Main Theme (Mass Effect) - Orchestral Cover

[Light_of_Aether]

Hi! It's been a while since I've asked for feedback. I made an orchestral cover of the Mass Effect main theme. What do you think? Arrangement improvements? Mixing improvements? Instrument swaps? By the way, this song will not be submitted to OCReMix for consideration. Thanks! I appreciate the feedback.

+2 Paragon! And can we just appreciate that this was made using reaper?
Okay, jokes aside. I enjoyed the somewhat gentle intensity of your cover. It isn't as open and spacious as the original, but I appreciate the condensed atmosphere. And I'm a sucker for choirs. The guitar (lead?) threw me off a bit, though, I'm not quite sure if it blends well with the rest of the piece. Throwing in such a lead for the part seems like a good idea, so keep working with the concept. All in all, I enjoyed the piece, good work!

Thanks! I actually missed the reaper connection somehow. 

Yeah, the guitar lead could use some work. I'm not happy with it either.

Thanks for the feedback!

I swapped the guitar for two trombones and a bass trombone. Here's the updated track: https://soundcloud.com/willpisani/mass-effect-main-theme-v11. What do you think?

The brass replacing the guitar makes that section MUCH more cohesive with the whole. Excellent!
