i actually really like the bongo samples! is that a loop? somehow adds an exotic flavor to the whole thing... which already reminds me of a jungle scene shot from a drone, so...

Interesting chord changes and an activating speed. Well done.

Definitely getting some airship vibes here. Great track smile

oh wow, got me in a unitard over here doing aerobics  big_smile
that change @ 1:30 is soooo nice

great vibrant energy and smooth evolution. well done!

Love the pace and feel of the main hook as it changes chords.  Like I'm on a speederbike flying thru the trees.  Always a fan of your progressions.  Excellent work!

Whewwww, this track goes hard from the get go. Super energetic and filled with determination. It also maintains that vibe consistently, managing to be dynamic without losing the momentum. Good job! Awesome battle music.

Such a cool progression! Love the energy between the drums and syncopated chords. I think that repeating rhythm makes things feel circular while the chord progression feels like its constantly moving "upward" to me.

I can definitely see this tune being used as the soundtrack for a racing game!!! Very very nice smile

Thanks! The bongo part actually isn't a premade loop, though it does loop a lot. wink

Thank you! I struggle with battle music, so I'm hoping to get some more serious practice with what's left of the year. We'll see if I can manage it.

Very glad to hear it. Thank you!

Nice prelude to an epic moment. Would be great if you insert some drum fills and rolls before some chord changes, for extra epic crescendo smile

Good point - I wish I'd had more time to think through the transitions that week. Thanks for the feedback, and for listening!

This is some weather channel level epic.

how'd you come up with them?

are you playing on a keyboard?  or picking notes one by one?  on a loop?  with a cat?  with a hat?  on a boat?  with a goat?
