I must apology for my previous comment, I wasn't playing it on the right tracker (MilkyTracker does a terrible job at playing module in the it format). Really good tracking.
Boy oh boy I sure hope admin doesn't get mad at me for not sticking to my directory but this one had to be reviewed. Great track! Great use of the strings. Superb drum sequences throughout the song. I like the distinct seperation between an intro, the main body of the song, and the ending. Exciting and spell binding! Great use of samples. Quite well laid out. Not too much to complain about. Some lack of imagination when using the horn sample (was kind of repetative) but it didn't take away from the shear beauty of the track. It's my understanding it made it to the top ten.
Internal Texts *
Hidden Forest ...and so the mage disappeared into the woods, and he ventured much deeper into the darkness than any human being had ever dared. He knew that he would never again go back into the town, for the town had outcast him. Relying on his trained senses and his staff and protected by his leathery cloak, he entered a realm outside time itself, hidden well from the eyes of men, where only fairies and nature's beasts could join him. So he thought. He wasn't aware though that the witchhunter had been following him for many days. Driven by his unmatched stubbornness this man had succeeded in uncovering the carefully hidden trail of the mage. With a grim feeling of triumph in his blind heart, he made his black horse run faster and clenched his fist around his mace. This time the mage would not get away... The battle lasted endless minutes. The two adversaries stood against each other, though none was likely to win the fight. Their strengths were equal and yet different. Eventually, the mage lost control over the spells he had spoken. He and the witchhunter were transported through time back into reality and they both fell unconcious. By dawn, the hunter awoke and realized that the magician was gone. And this time, he had made sure he wouldn't leave any trail. There's not much I can say about this one. I don't know if it is a good thing to release this file, since it sounds much the same as "Senses". 17/3/99:I just noticed that the drumtrack resembles the one of "A Knight's Tale" too much. That's the dilemma of wanting to create something new which turns out to be just "another track". A few things have gone to pieces the last days, in many ways. Part One: OrdNum 001-034 Hidden Forest Part Two: OrdNum 035-069 Witchhunter theme Part Three: OrdNum 070-079 Hidden Forest (dc) IMHO you don't need to see it as a song divided into parts. I always look at it as if it were ONE theme, since for a long time I could not decide whether to write a little fantasy mini-story as context or not. by Gargoyle 1999 For all my friends Greetings to: Warder, Awesome, Jogeir Liljedahl, Purple Motion, Lizardking, Zaba, Pulse, Skaven, and everybody else out there. Seems that you need either much RAM or a fast machine to listen to this tune without those unnerving playback speed delays... :-( This song can be downloaded from the TuneStore. Its current URL is http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Stadium/1822 but I am considering a server change... Anyhow, I will still keep the URL for some time, so don't worry about your bookmarks.

Absolutely amazing. This piece held my interest the full 10 minutes. Amazing little story, too. Great use of all the samples, although they are somewhat lo-fi. This has to be in my all-time musical favorites. Bravo!!!
