I love your combination of electric sounds and orchestral music. The problem I have with most "epic orechestral music" tracks is, that however original the composition might be to me 90% of them sound pretty much the same with different chord progressions. This song however, is as unique as it gets. It combines epic orchestral music with a catchy DnB-videogame track, that changes into complete epicness after 2:08. The arpeggiate harp combined with the driving tune from the first half plus the Yoi-synth really makes the second half the cherry on a musical cake of epicness, that really fits the theme of Boss music. To me this song is already one of, if not THE winner of this contest. Great job :) ( Wow I really got emotional writing this review)
Reviews for "Our Last Hope"
Wow thank you so much for your review SoTJake :)
There are some really awesome entries out there so far and I'm pretty sure there are many more on the way before the deadline! I don't really care about winning, it's just fun to participate in these kind of contests and hearing what everyone can come up with :) Everyone deserves 1st place for joining.
What a masterpiece! Truly wonderful!
Thank you VideoGameManiac :D
The sheer creativity and excitement this piece has is inspiring! With this lighthearted and happy-go-lucky sound, you inspire me to do my best out of complete joy. This is exactly what this competition needs. When the battle starts, the appegiated synth reminds me of some works by Muse. Not that this shows a lack of originality, but I suppose when people get images of their respected artists when they hear a new piece, it is considered to be quite good and appreciated all the same. The tempo change at 1:21 is quite nice too. There's so much going on here that it's hard to be able to grasp everything even after multiple listens--perfect for a video game during a battle section. The lead at 2:40 is a great choice. Transposed upwards at 3:06? Certainly sounds like it so by the end there's still a lot of suspense left. How many times do I need to replay this thing?!?!
As a side note, Emid's statement made me laugh: "I'll blow all judges..."
lawl
Thanks a lot Phonometrologist :)
You know what's funny? the tempo in this song doesn't change xD it stays at 140 bpm, I guess it feels that way because of those fast harp arpeggios before that part at 1:21 and the change of rhythm?
I hope your joining us in the contest as well, you better :P
Meowwwwww....:)
What a splendid, magnificent, spectacular, remarkably sick piece man. What a superb mixing! I just gave you a standing ovation! I mean literally!
Matt...your creativity at it's peak here. But I know men of your stature never stop. You have blown me away and I'll blow all judges if these piece doesn't find it's right place lol :) O goodness am listening over and over........
