Allrighty, thanks for all the votes!
It really doesn't matter to me what place I end up getting - unless I'm #1 :D , but I have to say that a vote of 5 is quite dissapointing. Even 6 is unreasnonable low to me.
I honestly must say that I don't think this tune is that mediocre. Oh well, each to his own taste I guess.
See you all around! :) | User Comment Submitted by 6R6 on 1 December 2012
After giving this some time I think it has grown to something better. But it's far from your best. ( Rottekongen! ) | User Comment Submitted by Kristian on 29 November 2012
Å faen... the melody! This is the good shit! | User Comment Submitted by OMP on 26 November 2012
thanks people. Yeah, must say it took some time.
@Dane: yeah - and in addition to that, the sink was actually in there for a while, as ring modulation on some of the higher notes in the lead.
A little over the top though - even for me

Becomes wizballish towards the end :) | User Comment Submitted by Dane on 25 November 2012
Yep, that's a lot of stuff in 3 channels, a bit like throwing everything but the kitchen sink at the listener. But who cares when it's just so melodic? | User Comment Submitted by Thierry on 23 November 2012 User Comment Submitted by psych on 23 November 2012 User Comment Submitted by Joe on 23 November 2012
Who could really say: I'm just into... whatever style and taste. This is great! | User Comment Submitted by Toggle on 23 November 2012
Awesome song! Must have been a lot of work. How do you put all this into 3 channels?! | User Comment Submitted by Soren on 23 November 2012
I love it, Ole... the man of a lot of melody! :-) | User Comment Submitted by OMP on 23 November 2012
OK, a few words about the tune.
It's more then anything a theme that's been churning around in my head for a while.
The whole tune is built up around the lead, so it's an intense thingie, true.
Maybe too much for some - obviously not for me
:P
It's certainly not a game-over tune, that's correct.
It's a triumphant piece, felt to be an ovation after achieving a higher score than anybody else. That day.
A game completion tune, if you will, a salute to you, and the game,
that you now have just finished.
Yup, the Game-Over tune is the one you heard BEFORE this one.
Screw that - you're dead - now it's time to celebrate your sorely deserved
SCORE OF HIGH.
and so you take that up there, and mix it with some Power Balladesqueness, a bit of game over, and not so subtle hints of guitarness, and there you have it.
Just what I was looking for when I heard the name of this compo.
Hee hee
and a merry day to the lot of you :) | User Comment Submitted by Linus on 23 November 2012
Solid jammy OMP tune in the Prosonix signature style. Tres decent! | User Comment Submitted by spider-j on 23 November 2012
Easy, smooth HS song. Although I miss sth. that makes it special. | User Comment Submitted by G-Fellow on 23 November 2012
Other tunes in this compo did touch my soul&heart more, this tune is good, but you did alot better tunes in the past years... mmmm Maybe a High-Score tune for some strange jump&run game... | User Comment Submitted by grasstust on 23 November 2012
Great stuff! I think it's just a bit too jolly for a game over song, and the melody a bit too intense too... I think it's more a "Congratulations, you made it!" song while the spaceship flies away after having destroyed the evil planet and so the hero returns to his loved one. And a lot of text explaining this while the song jams along. :) Anyway, a very nice tune and a big thumb up from me! | User Comment Submitted by Stinsen on 22 November 2012
Yeah, survived a few loops here as well, solid track :) | User Comment Submitted by Flex on 22 November 2012
Had to give it some 8 minutes to "open" it up.. Maybe the melody is jamming little too much for my taste but after that is said, this one is good solid OMP tune, no doubt.

edit: ah - you beat me to commenting. Thanks CreaMD :)
