Hello, I just finished a cover of Star Wars' Imperial March... i couldn't stop at the end, so i continued with a slow version.. sort of like a "Lord Vader... " speech section... :)

I don't have a classical background, at first it sounds easy to do... but when i tried & record them.. some of the staccatto and syncopation sounds off... wow.. i never aware classical music are so tough to play.. you really have to be tight and in the pocket at every note... respect to those string & horn sections cats! so i did second takes for the main leads.. they're 4 piece horn sections...

AWESOME!!!
I like this version more than original (excuse me SW fans lol)!!!
The guitars are real or synths sounds? Great sounds, all instruments.

Sounds pretty cool overall, but theres one spot (which happens 2 or 3 times) where the melody is way off the original and it just sounds bad there. Like it goes too high or something.

But otherwise good job.

I like it. It is most definately a bit different than the original and the recording is a little dry. But overall cool. Im a huge Star Wars fan too. LOL
Good job buddy!

Thank you for all the feedback guys!! :)

Yeah, like i said i just do whatever i can remember in my head... should be more careful of doing covers that's very well known like this next time :P

Still learning doing orchestra sounds guys... but i think i'm on the right track.. i'll try some more...
