Øyvind Skald Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 (edited) The song is from the Norwegian Church Songbook (Norsk Samlebok) And the lyrics is with 3 different numbers. Number 1, 278a and 278b. I use the 278b as the main melody, that is a folk tune from Mo I Rana. The fugue theme is the first song in the book and is a folk tune from Romedal. And I end the song with the folk melody from Ørsta, number 278a. The lyric is one of the greatest lyrical works from Norway, and it originally has 16 verses. But the first version has 3 verses, and the 278 has 8 verses, so I made the song with the 8 verses. Vocals are not done jet and are just the synth melody. This is just the writing prosess of the song, and I might need to rerecord a lot to make in more pleasing. Especially the guitar leads, so this is just the writing of the melodies for now. But hey. I don’t know what to do with it, so it might not even get vocal recorded. I hope that you don’t fall asleep but stay through. I deleted the link to the fist version, as i will stick to the new one. I have edited out some of the chromatic stuff in 4th fugue part. So it is more in the chords and not as i might have intended, that the highest guitar lead was suposed to be out of the harmonys of the others, But I don't think it worked. So this part is at 4:55 to 5:03. All edited in Melodyne in CbB... Edited March 24, 2019 by ØSkald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Oister Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Hi, Oyvind, This is a very cool epic progressive metal instrumental!? Great composition and arrangement, and all of the instrumentation and playing was really well done. Fantastic guitar tones and excellent guitar playing, and lots of cool, complex melodies with twists and turns to keep the listener's interest. You've also got a powerful sounding, clear and wide, modern metal mix that sounds perfect for the genre. Great work, powerful piece of music!? Best Wishes, Bob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Øyvind Skald Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 Thanks guys. Just for fun I have "analyzed" it... Red is the first melody of the folk song used for the fugues. Blue is the second part of it. Green is the first part of the folk song used in the verses. Orange is the first melody of the song used for the fugues, but are broken up to fit the main fugue part in the bass. But I bet you heard that ...
