Wow! What an arrangement!

All the instruments and orchestration scream "spooky"!

Big Danny Elfman influence I guess.

It's just splendid. I listened to it several times because I felt the meter was strange (3x4/4 + 5/4), it adds that uneasy, unstable aspect perfect for a spooky boss.

There's a lot of good stuff in your composition. The intro sets the mood right away, and the build-up is fantastic.

In short, it's all good.

One small point for improvement would be the panning: the double bass pizzicato is too far to the right. For headphone listening, having the bass off-center unbalances the mix.

What do you think? But as the French say: ça déchire!

Hey, thank you for your kind comment.

I grew up watching un bunch of Tim Burton movies so yeah, Danny Elfman is a strong influence here, especially in the vocal part I think.

You got it with the time signature ! To be precise, it's a 4 + 4 + 5 + 4 structure (the 3rd bar being divided as 3 + 2) to match the accents of the harmony.

I totally agree with you about the panning. I did not spend much time on the mixing part, and I went with the default settings fors the strings panning. Will try enhancing that next time :)
