Hi, I'm a country, rock, and bluegrasser. For the past two years I've been writing and producing instrumentals of different kinds. A lot of them are like this one that I call "Through the Gate." To me, it's like movie music or "program" music, similar to New Age but more "orchestral." So if you please, give it a listen and tell me what the heck I'm writing? Thanks. Mike

I can tell you it ain't country and it ain't bluegrass either.  It's a very nice orchestral piece. It has a nice melancholy feel that I like. Some orchestral pieces are just that and do not convey any emotion. That's how I experience it quite often. This piece does and that's an accomplishment in itself. Nice use of sounds and effects as well. Enjoyed it. |

Thanks for the kind words. It was done with an EMU Proteus and a freeware download syth. I'll check the files and find out which one. When I do strings, I run the same midi files through two or more string sounds so they don't all warble at the same time. Sometime this year I might get one of those orchestra samplers.
Thanks again,
Mike

Mike,
That is a really nice orchestral piece..evokes images..yeah, it's kind of like a soundtrack.
Adventurous territory..I'm a guitar picker myself, and this sort of music has caught my ear and turned my head more than once. Very cool..Keep up the good work.
Wyatt

I agree with Wyatt. It evokes images, I don't know why but I imagined Castles while listening to this Piece  I would describe this as an Orchestral Piece. Very nice arrangement and melody |

I'd call it a nice piece of music. It's very dramatic and would fit nicely onto a film soundtrack. Thanks for sharing.

Welcome Dr Boom Boom!!
Unfortunately, I can't get it to play on my system. Maybe you could try a re-upload.
