This is for the Orchestra Mac12 Jan/Feb -

http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1287744


So this is my first track of 2012! Yay! So I thought to myself since the year 2012 is so popular for being our last year, then why not make my first track all about that.


For this I was looking for a sort of disaster sound, which was one of the hardest things I stupidly decided to do. However, although the entire track was to represent megasized chaos I did want to dive into a sort of survival sound, because that's what it's all about, surviving the entity which causes the threat. What that threat is, I'll leave to your imagination. Because of the nature of genre, I wanted things to twist, turn, stun and clash, yet then be able to come together. It proved troublesome, but so much fun ( I can say that now that's done!" lol)


Theres a full orchestra running here with aggressive percussion to cause a bit more drama and some choirs here and there to emphasise scale of events which take place illustrating the impending doom. You may find that you need to turn up your volume, my mastering is a bit poor and I can't seem to get things loud without distorting the sound.


I've heard some excellent tracks in the OrchMac12 so far, with some stunning compositions from great artists, and as I've read more to come! If you haven't heard about the OrcMac then there's still time to enter! The final date is Feb 15th. All the best to all the involved artists!


Thanks for listening!

P.S. My computer hated me for this project.

When Henry Stickmin kicks in:

10 years and still good ;)

damn, this is so good mamamsnsnsmseoor

This piece was perfect for my boss level. In fact, three of my boss levels had your music in it! Two of them were in a mod that allowed me to get GD 2.2 early, which had the new Spike Ball enemy! Dude, this is NEXT LEVEL stuff! If you want to play the level, the ID is 71279634. I would appreciate it if you were to play and comment. I wasn't able to use the entire song, but I have just asked someone to help me complete the level. All five minutes. Could you give the level a comment?

Glad to hear you're enjoying my 10 year old tracks! Amazing to think they have some longevity, thanks!!
