Very cool track! I enjoy how you composed this. I like when the guitar comes in, I think it is a nice emphasis to the hero's fall! Nicely done

I just had Flash Gordon on the brain and thought it would really carry the 2nd half.

Glad you had a good time.

Banger. Loving the storytelling here. My fav from yours till now, maybe because of the taming of the tensions, this one feeling fairly intuitively tonal all the way while keeping the spice. Also the mix feels solid and the part from the one minute mark, distorted synth and piano blend very well volume and space-wise. Making me want go and relisten to Selling England By The Pound, which I will just do right now.

I think i got a tad lucky, I took a rest from it for a few hours and built it in a way where there was a shift partway in when i got back. :)

Walking the single-note lead synth was pleasant while i was building it.

Glad you enjoyed. for the 6th jam I am doing a vocal for a change :)

You have correctly divined that Alan Parsons is probably my Happy Place

I did do a cover of Silence and I where i monetized it and went through the Harry Fox Agency nonsense for the license
