Description
This is an orchestral piece made using virtual instruments in Fl Studio. This piece takes inspiration from Yu-Peng Chen's Genshin Impact scores, and attempts to represent the dragon in a battle and more peaceful contexts.

Had a late start so didn't have a lot of time for mixing, or fleshing detail, wanted to expand too, but I'm glad I got more experience writing in this style, and with what I was able to get to given the late start. I hope you enjoy!

Theme

Chronicles of the Azure Sky: The White Dragon's Melody

Am I missing something or huuh? Why so few ratings? You deserve a great deal more for this beautiful composition! I feel you caught a great many emotions in this short track. I feel we went with a similar approach of trying to fit different moods in our 2 minutes, cramming it all in there. ^^ And I think it all works very well together!  Aprupt start, maybe, but I find that works quite well, throwing you right into the action. I also feel soundcloud isn't doing you wonders in that regard tho, there's some weird thing where the song doesn't start exactly at 0, so I always add like a second of silence when I render to soundcloud.

Oh thank you so much for the kind words! Yea you're totally right on the intro. I try to write organically, so refining things on short deadlines is something I've been really wanting to get down. In the same vein though, I'm really glad to hear the emotional range came across. I'll leave more thoughts on your post, but I regret missing the chance to vote, I feel the same way about yours! I think it's cool we both took that approach. And I'll keep the soundcloud tip in mind, thanks!

The first half really gives me boss theme vibes. And then I liked the peaceful second half. Great work! 

Developer

Really impressive. Great composition and quality (Would love to hear more of your works :D)

Only thing would be that its starting a bit too fast for my taste (got me confused for a second if i skipped a second or so)

Hey, thanks a lot! Put a link to my realcrafter on my profile :3

Good catch, I rushed to meet the length, so the start's a bit abrupt. I'll definitely check out your work!
