My latest venture

Update: Please go check out Brian Gubicza's great interpretation of "The Brave" here :

Please also find the link to his full blog in my links, it's definitely worth a look.

I've always found it very inspiring to listen to soundtracks while I'm drawing. There's a lot of similarities in drawing images and composing music, such as mood, contrast, story telling and of course composition etc. For a long time I've wanted to compose my own orchestral/cinematic music and finally did my own piece this weekend. I had a really great time making it and man, this kinda music demands some heavy computing power!!! You can hear it or download it here:

This is my very first attempt and would of course appreciate your opinion:)

I'm one of these who rarely like a piece of music on a first listen,and especially soundtrack type pieces as I like to see the images that go with them.But on the whole on that first listening I liked what I heard,it made me think that it would be cool with a game cinematic,kind of like Warcraft or something.Anyway cool work.
My musical talent gets only as far as playing Air Guitar.

Hans, you are a multi talented genius haha. This is great, your first ever attempt? wow. Impressed. Yeh I can imagine something really cool to go with it, u should animate something to go along!

Maybe a little more ambience in places would be good, but all in all i think its really well done.

Ken :D

Love that you are branching out to creating music as well as drawing. I can see this as a piece for some great action of some hero type character. Pretty impressive Hans!

Nice! Love the composition ~ it does sound a little bit MIDI-ish here and there, but I think for your first attempt, it was awesome! A tweak here and there would make it perfect for an epic battle of some sort! Are you working on the animation to go with it now? ;)

Hans,
I love soundtracks, and usually I gauge them on the first ten seconds. I tell you, I listened to The Brave up to the end. I would agree to one of the comments in acid planet that it needs just a little bit of reverb to create some "thickness" to the orchestra. But man, overall, it sounds GREAT! I love the melody and your choice of instruments, vocals and effects( (of course, the canons are perfect for El Pacifico!). Very impressive, Hans, especially for a first attempt. I'm actually setting up for an indie film (www.redeemerfilms.com) and maybe you'll be interested. By the way, Ill be in Orlando for two weeks this Christmas. Again, bravo!

I wish I could hear it on my overly-secure machine here at work. If I get my Internet conection up and running at home I'll take a listen. By the way, I linked your blog on my blog. Hope you don't mind!

Hans man, you’re a Jack of all trades. This is really quite an impressive track of music, and it’s on such an epic scale. If I ever make my multibillions dollar epic about the history of the whole entire world, I’ll be sure to give you a ring!
