I really like the atmosphere, it’s dark and unsettling in a really effective way. The choirs stand out a lot, and the track has a strong cinematic quality with a lot of tension :)
There originally used to be a heavy metal part but i thought it was too much. I like this melody more. plus it was heavily inspired by "Death Stranding 2 Tommorrow fight".
Opening - great sense of space, very nicely mixed, clean, bassy but not too much.
I feel like as others mentioned, there isn't a very strong melody here, but it certainly had a lot of moments where one could have come in!
Love your mixing. Excellent work!
Have to agree with Deádric336 on the melody. For me the melody part did not really feel like a proper melody as it just worked as part of the harmony with held notes for the duration of the chords. I would've liked to have more melodic movement on it to give it a shape and rhythm to really make it melodic and memorable,
But other than that, really nice vibe, almost feels like a souls like game boss fight with the choir and organ and the dramatic chord stabs.
Good work!
There doesn't seem to be a streamable version of this at the moment.
Dramatic, energetic and punchy, you sure nailed the atmosphere and sounds, must be a powerful dagger. Melody wise, I wasn't really sure whether what I think was the melody, actually was the melody or just a part of the atmosphere. While simplicity is a good thing, it doesn't stick out as a melody personally.
This dagger flies directly into the enemy and burns them from the inside out with argent energy.
Very Impressive. BTW, What Did You Use For The Ambiance At The Beginning? I Love how unsettling it is! Also, did you use any of Keepforest's Virtual Instruments? The pulses sound very similar. Way to go! You seem to have a very high place on the leaderboard, once everything is voted on.
It's just a very extremely slowed down samples of an industrial machine. But yes, i did use some of their pulses.
Very Interesting! I use Devastator Breakout Warzone Or Something Like That...
If you want to talk about production, then message me on discord. Alyctro#1682
I guess we could do something like that. I enjoy talking to new people!
