Also a few notes to keep in mind, if this sequence sounds similar to anything you've heard before then that is intentional.
Future Luneric project to get in before Eric's birthday, just need a commentary before I get too far with progress.
I like the song overall. There are a few things that you may want to keep in mind, though. For my taste, personally, there are some portions of the song that have a little too much going on. The first measure of the song musically is fine. The problem I had was that it feels a little unexpected to start this kind of song with that many notes. I think that you could almost make the song more powerful/emotional if you trimmed that part down a bit. The same thing applies to measures 15-18; musically, again, it is fine. However, the notes spread almost seven octaves consistently for four measures, and sometimes it could feel a little overwhelming. The part after that, on the other, I loved. Measures 20-35 were seriously great, they fit in with the theme of the song, I understood what was happening, and it felt powerful and emotional. The rest of what you currently have is fine, but I think that when a lot of the lower notes are played, it makes the song sound a little muddy. I almost feel like some of those portions could be brought up an octave and sound fantastic. Finally, when you continue this song, I think it would be beneficial to repeat previous sections, maybe with some slight variations. Doing this would make the song as a more memorable, I personally like when a song comes back multiple times to something I heard earlier.
Please don't get me wrong, I know it seems like there is a lot of criticism in this post, but I genuinely believe that this is a good song. Considering that you posted it to this forum, I am just assuming you want as much constructive feedback as possible. Seriously-- good work, and you don't have to feel inclined to take any of my opinions to heart.
