[The Entrance of Heroes]

I really like it! Great variation and instrumentation. Personally I find it very difficult to write this sort of uplifting music. Any tips? :D Every time I try to write something that doesn't sound epic / sad it ends up being cheesy as hell...

CloakedSoup responds:

I'd recommend trying to find something with a similar mood and trying to write something that has that kind of atmosphere. You may also wish to take notes on anything that is going on musically and/or do a transcription to note the orchestration, composition techniques, arrangement, etc.

[Battle Theme]

Nicely done! Love the brass clusters. :)

[The Hero's way]

Very nice work! Love the chord progression and the piano work. Damn I should start using pianos in my songs as well xD

[Life of a Samurai]

I think it's great! Love the flute melody and the overall feeling of the song. I think the loud parts could be a bit more "huge" if you know what I mean. :) Great job!

SokolMusic responds:

Thanks! I do indeed know what you mean by "Huge". I'm still learning the dynamics of programming, orchestration, and so forth, plus I'm saving up to buy better virtual instruments so I can use better, more "epic" style sounds.

I greatly appreciate the feedback, and I do take it seriously. Thanks for listening!

[Don't Stop Me Now Remix]

I like it, but I think the melody could be a bit clearer sometimes. It's mostly chords and arpeggios. (not that that's a bad thing)

HJfod responds:

That's because I made this with the intention of singing over it, so I never made any melodies for it :P

[F-777 - 1up [2017]]

Love it! Verry Uplifting. I think I go for the same, as you did: I like everything. :D

[-Timeless V2-]

This is really cool! The Drums, the chords, the melody. Just perfect. Awesome job man!

AlphaStormMusic responds:

Thank You:)
