The intro in this song is one of the best orchestral intros I've heard in a mod and it sounds very proffessional all the way. Nice melodies and a well thought out chordprogression make you settle in for a treat. Unfortunately, somewhere in the middle the song gets stuck in some kind of deadlock and don't progress from there. You want something to happen, to make you jump up and say: "Wow! That was something new!" but it never comes. But it is still one of the best orchestral songs out now. Yepp, most effects fit and are placed at the right places. Technically this song has everything which is needed in a song of this magnitude. There are a few things which could have been made better though. An echoeffect is placed rather awkwardly in the song and the instrument sounds a bit funny at places because of this for example. Samplequality is good, nothing to complain about.

Full Title: "Tales from the age of Kingdoms" composed and arranged by MAD GOD finished: 12-12-99 released: 03.01.1900 I composed this for all the humans that like legends and tales of kings. It leads you back in time to the great kingdoms, their rise and fall. It tells you the stories of beaten dragons and mighty wizards. Of honored knights and deadly diabolic evil. Imagine and you WILL feel the power, that really rules the world ... a power called phantasy... Sorry for that stuff I wrote above. But I was so inspired by the LORD OF THE RINGS, that I was forced to write and compose what U look at and listen to, now. See ya soon... ...back for tracking -MAD GOD Feel free to distribute this file as long, as you give me the credits!!! email: jan.streuff_okay.net greetz to: -all the guys at TMA -The M. -Nightbeat (U are great!) and to all the ones I am to bored to write some to...

Although it takes a little time to get into the swing of it, this orchestral/newage fantasy pieces is very good, some great progressions and transitions between the parts. Some of the instruments are played quite realistically. I really liked the small part featuring the Sarang, shame it was not longer as it sounded great. Recommended
