Dark Angels Arise

An extended version of one of the themes I did for a film recently.

What did you use for the choir? Is that samples? Or a library like the East West Choir? This sounds good. I'd love an extra long version of this!

Nicely done. Even in the minor key this sounded too holy to be evil/dark, but the cinematic quality is superb!

I'm also curious about the chanting; sounds like Latin―are they saying something in particular? 

(Imagines a portentous choir booming out "LOREM IPSUM...")

A scene of grand and sacred precedence! you have a brilliant sense of nuance and control over dramatic effects heart

Thanks everyone.  I'll get round to replying and listening to track hopefully this week. I've been crazy busy.  Appreciated as always!

It was a Kontakt childrens choir instrument.  Liberis Choir by 8dio.  Pretty happy with it seeing it made it's way onto a film already.  And thanks!!

Cheers andl that would nail the scene then as the character is super twisted but he thinks he's on a mission for god.  I was going for a form of heavenly ascension yet the character is messed up.  smile

I do believe it is Latin but I just chose what sounded good!  I have a selection of words/syllables to chose from.

Thank you so much!  smile

Def has that strong cinematic feel like I'm watching the next Dan Brown novel to movie. smile

And if only you knew the character I was writing for.  Let's just say his secret identity was called Necro.  So wrong!  lol
