Fine fusion of keyboards and strings early and great climaxes later make this a really easy piece to listen to. Great climax around the one minute mark. Good work.

Wow! I truly had no idea where this was going, in a good way. Nice build into a high-paced synth driven ride. Just when I thought the track was over you stepped it back down into a nice, smooth subtle piano outdo, nice touch! Overall great job and I hope to hear more.

Hahaha, ok so this sounds like something from a video game or something. I'm envisioning something like Terminator for the Sega CD - its got that sort of... retro quality of sound about it. I appreciated the evolution that the song goes through. I have to say, really liked that brass lead in the second half. I am a sucker for a brass synth lead and this has a nice one.! :D

The song had a nice melody and the transitions and mood changes worked well together. I thought the keyboard work was exceptional--so was everyone in the band for that matter. I liked the orchestral hits and some of the effects as well. I especially liked the song when it picked up in the middle--it was quite energetic.

Nice concept. Well played and composed. Would sound good produced with BIG guitars and drums.

Very cool intro, Puts me in mind of Keith Emerson, really sounds great!! High marks for this composition, very well done, very well played

I Y'all like Yes, Asia, E.L.P., Rock Operas etc. Your Gonna LOVE THIS ONE. I wish I lived next door to this Keyboard Player. We could write some awesome Songs.

I think if you did this tune with just an acoustic grand and a cello accompaniment it would do it a lot more justice.
