Hi, and in advance sorry for my bad English.

I'm composing 10 years already (but only last 4 years are most active), have 64 tracks in portfolio and works passed with 2 idie-games already, and aimed to be a soundtrack composer.

But faced a serious obstacle: I do not know where and how to offer myself (at least for the expansion of the audience, not to mention trying to make some money) to get a professional job. Here I got through the search, after a friend's recommendation to search for resources of game developers.

There is also a second one: I'm have a growing feel, that somehow my works are not good enough, but I just can not figure it out what exactly is going wrong and how can I fix it.

So, have anyone any ideas or advises about it all?

===

I'm composig in soundtrack genres, game or film kinds. The main element of my style is orchestration with elements of epic but also quite often with electronics and electric guitars. 

If interested, all tracks available here.

Some examples from my works:

1. Currently most fresh one: (Orchestral only)

2. Relatively most popular: (epic rock)

3. Last from game project: (electronics mostly)

4. Typical from my style: (orchestration + electronics + guitars)

5. And from scenical OST-type of compositions: (orchestration + electronics + guitars)

In advance: thanks for answers.

I don't really understand what are you asking.

If you feel you work is not good enough, try finding and internship or become someone's "apprentice", find a mentor.

If your problem is with selling yourself. I think the answer is to be more bold. As Dan Pena would say "Pull the ........ trigger"

If only I could find one who would agree to this. Expecially in my country and town.

Not only with selling but also growing the audience. A simple strategy of self-publishing "wherever possible", for all 4 years, has yielded clearly small results for plays. Not even mention about buyers.

But what about hitting the target?

You need a personalized website that features YOUR brand and then you can use those public things like Youtube, Soundcloud, etc to point back to your branded website. 

 Thats interesting idea, thanks. I will try it.

But then I guess i will need someone who'll properly translate to English (otherwise some visitors may not stand my Russian accent  ), and especially the web-designer.

I've listened to a few bits and pieces of your music and it's certainly good enough for devs to want to use it. So this makes me suspect that it's more about how and where you're marketing and branding yourself.

Thanks. Yeah, exatly. I found myself a complete amateur in self-promotion.

why not create a sampler video that highlights the best sections of those pieces?

Oh... I never even heard about that...

You mean, video sampler with short fragments?

Okay, will do it as soon as possible.

Also I find that adding some more real instruments, or very authetic sounding virtual instrument, will make the song feels more real.

Currently, I often use a synthesizer.

I also want to use live electric guitars one day (even already have one). But I need to learn how to play them first.

I've listened through all of the tracks you've posted above. I think, they sounds fine. Certainly indie developers might have some use of them. However I find that they sounds like all instruments are from a sound module. It feels a bit flat (non-eq wise. It's a bit hard to describe...). My suggestion is, you might want to look more into mixing and mastering process.

Thanks.

Yes, sound processing is still difficult for me. I'm constantly looking for information and practice, I have all the frequency tables and a bunch of instructions and manuals. But all of this clearly does not help to get closer to understanding the process, without which it is impossible to solve each individual case.
