The Coming Storm

This is another musical piece. I wanted to do an ominous, somewhat villainous theme in contrast to 'Summon the Heroes'. Originally it was to a be a simple villain theme, but over the course of composition I became inspired by the Smashing Pumpkins' 'The Beginning is the End is the Beginning' (I borrowed the rhythm and some of the chord progression) and it changed into something else. The deep strings and the slow, relentless percussion reminded me of some impending doom and so it became the Coming Storm.

Do enjoy. The Coming Storm

Very nice. I especially liked the part around 2:47 - 2:52 mark on the Media Player.

The only thing I would say that it could benefit from is an increase in tempo towards the end, with the choral part becoming louder and more forthright? To mirror the onset, or the building up of the storm before it hits.

Have you ever approached or been approached by anyone to do a collaboration on here?

I think it would be brilliant.

[/ QUOTE ]Noooooo. It sounds great like this, the ending sounding more ominous and creepy - personal favorite ten seconds of the song are 2:40 to 2:50.

Great stuff, dude...

That would go perfect with opening credits to a CoX movie! Well, if they ever make the planned one...

Very nice work once again, EternalKnights.
