Landed myself a copy of Spitfire Audio’s “BBC Symphony Orchestra Discover” sample pack. Such beautiful, high-fidelity samples! Looperman artist Eendee’s “Scarydrums” loop doesn’t sound frightening at all when partnered with the fanfare tones of the BBC Symphony Orchestra.
Here’s an action-adventure themed cinematic piece featuring energetic percussion loops, regal french horns, punchy brass sections and sprinkles of cinematic SFX.
A cinematic piece that starts out with a low, droning synth before a tribal rhythm sets the pace. This one came out sounding like a title sequence for a modern action-adventure game.
Here’s a soft, relaxing cinematic piece with just a hint of melancholy. Built around a beautiful acoustic guitar sample from Sampletank on the iPad, accompanied by a string section backing a solo cello.
Here’s a short cinematic piece built with freely available samples, including the robust pack from Virtual Playing Orchestra. Done in the style of a trailer for an action/adventure movie. I’d love to see it put to some cool visuals! If you do, drop me a line! 🙂
Whenever my partner & I watch Enterprise, I find myself regularly skipping through the opening title sequence. I guess I’m hardwired to expect orchestral music in a Star Trek theme. So he suggested that I compose my own replacement for it. And here it is.
