Adventures In Alchemy — Fantasy Orchestral

An old piece of more serious film music I did 5 years ago. Apparently, it was missing from my channel, so I revamped it a bit and reuploaded.

Let me know what you guys think!

Nice brass introduction. Typical development of the style. Quite good.

Cool and intriguing dorian mood you establish in this by using that major IV in a minor key.  The orchestration is very good (do you make scores?).  I'm glad the length to which you managed to extend this and I like the succinct ending that you weave.  Great job thanks for sharing!

I love it. Yes the brass introduce Luis mentioned and the Dorian Peter mentioned is great. The major IV really gives that bright feeling of an adventure. That flute sliding in 1:26 and the oboe entry are colourful. The ending with the triangle is very cute. Very nice use of orchestral colour, though it's just your normal practice to achieve this!

I live for the major IV

Thanks! Which exactly do you mean by "make scores"? If you mean sheet music, I don't have any sheet music for this atm.

Heh, yeah thanks. I remember being really proud of the ending.

Very cool man. I like how colorful the melody/counter melody stuff was over the racing strings. As always the mixing is superb, I'm always taking notes from you on that 😛

Thanks for sharing!

Ha, thanks! Honestly though, I'm not really the best at mixing.
