Description
This soundtrack is for an imaginary fantasy action/adventure game.
It is an orchestral score consisting of 3 tracks, built around a handful of motifs.
My main goals were to explore using orchestral percussion, compose a "heroic" theme and to create some massive orchestral sounds.
Message from the artist

Interesting spectrum of sounds, from triumphant to horror. Nice job!
Danger sequence reminded me of the escape sequence in trivia murder party on jackbox which is super cool!
The Hero's Journey is inspiring! A good start for an epic royal soundtrack (BARABANS AAAA)
Danger Sequence - Good... This sounds like Mystrer X from Resident Evil is coming towards me.... Sounds creepy and cool!
Emerging From The Ashes to Triumph - A beautiful, gradually escalating track!
You make beautiful orchestral music! Thanks for the enchanting moments)
The ending sequence was really well composed! I could totally picture that song at the end of the hero's journey, watching the sun set after a hard battle!
Great use of dynamics on The Hero's Journey. Danger Sequence's pitched strings remind me of Trivia Murder Party lol. Emerging From Ashes to Triumph is my favorite, just great writing and very majestic. Good job!
I was surprised by Danger Sequence ^^Unsettling sound design !

Good work on an orchestral soundtrack. Percussion feels punchy and powerful. As many have noted, the second track is the best with the unique choice to detune strings producing a threatening, "swarm of bees" type sound. I would have wished for more of that, but it is a very solid entry nonetheless.
Those string synths in Danger Sequence are awesome!
Like others said the 2nd composition is really cool. I like that eerie sound.
What a cinematic soundtrack! Good job! I absolutely love the use of chimes in the intro of the first song. They have such a unique timbre. The woodwind accompaniment is also really cool and kept my ears tuned in. I do wish they were just a little higher up in the mix towards the end though.
Danger Sequence was probably my favorite. Super eerie and the percussion added to the tense-ness of the situation well. How did you achieve the squealing-like sound effects? I thought that was a cool and creative addition.
Great orchestral soundtrack! I really liked the ambiance in your second track, it really compelled that eerie vibe I think you were going for with the distorted melody. Nice work!
