Farewell Minos. Wrote an analysis of this piece as tribute: Cast In Stone was created for Season 6 the Marble Rally, and I enjoy it firstly because it was written in the odd time signature of 7/4. This gives the music a sense of uncertainty, but also intensity. A recurring theme is presented in the beginning that slowly increases in volume and builds the music as a whole. Then, at 0:23, voices are added that provide a subtle yet clear harmonic passage. The percussion (mainly timpani) and brass also provide a driving pulse to keep the momentum of the music moving forward. At 1:08, a counter-melody is produced by a French Horn and implements something new the keep the piece fresh. 1:54 gives the melodic line mainly to the strings with a rushing semi-quaver motif, still with lower brass keeping the pulse of the odd time signature. The role of voice changes to holding an F5 for 3 bars which then progresses to a G5. The music then ends potently with a D natural minor scale beginning on G (subdominant note). This takes place vibrantly on a xylophone; ascending while increasing in dynamic volume up to the D to finish. This gives attention to the winner of the race grabbing the gold medal. For all these reasons, I believe Cast In Stone by Minos Fylaktos is one of my favourite contemporary compositions to date.
Yo chill its just a smr song (the 4th best btw after downfall, sands of time and divine marbles) (by the way thank you so much minos for these smr music if you read this❤)
Banger of a track. It suited race 7 and 8 quite nicely. That aside, I was curious what the track used in race 10 is? It doesn't seem to be on the channel, so I assume it might not be made for JMR? (even though it sounds very much like JMR, so it was a great pick)

I absolutely LOVE odd time signatures. The use of 7/4 is amazing!
Love all the music you do for JMR!
W Track
Amazingly composed as usual, thank you Minos!
