I started this group fairly recently for my students, friends, and for myself. It's starting to get some good numbers. We're looking for real criticism - techy stuff as well as touchy feely stuff!

from soundcloud:
Modern Music Lessons students range from total beginners to signed artists with major labels. This group is intended to be a place for everybody to share their works in progress with the intention of gathering CONSTRUCTIVE criticism, both positive and negative. Soundcloud tends to be a little too nice, whereas Youtube seems to be a little too immature. We're looking for a nice balance here.
Contributing Producers are encouraged to post 'draft details' in their titles and/or comments;
examples:
Zombie Eyes - Draft 3, 15 hours deep, unmixed, looking for help on the breakdown and ending
AfroStomp - Draft 5, 40 hours deep, rough mix, not sure about arrangement big picture
Scilian - Draft 1, just started, not sure which direction to take it in, genre ideas anybody?
