So, I've been not doing music for quite a while. Had to do university and write pony. So that's that.
Anyway, you probably want to read about this song. This aptly titled theme is inspired by a scene in the latest of the graphic novels. It's the one involving Mace, Ravat, a Sandman and french cheese.
The music is somewhat inspired by Hiroyuki Sawano's work, especially with the emphasis on the bass, and is otherwise more of a suite. It follows the the a reprise of the original Sandman theme I had for Volume 1, then goes over to a battle version of Mace's theme, before we get to Ravat's theme, which is played on both a solo cello (for maximum annoyance) and on an e-guitar (for maximum badassery). There's also drums.
Hurray.

The style of the music is very clashy for my taste. The electronica and the "electri-classical" keep butting heads to me. I know of the scene you're trying to portray and it feels very backwards. Three minutes in should be about where they discover Wisp's little... "Crazyspace" if I'm not mistaken. Then following that is the battle between Mace and the original sandman. This is what catches me. The drama-dipped portions of the music seem to hang around the beginning of the piece. Around the time Mace would be exploring the underground of Theophanies. Entering the church and all that. I feel as if putting a more majestic classical tune in the beginning, easing slowly into a clashing underlayer of electronica would be more suspenseful and fitting (Keep in mind this is my personal opinion ^^;). Then, after that, a fade out into the creepy, dollhouse music for Wisp's hideaway. Suddenly erupting into the clashing electronica/electri-classical that you have in the beginning parts.
There were some parts of the tune where it suddenly cut out, leaving me hanging onto the last note. While that does provide an air of suspense, doing it too many times can confuse or "trick" the listener into thinking the song is over. Sometimes, this can cause someone to feel like the song is much longer and more bland than it truly is. It also makes some portions of the tune feel repetitive.
The pros, however, very much outweigh the cons. The tunes you have designed sync very well with the scene that you are trying to portray. All you need to do is reorganize where they all go. I love the minor key you have this in. Very foreboding and suspenseful. I'm sure this was a fun piece to write and I do look forward to more.
All in all, this is a very well done piece. I give it HALF [3.5] out of 5. Mostly because of the order of the music. Keep up the good work!

Uhm, actually, this song is just one scene.
Basically:
Sandman battle 0:00-1:26
Ravat talking until he gets coins to his face and then kicks Mace around 1:27-2:53
Ravat talking about what happened at the orphanage 2:54-4:22
Mace trying to escape 4:22-5:25
Ravat standing up again 5:26-END
That's how I conjured it up at least. Otherwise thanks for the critique. I'll keep it in mind.
