Description
The last stand in the war against birds, where humanity is facing its ultimate destiny...
Created with Cubase Elements, with BBC Symphony Orchestra Discover for strings, horns and trumpets; snare from SINEfactory, and SFX (pigeon sounds, shots and grunts) from Freesound.org.
Anecdotic stuff:
For this track I used the same sequence of notes of the beginning of the main riff of "Seven Nation Army" for the pizzicato strings, as a pun cause it sounds similar to "1000 Pigeon Army". It is written in 7/4 as I took the beginning of "The Battle of Epping Forest" as a reference.

The serious, heroic military music contrasting the pigeons and human screams and the gunshots are hilarious!!! It's got those Starship Troopers vibes! :-D Great work!
Thanks a lot!
This reminds me a lot of the soundtrack to Final Fantasy 8. Feels very military in the same way. I like the use of the slightly odd time signature here, which made the song sound unpredictable (like I imagine an army of pigeons would be)
Thanks!
