Such a lovely Classical piece of music another one of my favs at TMA very well thought out and tracked,
Beautiful and melodic! Very good song writing and great samples were used in here! Everything in this track is well done, outstanding!
Another great song by Kevin, using his skills at his best to make one more epical-filled song, doing great in both of my ears:) Starts off with this hall-reverbed piano; melodies couldn't been made by newcomers. Drums are done with feelings, and with majestic strings, flutes and basslines, also good effects makes this tune one of the best resoluted tracks in this fantasy genre. Loads of ideas are put up here like a spin in the air. As I noticed on The Epic, also this tune could have maintained some of the ambience at the very end, but this is really.. REALLY minor flaws that should'nt damage too much of ones opinion. Composed and tracked in quality! Again, the technic are exiting and real nice. Samples are 'filterly' choosed; what I liked most in the song was the break at approx. 4 min, with this great fiddle-sample(?). Some of the samples should have been more powerful, I missed the real sub kind of feeling, but STILL a great song to listen to! You impress me, Kevin, your songs are clearly NOT for beginners, as you said by yourself in The Epic:) .. Beautiful!

---------------------- The Sorceror's Tale; Story of the Lost City -------[<4:57>]------- Copyright (C) 2001, Kevin "Gopher" Chow -----04/04/2001----- "The world we live in is an illusion, woven by liars and traitors. Do not trust them." Wow, this was a great track. At the start, I had written patterns 00-02 and 0A-0C, back in 9-8-2000, but then I stopped there. More recently, I restarted work on this and what you have here is the culmination of those efforts. Usin skills from Epic and Corsair, and with impetus from Azo about chord-progressions, I wove around the old patterns a background and an epilogue to this story. One of the awkward parts was getting from an AbMin back to an FMin - I used a DbMin7 after a day sitting at the piano trying to figure that out :o) -Optimum Listening- A few people I chatted with have said that my stereo-ing of the instruments is a bit exaggerated; Well, for once this isn't my fault - listen to it in FT][ and you'll hear roughly what I made. Stereo is so user-orientated that what you hear is what you've set it up to do. I can't make this compatible in all the players out there w.r.t. stereo. Just keep the separation down and use Surround. A good one to use is Cubic, or XMPlay, both with surround on.
