This song's an interesting mix of orchestral and metal. The first thing that really stood out to me was the first metal section; it is in 3/4 time, which isn't exactly "common" with metal music. I also like the strings and choirs; they sound great, for the most part. There seems to be a decent amount of panning in the tune, though some things are panned back and forth a bit too much (drums especially - drums tend to sound best when left in one spot, either centered or slightly off center). The opening is a nice part, too; an almost ambient sound that sets up a great visual in my mind, inspired by the title. I get the feeling of some sorcery, trying to summon things up from the ground.. pretty effective. The samples seem to be decent, perhaps could be better, but aren't really bad. The only other thing is that in some places, a voice/instrument seems to be fairly static; varying the volume, or fading it in and back out again, would help this (for example, instrument 7 in ptrns 16-20, and other places). Technically, the tune looks pretty good. The tracking is good, though there could be more dynamics used in places. There's a pretty good understanding of the effects and their use, and for the most part, things seem to work well for the tracking. The samples all sound good, and many of the loop points are chosen quite well; though some need a bit of work (esp. samples 55 and 56). Many of the volume envelopes look pretty good, some could be optimized better perhaps. Overall, this is a good tune with average and above average samples, some really creative sections, and a great atmosphere.
