Since I haven't really posted my music much here, I thought I would share a few pieces starting with this fun track I did. I call it fun because of how it came together. It has something for everyone ha!

Interesting to finally hear the music behind familiar faces.
Really enjoyed this. Had to listen at low volume, but will definitely come back for a headphone listen. Maybe I'll have more to say, after that.
Great job!

Lovely, nice ideas, good production. I think that a little less Hans Zimmer would help this track, a more delicate touch, it doesn't really need the bombast. To my ears, of course.

Being musical is always a good thing! It's nice to hear MUSICAL music in what seems a world devoid of it at times. (eg. Pop, Rap.) Nice work.

I mean, I just don't know what to say. You joined over 13 years ago and this is your first post?
Thank you for the kind words...and what an honor.

First rate composition.
I thought that huge hit at 0:59 was OK the first time but then lost its impact when repeated. The sound at 3:33 was sort of like nails on a chalkboard for me.

Nice. Liked the breakdown at 1:37. Nice cinematic piano and choirs.

I liked it. I didn't mind the "bombast", in fact I enjoyed the contrast between the louder elements and the quieter passages. In fact the quieter passages sounded very tasteful in both the composition and instrumentation departments. I think I agreed with Franz' comment about the "whistle" sound at 3:33. It sounded "artificial" and contained some resonances which seemed to be fighting the melody.
All in all, a very credible and accomplished piece of music which would probably be at home in a soundtrack application.
Good work
