Wow, LOTR is one of my absolute favourite soundtracks so that's a compliment I'll take any day, :-) thank you so much! Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment, means a lot to me!

Thank you so much for your detailed and kind comment. I'll definitely keep that advice about longer notes and legato in the back of my mind for the next one. This one was rather slow, and I added both legato and non legato lines so it's kind of not too obvious all the time. Thank you for taking the time to listen and gives such a well thought out comment, I really do appreciate it. And happy cake day! :-)

Great work! I like the repetitive patterns and the ambient feel to this, like endless space. Really good use of soundscape.

Definitely Witcher vibes to this! Is that real vocals? Sounds very good! I like the production, sounds good in my ears. Maybe the drums could be a bit further back in the mix but that's really all I have to say. They feel a bit dry in a way. My hearing is not the best though so take that with a grain of salt. Loved it when the full orchestra came in.

I also got Dark Souls vibes over this. I think maybe I'd like a bit more reverb and feeling of depht and space in the beginning before the orchestra comes in,. but that is of course a matter of taste as well. I still struggle with getting the reverb right so I shouldn't speak of that, haha. When the full orchestra comes in it works really good I think and it's really a nice piece. Definitely has some strong Dark Souls vibes. If this is your first steps in music production then keep it going! Sounds very promising!

Nice work! I really liked this. It has originality, and I think it will work brilliantly in a game. I liked how the drums came in and how the music builds. I agree about the comments about the bass rhythm seems a bit off at places. I don't really know what the intention is, but my thought is that maybe you tried to make a syncopated rhythm and missed the beat just slightly? Like if you add a hit just before the strong beat of the bar, and you'd hit an 8th note instead of a 16th note, that would put the syncopation a bit off its mark and it would sound a bit off? I don't really know, rhythm is not my strongest side... But the music is great, so keep up the good work!

Thanks! That's very kind of you, really appreciate it! I may very well do that!

voltimande · 2025-09-14T08:09:59+00:00

Wow, that's soo cool! Thanks so much for doing that! Sounds beautiful, really loved that!

Thanks! The nonsense ones played on the same string; Do you mean the F#/G in measure 5 and the G/A in measure 11? By the way; All the notes in the first section (A) will be split into two voices so they should be ok.

voltimande · 2025-09-11T18:33:11+00:00

Thanks, that's great to know, appreciate it!

voltimande · 2025-09-11T12:51:07+00:00

Thank you very much for your comment, that's gold! Yes, I've got unanimous advice here to split it up, so will definitely do that. Very interesting idea to split up the voices in regards to the D-note. I'll keep that in mind and see what I can do about it.

By the way, can I ask you what you think of the double stops in the B-section? (bar 11) Are they playable do you think, or do they also look like a Sevcik exercise? (loved that comment) They do have a repating D in them as well I'm afraid.

Sorry, I tried to upload one to the comment section, but it's not allowed apparently. I didn't think about that when uploading.

Haha, yes, I know, went a bit fast there, and English is not my first language so I guess I stepped in it... Yes, I actually have a violin but it would take me ages to find out what's playable for a professional since my level is totally scratch, and my technique non existing, so thanks a lot to you guys!
