What's with all these games? :O
It seems like half of your music on this page is for some production or another. Nook, Escalation, Tribal War... But then again, you're often just that good. :P This song's giving me that impression already.
Having composed my first orchestral (thanks again for reviewing it :D) now I see how it can be difficult to incorporate more instruments than simply strings in certain situations when the song is fine as it is. So I'm not criticising you for it... and I have to say it definitely IS pretty good as is. :D Epic.
Little or no repetition, but one song, marching forward. The tribe members now wander on their own, each with their own unique slopes and turns in their way. Remember Passionate Freedoms? Imagine that, except our character's walking into the sunset. Instead of a "walking along a path" feeling, wandering is the word to describe travel. But that's not what my feature story is this time... ;)
This song being as it is, I have nearly no criticism for it. Great variation, it's always new and yet the notes don't sound random. Something I think I should bring up, though - I don't quite know what to call them, but those foreboding-sounding, reeverbed drums in the background... instead of having them play something like every measure, why don't you try sometime holding them off at parts as the song quiets down... and then bringing them back in as the song shifts into motion again for extra effect? Just a thought.
Hmm. As you thought my song's file size was a bit big, I'm curious as to why this one's is so small. I'm guessing it's, what, two? Three minutes long? You must have exported it at one small bitrate to have that size.
A view of sunset is my first image. The sky at the ground is bright red and as one, standing on the ground, looks up, the colors shift through the rainbow spectrum until, on the other side of the horizon, they attain an eerie violet. The ground on the horizon near the sun shimmers and waves, due to heat, and through the ripples, distant figures phase in and out of visibility.
The image extends down here, and a tree comes into view. Despite its crooked stature and knobbly texture, it is healthy. It leans over, like an aged man bent from the trials of life. The camera continues to pan down. Slash marks are seen on the tree.
What really happened here is anyone's guess. As the sun continues to set, the figures disappear over the horizon for the last time. The sky fades, and the birds stop chirping. Life slows to a stop until the morning.
Quite some imagery inspired by another great song. :) Voted 5, and downloaded... great job on this one. And... expect a review for one of your less recent songs in the near future, as well. I gave it a listen and I decided I would HAVE to review it sooner or later. :) Keep up the good work.
