JDHarding Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 (edited) Links break and I just don't have the time to fix broken links anymore. So please visit my Youtube channel instead. Maybe this song is still available there. Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqbYqubafT8enk7_wLD5C2Q Edited August 7, 2020 by JDHarding Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Smooth4lyfe1987 Posted April 17, 2016 Report Share Posted April 17, 2016 Ha this is pretty cool. Much more dramatic than the original one. I think it could be mixed better....the drums seem to have so much reverb, and those horns could stand out more. I like how it sounds, but if the mixing was better and sounded more cleaner, it would be good Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BorgMan Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Yeah, the mixing could be better. The piano at the beginning sounds a bit bland as well, it's missing the depth the rest of the instruments do have. It does sounds like a nice orchestral piece but until the 1:00 minute mark there's not a lot of instruments that take center stage. The mix reminds me a lot of Enya's Orinoco Flow for some reason or another. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shadowe Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 This almost feels like two seperate songs put together, one that's got more of an Enya/Stranger in Moscow feel and another that's got a very powerful military-esque feel. Both sides remind me a lot of the Children of Dune soundtrack (particularly 2, 3, and 4) in how they capture a sort of sweeping/epic feel, one soft and just this side of Stranger in Moscow's melancholic tone and the other powerful and inspiring. When the drums kick in I almost expect to hear the sound of an army marching past in full dress. The transitions are a bit jarring though, and imho what you've got so far would go amazing with a clear the-orchestra-is-right-there sound. The song builds very smoothly right up through 30s and then just jumps into the brass. The drums at 1:01 fit in better but something about the sound makes it "feel" like it's uncomfortably loud or clipping even though I turned my headphones almost to minimum volume when the brass came in. I think once you figure out how you want to "flow" through the different sections you've arranged I'm going to wind up downloading another Sonic 3 remix off OCR.
