*********************************************************************** * LORE-LANDS * * VISIONS OF THE PAST * * ------------------- * * Composed by Sphenx (C) 2023 * * Provided under CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0 * *********************************************************************** SONG INFO: Creation Date : December 2021* (or 1995) Current Version : v1.00 Running Time : 5:00 min Active Channels : 48 Virtual Channels : 223 Samples : 94 Instruments : 90 Patterns : 82 Playback : XMPlay / OpenMPT - Usage of Stereo Samples and Filters ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ LORELANDS - VISIONS OF THE PAST I built this one using old materials from unreleased / unfinished musics I started long ago. As an attempt to make them a worthy module, I merged different parts from my past picking 2 old modules nicknamed "Purple Song" and "Sad Angel". "Purple Song" was a 4 Amiga MED song started around 1995 and "Sad Angel", from 2005, was an attempt to make another "Angel" song after "An Angel Is Flying Over The Clouds" that I made in 2000. If you want to know, orders 00 to 12 come from "Sad Angel", orders 14 to 31 come from "Purple Song". The remaining ones from 33 till the end are the new ones. Of course, there was a lot of rework and enhancements through many arrangements and samples/instruments preparation. I also tried to get some acceptable dynamics to make music more alive, more emotional. I did not want to develop too much this module for keeping a "small" play length and make a "fast" release. But I can't help adding things here and there, arranging, modifying and feeling editing never ends ... At some point I have to let it go and finish what I already got. I spent the last weeks polishing arrangements and samples. Actually, I planned to switch to MPTM for more 16-bit stereo samples but it did not change that much of the overall sounding to my hears. Maybe because I already work with multiple pairs of dual channels L-R as I am used to do. Perhaps next time I'll try working mono using stereo samples ... We'll see. So in the end, I've kept the form of standard IT. Considering I took this work back in december 2021 ... 2 years later for some 5 minutes of music is not bad for that Sphenx's scale of time ! I hope you'll appreciate it ! ___________________________________________________________________________ email : gb_sphenx_hotmail.com ___________________________________________________________________________ Visions of the Past CC-BY-NC-SA 4.0, (C) 2023 - Sphenx ___________________________________________________________________________

Another good module, complete with Sphenx's usual level of detail, and a nicely large synthetic orchestral performance. I particularly enjoy the the guitar part at around 2:26, it could really work as a battle theme. I like the tune overall, but I feel like some of the transitions between the different themes could've been better, as they feel a bit jarring in places, particularly the transition at 4:26.
