Dagger in the dark (fermusdagger.xm)

This tune was made for an Lord of the rings compo...Orchestral/Ambient Big drums and cliche' melodies in this tune too.

--------------------------------------------------
Think it ended up in 6th place if im not wrong..
i worked alot on getting the samples sounding good more then working on the whole song.

In the beginning a quiet, mysterious piano leads us into the climate of a dangerous event that's going to take place... The piano is fading in, some choirs enter, and then a horn melody starts. It is later repeated in a wonderful manner, I should say solemn and lofty. Then it is quite and mysterious again. A synth instrument plays another great melody (good use of pitch bend here!) Later we have a louder and more menacing part, with horns, drums and everything! This tune is just great. It has everything: quite, mysterious parts and powerful horn melodies! But the best thing about it is that it builds a wonderful atmosphere, stimulates imagination and catches the listener. Very interesting piece, very well made, both musically and technically. It would be very suitable for a fantasy RPG game (although the synth instruments would be rather inappropriate for a medieval theme :) ). They say music is responsible for 90% of the atmosphere - this tune would undoubtedly do its job! This song is truly enjoyable thanks to very good work with volumes, portamentos, and good quality samples as well. Panning is also used with experience, without any exaggeration. There are 53 patterns, each of them is different and the composer absolutely didn't overuse copy/paste! Surely, there's been fair amount of work put in it, as well as artistry. Great piece.

This song came in 6th place
here is the comments by Likuid

Dagger in the Dark / Fermus.
Rating 80:

-------------------------------------------------
This song is technically perfect,
tracker skill is so high.
It can be used on any Original Sound Track,
 the sound is a high quality one.
Whole theme is exceptional.
Samples are perfect, overcoat the drums.
I wonder about the size of the samples
Choir voices are incredible too,
the melodies can impress you.
It sounds like some kind of death, an epic death.
A funeral for a friend. Maybe Gandalf?
