This song I made I picture being used as a villian's theme in a video game or something. I especially imagine it working when the villian is first introduced. It has piano, trumpet, and a low midi brass sound.

I started with just the piano up untill the 1:48. Then I added the next section playing around with the trumpet and the low midi brass and liked it, so I expanded the rest of the song with that instrumentation. It took me a while to expand it, I was fairly content with just the piano. But I knew the song could have more to it, but I didn't want to ruin the simple dourness of just the piano. Though, with just the piano the song wasn't finished. It just sort of stopped. I have a real problem making endings to these songs, but this songs ending is probably one of my better ends.

The theme starts simply, almost too simply, but slowly builds. The end has the basic theme expanded, but much darker.

I made this song in Sonar Home Studio, I'd say took me a couple of weeks to get the main piano part. Then the song sat for a while, and I added the trumpet/brass part in another week. Out of all the songs I've made it has the greatest sense of Felling for me.

The mp3 of the song

Don't be too harsh on this amateur production . Nah, I can take it.

Don't worry, im not gonna say much, I mostly am posting cause i feel just as bad for you as i do myself, cause we're not getting any posts.

i really enjoyed the piano at the start, it was nicely done, i just feel, for a VG song, i do believe that there shoud be more other instruments than a piano that would sound better at that part. I guess its just me.

So i enjoyed the brass part at the end, nicely done, i think thats all i had to say, i hope that wasn't too much.

Love, Kyle Infante

Thanks for the reply.

Yeah, this song didn't really start out as a video game song. But I thought it could be as I was making it. It is a tad slow at parts for a video game.

I like to keep my instrumentation simple, no more than 3-5 parts.

Perhaps some drums are in order for this song, to keep it from sounding so barren.
