Love this, awesome "foley sounds" in the beginning, sounds like a dragon crunching in the snow.  Nice tom fills also, I could almost feel the dragon coming in the air tonight Drum jam in the end is pretty sweet.  I'm liking this cinematic direction you've taken with a few of your submissions lately.  Maybe I'll make a flying serpent song next week, if I'm not dragon my ass!

Dragons are cool.  I'll have to see if I can do a dragon-themed track at some point this year.  Love the driving percussion near the end of the track.  Sounds like the dragon's worshippers are involved in a mad drum circle to summon it.

That first sound that comes in at the very beginning really does feel like a hearing a dragon soar through the sky!

I think its interesting how most cultures of the world have a mythology involving dragons and they're all distinct but share similarities. Where da dragons be hiding?

Super intense rhythmic section on this track!

This dragon has a sweet drum set!  Those tom and snare fills gave me some visions of Dragonheart flying amongst da mountain peaks.. but with headphones and a beanie on to stay warm of course.

OH YOU'RE RIGHT!!! THE LUNAR YEAR IS COMING THIS WEEK. I like very much that beating heart that is the core of this track. The sense of festivities from 1:10, including that crash that sounds like a chinese crash, is good. Is that crackers that I hear? Percussive festivities and smoke in the air, digging the avalanche.

nice momentum throughout, draws me right in!
feels like a battle-cry, makes me bravely psychotic about the year!

Hey thanks! Glad you liked the foley sounds. I grabbed that sample, was supposed to be wings flapping, it sounds more like crunching, but I think it works to help tell a story. I jammed on drums for too long, lol, when I heard those tom fills I thought the same thing, the dragon is coming in the air tonight! Loving your creations lately, such cool visuals! You certainly aren’t dragon your ass

I agree dragons are super cool. The worshippers are indeed summoning the dragon, and the dragon appreciates it. I added images to this effect in the video I just posted above.  I’d love to hear you do a dragon song, I bet you’d tell a great story! Thanks for listening!

Hey thanks, glad you thought so. I’m tempted to add those “wind” like sounds to songs often actually   I guess I like the thought of music outside on windy days.

So interesting! I went and read up a bit more on some dragon lore, there is wide range but with lots of similarities. I hope they come out of hiding some day! Thanks for the comment!

Haha, I love the thought of a dragon on a drum set and Dragonheart with a beanie and headphones, thanks for that! I should have done an AI image of those for the video I just posted actually. Thanks for listening and comment!

Dragonmania is here this year! Glad you liked the drum-fest, thanks!

Thanks! I was trying to be bit cinematic. Glad you liked the drum end. I want to end songs with crazy drum jams often, but this seemed like a good chance to do it.

Yess! Stimulating the inner dragon is a good thing to do, glad this helped

Thank you! A festive celebration  with lots of drums was in order for the new year! Ha, sounds like crackers indeed. Was a sample of flapping, but sounds like crackers, or snow or something the way it ended up for sure. Now I want go eat crackers, and record them too!

YES, a battle cry, I dig that. Thanks for listening. Bravely psychotic about the year sounds like a dragon year mindset

Thanks you! Happy Lunar New Year to you! Love this gif. I want to meet this dragon!

Glad you liked the drum effects, I was trying a few new things and hoping it would land. Thanks very much for coming on the wild ride!

Thanks for listening everyone!
A week late, but I got some visuals up for this. I wanted to see some cool dragons so did some quick Dall E images and FX in CapCut.

hahaha, bong rip intro ftw. I hear it now, going to have to become a staple. After some serious rips, things get heavy! Maybe Bonham, one of my faves, was a actually a dragon?!
