Today, as part of his series of commissions for “Roleplay is Magic” Darkspeen brings us this short but lovely piece! Focusing a lot around the soothing sounds of rain at night, this song is perfect to just relax and forget about time as you play or just chill!

Music has the power to influence others with a variety of emotions. While some evoke optimism and jubilation, some may elicit desperation and melancholy, especially when we lose someone critical and reliable to us. We cannot deny that farewells are inevitable, but what can we do about them? Yashn decided to capture the sentiments and recollections associated with them in his new composition, “Farewell to an Angel”. Saying goodbye to our close ones can be daunting, and often we feel overwhelmed with despair and hopelessness. As we move from denial to acceptance and from encounter to separation, we often experience a range of emotions, much like the violin solo traversing a spectrum of pitches at the beginning of the music. While there is still time we can spend with our loved ones, take a moment to listen to this splendid track and remember that music is always here with us amid difficult times, accompanying us on our journey.

As part of his Nightwatch Series Elias Frost brings us this banger of an orchestral tune, featuring heavy drums, chanting, singing, and lots of strings and other lovely instruments! This piece really stands out as being an epic orchestral track that conveys a darker, sinister theme and would fit perfect into a trailer for a movie! Definitely give this track a listen cause it’s filled with all manners of interesting sounds and despite being over five and a half minutes long it never gets boring!

If “jungle” weren’t a breakbeat-infused genre, it might sounds something like this! Dashie takes a walk in the woods here with this rhythmically laid-back orchestral piece laden with some folky woodwind and string instruments carrying the melodies of the song. Perfect for a jaunty jungle adventure!

Orchestral music often tends to be very emotive, from epic orchestral soundtracks depicting grand adventures through space and time, to more peaceful tracks that paint beautiful landscapes in the listener’s mind. No matter the style or mood, perhaps the most impactful music of this genre is that which speaks to the heart and tells a story to the troubled soul. Red Spark’s new track, “Fairytale,” exemplifies this idea. Inspired by a Kirin fairytale, the track begins with quiet strings and delicate piano, making it easy to imagine a lonely traveler faintly silhouetted against a vast and barren landscape. A sudden burst of intense brass follows, suggesting a climactic moment in the traveler’s journey – perhaps, a rush of overwhelming loneliness, or intimidation by the magnitude of the wilderness, or fear of never reaching her destination. The intensity dissipates with the entrance of soft woodwinds and oscillating key changes, creating a meditative soundscape of wonder and awe. As you enjoy this gorgeous track, let it inspire a journey of your own imaginings.
