Ancient Voices - Wouldn't be made without these people.

I guess I've got to thank @samulis for being a huge inspiration for this track. His theoretical knowledge and crave for authentic and diverse orchestration has moved me in more ways than one. Also a thank you to @Anarkat for knowing to never give up with your passions and just make what you "feel" is right. @Step for being a generally nice guy, offering me advice over the years about various musical subjects and @etherealwinds for inspiring me to create a vocal composition, maybe someday we can collaborate together on a track.

I've faltered and fallen over the years, in terms of confidence in my musi. Whether I had it in my all this time, but recently I decided to just let that all go, the doubts and hopes for success, and just create. What I always wanted to do, is just to compose, whatever comes to my mind, to let go and not think about what is right or wrong, but what just feels right. I've got to say, I've lost track with what this composition is supposedt to represent, it might seem all over the place, and might not even sound eastern at all but it was just an experiment and I enjoyed it.


Next two compositions I really want to focus on percussive elements and rhythm. Perhaps something like Morocco by @Step who did a splendid job of focusing on the well known scales in the Eastern regions and their preferred instruments, not to mention how catchy the track itself was.

The second track on my mind was an orchestral drum & bass track. Something I've always wanted to compose, at least in some manageable manner, it might be tough, I might need to learn electronic music compression, and all sorts of other stuff, and how to mix electronic with orchestral instruments but it will be a fun experiemtn, one that I want to experience. That's the reason I've acquired Nexus 2 and some drum & bass samples and vocal shots.

Hope you're having a wonderful day. :D
