It's been several months since I last posted on this forum.
I come back today with a composition "Wild Horses with no name". It took me a while to make it because I wanted to create a video for this soundtrack. I think I have achieved the goals I set for myself. It's up to you to see if I've reached them. Thank you in advance for your comments.
Used tools : Style Alberti.Sty.These are piano and drums midi files on which I put vst pianos (Steinway B from Eastwest) and drums from Eastwest. I added a few notes from a solo guitar to give more depth and vary the melody.
Nice cinematic piece from you. I kept thinking what it would sound like if the tempo was doubled half way through after a pause and then faded out. Like the horses were running off into the distance. Just a thought.
I purchased a "symphonic orchestra gold complete" bundle from Easwest. This bundle includes many different orchestral instruments including an F Steinway piano. The vst QL Pianos Gold Steinway D alone can be purchased from best service. Thank you for your nice comment.
Derochette, you write songs we can see. Love this story. yessir, in my opinion you most definitely achieved your goals. I first listened to Soundcloud, and was blown away by the quality of those instruments, and your ability to manipulate them into such a fine piece of music. When listening I envisioned one particular horse in the group and the story had a sad and happy ending. I didn't see that in the video, but I really enjoyed the galloping. Well done, and I missed you.
Derochette, that's wonderful - every piece is so in tune with the others and all they sound like freedom - yes, the ocean space and wild horses running - you put them into one whole - great, really!
Derochette, you have met your goal and then some! While listening to your excellent music and watching those horses I thought that I was watching a documentary on wild horses. Outstanding mix also.
I didn't watch but I did listen to the youtube audio as it's often better than the soundcloud/soundclick et al. This sounds terrific though the electric guitar gets a little histrionic in spots. Your progressions and arrangements always reach up and out to create space and weight. The title threw me given the America song by a similar name.
Your comment makes me happy. I looked for video clips for this composition where the horses seemed to be free without showing the humans in the background. A big thank you to you.
Hello Derochette very good song Sounds really nice The intro is excellent And of course the great melody, fits perfectly to the video Well done Many greetings Andi ;-)
It is true that I put a lot of delay on the guitar. For the title, maybe I should change it because it reminds us of the group America (which was a musical masterpiece) with horse in the singular. I put it in the plural.
I was excited to see this song available on the forum. Your pieces just bring my studio alive with very cool music. Mixes are so clear and clean. Awesome to use as references and ear tuning before mixing. Love your stuff. Well done
You are very good at creating cinematic pieces, and this is no exception. Piano sounds great, and I also like the electric guitar, it was unexpected but works well I think.
The video and audio reflect the majesty and power but also the joy that those horses seem to be experiencing.
Janice said she could almost hear the horses shouting to each other their jubilation.
Those are beautiful horses and video imagery is captivating.
Excellent composition and mix.
This endeavor was well worth the wait!

PS Thank you for the kind words regarding our song post (You Can't Shape My Dreams). It's been posted a while and we didn't want to bounce it again by responding. We do appreciate it!
Thank you for your nice comment. In this soundtrack, from the Biab style piano midi file, I used the Steinway piano from Easwest. And on the guitar, I put a lot of delay to amplify its sound.
I am always happy to read your encouraging comments. In the absence of lyrics in my soundtracks, I will try to create an attractive video to illustrate listening. But I'm still a beginner in video editing and I hope to improve in this area. Many thanks again to both of you.
Derochette...a beautiful piece of music indeed! Your use of video and score are very well crafted and created a great cinemascope for us to both watch a nd listen to...I really like the guitar parts they added an element of power to the music...it was great! thanks so much.
This another very good composition and production from you! All the little extras thrown in really elevate the piece to a higher level! It's an excellent sounding track!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I am new in this field and I intend to improve. I use an inexpensive tool (Magix) which allows me to make cool videos. Thanks for commenting.
Thank you very much for your nice comment. For the guitar, I thought a lot about giving it depth with the delay and I put few notes in it to contrast with the other instruments providing the rhythm.
Beautiful composition with cinematic chord progression. Lovely piano, wistful strings and the guitar creates an image of freedom in the wild. I like how the horses are galloping to the music in the video.
Derochette, I agree with others, your cinematic pieces are ones of the best here. Pleasant instrumentation and excellent blending of the electro guitar into composition. Beautiful video images. Thank you for sharing.
