I could call it a classical tune, but the drums that play for some time here made me a little hesitant. :) Well, if we forget about the drums (which sound a little odd here) this is ordinary orchestral music with nice, clean ensemble strings and some other instruments (like for example piano). This tune is not very exciting for extrovert people I guess :). If you expect to hear some spectacular effects or amazing I-don't-know-what, you may be not interested. But if you'd like to listen to some mature (I'll take the risk to call it this way ;) ), relaxing and emotional music, this song is good for you. I myself like it very much. Without any special effects (although not without tracker effects at all!) In the song info the artist lists the parts of the song. Each of them goes with a certain kind of feeling. That is nice, but as for the last part ("Through the river of hope") - for me it didn't really sound like something about hope... Well, from the very beginning to the end the song is pretty sad. But it's nice. I think it's very good when you want to calm down or just relax. This piece sounds really good, without any disturbing flaws. On the technical side everything was made thoroughly and you can just listen without worrying that something doesn't sound right. That's important especially for this kind of music. Major part of the samples are 16 bit and that makes the song so clean and pure!
