Eric,Synth Dream 1 sounds like a film/TV cue to me--a travel or transition scene, probably. I think the video game pieces usually have more melody, but I'm not the expert on that. Maybe electronica, but the drums are very "real", so it might take it out of that genre.Overall, great sound.Vince

Thanks Vince,Yes, I agree with you. The "real" drums & lite melodic aspect is making it difficult for me to peg it. It's a good tune. I'm just not sure what to do with it.I went to your site. Great writing. I like the Brazilian piece.Thanks,Eric

I agree with idea, sounds very film/dramatic. It is a hard one to classify. Up to the latin section, you could have added a crunchy guitar and called it a hybrid rock/orchestral. Latin section is reminescant of a jazz standard called Little Sunflower' (can't remember the author). Nice piece, thanks for posting it.

very cool sounding...you might get through on a suspenseful listing....I'm listening to"Stinger Bed 1"...I hope that's the right one....oops...OK I'm at Synth Dream 1.....this might be difficult to find the right listing....once you hit the latin section....I think you could go for some dance/electronica listings or even inspirational (maybe)..starting with the latin may be an idea....great work....hope this helps a little...vtbp
