This is the first four minutes of my new orchestral work, "Lifequest", written as I was trying to get out of a crippling creative block. Extremely emotional, self-indulgent and personal. The remaining fourteen minutes of the piece are still under construction!

Very nice piece indeed.

Slap bang in the middle between something ambient, and a movie score :D

Definitely needs more, ha.

Very creative, I'm envious that I have no idea how to go about something like this.

I like it.

Can I give some critique? Near the end, starting at 3:47, it sounds more like alien guns shooting or that thriller movie sound when something scary's about to come out. I think what I'm trying to say is make it sound more organic? use a different sound.

I dunno, that's just what came to my mind. :P

Thanks a lot everyone for taking the time to listen to it.
Four minutes of internet time is actually quite a bit.

Al, that alien bit is from later in the piece. I move it to that spot because I needed the orchestra to play it so I knew what it would sound like.
Keith. wow! Listened to all of first and half of second. Those pieces make me want to put choral in there. Wish I could afford it :(

The cover is brilliant.

I like your faster tracks though, because I like to listen to them alongside skyrim. The pacing is great though; I always refer to compositions in direct reference to their ability to complement the games I am playing, so my judgement isn't worth noting.
