July 30, 20187 yr What kind of incidental/soundtrack music are you intending? Listening to the first 10 seconds I feel like you're burning all your ideas and looking at the length I have a hard time seeing what the rest is about. It relies too much on bells and whistles and I feel like you're covering up a weak idea with drums, minor third transpositions and staccato strings. Not speaking in musical but in sheer drama the track doesn't develop. It doesn't tell the story. It's obvious you are playing with some harmonic ideas you've grasped from soundtracks but you can't make an audience follow you on simply that and the three above points for 4 minutes. You need dips and rises, tension and release, dark and light, protagonist and antagonist, motivation and obstacle. It's a good study for you to do this and good to hear you scratching the surface of it – time to dig deeper! Thanks for sharing!
