Topic: Cesare The Somnambule - new tune

My latest beeper track for this new game.
Bit of an overture

Game is based on the 1920s b&w horror film 'The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari'

Hope you aren't going to hate me for saying this, but... I'm not really a fan of this one. Sounds like you wanted to make something energetic and uplifting while also introducing a bit of that classic horror vibe. That combination doesn't really work for me, it's like it's trying too many things at the same time. Sorry mate sad

Well that's it UTZ ! Our friendship is over and I shall never speak to you again smile

Seriously though, I see what you're saying but what actually happened was I used a load of unfinished tracks and strung them into a sort of overture-like track hence the different styles and tempos.
The track plays before the game starts and never again. It also has parts of 'Bela Lugosi's dead' and 'I'm in love with a German film star' to go with the goth theme of the ingame AY music (cure tracks). I also chucked in a bit a 3/4 haunted amusement park type music as that reflects a particular part of the game. There's also some Numan near the beginning, just because I liked it smile
