"Lonely Horizon"

I thought you all might be interested in hearing an independent piece I've done. I was stuck somewhere and bored the other night so I began coming up with a melody in my head, and then played it out and toyed with it on the keyboard. Later, when I finally got back home, I wrote the whole thing up on my computer, and I'm quite proud of how it turned out. I call it "Lonely Horizon" -- it came to me during early stages of writing it out.

Click here to listen to "Lonely Horizon."

I hope you all enjoy it!

Very nice. That's a great melody that builds up beautifully. Towards the start, it actually reminds me of "Divide" by Tiamat and it does sound slightly gothic.

It's not over-egged either, just right in length, although the ending is slightly cheesey. It sounds like the type of song that would be hard to end any differently though.

He just kept talking in one long incredibly unbroken sentence moving from topic to topic so that no one had a chance to interrupt him it was really quite hypnotic.

Thanks Jez. Sorry the ending doesn't meet with your tastes... I experimented with a few but that was the best way I could do it.

Not at all, the ending sounds right. It's just kinda how I expected it to be, that's all.

Ah. Well, I hope it didn't take away from your overall enjoyment of the piece!
