I've been testing out some new gigastudio libraries to use in the composition of the soundtrack of my next project, and some critique from the musicians around here would come in very handy. I'm aware the mix is currently quite unbalanced and a little overpowering, something I plan to address as soon as I get some time to work on it a little more.
Muchos gratias, folks =)

Nice piece! I like the composition. I would vary the overall dynamics a bit, also tone down the strings a wee bit perhaps (make them a little more subtle). Good job.

Could you provide a .mid file as reference? Would make it easier to critique.

Edit: what libraries btw?
Looking for a writer

Listening again, I think the harpsichord section towards the end is a bit too edgy, doesn't really match up with the overall feel. Hmmm. Perhaps you could try a different instrument and work on the dynamics of that particular line.

Hmm, it seems I made a bit of a cockup and uploaded a rather old version of the track before being bundled off to University. I guess I should label them better =)

Sorry for wasting your time folks, I shall upload the correct version as soon as they switch on broadband in the flat.

I dunno why, but this music makes me think of Heroes Of Might and Magic III

Not to say anything about copying, I just thought I'd let you know

Comments:

(note: merely suggestions)

1. Put that flute up an octave in the beginning, and make more pitch bends to make it more realistic.

2. Put ambient effects in the second "amazon-sounding" part.

Overall, pretty nice music. I think this is the first time I've heard any of your songs!

Pft!

Sounds almost like the music in the hero6 demo. Nice.  8)
