Message from the artist
First composing jam and not a lot of time, but I wanted to submit something

Theme

Chronicles of the Azure Sky: The White Dragon's Melody

How does it fit the theme?
I imagined a scene of a game with the debut of one of the main NPC characters that is introduced as the White Dragon.

I love the I-bIII chord changes at the beginning. And then was pleasantly surprised by some of the darker chord choices that come in later. Cool track!

Very nice! I really like the guitar in the beginning.

Developer

Thank you! I think that's really starting to be my favorite part also. I woke up with that lead melody in my head this morning randomly lol

Heads up, The link to youtube music says you don't have any music on there so I had to download the song instead. IDK if that was just me but I wanted to let you know.

I liked the transition at 43 seconds it was really nice!

Developer

Thank you! I gave up on YouTube and uploaded to SoundCloud and linked now and that seems to work!

Cool track! My first impression of this track is Life is Strange and Silent Hill 2 (maybe because they are the only 2 games I played that have this style of music lol). It's interesting that you added the electric guitar. I can see that you have a lot of ideas, so keep on composing and experimenting!

Thank you so much! I will have to go listen to some songs off of those OST's now! I'm vaguely familiar with Silent Hill 2, but not Life is Strange.

Relaxing! It's got an indie rock vibe, which I have a soft spot for. Well done!

How did you go about making it, i.e. what software/instruments/virtual instruments did you use?

FYI it's not uploaded on your YouTube playlist yet; I downloaded it.

Developer

Thanks!

I originally wrote the piece on piano and then started arranging it for more of a rock type arrangement.

I played the intro on an acoustic guitar on 5 different tracks (2 double parts and the lead part solo), then the middle section is on an electric guitar I have played through a Distortion Factory pedal that has amp modeling built into it. My friend recorded the bass direct in I believe.

Thanks for the playlist info. I may end up trying SoundCloud instead. I uploaded my track to YouTube Music, then put it onto a public playlist, but I don't think it is working for some reason. I guess I will look today and see if I can figure it out, or just try SoundCloud instead.
