Mystical treasure (orchestral track)

[Hyjkar]

Hi everbody,

As my first(!) post here, here's a short track that utilizes mainly woodwinds and strings.

What do you guys think of the song? Feedback appreciated!

Very nice orchestration. The celesta and mallets are quite effective. Is it intended as game music or something else?

Hi and thanks!
Yeah, I wrote that piece while I was working on a horror short film soundtrack. While the track is very movie-like, I still think that it would work better in a video game context (old school point and click adventure game?) for some reason.

Very nice mastering of the orchestra (almost feels real). What tools did you use?

Thanks!
The only thing I did in the mastering stage was adding Cubase 6's reverence plug-in and modified it's Viennese hall preset to my needs. For some reason, I didn't use eq in the master channel at all, maybe due to the simplicity of the composition. I use mainly EastWest's sample libraries for instruments.
