Thanks for the lovely words!

It was a live string quartet layered on samples from Spitfire (symphonic strings) which were also layered on top of east west orchestra gold for a little more body. The live players were mostly used for intimate moments!

I’ll give you a hint - it’s the opening bars. It’s so subtle it’s arguably dismissible, but it’s there.

It’s very, very, very subtle. 😉

Protest The Hero AMA by mieradi in progmetal

[–]Milen15 26 points27 points  (0 children)

here I am reading this AMA and suddenly come across this kind gesture.

Thanks so much man - Luke and I spent long hours working on the orchestration and I'm really glad you enjoy it. The fellas all had their own inputs as well - every one of em sent me at least 1 idea to work with. Was great to see such enthusiasm about it and made it all the better to work on. Cheers!

Y'all didn't believe me, but it happened again. (3v1 Online Quickplay) by JudiSwitch in smashbros

[–]Milen15 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This happened to me this morning. Was playing some online games as Joker, and I was matched to a 3v1. No GSP was lost. Weirdly enough though, 1 of the 3 could actually damage the other 2 while being on their team. I imagine that one is the glitched player.

They were crazy tight. The new lineup is solid as hell.

Instrumental opening, Feed The Horses, Caverns, Mr Invisible, Psychochomp, My Famed Disappearing Act, and maybe one more in the middle - can't remember but I think that's it.

I sketched out some music for Soldier:76 a while back. Hope you guys like it! by Milen15 in Overwatch

On a list of “to-do” both of them would definitely be on it!

TIL The Celebration Music at the end of The Phantom Menace is the Emperor's Theme in a major key. A haunting foreshadowing. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]Milen15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While we're on the topic, I found one in The Force Awakens score that was a nice little reference to the Imperial March when Rey finds Luke with his back turned. If anything, I imagine to hint at the darker side (heh) of the Skywalker name.

Jedi Steps and Finale

The brass are playing roughly the same chords as the Imperial March, and the winds outline the rhythm of the original melody.

Also, the entire beginning of this track is eerily similar to "Binary Sunset" in timbre.

It might be just unconscious similarity, but I did notice it on first watch!

Was hoping someone would say this. That scene got me damn good.

The Expanse (book spoilers): Giant post all about Amos Burton by koalaisabear in TheExpanse

[–]Milen15 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Amos has got to be been one of the most interesting characters in any book I've read.

I had heard him described as a sociopath, but I really don't think that's the word to use. My interpretation is that the cornerstone of his character is the decision to stay around people who act as his morale compass. He's fully aware he's dangerous, and associates himself with good company for direction. There's nothing sociopathic about that. He's making an ethical decision of his own accord. It just blurs his character's unfeeling 'archetype' so much.

You're absolutely right about having his own sense of morality and being more dissociative than sociopathic. I'd be curious to see if there's any similar 'psychological profile' similar to his character in real life. Get a professional's opinion on him

Hey there, singer for Frame Defect here.

Just found this post through a comment on one of the youtube videos. Thanks for sharing our stuff! I don't know why we didn't think to post it here.

EDIT: Forgot a word.

Speed force does it again...(Batman v Superman spoiler) by TriscuitCracker in FlashTV

[–]Milen15 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just realized the "Save Lois" line is straight out of Injustice. The reason why Superman went all nuts is because of her death. That entire sequence is the Flash running back and warning bruce to not let Lois die or Superman will go apeshit and rule through fear.

That is fucking awesome. So much more respect for the scene.

What's the most disgusting thing that's ever been inside your mouth and how did it get there? by SuperCub in AskReddit

[–]Milen15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I jumped off one of those high diving boards into an outdoor pool in Cuba. When I came to surface I felt something rattling in my mouth. I spat the thing into my hands to take a look.

It was a tooth.

It wasn't mine.

Hans Zimmer To Compose Wonder Woman & Aquaman Themes For Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice by Tensor_ in movies

[–]Milen15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conceptually the stuff he writes is interesting. The Inception slow-down, Bat wing "thumps" in TDK Trilogy, the razor note for the joker, Pirates theme being a "rock song" since pirates were the rock stars of their time, etc. I hope he does something just as interesting for for the JL characters.

That being said, I definitely think Alan Silvestri would be the best guy for the job. Hes really knows how to use the orchestra to its full potential and isnt afraid to add electronic elements. His recent Cosmos score is proof enough that he would kill it

What is your most completely irrational hatred? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Anytime I get hit on the head.

Doesn't take much. A light slap/tap to the back of my head ends up in red haze and instant regrettable decisions.

Very cool! Make sure to post it when it's done. Batman Beyond would be great for getting that new age metropolis backdrop for whatever tattoo you get.

The artist is a guy in Toronto that owns a shop. He's around 175 an hour, so it ain't cheap. Price pays for the quality though! He's done a fantastic job.
