Dude this is amazing! I should start visiting here more often
New composition here. This time it definitely went the dramatic way. Within the soundtrack I wanted to express the happening of a medieval grand battle, a dramatic event that did cost thousands of lifes.
I dispense with windwoods this time. I wanted to keep the real epic and dramatic feeling and windwoods didn't really fit my setup. The only exception is the contrabassoon, which basically just supports the many low brasses in order to make them sound more... powerful.
This orchestra is built with:
Octobass
Double Basses
Cellos
Violas
Violines
Contrabassoon
Tubas
Contrabass Trombones
Bass Trombones
Tenor Trombones
Bass Trumpets
Trumpets
Male Choir
Male Soloist
Vibraphone
Snare
Mid Toms
Timpani
Bass Drums
E-Drums
Cymbals
Shakers
The Octobass obviously isn't a real one (there are only few ones existing in the world and therefore there are no samples of it either). What I did was taking another Double Bass and pitched it down digitally. I just wanted to have the very deep pitch, which the usual Double Bass is unable to play (A0).
