Well, believe it or not - this is a top 10 song.=)Don't let the scores scare you this time because the song is actually good.It is composed by a Finnish guy called Yrde and he is pretty new here in TMA. So lets have a look what this guy has managed to upload here... The song starts with really nice strings. They sound very different than usual, ethereal and somehow even...well, old? And in the background there is this nice sound that reminds me of a campfire on a winternight. Or then it is ment to sound like old vinyl.=) Speed is slow and maybe this sounds like those recordings that are ment to relax the listeners.=)Then the song gets in some new samples like bows and flute. The song sounds very good over here and if you close your eyes it is almost certain thing that you'll see some beautiful things that you're imagination will create with this music... But then, the song just ends and only 2.22 has passed. Reasons why this song gets only 8.0 are : It is too short, I would love to hear it more. This is very simple song overall and actually it is also a bit repetitive. The song won't get boring with this lenght even if you listen it few times in a row,but the fact is that there really ain't that much of variation. But anyway, despite those things this is a very beautiful song and it would get higher scores if it was longer and it would keep the lovely athmosphere. Very nice job Yrde.=) Umm, well there isn't so much to mention here in technical side. Samples were 16-bit and sounded very good. With some other samples this song would sound so much "thinner" and it would loose a big deal of its ethereal mood. Textures were nice, but I really missed some more variation. Use of effects was minor thing in this piece,but well, this song really doesn't need any effects so it is quite good that artist hasn't started to put in any slides or vibras. It is best just the way it already is.=)
