      Hi, just found Ur channel and the content U've got there is very informative and helpful! 🤍❤🖤 I just started composing with the start of this year and I'm trying to find my genre, is there any possibility of sending U some tracks so U could say what's done properly and what's not? If it's not a problem I'd be very pleased if U told me afterwards what of Ur other videos should I watch to fill the gaps in my knowledge 🙏
