with melody and short builup - definitely would like to hear what you will do with the rest of this idea, sweet, catchy and with excelent potential to be develop into a great track/song/production.
Cheers,
Darek
