The rhythmic figures really gives a sense of motion, thus it fits the description of "not stopping" really really well. I really loved the string harmonies at the beginning. It conveys the image of wind, rain and snow perfectly! I agree it's not particularly melodic, but the rhythmic motif is already good enough to catch any listener's attention, while the changing melodic line on top of it gives it more variation.
The first instrument at the woodwind part (oboe?) plays a solid melody, though not too catchy. at 2:11, the most beautiful part comes in. I can see light, shimmering softly in the darkness, and the peril and danger has all but gone.
This is great, nikolas, thanks for sharing and I'm gonna listen to it again!
BTW, what place did you come in for this entry?
