Alright, I made a track for this Tune Contest!

I'm pretty excited.  This track was made (as all of my entries in the past) specifically for the contest.  This one is a loop, so it plays through twice.  I had a few more ideas, but they didn't really work with what I had, so I cut it down to the core in the end.

Without further ado, here is the track I composed for the above scenery:

Scenery Tune, November 2013 (https://soundcloud.com/dactylopus/scenery-tune-november-2013)

I tried to capture the sunny, grassy feel of the picture, while still observing it's mountainous qualities.  Mostly, I tried for something that felt like a nice green garden, with an adventurer as a gardener!

This one was a lot of fun, and as always I wish I had more time.  It was a good break from other projects, and a good opportunity to stretch my musical muscles a bit.

Enjoy!

nihilyst, I am unable to listen to your tune.  I encounter problems loading the page.

Strangely, I also can't see your avatar (but I know you have one, there's an empty box).  Not sure what the issue is.

Edit:  Unable to connect to anything at the domain longwayhome.de (http://www.longwayhome.de/), no idea why.  Is it possible to upload elsewhere?

In the meantime, my feelings upon the nihylist theme:

Nihilyst , your mustic very inspiring, I was really impressed by the choosen instrumentation. There is a
kind of nostalgia in your theme that I would surely feel in that scenery.

Dactylopus, it is the oriental them that gets me first, the selection of flute and piano is also a great choice. The repetition of the melodic theme ensure in incrust your mind in no time.


It is always such a pain to choose between such greats artists who participate into that contest. I must say it is not an easy one but for this contest I pick Nihilyst input.

Congratulations :)
