Henry Ng Tsz Kiu Posted December 13, 2023 Share Posted December 13, 2023 Hello @Gabriel Carlisle, The track does have some epic feeling! I love the development after 0:50 when you use octatonically related keys which are common in film music. The parallel fifths for sure add the thickness of the track which enhances the epic feeling. Thx for sharing! Henry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aw Ke Shen Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 (edited) This is short but epic! The gradual development and adding of layers kinda parallels with Suzume's main theme, just without a human voice, and with much more use of percussion. The use of percussion here makes it sound more Idk... western-movie-like/ like the music of other popular and long anime series rather than the songs of an anime movie. Some parts of this remind me of the main theme of the soundtrack of Magnificent Century, a Turkish historical fiction series.

Gabriel Carlisle Posted January 4 Author Share Posted January 4 Thanks for the feedback! I didn’t really want to use the percussion library I used and wanted to use a taiko ensemble (which is what I think Suzume used). However don’t have access to one. That’s probably why it sounded more western was bc I used an average epic perc library which is used often in western. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardian25 Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I really like this piece! I am curious as to how you go about composing this type of music! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel Carlisle Posted January 19 Author Share Posted January 19 To be completely honest I just mess around and compose the next thing that comes to mind. I started with the strings then percussion then brass (and I didn’t use woodwinds as I am still learning how to use them correctly). This is my first attempt at having multiple articulations being used in a single piece which I feel I did well with. Also I always have a major inspiration when I compose something large scale, I was inspired by the Suzume soundtrack when I made this track specifically the Abandoned Resort track. I recommend listening to that track if you liked this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layne Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 This sounds awesome!! Super epic! I recently made my own epic battle song, though yours feels more like a triumphant moment. The pace. The action. Some hints of Danny Elfman sounds in there? I think you accomplished your goal well and I love this piece! Would be interested in hearing more of your work! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could also include a list of your compositions (sometimes called a "press kit") in the "About Me" section of your profile where you can edit the text any way you want including hyperlinks to them. I think it might have been @Omicronrg9 who was the first to do this and since it was such a great idea many composers including myself have followed suit and created their own with their own categorizations of their compositions.
