When I started to record the song I intented to make it in the style of Vangelis.
But the longer I worked on it, the song changed the style.
The final version has not the dramatic touch of Vangelis but a more easy-listening style.
But the main lead sounds are still in the Vangelis style.
I used Sylenth1 for the lead synth sound and the horn.
The strings are HalionOne, the bass is Hypersonic2 and groove agent2 is on the drums.
Please listen to the song and write me your critics:

Yes I can hear the Vangelis quite clearly but I think he'd let the initial tune breathe some more.
Nice. Horn sound is really good.

Hi Benedict,
thanks for your comment.
As I said, I intended not to make on "original" Vangelis sound. The song has only
some Vangelis elements. Vangelis would make more filter modulation on the sounds.
The song is more in the style of seventies filmmusic of France like "Bilitis".

Hey there is no real bad in learning the big V's style as so long as you can branch out then you have a strong arsenal of techniques.
I enjoyed this and the last one I heard.
Keep it up.
