Orchestral fan music inspired by CoH

I wanted to share this orchestral piece of fan music that is inspired by this great game with all of you
I can't draw or anything like that so that's the only thing I am able to show a tribute to this game.

Youtube: "Welcome to Paragon City!"

It includes a reference of the Atlas Park theme but that's the only thematic thing that has been captured. It was aimed for catching the overal mood and feel of the game (especially when you enter the game for the very first time).

edit: added another game inspired track:
Youtube: "The Hollows"

And here is a theme music for a hero on the German server:
Youtube: "Fliege - Hero of Paragon City"

Another hero based piece:
Youtube: 'Dark Eye'

I am curious about your opinion.
Thanks for listening

Oh very cool... *goes off to download and give it a listen*

Brassy and heroic yep and I do hear the notes of Atlas during the intro. This is good stuff Hellstorm, got any more?

One --> Artz Giveaway <-- To Rule Them ALL!

I will settle this. ORANGE FTW! - Ex Libris

Nicely done! Some familiar bits in there for the regular CoH'er, and you've added some nice big brassy sounds, which add to the heroic theme.

Thanks for sharing this!

Thank you

@Dark Ether Yes I like to do these big brassy stuff. Maybe you should check out my other videos too ("Space Ace" for example)

Big thanks again

Nicely done =]

I enjoyed this very much - I particularly liked the recurring use of the AP theme to tie it all together!

I hate to ask, but is this finished? It seemed just to stop after the horn expression of the theme just before 2:30. IMO, a piece as epic as this deserves a big finish!

Big thanks to all of you

Actually it's not completely finished yet. I planed to write a big final for this one but I can't tell when I will find the free time to finish this one yet.
But not after I got so many nice comments about it I feel excited to continue working on the end as soon as possible
Thanks again.

Added two new tracks

I added a new track I posted it in the other thread: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showthread.php?t=233284

Excello Hellstorm. I think you captured the spirit there. WD.

Thanks

Nice work. I especially like the Fliege theme!

That´s really great music.
For a few seconds I really considered getting me a copy of cubase... and then I saw the prize. O.O
My whole computer didn´t cost that much.
Guess I´ll stay with Magix... making crappy electro stuff T.T

@Redcap

I am currently working on a new track and I hope I can post it here soon too. I got a lot of nice messages because of my compositions and I just wanted to thank you all for your kind words

Reminds me of a movie soundtrack! You've got some serious skill, Hellstorm! Thanks for sharing this

As a film score fan and a fan of production house/trailer music (Two Steps from Hell, X-Ray Dog, Immediate Music, etc.), I have to say your work is fantastic. I think my favorite is Fliege's theme, but with all of them your skill is obvious.

Nice work! What tools are you using?

Thank you all for you nice comments

I work with Cubase (4) combined with some sample libraries like 'Symphonic Orchestra' and 'Stormdrum I + II' by East West. The midi controller I use for playing and recording all the sections is a M-Audio 'Keystation 88es'.

Nice, I don't have anything at the moment, but would you be willing to let me use any of these for my CoH videos I've been making? http://tinyurl.com/OnYourMArc for my current vids.
