Do you know if there is a sample out there that I can listen to? I've never seen or heard tubulars being bowed. Only struck with a mallet; which causes it to ring alongside a secondary minor 6th under-pitch. Thanks. -

Hey @AngelCityOutlaw! I am not really familiar with the music from Tomb Raider so I don't know how much of this is original and how much comes from the OST. But what I hear sounds great! Not only does it have great production value and great dynamic contrasts, but the material itself is beautiful. Thanks for sharing! -

Hi @Layne! This is kinda cool - I like the mixture between major and minor. How much do you know about music theory? It seems sometimes like your chord voicings are kinda stark. Also - even though the ideas in this piece are pretty cool you mostly just repeat the same idea for the whole time (except for that short respite at around 0:50). But you do add unique melodic layers on top of the pattern. It does sound like a secret laboratory though - I can imagine all the beakers, clamps, burners, and microscopes. So great job there! Thanks for sharing. -

Hi @olivercomposer! Wow! Kudos on working with a live recording of the lyrics! Did you write the lyrics yourself? They're pretty good! Maybe the "oh's" at the end of each verse/stanza seem a bit melodramatic but I can see why you included them - they act to conclude and create a kind of recurring coda to each verse. I love the modulation into major - that's a great contrast. The production value is pretty good but somewhat disjointed between the instrumental and the audio of the singer which seems (to me) to be of a slightly lower quality than the vst's. I know this is probably meant to be futuristic sounding but to me it sounds more steampunk/gothic. Overall, great job though! Thanks for sharing. -

Hi @Symphonic! Very cool - pointillistic sometimes. There is definitely a recurring theme to this although it was quite unusual and disjointed. Or at least very fragmented/dissolute. I like also all the polyrhythms going at different rates. I was going to say - "but where's the gospel choir?" LoL But is this your own arrangement of Amazing Grace or a performance of someone else's arrangement? Either way the performance is quite good! You also don't really explain how the Palette piece is supposed to be connected/related to the Amazing Grace song. At the point at which they connect they're in the same key - at least that much is audible though. Overall this was mostly quite enjoyable! There were a few spots where I felt like you kept me as the listener waiting for something though. But other than that it was great! Thanks for sharing.
