Artist's description:
I guess this is what you get when I play Myst and watch Bond films... :D

This track's a bit of a melange of orchestral stuff with some electronica elements, too. It was really more of an experiment than anything, which explains the lack of polish somewhat. Let me know what you think!

Very nice laidback piece. Pretty good sample work, could have been better, but this track doesn't ask for that 'ultra-realistic' orchestrating, I think. Really like the drums, maybe a little bit ov... Read full review

Glad you liked the theme, Space Walk. I think it's one of my more interesting ones, in that it moves around without really going anywhere, but still does, kinda... Hard to explain. :) I always find it hard to get a choir sounding decent. Guess I just need more practice! :D I do think that there's a general problem with balance in this song; the snare's certainly an example of this.

Thanks Hanhis! Glad you liked it. :) Yeah, I did actually toy with the idea of "exploding" it like you suggest, but then I figured that I'd rather mess with people's expectations. :D I also didn't want this to become an "epic" track, with lots of different sections all tied together. I don't think I'm skilled enough to be able to pull that off in this track without destroying the atmosphere.

Fantastic theme, the string chords are outstanding work and one of the best actually. The choir is far back and not my taste. The lines of bass and it's "in your face" approach is cool and adds depths to the music. I believe the string chords are primarily influenced by the game Myst, and the rest comes especially the bass come from the Bond movies. The snare wasn't completely my taste either, at places it repeats too many times, sound louder than the fill in elements such as hi-hats and also sounds a bit hollow and empty for such tune that drives by great emotive chords.

Wow, I like your style writing orchestral stuff. This one has somewhat haunting lead melody with horns, and I think horns are really great in this tune. I can't say anything about tech stuff, but arrangement is simply wondeful. I was expecting song to "explode" at somepoint, by explode I mean somekind fast part , I don't know. I think song has very unusual concept, orchestral stuff and reggae beats.. =) And it works !
