Really love it!
This is very well written, and the intro blew me away! Great song structure and melody. I'd love to see an orchestra play it live.
Likes what I hears
You have it, I enjoyed your little start up, I imagine it could have surged out a bit more with different pianos, a harp and probably an organ into a "stormy" sort of feel, but considering your rhythm and aim at the song, it probably would not have fit. The background is too hollow, a simple background string would have been good to cover that up, a slow song playing in the background, and if you focused the melody to revolve around that, you would have came up with a song that bounces heads. All and all it's not bad, your breaks in pace sort of gotten repetitive, after twice it should have picked up again in my opinion, and to better capitalize on it, you could have sort of composed a new rhythm from that and returned to your original.
Instrument-wise, I don't see any real issues other than the lack thereof. Very nice work.
really nice
the louder parts with the snare drum were so epic. as was the rest of the song. i especially loved around 2:31. my suggestion would be, on the louder parts with the snare, to add in ghost notes between snare hits as it builds. I also would suggest doing some things to "humanize" the drums. I dont know what program you use (i use fl, so its kinda easy for me...), but just add slight variation to each snare/bass drum hit in the pattern/clip/whatever. it can be as simple as changing the volume slightly of each hit randomly, or you can also slightly move some/each hit off tempo, just slightly. or both. it may seem silly, but it can really add to a drum track, especially something like this where your trying to make it sound real. Honestly it sounds good enough that you dont really have to go through the hassle, but to make it really pop in a professional sense, you may be surprised at how much humanizing your drums can make something epic, even more so.
Anyways, good job, and keep up the good work.

eh i cant, because stupid edirol resets every time you exit fl studio, so i would have to go fiddle around and find all the right instruments again. Ehh next time :D Thanks though I know what u mean.
great for games!
This would be awesome for a flash game, like the defend the castle games. Very much effort put into this, I can tell, very smooth and intense at the same time. Instruments sound great. Could use better transitions though, only downside.
