Thor's Hammer - Composed with Metropolis Ark 3
มุมมอง 1032 หลายเดือนก่อน
Hi, thanks for watching! This composition was made using mostly the Metropolis Ark 3 sample library from Orchestral Tools. The idea was to write an action-themed track in an octatonic scale, with no repeating sections, and using only a single sample library as much as possible. (There are a small number of elements from different libraries, but around 80-90% comes from MA3). Images courtesy of ...

Hi everyone, this is a short piece I composed in honour of J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings series. The piece describes a pair of unwary travellers who venture into Shelob's caves, unaware of what awaits them inside... The first half of the composition tries to evoke the sinister atmosphere of the caves, and the second half describes the pair being chased through the tunnels. Do the traveller...

    This is awesome. I love your creativity with the Phrygian scale, it actually inspires me. I've always just used it for Spanish-flavored music or to evoke something of that nature experimentally, but this opens a whole new door for me. The fact you inspired me to explore Phrygian beyond the typical "a touch of Spain" flavor means so much to me as a musician.
