So, I'm no music professional, so my criticism would be as a consumer of music, and not a creator. My points:

  • The Radio: It sounded rather generic, right up until those last 10 secs of the song! I know that you probably included those effects to finish it off, but perhaps you could include it at the start aswell? I think it'd be eye catching (or, I suppose, ear catching). Other than that, it sounds nice, a bit of background music, but nonetheless nice. The beats are definitely a highlight of the song, and so is the sax. I also liked the "disk scratching" sound halfway through.

  • Street Performance: Sounds pretty nice, I feel that every part has the same sound presence, if that makes sense - no one sound stands above the rest. The trumpet/sax is pretty nice aswell, and this is when I realized that you generally like to end your songs with something a bit unique for the 5 to 10 secs remaining. Out of all the songs, this one fits it's name the best.

  • Elevator: Sounds like the background music for a hotel. I could also see it as a backing track in something like Persona. Here, you break the mold with finishing with something a little different. Even so, I think it sounds really nice.
