Feedback Thread!

I don't know if it's fine to post a new thread, but then again I tend to worry about little things so I'm taking a shot anyways. If I shouldn't make a thread like this lemme know.
Moving on!
I've created several tracks of music over the last year or so. I tend to work on them for months at a time before even considering releasing them. I've had a few tracks released for months at this point, but I don't ever really get feedback on them, so I'm curious as to if you all here could give me some feedback. Since this is the Creative Expression area, figured I'll post 'em here. You can find the 3 tracks I've made below.

Silence Within

Thanks for any feedback given! Feel free to share anything you've made too.

Jesus, that third album must be over an hour and a half.

These are solid environmental landscapes and there is nothing wrong with that. They would go well in a film or some such.

If I were you I would concentrate on going an entirely different direction and then go back and combine it with this. Write nothing but a melody and counterpoint it against this. But then I am a melody and hooks kinda guy.

I liked the piano one the most. It held my interest. The other two got tiring and I wound up pausing them. Just to be sure, I went back to the first one, and it still held my interest.

Probably! Though I didn't really check.

I might give that a shot. Trying new things and going in different directions, even as an experiment, can help a fair amount. But thank you!

Can't blame you, the other two were rather repetitive. A problem I have when it comes to music is that I start off the track great, and then.. just, kind of fail to think of something to make it stay interesting. Some don't mind it too much, but I can see how it can just be tiring to others.
