December 26, 200916 yr Cool samples, orchestration. it reminds my of a Asian piece at some parts, and sometimes tribal. Enjoyed it!!!
December 27, 200916 yr Welcome to YC You have some nice sounds in this. Can you inform everyone what libraries you are using and what DAW? Also, please use English if at all possible. Ron
December 28, 200916 yr Hey, this is great work. My comments are mostly to help you think about your work from how I interpret it, so my "review" of your work isn't really a thumbs-up/thumbs-down thing at all. I enjoy the sounds and the mood you evoke in the work, I only want to spark more "thought" about the work for you. Composition: This is quite concert-oriented, which is a great thing (shows maturity and competence that you know what you're doing). There is a clear form, very specific sections of the piece stand out, and from this stand-point, I have to ask what is your intention for the piece? I'm only confused because you so clearly indicate, at least for me, that this is music you'll hear on a concert. Is this music for a film? A game? Orchestration: This speaks for itself - outstanding. Good selection of instruments to set a mood that is understood very well by Western culture. We hear "indigenous" instruments and immediately think, "Oh, well, this is tribal, primal, etc." So, great. The Mix: Okay, I strongly suggest that you mix down the string entrance, as they really overpowered the colors you were building. The balance was really off when they entered, and I think it's one of those subtle things we can overlook because we lose that sense of delicacy we need for the traditional pan flutes and other ethnic instruments. I really hope you'll consider this in any edits you do to the mix. All in all, great work. I hope my "review" was helpful. -AA
December 31, 200916 yr Other than the excellent cultural instrumentation you employed, I must say I am most impressed with your articulation. You make it very clear to hear the drum taps, tinks, clanks, etc. My only complaint is that it is too short and ends very abruptly. A lot of people are cutting their compositions short. There may or may not be a reason for this, but this is beautiful! We want more! Thank you for sharing this. Excellent work!
January 4, 201016 yr Ooooh, as I started entering this comment the choir came in. Very good work with the library, sir! Anyways, I like the feel of this piece. It sounds like another one in the film genre, but you didn't post it to there. It has a contemporary feel but you use some classical Asiatic sounds. The motives keep this work flowing and the only thing I felt it missed was some sort of climax - it was indeed a little on the short side, but that's no matter if it was intended as a film cue or looping material for a game soundtrack. You are a very good orchestrator, my hat off to you.
February 26, 201016 yr Very nice job! The rhythms are fantastically evocative, and as AntiA said, the orchestration is just magnificent! :D I'm rating this 10/10 and adding this to my favorite's list! :) Thanks for sharing, this was very enjoyable! Also, welcome to Young Composers! I hope you enjoy the site ;)
