Thanks for the list of samples. I don't have any Native Instruments stuff but these sounds are good so I'm sure I'd get on well with them.
Would like more orchestral stuff so I can integrate it into less obvious genres such as psychedelic rock, delta blues, hip hop, d'n'b or a combo of them all.
As I asked before, do you compose any of these tracks specifically for images?
As you clearly know what you're doing, I'd be interested to hear what you make of my own cinematic, very stringy and drumless composition called Visible Aura. Made a long time ago but recently slightly updated and improved. Not high quality string samples but I think they sound good. https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/104733
I find this a bit difficult to analyse and take apart so I'll just say it's very effective cinematic composition that wouldn't be out of place in a whole load of movies and TV shows. So, Game Of Thrones, all sorts of historical stuff.
It reminds me a little in places of Thomas Newman's recent Skyfall soundtrack so check that out if you haven't (I mean away from the film ie just as a piece of music).
I like the Eastern lead melody starting on 0:32 as it's very majestic. Nice, slow notes gradually rising. And then it gets overtaken by another part so a skilful blend there.
Clearly, as you can put all this together, you could do loads more like it. Are these just straight musical compositions or would you like them to be attached to a picture, so to speak?
Finally, a list of sound samples/instruments used on this would be interesting (to me, at least).
I originally started this composition to attempt to create a much longer and flowing strings section, and then I got bored. I worked on this for about two months so my mind wandered a bit. As I came up with different parts that I liked I had to really get creative in how to blend the different parts (thanks for noticing!). Obviously, I tend to gravitate towards music that would fit nicely in visual projects.
As for the list of samples, I used Native Instruments samples primarily.
Alicia's Keys - Piano
NI - Strings (Legato Fortepiano & Staccato)
NI - Brass (Staccato)
NI - Session Strings (Legato Fortepiano & Staccato)
NI - Mutations (Congas)
EXS24 - Ultrabeat Kits
NI - Battery Kits
And other textures in EXS24
I am sure that are at least a couple more, but without sitting down at my DAW, I couldn't remember them all.
very welldone . considered & thouthfull . + some moments which tastes( a bit ) similar to eastern music & I like it.great job colleague Douglas.respects & regards.___Behnam
Behnam, Thank you for kind thoughts, although I was not sure where to go with this track at first, I think the direction it turned out was a good one. Thanks again for your comments, they are always appreciated.
oh yeah...that big transition around 1:50 is a work of art....(as are all of them)...great example of cinematic composing (3rd section..3:20 is a really effective switch)....Definitely music of the picture painting variety Doug...the great thing about the genre is the scope of license it provides for creativity...this is just a superb bit of work and the thought you put into the composition realy shows....a well done to you.....Ed
Thank you for your insight, I was faced with working with many parts that I couldn't in good conscience let go or remove, so I spent a good bit of time working on the transitions and had some fun doing so. As always, I appreciate your input, especially from someone as talented as yourself.
Description : First off, a big thank you to Condybeats for his guitar and Rasputin for the Rhodes. As soon as I heard the guitar, I had immediate imagery. Play the track all the way through to unfold the story. Very cinematic!
Production and Mastering by Oli (who had goosebumps this time), all lyrics, vocals and owl impersonations by Kay. Please find us also at kayos2.bandcamp.com
Description : Banda sonora de un videoclip que acabo de producir.Cuenta la experiencia de una pareja de astronautas y los recuerdos de ella al perder a su compañero. Espero que os guste. Animo y suerte para todos.
Description : Ok...here it is! Another colab with maestro Tumbleweed! Ed provided the unfinished, basic track...I composed and recorded the long intro using different synths and then added piano (well to the fore) and some brass arrangements along the rest of the track (no violin this time...hehe) and then did the final mixing to wrap it up as it is presented now. I hope you will enjoy it and we both appreciate your listening time and your valuable comments:) Otherwise all thanks to Ed!
Description : Just send me the link where you use that, please
Anyway, I'm looking for artists, especially doing melodic techno, deep house etc... to work in my music label called Chick Records
Description : Treated field recordings of bells and thumping big stainless steel sculptures and synth. Inspired by a trip to the sub-Antarctic Islands.
Description : There are a lot of talented people :

Ft Xelaplus for the choirs,
Ft jjweekz for the voice effect,
Drums :
AcidPro on darbuka
Danke on big cymbals
Loopfreak on indian percussions
Anubis on big drums
Tell me what this track made to you ^^'
Thank you.
Description : Dark, slow, ambient, cinematic jazz with funereal piano turning into something much funkier, psychedelic and beautiful in the second half. Out of the darkness and into the light, you could say. Instruments: electric guitar + bass, lots of synth sounds, including a horn, double bass, another big legato bass, pizzicato strings, two types of piano, a heavily delayed slide guitar instrument, zither, synth arp, one brushy drum loop, kettle drum rolls and 4 programmed acoustic drum kits. This is quite a special track for me and is only the second I've put in the cinematic genre. The more you listen, the more it changes (it even has key changes) and the last three minutes are really quite far out and should probably be longer. Best track I've made for a few months. Interesting thoughts and reflections appreciated. Free sex for the best reviews...
This track is an elaboration of dgalantic’s track “Starting Over 0172257.” It is almost entirely comprised of loops by other artists on looperman. The newsreel in the intro section is from public domain footage of the Vietnam War. Prince Fatty chimes later in with some words of wisdom. The track was sequenced with Mixtikl and edited in Audacity.
Loops from the following artists are included:
1. ThatJeffCarter’s guitar “feedback 197765”
2. three of Nightingale’s harmonica trills: “angels 0088377, inner light 0088361 and never and never 0088366”
3. Heavily fx’ed vocal excerpts from Eshar’s “7th Dimension 0002644”
4. Dcmack’s rhythm loops “2 bass drums 1- 0085449, 2- 0085446, and 4- 0085448.”
5. Steelyvibe’s choral wash “luno frunezo 0005719”
6. Nightingale’s guitar loop “diving deep 0043488”
7. Rasputin1963’s chorals “ soul ladies gospel riff 0088641 and reggae soul girls choir 0087693”
Genre: Cinematic
Tags: papico, Cinematic, Piano, feedback, choral washes, choir, harmonica, guitar, dgalantic- starting over, thatjeffcarter-feedback, dcmack- 2 bass drums 1,2 and 4, nightingale-angels, inner light, never and never, diving deep, eshar-7th dimension, steelyvibe- luno frunezo, rasputin1963-soul ladies gospel riff, reggae soul girls choir, Vietnam War newsreel
Description : So a new track for everyone. Im pretty impressed by this one, and would even place it higher than one of my best tracks, Angel And A Demon. However, I'm trying to decide whether or not I should put vocals to it. I have some in mjnd, but idk if itd be better to leave as is and keep it instrumental or not. Take a listen and let me know! Also, let me know if anything is too loud, still working on my mastering.
Description : NEVER STOP DREAMING!
Love what you do and do what you love.
Made out of Looperman Loops!

Sounds very epic and strong!
Seems a soundtrack from "The Mummy" or something like that!
I LOVE IT!!! :D
