hm, what do you think? Is it catchy? Hopefully this will be the end scene and credits score to a movie.

Hey Jake!

This is intro is a lot more serious than I was expecting. I was expecting pop. So far, it's cool. Fairly sombre. How are you panning the strings around? Violins should be on the left, cellos and bass on the right. I can't tell exactly how you did it here. I think you should put a touch of reverb on those percussive strings. Everything else has a bit on it so it feels weird that the strings are so dry.

Cool piece! Definitely credits worthy.

Thanks John! It slipped my mind about the precussive strings. Will fix. As for the panning there is none. I guess that leads on to mastering and leveling and of this I know nothing. Shall have to get help with that if I get to make a movie. Thanks for listening!

Yes this was pretty serious indeed. I agree with the percussive strings john pointed out. I liked the sea sounds in the beginning. It felt to me that the 'heartbeat' sounds at 1:30-1:50 didnt really nailthe beat there. I don't know what it was. Another thing: I would suggest tuning down the level on those two chords at the end of the piece. They stood out a bit too much for my taste. Overall well done!

I love this. So ambient. My only concern is the strings are a tad too in your face. As John said, maybe adding some reverb, or try a different sample.

Overall, I really enjoyed the mood you represented. Great job!

Thank you so much! Adamich, do you also meen the precussive strings "stagatto" or whatever they are called? Gave them the same treatment I gave the other strings (cutoff and reverB) So I think they're all right now. Also fixed the harp chords in the end. Thanks again you all.

very nice opening. I was expecting to join the short strings, it follows that it is a start, but then was replaced by the piano. so I can not play the piano. I think the speed of the play here. I like the bass is really highlighted. liked it, but I was happy would be a bit longer.
