3 Major Introduction Songs

These are three songs which sound like introductory themes...

The Crimson Dawn
Majestic as the Sun
Eternal Summit

The first of them, The Crimson Dawn, has a very spacious sound to it... definately reminds me of a quiet morning to begin with, but the sound becomes more full and the mood begins to change through it and an almost chaotic sound grows out of the peaceful melody... Best suited to maybe a theme for a game where a particular sunrise is a significant event...

Majestic as the Sun isnt exactly a reference to the sun, but it holds a majestic and grand theme which could be used in a medieval style game... It is a little short, so it would be better suited for maybe the starting cinematic of a game whereby the final crash could present the menu screen of a game

And finally, Eternal Summit... This one may sound really overdone... I marvel at this one because of how dramatic it is... It sounds like the kind of song you would hear when a protagonist/hero, has discovered a holy relic in a movie... you could almost imagine someone discovering the resting place of the holy grail, then finding many grails and then finally picking the right grail... lol i dont know... what ever you might think of from it... i hope you like it...

Hehe, I'm first Let's go:

The Crimson Dawn: it wuold be great as a beginning of movie, maybe about old civilizations, Rome, Egypt...

Majestic as the Sun: I hoped that it will continue... Well, as you say, it will be good for a game (menu screen or cinematic you said), but in my opinion it's only single theme. I hoped it will evolve but... it ended. It's good theme but it's really short, music in game menus are looped, but they are few minutes long. (Far Cry, UT2003... do you like FPSes? )

Eternal Summit: VERY good work. Very simple rhytms, but they aren't disturbing while listening. When I listened to it, I imagined a man, who saw big, wonderful and amazing scenery. Do you know "Abyss"? In that movie was a scene (at the end), when our hero had to go down to the water and neutralize the bomb (if I remember), when he goes up, there's something wrong (I won't tell you, watch it by yourself... ) and he'll die, but in one moment the water draws aside and he's safe. (It's great movie). That music reminds me that scene of this movie.

Good music, waiting for more...

You have alot of good ideas going on here. Eternal Summit gives me the feeling of a landscape scene. Which the landscape is being shown when you first get to an area. Partically, a holy temple of some sort comes to my mind. It's very simplistic, but it does suit well. IMO you should try adding some other instruments in playing minor roles assisting the strings playing the melody. Overall a nice piece.

Thank you both for your replies !

Firstly, I agree fully about that song "Majestic as the sun... it was really built up to be something great... but it was too short... I do want to develop it... so I will eventuate to it!

And with Eternal summit, I too agree with the whole "Amazing scenery" concept... that was actually what I was intending for... that kind of feeling of seeing a large scale scene ... With developing the sound on this though, I'm open for suggestions cause I've kinda just accepted it this way... I would develop it... but I dont have any ideas...

If you want to continue the piece you can develop it as if you were walking around near the landscape, maybe theres a fountain or many steps.. you can show these things. It entirely depends on how vivid you want the scenery to be.
If you want to enhance the effect you can add a harp playing a whole tone scale or a guitar playing upstrokes or downstrokes depending on the feel you want and let them ring. There is alot you can still do if you choose to.
Hopefully, this information is useful to you.
