Hi, This is a the next track in the series from my 'Empire Overture', and is the theme of the main character to a book I'm writing. Once again, I made this a while back, but would love some feedback and support.

Hi,

Beautiful work!

I would like to hear a more human touch to the music. Sounds a bit too mechanical... Add some dynamics and expression in the lines...

Watch your low register... sounds a bit muddy at times.

Hope this helps. :)

Enjoyed!

Thank you, my friend. You're the first person to comment.
Yes your points are very applicable, however, my music is played using virtual instruments, and they're not the best, so it is hard for me to create a human sounding sound.

Thanks again for the review.

Hi Phil,

I understand the instrument problem... if there "would be" a score - I'd score it a 3.2 out 5 stars. Not bad at all!
