Description
Here I have an orchestral composition for an adventurous, action based video game.

Track 1, Breath of Life was made as some short Title Screen, or introductory music.

Track 2, Mountain Path is the beginning of the quest, or the journey. Trials and hardships lie in wait, but conquer the strenuous mountain paths and our hero will be rewarded with a world of unfathomable beauty.

Message from the artist:
Best of luck fellow composers, happy to share with the community.

Theme

a journey to remember.
Picture theme

How does it fit the theme?
The theme reminds me of a hero on a quest, far away from home. The journey is reaching the other side of the mountains through their unknown paths.

amazing thing you got there. one of the few who managed to suck me into your world with the first second of your music.

By far the most pleasing submission that I've listened to so far. Everything sounds so professional! Wouldn't be surprised seeing this in a AAA game. I haven't listened to all entries yet but I can bet this one gets the #1 spot on quality.

The only thing that I felt missing comparing to the other OSTs was a more interesting/enveloping story. But that's something outside the listening experience.

Extraordinary work.

Impressive work. You orchestrated it so good, I love it. Very interesting to listen!

The rhythm was very interesting and the development was very exciting. Nice Job! :D

Love the 6/4, lively, sounds like a fantastic initial battle or chase scene. The piano ostinato is my favorite element. Very fine job!

Submitted

Really impressive orchestration!

I don't want to overlook the rest of your work, but man, the first minute is just INSANE. I love the energy of the string staccatos at the beggining. The pattern and the accents are not the typical ones and very off beatm which keeps you on edge. I like the use of the brass, very simple but effective phrases, very cinematic like, while the piano and other strings are doing the rest of the work in the background. 

And the mixing and sound quality is just so good. Congratulations

Thanks buddy, much appreciated!

Everything here exudes professionalism: the melodic creation, the harmonic variation (and I am very demanding on this point), the rhythms, the general orchestration, ... everything is always very clean, sounds perfectly balanced, and it is is a pleasure to see that everything has been done note by note, with a personal construction, and a mastered rendering in the details of its general balance. This OST is expertly studied to answer the subject of the Jam: to illustrate a journey to remember. It's technic, it's artistic, ... The most classic and epic music possible. What else to add ? Just perfect, in every ways.

The overall production was absolutely amazing! The orchestration was great! The sections were fantastic with chilling modulations. I'd love to know if you took inspiration from Genshin Impact because it reminds me very much of that music and atm I'm in love with it 😍

thanks bud! I’ve been listening to genshins OST for the past month haha. Definitely inspired my tracks, good ear.
