An ocassional sound of gunfire, and sirens. Everywhere there’s either gunmen, drug dealers, druggies, or pimps.

Suddenly out of a dark alley, a guy in a fedora and a trenchcoat walks out; an old P.I.

As the sax kicks in, he’s smoking a cigarette
walking down the street
at the end, he’s confronted by a gunman
and he gets shot
Thus the flatlining.

Dystonia (full)

The piece follows common practice in order to create a very tonal and proper sounding piece. In order to evoke the feeling of Heaven even moreso, the melody begins in the harp and is later passed off to the flute for awhile. All the while, calm, quiet strings accompany while growing and dissipating. Over all, just a simple, quiet piece.

Instruments Used: Flute, Harp, Strings

Serves as dark character/temple theme. I’ve been out of practice, so it’s a bit under par from my pre-military works.

Instruments Used:
Harp, Violins, Cello, Tubular Bell, Bassoon

Inspiration:
Boredom

Dwelling of the Undying Spirit

Take 2 because CompoST 10 was a jungle theme but all the songs failed horribly. This compo was no different except the songs were a bit better. I like pluckey things. This is a bit short [actually: really short] but I think it is a sexy song. The title is a reference to zircon’s compost 10 entry ”Jungle Bungle” which sucks hard.

So yeah, this song could be used for an atmospheric jungle setting.

This is my first attempt at using orchestration. With advise from many of the Sakari Infinity members, mainly Chris Hurn, I pieced together a ”big” orchestral tune. It would probably fit quite well in a game, or at least I hope. :{P

UPDATE – I changed the name from ”Power” to the ”The Majestic” to fit the middle section.
I have also fixed the ending and the silence section. (You will notice this piece is alot shorter now :{P)

Instruments Used:
3 Violins, 2 Cellos, a Double Bass, a Bassoon, a Harp, a Timpani, a Cymbal, and finally a Grand Piano.

Inspiration:
My main influence would be Jeremy Soule’s soundtrack to ”Total Annihilation”, but all of his work seems to come through. Also, Nobuo Uesmatsu, but I don’t seem to hear much influence in this particular piece.

It has been a while since I submitted anything. This is a new piece that I wrote with an opening scene in mind. It can be used for darker scenes but I don’t think it would be that good to loop.

Instruments Used:
Syth Lead, Strings, Glass, Bass and Drum Kit

Inspiration:
Darker movies from the 80’s. Reminds me a little of John Carpenter.

Written for the April 2008 competition. I didn’t really have much in mind when I was writing this, but as I finished it, I thought it might go well with a scene involving someone saying a bittersweet goodbye to someone else as they leave on a ship.

Instruments Used:
Grand Piano, Pizz. Violins, Cellos, Basses, Harp, Trumpets, Trombones, French Horns, Male and Female Choir ”ahhs”, Piccolo, Flute, Oboe, Percussion (cymbals, snare drum, tambourine)

Inspiration:
I’m not really sure where this one’s inspiration came from actually… I’m not sure if it has a blatant one.
