This song is not in a battle


I usually just work with keyboards and a computer but picking up the old plastic axe lead to this. Same but different...

Does this song not follow the Rules? Please Report Abuse

The intro was very good until the ominous wind stuff cut out randomly. You should have it drag on a bit longer and kind of stay with the music for the most part in the background.

Dang sweeet!!!! thats what i said when i first heard the guitar come in.
Cool tune all around man! Great work on the guitar - it reminds me of David Gilmour.

I like how you combine all of these synth effects to fit perfectly with the guitar and everything.
lol keyboard effects remind me of rick wright.
Missing vocals...
Great work!

Great sound. Nice listen

As it is would be great for a Movie of some discription. WESTERN is the obvious.

Lovely melodies at the half-way interval.

This is great songwriting. Well Done.

I have to say the wind did work for me.. You seem to have found the switch off of levels quite well on the transition.(Im guessing some of the guys above didn't get it). The orchestration reminds me a bit of Chip Davis with the horns moving the piece to a more sophisticated and happier mood... The western feel gives the track the proper theme for the title.. The electronica layers work quite well.. Nice half time beat break down(unexpected)... Your quite good at this huh?Im Impressed,nice work!

Wow loving the tune, very movie sountrack'ish.
I love the melodies and the progression, my only complaint is that it sounds a bit sterile. Once  the wind noises stop and that little section where it's just the drums, it is heard best. It sounds very computer generated.

I'd say add some reverb, very tiny bit on the drums.

Rock on.

Perceptions are strange things. Yes I wanted the background music to have a bit of a computer-generated feel in order to highlight the organic nature of the guitar.

However, here's the thing: the only truly computer generated part of this music was...... wait for it.... here it comes...the guitar which is a sequencer plugin played via a keyboard and numerous real-time MIDI controllers.

Surely a twist worthy of Agatha Christie?
