Downers' Own LotR Inspired Music - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

MatthewM · 04-18-2007, 09:45 PM

Hey everyone, I've created some Lord of the Rings inspired music with this recording program I just downloaded, I'm no pro with it, I literally just got it about a week or two ago. But I wanted to get my LotR tribute out there, so from what I knew of the program I created these tracks. They are different. They aren't exactly orchestrated tunes.

Take a listen at: www.myspace.com/seekthesword

"Lament for Boromir" is the oldest one, and I've had this riff and some of the lyrics for almost 2 years, at least, and I finally got this program to record it with. It is my Lament for my favorite character.
"The Return of the King" is a melody that just came to me.
"The Way Is Shut" isn't exactly a LotR related song...and you can make what you will of "Over the Sea".

Let me know what you think!

Thanks

I think this hugely resembles Nogrod's thread Downers' Own music. Maybe these should be combined.

Anyway, MatthewM, I think that seems cool but unfortunately I can't listen that on the school computer. Keep doing LotR-related music, it's great that some musical people have a love for Tolkien's work and use them in their things!

Thanks very much for the link, Lommy! I'll merge the two threads as soon as this message has been seen here.

I stumbled across this in iMusic searching for the Last March of the Ents movie score.
