Hi, VI!
This is trailer music, so getting that out there at the start ;D
This track starts somewhat dark and dramatic, and concludes with a more triumphant feeling backend. This is my third cinematic trailer track, so I'm still exploring what trailer music is and how to properly make it. I...
This is probably the least badass thing I ever did... but it was so fun to do.

Thanks for your answers!

Hi, everyone! Would love to hear some feedback. This was my first attempt at this sort of genre. The whole "film" music thing is pretty new to me. For anyone curious, I used a lot of various libraries, but definitely heavy on 8Dio, Spitfire, and a bit of Heavyocity. Thanks!
Hey everyone,
I had some spare time in-between projects so I looked for some trailers or short videos that I could re-score. I came across this 4 minute cinematic for the game World of Warcraft and noticed that it didn't have dialogue (just voice-over) so without hearing the music, sfx, or...
Hi all,
just getting into (at least for me) more complex percussion programming.
I'm far from being good at that, though I'm trying to get better at percussion programming without relying on libraries like Damage or Action Strikes; but to program all by myself.
Would like to here some critique...
I want to ask some of the pros here or advanced composers, what do you think of this small piece I composed.
I know its really difficult to judge a piece of music composed by orchestral instruments since its very subjective. specially when accounting how deep and diverse the psychological...
