Interesting entry! The sound was great, I liked the harsh piano chords. You seem to have a good idea of chord progressions. I personally did not found it much 'sunrise-y', but I do see what you were going for. Funny idea to go for some Tolkien-lore stuff, I believe you've been doing this for a while? Nice song :D

Well one would have to delve into the lore. The sunrise of Tolkien's Sun as the last fruit of the tree Laurelin...is kind of a bittersweet moment.
The abandoned folk of Fingolfin (and Finarfin) had to walk all through that Grinding Ice stuff and they're not happy.
Maglor is down there on the shores of Lake Mithrim dejectedly watching Fingolfin dismount his horse (with Galadriel and her elder brother's very stern gazes right beside him) and he's like 'ohhhhh lovely they're here a little earlier than we thought').
(Maedhros being detained elsewhere hanging from the cliff face of Thangorodrim at present by a band of steel around his wrist....)
that -does- put a damper on the standard cheerfulness of this sunrise. Also fun fact for the first week Anar rises in the west rather than east
(hence putting it on the left of the track art)
Glad you enjoyed.
