You do a couple (at least) of distinctly different styles of music... this one has a very strong melody and I think I prefer that side of your output - not by much but you'll probably have noticed more of a tendency towards melody driven music in my output so it's not a surprise that's my preference. I'm nitpicking with what I say next so feel free to disregard it... You could possibly do with having a real guitarist play the guitar melody (and a real bagpipe player too ;-) ) just to move the track from sounding like a fantastic amateur track to sounding like a professional recording from someone who has lots of friends 'in the business' they can call on ;-) Cheers, Terry. -------------- http://purplerhapsody.co.uk - no words, just emotions Back to top

Not pure Voyager... probably because you've not stuck with the celtic pentatonic minor scale - I think. By the way - Wuthering Heights (1992), has a main theme tune which is very Voyager I think - from 1.15 onwards   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Srg_R-NoXGg -------------- Barn's burnt down - now I can see the moon.

Thanks Terry, I could ask Kev to do the gits but who will play the pipes? -------------- Composin' until I'm decomposin' http://soundcloud.com/quietman www.4th-Eden.com Back to top

Stairway to Heaven has the sequence - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcL---4xQYA -------------- Barn's burnt down - now I can see the moon. Back to top
