Here it is on Soundcloud (So the link is working):
https://soundcloud.com/user-290071476/orchestral-wip

I have experimented with Garageband on my Iphone, but felt very limited.

This is the first song I've made in LMMS, but have been making it on my piano for a few months. I used the Delay Lama and the DSK Overture VSTs.

I'm new to music making, so I'm sure I have a lot to improve on!

Welcome to the forum j7h18! First, For you, all important links:

And a few rules for posting and using the right sub-forum :)

I will still recommend that you post on soundcloud, if you want replies, the best thing is to use the LMMS-sC-group.

The link you posted is btw locked and private :)

Sorry about that! I meant to post it as unlisted rather than private, but now the link should work. I will post via soundcloud next time. Thanks for the information

Lovely track. Cool yet surreal ambient music. :)
And nice piano playing.
Delay Lama sounds good in this, even though he's singing a bit softly.
Maybe if he sang, a slight tiney tiny bit louder, just a bit more voice volume, he might sound even
more epic, doing his background vocals. But despite that, this music sounds nice.
Good to see Delay Lama being used in tracks like this.

Very cool! A lovely track to listen too. 8-)

Thanks! I turned up the Delay Lama and added a little drumming where the song picks up:

Now this is quite a big improvement over the last version.
Very lovely. The drumming does add to the track nicely.
And with Delay Lama singing a bit louder, it sounds much more fuller and energetic now. 8-)
The previous one was good and this new version is quite more epic.
Fantastic work dude.
