| Hi, and welcome to Music-Web!  Nice ideas and sound. It’s the form that needs working. It’s a little bit too long for just presenting an idea, yet too short for possible hypnotic effects to kick in. You should write more “one-idea”-songs like this one, then jigsaw possible themes together, and hey presto, you have symphonic rock with both energy, build-up, and thematic variation with contrasts…  Nice start, tho! Regards |

| I agree with Thorolf, great ideas you got there. I think a common mistake when creating film (inspired) music is to concentrate too much on one specific idea. Obviously with a bit of expansion this will be a great piece in the making. I'm looking foward to seeing what you do with this. p.s. Welcome to Music-Web |

| Certainly potent stuff. Nice rhythm and the acoustic is so in keeping with the pace. Sort-of reminds me of a particular Hawkwind phase - Spirit of the Age (I think). Agree with the earlier reviewers. Adding: the vocal that seems to come in at approx 1:05...could this be a bit more prominent? Seems about ready as the volume really built up at 0:50 and rebalancing should be possible without losing the power. Nice one, look forward to hearing more - this surely has to be one of those tracks that lasts around 5 mins. Reith |
