Hello Everyone,


Today we have five new tracks available for April's poll.



The first is an action theme called "Double Cobra Triple Dragon" as a sort of homage/parody to 80's and early 90's action flicks. It's got some retro drums, arpeggiating plucks and some screaming trumpets to complete the feeling and drop us right in the middle of one of those movies.



The second track is an evil, horror theme named "Creeper's Web." The echoing piano is the main point from start to finish here and sets the mood immediately. The custom Bazantaar provides us with our deep, menacing bass plucks. And to put us over the top we have some steam-like and screaming sounds laying on top.


Next is "Feel Good Story." The tone of the two main guitars automatically put me inside an 80's comedy movie, most likely written by john Hughes. The whole tone of this track made me feel like a lot of tensions and problems were going to rise between our core characters and ultimately be resolve with a strong bond taking their place.


The fourth piece is "Elementary, My Dear." It's pretty self-explanatory. The piano's bass notes set the tone straight away and the trumpets really add to the detective/noir feeling. Though I do believe this theme fits a grittier, street-smart detective like a Sam Spade more than the hyper-intellectual Holmes, the name just kind of came to me and I stuck with it.


And lastly we have "Zero World," where everything seems to have disappeared and we're existing in an endless void of nothingness and despair. The rising notes that start this track and play throughout are actually those of a very distorted, dissonant guitar. The booming percussion adds that extra bit of oomph and really makes us feel the weight of our hopeless predicament.



I'll start a private poll for the second tier and higher to cast your vote for the piece you want finished. Voting will end April 30th, so you have plenty of time to decide!


Thanks so much for your patience and continued support! I hope you've all been well and I hope you enjoy the music!
