This is such a lovely piece of Classical music at it's best some thing to unwind with at the end of the day ..

The title of this orchestral/fantasy music says everything. It's really an epic piece of music with great feelings, dynamics and song writing. Why not 10 points for this? Awesome music - just ... Gopher!

In the very beginning, the typical influxity of piano and strings vibes with one another with this epic feeling. A fantasy-tune, vivacious melodies of great progressive in the sake of powerful themes. A full account of melodies, chords, percussions and ambient background-feelings. Everything is nicely ordered, limpid notes are almost perfectly hitting each other in full lineal at the end. Breaks are made with calm, cheesy melodies and unique background. Much great, and talented music. But the end is somehow missing it's calm feeling, even if the strings make a nice accomplished touch. I liked the song very much. Technically, there are nothing specially you can put your finger on. Some samples should have been more luxurious, but overally the samples are well. As told before, the end could've been treated better. Either, the composer could make the powerful feeling to last through out the song, or he could maintain the calm-ness to a really 'romantic' ending (as I say it). Awesome tune: great ideas, maybe not the most original, but well built song!

This tune was
originally intended to
be a (winning?) entry
in the Merregnon
Compo, Nov 2000.
As you can see,
development was
severely protracted,
resulting in this tune
which took epic
perseverence to
write.
Perhaps not my best
style or work, I feel
that this has fallen
somewhat short of
what I hoped, but
this maybe due to
my tracking career
(All 3 years and 12
measly releases) being
in its twilight.

I hope to release at
least another tune of
some form or other
I hang up my mouse,
but then; tracking
is an endless voyage,
every author striving
to better themselves
and others, to hell
with inspiration.

I hope you enjoy this
tune in the same way
that I found it VERY
hard to write it -most
definitely not
a style for the
beginner!

Thanks again to all
you trackers and
trance-heads on TiS,
I couldn't have done
this without you.

eternities" - Stephen

Last Words:

"Hopefully in the
(near?) future I can
write a better, fuller
track than this
protracted job.
I'll be returning to
more carefree tracking
for a while, maybe,
before coming back
to this wonderful
genre. Then again I
might dive right in.
Time will tell.
Don't take this as
my last word - far
from it. Maybe when
IT3 comes out, I can
really kick some major
arse..."
