hi, after being busy with publisher work i finally managed to get some new solo stuff done, this time its a melodic asian themed track which is supposed to be beautiful and majestic with a soaring melody but also epic and pompous with its thunderous tribal taiko drums and catchy piano rhytms. i wanted a theme that depicts a strong, honorable female warrior, i do hope you enjoy as this took quite some days to get sound like i wanted, esp. the percussion
