My First Video-Game Soundtrack

Featured Replies

Hello all! I'm proud to present my first soundtrack as a composer for the game, 5 Heroes. I was wondering if anything stood out to you, good or bad. Does the album feel cohesive as a whole? Was any instrument choice out-of-place?

Thank you for replying back.

Congrats! =D

This is just my personal opinion.

Battle of the 5 Heroes: The transitions are too subtle for me to hear, I'd say make the transitioning fills more "noticeable" (but don't overdo it). Also, the rhythm seems to be too repetitive, if I used an example on 0:33, maybe make the rhythm a bit more "minimalistic" and "small" for that part to give more suspense, and then unleash the regular rhythm again when the middle-registered instruments come in? 

Land of Andoran: Great job for a suspenseful, quiet track. I don't think the middle strings should QUICKLY bow when it starts from 0:08. I'm pretty sure that's just a technical thing, though.

Village Attack: The percussion gave chills to my brain (meaning good job), but perhaps you could add some "chordal" elements in order for the tune to sound fuller?

Dread Of The Village People: Good job.

Firestone Forest: Great job, well-structured! It really feels like someone is jogging through the dark forest surrounded by dark objects. Transitions are great for this one! Excellent! :)

For the rest, I don't really have too many complaints.

I don't think the instrumentation for each tune is out-of-place at all. Your instrumentation choices were great.
