I thought I would update you all on my current progress on the BSTLW bond fan film Im currently scoring. First off, I've attatched a snippet of the main title that Ive done and it is completely orignal (and free of any copyright material webmasters, dont worry). The song itself has a running time of 3:20 and at the moment is an instrumental until I can track down someone to do vocals. I have attatched a segment from the chorus, the french horn section after the gunshot will accompany the following lyrics:
"Bullets Speak Louder Than Words
Haven't you heard?
It's not as easy.... as it sounds.
Bullets Speak Louder Than Words
Two Shouts... A Shot
Sorry old boy.. you're luck's run out!"
Let me know what you think.
The score itself is going to be released on the web very shortly (the first cd anyway) and Ill post that info as it becomes available. This is high quality music as Ive gotten alot of new orchestral samples, I think you all will love what you hear. The first release of the music will be around 45 minutes or so including several variations of the Bond Theme. The second release (several months down the road) will contain the rest of the music from the film. I refuse to have another DAD scenario music wise, you will most definately be able to hear every note I played that is in the film as well as a few alternates.

What you seem to forget, KC, is that composing is not exactly the easiest job in the world, especially if you can't write music and compose by ear.
And yes, this brings me to a question I had in mind:
if you don't write your pieces, don't you map them out at least? I have really no idea how else you can do this.

I've just heard it Rich, very nicely done.Originally posted by Rich Douglas

It sounded much better though when I upped the bass on my sound card. The percussion sounded a tad tinny, but that could just be my ears.

lol.. As you can see, there will be alot of the Bond theme used. It looks like more than it really is. In many of those marked tracks, it's only a sparse section from the theme or a short motif from the theme and not the entire theme.
