Another unfinished tracker composition I found on my old harddrive from some years ago. It sounds quite good to me, allthough the monosampled instruments and 56Kbit/s encoding make for a pretty restricted sound.

I think this was one of the first full symphonic metal songs I tried to write with a tracker (full as in a more complete orchestra than before; there's even a choir in this piece).
I noticed whilst hearing it for the first time in two or so years that the tempo is a bit delayed on the timpani parts in the beginning... I don't remember whatever I thought with those...

Anyhow, feedback is welcome

i think this one is trying to do too much, rudolpho. there are pieces that don't fit with eachother. namely, the asian-sounding instruments introduced at ~ 1:36 (the lute-ish plucking, the flute, and the flute "solo" ~ 2:40) clash with the intro choir, which is decent, followed by the power metal. so, it's really 2 separate pieces to me.

as always, thanks for sharing. i enjoy hearing your work

I agree, the verse didn't fit in to well with the rest, but you could think of the first part as an introduction, or perhaps rather an overture.
The "lute" was the best electric guitar sound I could find at the time, and the "flute" is actually a horn, I think. I agree that the horn part doesn't quite fit in there and also that the following part is a tad too big of a transistion.

As always (), thanks for the comment.
