Before The Squall - Seafaring Theme

Post by EricMck »

Hey all,

First time sharing my work here, it's got some fancy VSTs but I didn't really do any mixing magic (that stuff's still new to me). I was trying to step out of my comfort zone and make something that could would give movie trailer vibes (gotta get that Andalusian cadence in there).

... and I think you did a great job Eric!
Stick with it and it'll become more natural each time.
My only suggestion would be to get the melody line a little more prominent in the mix; it's kinda overshadowed the 'rolling waves' in your theme.
Nice job. 8)
