At Nigh in Egypt

Featured Replies

Hello Guys,
This is my brand new. What do you think?

 

Hi @olivercomposer,

You have included some exotic instruments and sound effects here with middle east scale for me. I like your new try here! In 2:18 when the brass appears I think you are heading to your familiar style, but you return to the exotic style which is good!

Thanks for sharing!

You've definitely got the "palette" of that sort of style down, but I would say that the bassline could be more active and move more contrapuntally to the melody, and your string accompaniment is stepping on the melody a fair bit

This has the full flavor of the Middle East and the Mediterranean.

Hi Oliver. I would say that the strings at the beginning don't convince me much. Apart from that, it was a really enjoyable tune.

Kind regards!!

I like your use of the phrygian dominant scale along with exotic instruments which really lend this piece a very Egyptian atmosphere!  Great job with that!  I don't think I can really say anything to improve the mood you intended to present/exhibit here.  Despite modulating you end the piece in the same key in which you began which shows some craft.  Thanks for sharing!
