Glacial Storm 5 (Preview)

After two long years in the making and over two hundred hours of work, my most ambitious project is finally ready to see the light of day. Feeling like a bittersweet farewell, I give you Glacial Storm 5. Download (53MB): https://drive.google.com/drive/folder... Lower quality (23MB): https://drive.google.com/drive/folder... It would seem that this decade-long winter is finally coming to an end, with the cold sun melting the last snow of the season. Everything has an end, and so does the winter. I began working on this song back in 2020, before I even knew it was going to be the fifth installment of the Glacial Storm series. It all started with the intro melody, which randomly came to me on a 'cold winter morning' back in 2020, after a few months of isolation due to the pandemic. Being more in contact with Classical Music over the last few years, especially being inspired by Gustav Mahler's work, it was soon evident that it had some potential to become a huge piece. And then, the direction this song would take was finally defined a few weeks later when I was improvising on my keyboard and completely fucked up the Glacial Storm theme while warming up... but those mistakes are reproduced note-by-note when the melody comes up on the 'Chills' section at around 06:30. And then it clicked. What started as a solitary melody was actually going to be the opener for the next (and potentially last) Glacial Storm. In my not so humble opinion, this song is beautifully orchestrated, evoking so many of the emotions I felt during the writing process, and ends with the bittersweet realization I had when finishing the song. Winter is almost over, and maybe it's time for me to cool down a little bit as well. While retaining the real drums element I used over the last few years, I also attempted to develop the orchestration part by using real samples from BBC Discovery, and it definitely helped me bring to life the vision I had for this piece. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do, and that you have some fun going for high scores on this song. A lot of work was put into charting as well. There are Expert charts for Guitar, Drums (4-Lane Pro) and Bass, each containing a Hard chart as well. Watch the Full Band preview on the following unlisted video:    • Glacial Storm 5 - Full Band & Difficulty P...   I would like to thank Frif and Lean for playtesting the Expert chart a few weeks ago and suggesting some adjustments that contributed to making this chart more accessible and fun to play. According to both of them, it's still harder than Megalodon. For the Hard chart, I tried to keep it reachable to my skill level. I'm not a top player but I think I'm not a mediocre one too, so it seemed like a good idea for me to tailor the Hard chart to my skill level. As for the Drums, everything I programmed on Get Good Drums is there on the Expert chart, so it's incredibly difficult as well. I tried my best to program the drums to be as close as possible to what a real drummer could perform, and I think it works fine. Sure, there are some really intricate and difficult fills here and there, but I don't think it's anything unreal, really. For the hard chart, I simplified some of the fills and removed the double bass drum aspect of the original chart. Finally, both Bass charts (Expert and Hard) have the exact same amount and disposition of notes. However, the Expert chart is meant to have an 'All Strums' sort of approach, which definitely makes it more difficult to play, especially the orange wall which occurs twice throughout the song. At the end of the day, I was just trying to make it more challenging and less boring to play, as I want to see a Full Band FC of this song someday and I didn't want the Bass player to fall asleep during the grinds. The Hard chart will be a better choice if you're looking for a more 'traditional' approach. I do believe I took some risks with the writing on this one, and I ultimately feel like it paid off. Glacial Storm 5 happened the way it was supposed to: completely natural, and without any pressure to continue the series. I have to say that my break from this game will probably extend to writing songs for it as well, and this feels like a good conclusion to my time being active in the community. Will there be another one? Never say never, but I don't feel like there will. If it ever does happen, it will have to be as natural as this one, and that means it would be years from now. Don't count on it, though. But I think this one will keep you all busy for a very long time. And I think that's about it. 2021 was great and I had a lot of fun for sure, but it's time for me to move on, at least for now. This song is very important to me and I think it's the perfect end to my contributions to the community. Thank you for having me, and I'll see you around.
