Hey All,
Been a while since I posted anything .. especially music so I thought I'd put this new piece of mine out there so you can see what I've been doing with myself.
Take a listen to this:
And
This is a piece from my latest project "Tales of the Thorns". This is a new thing I've been getting into that I call a Symphonic adventure. It's aimed at Role Players and people who like gaming, and those that like a good helping of drama in their music. The piece I'm showing here is part of the finale of the story where basically the 'heroes' of the story win (Guess I've given it all away now :P). There are also slower parts to the music and romantic parts. But I wanted the show you this because I rather think I did well with it.
If you're interested to hear the whole thing, or just demos of the tracks it's now up for sale on the iTunes store, also on CD Baby.com to which you can find the link from my website www.hetoreyn.com
I made the whole album on my 17inch MacBook Pro using Logic to create and Pro-tools to mix. And it's about 97% VSL instruments .. and a few Logic Synths thrown in. I'm rather proud of my brass work on this as it's usually the one element that I have a hell of a time getting to sound anywhere near real. Well I guess that's all subject to opinion, but even so I'm rather proud of it and I hope you all enjoy. I'm open to comments and if anyone decides to buy it from iTunes or the like I'd very much appreciate you leaving an honest review of your thoughts.
As I say it's intended as an adventure. It's pretty much a film score .. without the film, but I still think that it's enjoyable away from an visual media .. indeed not having any visual to go by allows your imagination full reign to fill in the blanks. This music was all inspired by my current guild on World or Warcraft 'Vile Thorn', and is basically a roleplay symphony describing the adventures of my own character as he joins the Thorns and helps to save the world ... well why not eh!
In any case I worked very hard on this album and hope you enjoy. Thanks.
