The intro theme from the 1996's Incredible Hulk series. It's epic, so I decided to remake it in better quality and without all those sound effects that mostly get in the way. Admittedly, capturing all the niuanses of this great tune by ear while being attacked by tons of SFX proved harder than I had expected. Either way, here it is. Enjoy.

Enjoy.Bioshock Infinite Trailer - original score (FMF Young Talent Award 2014 entry)Greg Brus2014-09-30 | My submission for the Young Talent Award film scoring competition during the 7th Film Music Festival in Cracow.
Music: Greg Brus Video (with sound effects): who knows. I suspect Irrational Games is the owner. No copyright infringement intended, of course - we were given the video for personal use during the contest, so I'm pretty sure it's all right to showcase the entry with visuals to follow.
Stuff used: - EWQL Symphonic Orchestra Gold - Cockos Reaper - Finale (for the score; you were required to provide both audio and professionally prepared sheet music, suitable for live performance)EWQL Symphonic Orchestra - March of the DamnedGreg Brus2014-03-11 | The Dark Side is coming. And they're out of cookies. Just run.
There isn't much to explain, really. Wanted to have a big blast, and here it is. With drums and horns and all other sort of goodies. You can hardly get more generic than this, but who cares? It sounds epic.
Gear: - EWQL Symphonic Orchestra Gold, Stormdrum, Colossus - Cockos Reaper - Paint Shop Pro 8 (duh) and some random picture from the Internet I lost the link to; not much tinkering done though
Enjoy.Final Fantasy 9 OST - Assault of the White Dragons (reorchestrated)Greg Brus2013-12-28 | A high quality remake of the track played during possibly the best Final Fantasy cutscene ever.
(720p for best sound quality, obviously)Project Civ OST | Eannatum War Theme | Ancient Sumerian MelodyGreg Brus2013-11-18 | Project Civ is a quality oriented fan made mod for the game Civilisation V. More on the project here: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=476960
Basically the goal is to create several new civilisations as polished as the original game's content. This includes providing custom made leader music for each civilisation. That's where I come in. So, here's Sumeria at war.
Leader screen artwork: Leugi Music: meThe Mad Witch (Scary! Sixty Seconds 2013 Contest winner)Greg Brus2013-11-09 | Rules of the contest: Halloween themed, sixty seconds, no more, no less. Need to provide a recording of the piece (live, electronics, VSTi-based, whatever). I win because magic. Enjoy.Ciemna Strona Księżyca (FMF Young Talent Award 2013 entry)Greg Brus2013-10-28 | 13th place in the film scoring competition during 6th Film Music Festival in Cracow.EWQL - Seharqay, the Merchants RefugeGreg Brus2013-07-10 | A city in the middle of the desert, sustained by trade alone - it lives because caravans aplenty go through the wasteland, and they dare risk the journey because Seharqay is there to give them shelter along the way.
Storytelling aside, the piece is mostly my attempt at using various instruments of African and mid-East origins to create a convincing world-styled groove. Stuff used: - EWQL Symphonic Orchestra, Colossus, Stormdrum, Ra - Reaper - artwork: http://dylancole.deviantart.com/art/Desert-Town-28209804 (edited at leisure)
Listen in 720p for best quality. Enjoy.EWQL - The Journey BeginsGreg Brus2013-02-17 | Listen in 720p for better quality!
Epic action adventure fantasy quest or whatever. With dragons, most likely. I really have no idea what to say about this one, so just enjoy, I guess.
Stuff used: - EWQL Symphonic Orchestra, Stormdrum, Colossus - ReaperEWQL - The Adventurers Rest InnGreg Brus2013-02-06 | Generic Tavern Music #1! Or perhaps not too generic because I'm not yet an expert in the style, but going back into the 16th century (with some princesses to save and dragons to kill, obviously - gotta have flavor) seemed like a fair challenge, so here we are. It's short because. Artwork shamelessly borrowed from Rahul Philip (http://www.rahulphilip.com/wordpress ), I hope he doesn't mind a little advertisement.
Stuff used: - EWQL Symphonic Orchestra, Ra - ReaperEWQL - Sunset GrooveGreg Brus2013-01-16 | Requested by a friend. The piece wasn't actually "composed", more like "improvised over and over until it sounded right". Hence the length and occasional mistakes.
Stuff used: - the Steinway patch from EWQL Colossus - ReaperEWQL Symphonic Orchestra - Can-Ka No Rey / The field of rosesGreg Brus2012-12-03 | Inspired by Stephen King's "Dark Tower" series, particularly the marvelous setting of the Tower itself, as pictured numerous times in the story. I strongly recommend the books to anyone who isn't familiar with them.
Stuff used: - EWQL Symphonic Orchestra Gold, Symphonic Choirs - Reaper - wondrous artwork by Ksottam ( http://ksottam.deviantart.com ); I took the liberty to remove Roland from the picture.
Enjoy.EWQL Symphonic Orchestra - Battle #2Greg Brus2012-10-11 | Took a while! This one follows my original plan of creating a set of battle themes. It's loopable just like the previous one - I didn't bother with copying since it's long enough as it is, but it can be played indefinitely.
Stuff used: - Reaper - EWQL Symphonic Orchestra, StormdrumEWQL Symphonic Orchestra - Battle #1Greg Brus2012-07-12 | It's been a while but I finally have enough time to wrap up a mix or two. Original composition of course, done without notation, straight into DAW. I'm not really fond of this one composition-wise, but heck, it's epic :) Equipment used: - Reaper - VST: EWQL Symphonic Orchestra Gold, Colossus, Stormdrum
Enjoy.
PS. The loopability was intentional from the start; I plan to upload several more battle themes that work like this - can be played indefinitely till the battle is finished. Video game-ish, all right...EWQL Symphonic Orchestra - The Ominous Northern PeakGreg Brus2011-01-18 | That would be 3rd mix by me. Original composition ofc, except this one is written from scratch inside the sequencer (no notation software used).
- Sonar 6 (DAW)
- EWQL Symphonic Orchestra Gold (VST)
- some samples from my awesome (not) pianoEWQL Symphonic Orchestra - Call to ArmsGreg Brus2010-11-23 | Epic battle or war or army or whatever theme for full orchestra, original composition by me. Enjoy.
It's my 2nd orchestral mix. Equipment used:
- Finale for notation,
- EWQL Symphonic Orchestra Gold + Stormdrum (VSTi),
- Sonar for mixing and processing.
Any feedback is welcome!Iiro Rantala New Trio - Aino (piano cover)Greg Brus2010-05-28 | Piano cover of the song "Aino" originally done by Rantala's trio, which can be found on the album "Elmo". Rearranged (by ear) and performed by me.
There are some mistakes, solo part sucks (xD) and the sound quality is average at most, but nevertheless, it's my first recording, so - yay! :)Trio Töykeät - Ab FabGreg Brus2010-05-11 | 9th track from the album Kudos by Trio Töykeät. Couldn't find it anywhere on YouTube, and I believe it's truly a masterpiece. So... enjoy.
