Another of my attempts at combining Cinematic / Symphonic Sounds with Rock / Metal tunes. Please let me know how I did this time!

Hi everybody! How are your Orchestras and Bands taking care in time of quarantine and/or meeting prohibition? The simplest way is to take you handy and record... This is our end-effect! The piece is called Nessaja (by Peter Maffay and Rolf Zuckowski) arranged by our conductor Benny Oschmann (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benny_Oschmann)

Thanks for the positive feedback! I'm very grateful that you took the time to listen to our tracks, it's vary hard these days to get any feedback at all. Regarding the "meat" - this is my main issue, I would like to have a heavy, modern sounding rock section and a huge, wide orchestra sound in the same time. Unfortunately from the mixing point of view it's quite impossible, you always have to find a compromise because both worlds take the whole sonic range of the mix. To heavy rock section is causing the orchestra to sound small, but to big orchestra is pushing the rock section in the background. My personal taste tends to let the orchestra breathe - to simulate a situation where a symphonic orchestra would be supported by a rock section and not the other way. Alternative approach would be to change the arrangement. Most of the modern symphonic prog rock bands tend to "castrate" the tutti sections, leaving only the essential parts of orchestra, leaving a lot of sonic space for the rock section. Than in pure orchestral parts let it fully shine using full potential and instrumentation. Personally I don't like it as much. I assume it will take some time before I find my golden mean.

Hi all! I would like to share with you some of my rock/metal/symphonic compositions created with strong purpose of illustrating video games. (Some of them are actually featured as soundtrack in couple of indie productions). I stay forward for your feedback, suggestions, opinions, and of course likes and shares! GREAT THANKS!
