This is the best joyful-new age track I've ever listened! Great melody of acoustic guitar, flute, and strings, choir... Wonderful climate!
Very thanks guys for this beautiful song! :)
The sound of this song is definitely a good example of what today's music should be. The overall artistic value of this song is great. It's based on a guitar picking main theme, very well sequenced, some background armonic line instruments (low strings), and a simple rithm line. There is a flute thats counterpunts the guitar, and takes the main line in the middle part of the song. The minor chord progression is raffinate, and throug minor, is still happy feeling. After a short bridge it becomes major, and the break is like a sunshine strike in a sad forest. Great! The only bad note is about the ending, that could have been better implemented; it's not for the 3d chord 4rt to major ("flourishing") ending, that is often used in new age and contemporary music, but for the brisk stop to the song, that is in contrast with the mild passages of the rest of the melody. The song have been greatly rehandled till the TWO authors found it perfect. We can share their point of view: instruments are mixing well, with a excellent choiche of volume slides. Flutes and guitar passages are gracefully glissed and stretched. Very nice the intro sequence, with a guitar being accorded.

Forrest Hymn Composed And Arranged By Spin Dizzy & Warder Duration: 3.46 Finished: 3.2.99 ---- I, Spin Dizzy, began to work on this song sometime during the end of Autumn 1998 when I asked my good friend Scorpik if I could have permission to use his guitar and flute sounds in one of my own projects. The permission was granted and I started to compose some of the guitar sequences used in this song. After a while though, i ran out of ideas and inspiration for it. Meanwhile I came in contact with Warder, who I thought was a very talented musician. Therefor I asked him if he were interested in doing a collaboration with me, namely Forrest Hymn. Though there was a slight problem with our collaboration since I compose using FastTracker and Warder uses ImpulseTracker. But it worked out okay at the end I think. The tune is saved in ImpulseTracker format because of some instrument settings, functions etc. Since then we have worked on it from time to time and now, 5 months after I started to compose it, it's finally finished. A big thank you to Adam Skorupa, Scorpik, who let me use his great forrest sounds. All other instruments by Warder. -Spin Dizzy joeraase_online.no http://surf.to/spindizzy ---- When Spindizzy first asked me to work with him I was pretty excited since this was my first international co-op. The first version he sent me included a beautiful atmospherical guitar picking pattern that had a fairly standard though beautiful chord progression. To complement that part I wrote a less straight part with a slowly building tension that is used twice in the song, first time leading into Spinny's main theme as a calm interlude, next time the tension gets released with an outburst of energy as the guitar picks up speed. Spindizzy wrote some cool flute leads and made those parts longer. In the end, I feel I couldn't uncover the full potential this song had, but we have to accept that composition is always a chaotic process, much more so when there are two independant people working on it. However, there are a lot of captivating moments and good ideas in this tune. I also adjusted all chords to wide voicing (alto voice transposed an octave down) to make the sound softer and better. -Warder warder_dlc.fi http://www.dlc.fi/~warder
