Description
This is an orchestral composition depicting the power of rapid blossoming in a magical jade forest after a long winter.
It will fit a colorful adventure game perfecly. Composed entirely in Reaper DAW.
Theme:
How does it fit the theme?
Before starting the main motif I thought that it would be great to combine the theme of the jam with the picture impressions, because I actually saw the change of seasons within this illustration. A lot of dynamic builds and falls during the track underline these rapid changes and the intensity tells us that something unusual or even magical is happenning in this imaginary Jade Forest location.

This reminds me a lot of the background music from Skyrim! I like it a lot! Great job!
Thanks a lot! Yeah, Skyrim's atmosphere has grown deep into me within these years.
Really nice sound choices and melodies. Evokes the theme strongly!
A very nice celtic atmosphere, good work!
love it! this might be a coincidence but i see a similarity between the melody and the opening theme to Game of Thrones
Beautiful instrumentation - what a gorgeous track. Puts me in mind of a forest in medieval times populated by mythological beings! I can imagine nymphs and sylphs appearing out of the trees and the air.
Thanks! Nice description :)
