[Tennis Raquet]

I really like the guitar! The piece sounds so natural (non virtual) with it. The piece is relaxing too. Keep up your work!

HowardWimshurst responds:

Thanks very much!

[Essence of Evil]

Oh man!! It sounds so dark and evil especially from 0:30 to 0:52! It's a really good piece in my opinion. It sound epic throughout the middle due to the epic percussion and the bass runs in the background. You're really good in making 'evil' music. It is so refreshing to here such music, if the only epic music you here comes from hollywood (especially Hans Zimmer and his gang, although I like Hans Zimmer).

Keep up your work!

[The Battle Starts]

It really sounds epic. It's such a shame that it isn't performed by a real orchestra!! The harmonics are quite interesting too. Keep up your great work! can I ask, which sound libraries you've used for this piece? The staccatos sounded quite 'natural'.

Have a nice day!

[Instinct]

That's a really epic piece! What sound libraries did you use? The piece sounds so professional!!!
Keep up your work and have a nice day!

Mattashi responds:

Thanks a lot Christoko :) I used Heavyocity Damage, AEON Rhythmic and Cinematic Guitars for percussion. EWQL Symphonic Orchestra+Choirs and Eduardo Tarilonte (Mystica)

[Blue Stalactite]

You got it right!!!
If you close your eyes it really feels like you are inside of a cave and the stalactites are reflecting the light coming from the sparkling crystals.

Keep up your work!!! :D

Thank you =)

[Swift Roe Deer]

Hey!

It's indeed a nice piece. I would let the violins play the staccato pattern instead of the piano, because that allows you to play a melody with the piano and the violins instead. After all it is a very uplifting and kinda motivating piece. If you don't mind I would like to cover it :D
I will put a link to your channel if I'm allows to do a cover.

Keep up your work :D

MrNightVarga responds:

Hiya, yeah, in hindsight, that sounds like a pretty good idea, however at the time I focused on the piano, meaning I first wrote the piano part from start to finish and then started adding other instruments.

By all means ,have fun with it =)

Cheers

[Clicking Eastward]

I really like your theme and the diversity!!
Unfortunately the virtual instruments don't sound very well :/
Do you play jazz? I would like tolearn more about it.
Could you teach me something? That would be nice!!

Keep up your jazzy work :D

MrNightVarga responds:

Thank you =) I don't play jazz, I have fun experimenting with different genres, I don't even listen to jazz.

But if you have a question about anything, feel free to PM me.

[Red Ray]

I really like your theme and that mix of These Synthesizers with orchestral instruments. The harmony is somewhat strange in a good way, because you don't hear These chord progressions that often. These give it that interesting touch.
Which program or virtual instruments did you use for this composition, because it sounds like a professional recording :D

Keep up your work :)
