I like the strong emphasis on the downbeats and the frantic string lines in between. It sounds like a large, lumbering beast indeed, almost like the camera is viewing the tortuga from the perspective of an ant. The mix is very quiet, though, and the melodies at :47 could be a bit more up-front in the mix. The composition could be a bit more fleshed-out and variational, but the content you have here now is still evocative and well-orchestrated. Keep at it, IglicaV! Thanks for coming out to the NGUAC. ^_^

Great sound choices and driving arrangement. I think it's a bit short, this would make a great sample library demo or cutscene music. The latter half feels like a loading screen where I'm waiting to spawn into battle, or after action, when the battle has concluded post-cutscene.

I think the master could be much louder and more compression applied, given that this is a bombastic piece, but for what it is, great work!

Short, perhaps, but very sweet. Your orchestration is actually very nice. This gives me some Pirate of the Caribbeans meets upscaled classic Runescape soundtrack. I only wish this were longer! You've earned a new follower in me :) Good luck Iglica in the NGUAC finals!
