Hello there,
I have made my first track in lmms... Ok, not my first, but first which I am proud of.
Piano is the most familiar instrument for me, so I used it as the main melody.
I would be grateful for Your feedback

It sounds good, I like how the lo-fi element comes into it, but ends with the piano section again.

Though are the bass notes on the piano played with the same accent as the melody notes that occur on the same beat? (if that makes sense)... It sounds like the bass notes are softer which is odd for piano or some of the accents feel unnatural,,, I'm probably wrong, but I thought I'd bring it up since it's the best I can do at being "constructive".

Also, what are you using for the piano instrument? It sound pretty good.

But anywho, I like it.

Actually, as a piano player, I can confirm that the bass notes on piano should almost always be played quieter than the treble notes. There are a few exceptions, of course, but that's usually the general rule, since the right hand (treble) is almost always playing the melody.

HA! This is just adds to the reasons why I'm terrible at piano... I do a lot of accenting in unison on my left and right hand....

Thanks for Your feedback. The bass line can sound softer, because I used bass booster to increase the difference between the bass and violin lines.
(adding 2 identical ingredients to the same dish is not optimal sollution)
About the instrument, I use this:

This is lovely. And I like the piano melody too. :)

Tip: The tune, sounds a bit too soft. Just raise up the volume, on the track a tiny bit. ;)
