Still working on the soundtrack...
Been doing some research on Bill Brown. Walau... his arrangements for movies and games are like... godly loh. Only thing is... his melodies are utterly unmemorable. But he does that on purpose because thats his style. Apparantly by not having any solid melody, his arrangements can blend in seeminglessly, yet the beats and chord progressions and modulations will get the feelings going just right.
"When writing music, please write like Wagner, only louder."
Awesome orchestrated pieces, but no melody. Kinda like senseless pop or rock where the only focus is on the beat.
I prefer Nobuo and Joe Hisaishi's pieces much more. They can have everything, awesome arrangements, yet engaging melodies. David Kalabakov, is another awesome composer.
Still evolving my style... but one thing's for sure. I concentrate on the melodies to drive the piece through. But I guess I'll play around with Bill Brown's style a little bit... see where in the middle do I land...
Some tracks are sounding good, some sound errr.... ok. When this is done I'll upload it somewhere for the masses to enjoy.
