Joy Ride - Orchestral

Author Comments

Classical orchestral music inspired by racing games! I wanted to capture a sense of frenetic, driving energy.


I'm working on my orchestration chops. Shout out to my friend Keith for providing useful guidance on this one. Let me know how you think it turned out!


You can also listen with sheet music if you prefer.

May not quite fit for a racing track, but as a battle theme for a typical mob enemy in a Zelda-esque game, this would actually kick so much ass. This is great and I really jam with it!

BenTibbetts responds:

Awesome, thank you and glad you enjoyed it!

Amazing orchestra chops but it is lackluster for a racing game which brings my score down since if you are in a racing game you would want the strings to be energetic. In general it’s meh, 5.5/10 just work on making it energetic and doing strings is hard but for the next song I hope there are other instruments so that if you are in a racing game you can feel that energy, keep going πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ”₯

BenTibbetts responds:

Okay, thanks! Perhaps I'll do better next time, moving from meh to meh-xcellent.

edit: that would be meh-gical

Hard to really say the angle youre going for here. I think racing is more upbeat and energetic not sure if Orchestra really fits.

BenTibbetts responds:

Hey Wegra, thanks for the feedback! That's fair. I was really thinking of something more like a cartoon-style than a modern racing game.
