    That's so good, and it fits around the sounds in the original so well, especially the bells at the end! Love how the tempo slows significantly, and then the bells are even slower.

    it reminds me a little bit of the scores to some of the Louis l'Amour books that have turned into TV shows and movies over the years. Which is not really a bad thing.

    Watching you compose this was super inspiring. You make it look easy! I would love to have you explain some of your chordal choices with regards to feeling and emotion. Why did you chose this chord over this one, or why did this progression come out when you were improvising. I think that's something I could use a bit more of an understanding of in future videos. What are your go to progressions/chords or tricks to convey an emotion.
    This is great though, i really enjoyed it

    So nostalgic! You are so amazing at this. The music reminds me of the soundtrack for A Night in the Woods (specifically the soundtracks for the town/bridge/house). Wondering what exactly is giving off the nostalgic feeling in these soundtracks?

  • @Grigoriy1996
    @Grigoriy1996 Рік тому +3

    Amazing! The only thing I'm unsure of is the key of music in relation to the church bells. Now it sounds as if the church will play a dark and unsettling role in the cartoon because of the key mismatch. If the bells were part of the harmony it would have quite a different effect.
